"The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World" is a guidebook that is updated annually.

The book covers shows, attractions and restaurants in the Disney theme parks and hotels. It also covers non-Disney hotels and ways to save money in the Orlando/Kissimmee area. It ranks attractions for both adults and children to help with trip planning. It can be brought along on vacation for easy reference.
