Re: Which is the Best Disney Planning Book?
I think online is pretty much as good as any book and cheaper. Plus, you get actual unbiased guests opinions. If you want REALLY good reviews on everything tho...try the Walt Disney World Zaggat Guide. I bought the 2007 one for 75 cents off half.com. When I am jonesing for some WDW I read it =)

Re: Which is the Best Disney Planning Book?
We really like the Unofficial Guide. The Passporter is very good. But I was really impressed with the Complete Walt Disney World!! I'm guessin' we'll end up taking all three with us, which sounds pretty redundant, but they all have good stuff in them!

Um, already HAVE all three. The question is, should we TAKE all three with us when we go?!   Oh, and we have the Birnbaum WDW Dining Guide (2008, of course) And the Hidden Mickeys book. Oy vey. I'll need an entire suitcase just for the books.

Re: Which is the Best Disney Planning Book?
I get the Unofficial Guide and it is pretty solid from top to bottom as portable reference...
But... Without a doubt I have gotten some of the best tips and ideas from fellow MouseBuzzers right here on this site!

Re: Which is the Best Disney Planning Book?
I think that the Unofficial Guide is a must read for a great WDW trip. Trying to collect all of that info online would be extremely time consuming! For $15, it is soooooo worth it!

Re: Which is the Best Disney Planning Book?
I agree with others who said Unofficial Guide and Passporter. I got the passporter last year for my trip and plan on getting the 2008 for my Aug trip because it kept things organized and all together. I actually looked at my one for last year to help plan my 2008 trip. I have the 2006 Unofficial Guide and use that more as a reference.
