Table of Contents: Two big questions about Walt Disney World are where to stay and how to get around. The accommodations range from concierge suites to modest campsites, with thousands of rooms and villas in between. Our guide describes every Disney resort, with details presented in a handy chart. And we explain the World's vast transportation system, to boot. PAGE 113: MAGIC KINGDOM The enchantment of Walt Disney World is most apparent in the wealth of attractions and amusements that fill this, its original theme park. Our land-by-land guide describes all there is to see and do in this classic play zone, plus plenty of other insider tips and the scoop on new additions for Walt Disney World's 50th anniversary celebration. PAGE 143: EPCOT A gleaming silver geosphere introduces Disney's wonderland of discovery--an ambitious exploration of the world of the future as well as the present. The park's four neighborhoods offer every visitor the opportunity to be a global and cerebral voyager, without setting foot outside Florida. Here's how to make the most of this uniquely fascinating destination. PAGE 175: DISNEY'S HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS Now's your chance to be part of Disney's Hollywood adventure! Everything from controlling the Millennium Falcon to a Frozen sing-along to a trip to The Twilight Zone(TM) and the excitement of daring stunts and special effects is waiting to be enjoyed. There are also opportunities to bond with Disney characters and experience a thrill ride or two. We have developed strategies for seeing this Tinseltown, ensuring the most fun possible. PAGE 197: DISNEY'S ANIMAL KINGDOM The most sprawling member of WDW's theme park lineup celebrates the circle of life and the wonders of Earth's animal kingdom. Amid nature's majesty, guests experience a stirring safari, dodge dastardly dinosaurs, and ride raging rapids. Our coverage, which includes the beloved land, Pandora--The World of Avatar, guarantees a fun-filled trip to a place where humans are humbly reminded of their role in the natural world. PAGE 217: EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE WORLD Beyond the theme park boundaries lie countless acres full of just the sort of wonders for which Disney is famous: state-of-the-art water parks and the dynamic Disney Springs entertainment, shopping, and dining district among them. So if you want to ride down watery slides, dance the night away, shop at elegant boutiques, pamper yourself at a spa, or experience behind-the-scenes tours, this chapter will help you find your way. PAGE 245: SPORTS & RECREATION Walt Disney World has more tennis courts and golf greens than most posh resorts, plus plenty of places for boating, biking, horseback riding, swimming, and fishing. Here's how to combine these options with the rest of the WDW fun. PAGE 253: GOOD MEALS, GREAT TIMES Restaurants around Disney World property run the gamut from simple snack shops to bastions of haute cuisine. Choices are nearly endless, so we've organized them in an area-by-area directory that lets you know where each restaurant is located and what specialties it offers. We also tell you about the Disney Dining Plan, WDW's reservations system, dinner shows, where to dine with Disney characters, and where to enjoy an after-dinner drink. PAGE 317: DISNEY CRUISE LINE Many guests choose to make a Walt Disney World visit even more magical by pairing it with a cruise to the Caribbean or the Bahamas--the ultimate Land and Sea vacation, Disney style. This "bonus" chapter tells you how to plan it. PAGE 349: HAPPY 50th ANNIVERSARY, WALT DISNEY WORLD! Walt Disney World is marking 50 years of memory-making magic with an 18-month-long, pixie-dusted party. We offer you a peek at The World's Most Magical Celebration! WHAT'S NEW? To spotlight attractions, shows, restaurants, and events that are making (or have recently made) their debut, listings are marked with the icon shown at right. Look for it throughout the book. Here are some of the highlights: Club Cool: PAGE 148 Disney Enchantment (fireworks): PAGE 137 Disney KiteTails: PAGE 208 Disney's Riviera Resort: PAGE 86 Harmonious (nighttime spectacular): PAGE 171 Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana: PAGE 150 La Crêperie de Paris: PAGE 270 Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway: PAGE 188 Remy's Ratatouille Adventure: PAGE 161 Roundup Rodeo BBQ: PAGE 274 Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser: PAGE 112 Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance: PAGE 189 Space 220: PAGE 263 The Swan Reserve: PAGE 91 TRON Lightcycle/Run: PAGE 131 The World's Most Magical Celebration: PAGE 349 Biographical Note: When Steve Birnbaum launched this guide in 1981, he made it clear what was expected of anyone who worked on it: The book would be meticulously revised each year, leaving no attraction untested, no snack or meal untasted, no hotel untried. First-hand experiences like these, accumulated over the years, make this book the most authoritative guide to Walt Disney World. Our expertise, however, is not achieved by being escorted through back doors of attractions (although we would enjoy that). Instead, we wait in lines with everyone else, always hoping to have a Disney experience like that of any other guest. While Walt Disney World has vastly expanded, and so has our knowledge of the most popular vacation destinations on the planet. We believe the best way to gather useful advice for a Disney park guest is to be one.
