This book contains lots of valuable information about Universal. There is lots of information about Disney, but when it comes to Universal, good clear information is hard to find. Not only does the book give ride details, it also reviews the restaurants and onsite hotels. It was very useful when planning our upcoming trip. I would recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Universal Orlando.

Incredibly thorough and useful guide to the Universal Orlando Themepark experience!!! Definitely a must-read for first time planners as well as veteran planners. With so many books claiming to detail the themepark experience in Orlando that focus almost entirely on Walt Disney World, it's nice to read one specifically on Universal Orlando as opposed to a chapter or two at the end of a book.

I found this book to be very helpful and without the anxiety producing, "commando" type information found in some other books. We were provided with the information we needed to plan an awesome vacation for our family. We wish we would have invested in this book before our first trip to Universal Orlando as we found we missed several attractions and shows we would have liked to visit. This time, thanks to the information in this guide, we won't miss a thing. I wouldn't recommend going to Universal Orlando without it!

This is the only book that you need to read before going to Universal Orlando. Extremely detailed info re parks, hotels and restaurants. I like how the guide is updated every year, no problems with outdated info.

Well, I have tried all of the guides and I must say Universal Orlando, 2007 Edition: The Ultimate Guide to the Ultimate Theme Park Adventure (Universal Orlando)is the best out of all the guidebooks I have read and used for the Orlando area. It is evident she is hands on in gathering her information and has inside resources in comparison with the other books I have used. We are frequent visitors and still would not go with out the updated version of this book. I highly recommend this guidebook for a fun and memorable Universal Orlando experience!

I am going to Universal this summer, I haven't been since 2000 and I was so happy to buy this book. I received it about a month ago, read it cover to cover and now I'm rereading it and even highlighting a lot of very useful info he gave!!! He gave very good advice on the best seats for all the shows and even on most of the rides. He also described the rides...without giving anything away! Lastily, I loved his reviews on the restaurants. Great book! Buy it, you won't be sorry!

I bought this book before my first trip to Universal and it was a life saver! I have a autistic son and need to be fully prepared on what to expect. Everything was exactly as stated in the book and our week went perfectly! Thank you!

I think that this is the best guidebook that covers Universal and one of the best guidebooks period. It helped us tremendously when we first visited the Universal parks and we continue to use it as a handy reference. It's well written and fun to read too. I heartily recommend it.

You can't go wrong with this book. Very up-to-date and thorough information. It is the best we have found on the market. If you are going to Universal, you must have this guide!

Before my recent trip to Unverisal Studios Orlando, I had no idea where to start planning or what to expect. I tried looking for a book that could guide me. Unfortuantely, most books out there for the Orlando area are primarily Disney related and have only a small section on Universal Studios. I found this book and bought it. It's great! A whole book dedicated to the ins and outs of Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, City Walk, the 3 on-site hotels. I couldn't put it down. Very in-depth and well written. I highly suggest it to anyone planning a trip to USO, whether it's one day or a week.
