Product Description
With four major theme parks and 20 hotels packed into 47 square miles, planning a trip to Disney World can be a daunting task. This indispensable travel planner simplifies the process, keeping travelers on schedule, within budget, and ready for fun. Each of the four major parks — Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom — gets an in-depth layout, complete with full-color fold-out maps and a description of every ride and attraction. Exhaustive profiles of Disney-owned resort hotels feature detailed maps, color photos, and room layouts. The guide also covers all of the park’s 300+ dining options. A concise, up-to-date review with average meal cost is provided for each venue, from full-service restaurants to counter-service eateries. Fourteen handy organizer pockets store maps, passes, receipts, itineraries, notes and to-do lists.

Best Disney guidebook, for the inexperienced as well as the ultra-experienced! January 20, 2010

The Passporter had held the spot of favorite Disney guidebook in my household for years! While we own several other Disney guidebooks, the Passporter is the one that we use primarily for planning. The detail in it is great, with brief descriptions of every ride, attraction, and restaurant. The different types of ratings (such as how children will like a certain ride or how the Passporter online community rates a particular restaurant) are helpful in deciding whether a particular attraction or eating place is the right one for my family. The full-color pictures are very nice, even if they aren't able to include actual Disney characters in the shots. I always complain about other books that they either have all words and no fun pix, or that it's all about the fancy pictures with no real content; the Passporter is a great mix of both, with enough pictures to provide some color and add some excitement, but with plenty of space for the real content I'm looking for.
My favorite part of the Passporter is actually several parts: the many parts that actually help me plan my trip to Disney World, rather than just reading about it. Worksheets in various sections of the book allow me to pencil in my plans and easily erase and rewrite as those plans inevitably change. Checklists in the Touring, Feasting, and Making Magic sections allow me to mark the rides, attractions, and restaurants I'm interested in. The 14 handy pockets at the back of the book help me make notes about our travel plans and daily schedules, and they're great during the trip itself, for jotting notes as we go through the park and for saving small souvenirs, receipts, Fast Passes, and other easily misplaced items.
I recommend this book both for first-time Disney trippers and for experienced Disney goers. First-timers will find the detail of the book very helpful in determining what is most important to see, as well as providing great tips and tricks for how to accomplish this to-do list. Returning Disney fans will love the detail to which they can plan the perfect trip, using the many tools and worksheets provided in the book. And everyone will love having the book in the park, to find the best route around the parade that is blocking your path, or to pick a different quick-service restaurant when your first choice is out of the chocolate cake you were craving, or to stow away a Mickey-shaped-confetti memento of your special dinner with Pooh at the Crystal Palace.
We don't get to go to Disney World every year. But when we do get to take a trip to our "Happy Place", the Passporter helps us have everything so well planned that we have a great visit every time!
Excellent tWDW travel planner February 26, 2010

I just received my 2010 Passporter and I love it!! It is a wonderful guidebook and planning tool which I would recommend to anyone planning a trip to Walt Disney World. The colorful pages, maps, pockets, and more make this planner amazing. On our trip a few months ago to WDW I purchased a rather pricey watch. When it recently stopped working I was able to pull out my 2009 Passporter and easily locate the receipt. Thank you Passporter!!
Absolute BEST guide to Walt Disney World February 26, 2010

I have been using the Passporter Guide Books for many years. As a frequent traveler and reader, I think I own every Disney guide available. Passporter wins, hands down, every time. This guide book is unique in that it is more than just information. It is a way to plan and a way to journal. My yearly Passporters have become mini scrapbooks of travel memories. This book is updated yearly and I believe it to be the most current Disney guide out there. Of course things change at Disney all the time and the writers do need time to get the book printed, so there will always be a few things that have changed. The beauty is that readers can log onto the Passporter site for current updates, forums and so much more. There is no charge for the website. To the previous reviewer that suggested not writing in this book due to the glossy pages, I suggest a change of pen. My 2010 edition is already full of underlined phrases, highlighted sections and notes. No smudges, no problem at all. The pass pockets in the back keep all the important documents together as well as stuff we pick up in the parks. The planning sheets are a vital part of our planning process. Even though we are serious Disney Veterans, I would not take a trip to WDW without the current edition of Passporter!
Best Disney Book February 28, 2010

As a kid we visted Disney every year, and last year and this year I am bringing my daughter there, this is by far the best book I have seen out there! Yes it is a little expensive, but it is so worth the extra money!
Passporter's Guide books are the best! March 7, 2010
NanaTink (Virginia, USA)
I have traveled to Disney several times in the last 10 years. At first, I used several of the other guidebooks out there, but they always seemed to be missing something, then in 2006 I discovered Passporters. I've never looked back! I now own Passporters for Walt Disney World, Disneyland and Disney Cruise Lines.
I personally own the deluxe versions of the books because I love the leather binder, the ease of adding and removing pages and updating the book every year. I use the book for planning our trips, and have purchased books for family and friends who are traveling with us or are planning their own trips! I find they make wonderful Christmas presents!
One feature I really enjoy with the deluxe is the ability to remove unneeded pages from the book for the actual trip, leaving a slimmed-down version to carry to the parks.
It is by far the best guidebook I have found for Disney. It is clear that the books are written by people who know and love Disney.
