Fodorites in the know--what is the best travel book for the Orlando, Florida area? We are looking to vacation next summer, and I need to do my research. Thank you!

I always buy two. I like each for different reasons, I think that they compliment eachother. I get Fodors for Orlando area, and Birnbuams Walt Disney World.

Thanks. Will look them up at Borders.

For Disney, nothing beats the Unofficial Guide to WDW (Bob Sehlinger). It also covers, to a lesser extent, Universal and Sea World. They also get more specific, with WDW with Kids, and WDW for Couples, among others.

Like dsm22, I like Birnbaum's Walt Disney World. If you have children, they would enjoy thumbing through the book, too, because there are a lot of pictures.

The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World is very informative, as is the Passporter Guide to Orlando.

I know you didn't ask, there are also a lot of websites out there that have a lot a information. A few are wdwinfo.com, wdwig.com, mousesavers.com, as well as the official Disney and Universal Orlando websites.
