For readers exhausted by the promotional fluff and brochure-speak that characterizes most travel guides, here's a fresh guide that offers an insider's look at one of the most popular family destinations. Maps.
If you want to read the same old sugary sweet... about Disney, buy another guide book. The title says it all- irreverent. If you don't want to hear the negative things, don't buy the book. Contrary to the other reviews of this book, I really enjoyed it. It was helpful, hilarious, and a breath of fresh air. I used 3 other guide books for my trip which all gave the same exact info. This book gives you the real goods. I planned a very short stop-over in Orlando, and quite frankly the thought of trying to prioritize which of the hundreds of attractions to check out made me ill. Not only that, but I didn't want to waste my hard earned money only to be disappointed. Let's face it, Disney and Orlando are not cheap. This book let me know what to expect and helped me to make informed decisions. I never buy just one guide book- this was definitely a good supplement. I plan on seeing if there is an irreverent guide available for my next destination.
A refreshing change from the usual...

Going to Disney without buying into it

This book is for those traveling to Disney World who aren't exactly comfortable with the hype and the world-homogonization that Disney exudes. Well-organized with intersting and sometimes off-beat budget-savy suggestions. The ace-the-park info isn't much different than any other book.
