Re: Need help on a book ....
They're all so very different, but the two I seem to use the most are Passporter and The Unofficial Guide. Passporter has great info and it keeps me organized, that's the one I use constantly for any upcoming trips. The Unofficial Guide has more information in it than you could ever use, but I love their writing style and reference it frequently. If I could only buy one (heaven forbid) I would choose Passporter since it's both reference and organizer. Have fun choosing!

Re: Need help on a book ....
Wow, thanks.
I was looking at the 'Complete Guide' and I'm realy intested so when we (DM and I) tried to add the book to our basket, (Amazon) it wouldn't allow us  We are trying again tommorow morning (It's 9pm in Scotland) but at this moment in time I'm looking up the Passporter. Thanks Again!

Re: Need help on a book ....
Some people love the Passporter, others the Unofficial Guide. I swear by personal research

Re: Need help on a book ....
I tend to use Passporter, mainly for the maps and planning the days. It has a wealth of info on the resorts, park, transportation, etc. If you do use the Passporter and are making ressies with a towncar company, Tiffany Towncar usually has a coupon in the back of the book for about $5 off your round trip.
We did use The Unoffical Guide on our last trip. It has great day planning for each park, must sees, etc.
