Mobile DLP Guide book
Hi, I'm thinking of taking the kiddies (2 and 4) to DLP in May half term. Can anyone recommend a good guide book?
And also I'd booking through DLP directly the best way of going about it?

Thanks!

I was given this guide book for Christmas and so far I have found it very useful

The Brit Guide is always highly recommended. However, it doesn't appear to have been updated since early Jan 2015 so it's well out of date now - unless there is a newer version I've missed.

I did look at that as I love the Orlando version. I didn't know if I was missing it when I looked.

I got this book for my last trip to DLP and it had black and white photos in it. Is this still the case or does this version have colour ones? Ta.

Yes, I don't think it's a good buy with being out of date. I bought it for my first and second trips to DLP many years ago and did find it useful, but to be honest, I think you can find so much more up to date info on the net these days. Having said that, we've just come back from Thailand and despite the fact I'd done lots of research (and we've been before years ago), I did buy a Lonely Planet pocket book for Bangkok as I just felt I wanted 'something in my hand'. I didn't use it out there though !

I have this one too, and it's probably the best I've found, though some information is incorrect, so I would say check all information on a site like this before taking it as fact. There is definitely something enjoyable about reading a guide book though!

I've also got the Unofficial Guide, because I love love loved it for our WDW trip, but I found the DLP version almost put me off going, so definitely don't buy that one!

On Amazon there is a colour version and a black and white version. The price difference was only pennies.
