Fodor's Walt Disney World, Universal Studios and Orlando 2000 : The Newest Guide to All the Magic - Spring-Summer Edition

The book's rigorous rating system is a godsend for beleaguered parents. All the attractions of Disney World, Universal Studios Escape, SeaWorld, Busch Gardens, and beyond are rated on a three-star scale, so you'll know to skip Mexico but check out China in EPCOT's famous "World Showcase." Fodor's also gives the duration of each ride or show, rates the intensity of the crowds, breaks down which attractions are best for which age groups, and suggests a strategy to best tackle the site. For the traveler who needs to see as much as possible, Fodor's "Blitz Tours" deliver marching orders for the most efficient routes through the parks. A guide to romantic spots can help parents make the most of those brief moments away from their children. There's also a comprehensive digest of Orlando's wealth of hotels and restaurants. Despite what cynics may say, there's plenty of magic to be discovered in Orlando, provided you know where to dig. Think of this book as your treasure map. --Andrew Nieland
