Rita Aero has completely revolutionized the concept of the Walt Disney World vacation, opening up the Magic Kingdom to fun-loving vacationers everywhere--singles, couples, business travelers, families with children--and becoming the ultimate authority on planning the perfect Walt Disney World getaway. While Rita's book is also perfect for the "traditional" Walt Disney World family, it emphasizes the infinite grown-up pleasures of Disney World--scrumptious restaurant reviews, strategic hotel selection, tips to beat the maddening crowds. New this year there will be a section about Universal Studios Orlando. Rita Aero offers invaluable tips on how and when to avoid crowds, where and when to eat, and masterful packing tips, all packaged in her elegant, usable 2-color interior design. And Aero's vaunted website will expand the utility of the book by giving readers to-the-minute updates on attractions and money-saving offers. Rita Aero's Walt Disney World for Adults will be the guide for young-at-heart Walt Disney World vacationers.

5.0 out of 5 stars
"Amazing" could be altered to "Remarkable"....,
This review is from: Rita Aero's Walt Disney World : The Essential Guide to Amazing Vacations (Paperback)
I own Rita's 3rd edition from 2 years back. She has surpassed the previous edition by far. Disney changes at the speed of light and all the information could never be captured and published in a book. However, Rita has organized the most up to date information in an easy to follow format that anyone could use. Her guidebook is clear..has a great rating system (E.A.R.S awards)..and is packed with exciting tips that even the most Disney conscientious explorer could overlook! What isn't depicted in the book is carried over onto the connected website. Her website is another great source for more Disney info and general camaraderie.A must buy book for any Disney World lover...!

5.0 out of 5 stars
It got even better!,
By Valerie Holcomb (South Bend, Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rita Aero's Walt Disney World : The Essential Guide to Amazing Vacations (Paperback)
I thought nothing could top Rita Aero's previous guides, but her most recent edition did just that. Unlike Birnbaums and Sehlingers guides, which remain the same year after boring year, Aero's newest guide is completely new and fresh! She threw out all the old star ratings and replaced them with clever EARS awards. Apparently she gathered the top Disney experts and formed a panel much like the Academy Awards, except they vote on the best attractions, hotels, restaurants, etc. The emotional age ratings are also completely new and expanded from the previous 4 icons to an intuitive gradient type system. Birnbaums has no ratings at all and Sehlingers ratings never seem to change. The book's navigation is all new with easy-to-find self indexing tabs. The reviews are completely rewritten into columnar formatting. I didn't care much for the way the text used to span the entire page, so this is a very welcomed improvement. I also LOVE the new charts and maps! There are so many new cool features to write about, but I'm preparing for our next trip to WDW, so I should stop before I write virtual reams. Oh, I almost forgot, her website has already saved me nearly $900 on my upcoming trip! The online community there is the absolute best! Val
