I had heard about this book online and ordered it for the reviews of the different shore excursions and I am really pleased. I have cruised on the Magic, and I found that I totally agreed with what they advised. We will be doing the 7-day western cruise on the Wonder and I found a ton of valuable information. This is an excellent book whether you have cruised or not. I would recommend you get this book before you make reservations- especially if you are not familiar with the cabin choices and deck plans, etc. If you are already booked- the onboard tips and shore advise is priceless! Excellent publication!

I was a bit sceptical since the author is a devoted Disney lover, but I have been quite impressed. We haven't gone on the cruise yet (we have another few months), but the book has been a wealth of information and a huge help in planning the other pieces to the cruise. Great investment if you've booked a Disney cruise!

This is the best book on the market if you're planning a Disney Cruise in the future. There's more information offered than any of the other books I've purchased for our former cruises. It offers views from more than one person, including a child's point of view. I was so impressed by the information in this book I also bought the PassPorter's Field Guide to Walt Disney World. Both of these books will go with us on our trip in the near future. The only thing I didn't like was the photos, no color, so it's hard to tell just how beautiful the ship is if you haven't seen it before.

We recently went on the West Coast Disney Cruise in August and had a wonderful time. This was our first cruise, so we did not know much about cruising, Disney, etc. The book was well written and gave the pertinent information that was needed to make our trip successful and stress free. I highly recommend it and by reading it, it will make you excited for your trip!!

We first discovered this book while researching a 3 day cruise in 2003. It definitely takes a lot of the questions away. It makes new changes clear. I just wish it had more of the new Costa Maya cruise we'll be going on in 2006.

Read cover to cover in Preparation for my very first cruise. This book has covered every detail. What to pack, what to expect from the ship and what to expect on the shore excursions even what the terminal looks like when we arrive at the port. Both shore excursions I have booked,(BEFORE BUYING THIS GUIDE) are rated very low...One even said don't bother. I'm hoping they were wrong about them. Excellent, Thourough book!

For family vacations which involve a certain investment ($$$) I like to know what to look for. This book does an excellent job of detailing the Disney Cruise ship and helped us plan our vacation from departure through the shore excursions and our return.

I'm a netizen, so my #1 source for travel info would normally be the web. Unfortunately, you can't easily take it with you on a cruise (well, if you do, it isn't cheap or quick by my experience). Someone gave me a copy of this book and I was amazed at the level of detail the Marx's provide. This would be an excellent reference before and while taking a cruise.

I have only been on one cruise (not Disney), but I find the type and amount of information they provide completely appropriate. Now that we have a child, it will save us a lot of fumbling around trying to figure things out. They tell how and when to get reservations for good restaurants on board, how to handle child care, and what kid activities to check out. Groovy!

We just returned from the Disney cruise in California and were very pleased with the detailed information offered in this guide. They had lots of tips which were extremely useful on the Disney cruise. Highly recommended.
