We all want a funny friend in places we visit, so that we have the inside scoop on what to see, do, and eat from Someone Who Knows Us. I have to admit, that’s sort of a far-fetched dream.

A trip to Walt Disney World can be very rewarding - both relaxing and fun -  but in order to fully take advantage of all the opportunities open to you on your trip while still enjoying the moment, you have to be properly prepared. A little bit of planning goes a long way into improving your trip and making sure that your vacation is really a break from stress, not a cause of it.

Sure, you know about lighting the Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center (NY), and Mardi Gras in New Orleans.

Now's the time that families gear up to head to Disney World over the holidays. We've got a fantastic resource that you should run out and get before you make even ONE tiny shred of a travel plan. Why?

The Unofficial Guides to WDW are incredible, detailed, COMPLETE guides. We've shared the Unofficial Guides for the last few years, and this new one for WDW with kids is even BETTER.
