The Luxury Guide to Walt Disney World Resort, 2nd: How to Get the Most Out of the Best Disney Has to Offer
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-07-19 Summary: A guide to Walt Disney World for the "sophisticated" traveler ... The Luxury Guide to Walt Disney World doesn't cover all the attractions, resorts and restuarants at WDW, nor does it intend to. Instead, it focuses on the higher-end (expensive) luxurious resorts, restaurants and entertainment at Walt Disney World. The Luxury Guide does a very good job of doing so, and if you're interested in the best of what Disney has to offer in Orlando, I highly recommend this book. If you're looking for "value" accomodations or how to have a low-budget vacation at WDW, then this guide is not for ...more

Cara Goldsbury does an excellent job of sharing everything the reader needs to know to make the right ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-02-18 Summary: Excellent Supplement ... Full Disclosure: Cara Goldsbury was my travel agent for one of my (many) Disney trips. My 'regular' agent was unavailable and he recommended Cara as a substitute. My budget was definitely more value than deluxe, but I was impressed with Cara's skill and ability to plan a luxury vacation on a value budget. That isn't the object of this book, the recommendations and tips have a luxury price tag attached, but she does a great job of pointing out certain values when they do exist. If you are only going to buy one guidebook ...more
