If I didn't have it, I would come home and realize I missed so much that I would have loved to do or see. Having all the tips and tricks maximizes your time and customizes your trip. Thank you for writing these labors of love!! You both rock!! Disney vacations are not cheap, but are so magical that you really need to make the most of the time you get to spend there. These books gets the excitement going for months before the trip and maximize the magic while there!! I even re-read them when I get back to keep it going!! This will be my 3rd cruise passporter and I have a wonderful theme park version as well. You save me time and money and as I said, maximize the magic for me and my family!!

"The Step by step presentation, tips, and details of all phases. The fact that the Deluxe PassPorter I ordered and received was not in color, but the Walt Disney World 2008 spiral binder was in color. My wife and I had shared an 11 day trip to the World of Disney in 2003, staying at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. We had the great pleasure of having friends that have been to WDW 3 time per years for the 5 years. We were hooked, not just on one thing but everything. In 2004, our friends said they would like to take the DCL Trip. We planned and booked the 7 Day Western Caribbean trip with 5 days at Universal and WDW. Here we are seniors, 53 and 60, with kids in there 30's and 40's and feel and act like Disney's kids. We are now booked (Paid) and scheduled for 4 nights at WDW, April 22-26th and the Eastern Cruise for the 26th-May 3. We are now planning a trip to WDW Christmas 09. The PassPorter for WDW and DCL books have saved us time and most of all money on excursions we now we don't want. Thank you, thank you Dave and Jennifer. The Passporters are the perfect guide partners, and easy to read. Again, thank you." -- Lee Townsend (2008-01-14 11:57:10)

"Organization/information in a handy case! What's not to like? Ring binder in my deluxe edition does not leave enough extra room for the addition of more pages, or the ability to combine passporters (i.e. WDW and DCL). Love the book!!! Best guide I have bought/read to date and will be the only Disney guide I purchase from now on!" -- Heather LaPoint (2007-11-18 02:10:28)

"Especially liked the extensive detail of the daily schedule of activities for the cruise we have chosen. E.G. I decided to keep our late dinner seating because I learned (from you) that we would see the shows first & disembark last on our return. Just great for the grankids ( who are not early risers).

I would like to hear more about parents of preteens/teens and how the trip worked out for them. Also, the spa treatments seemed to book really early.

I am experienced at making my own travel reservationsm but needed honest opinions to know if a Disney Cruise would be ok for two adults without kids - to celebrate my 50th Birthday. I love everything Disney but wanted to make sure that there were places on the ship for adults to be away from vacationing families on the ship, if we so desired. The answer after reading your books was a resounding yes! I am looking forward to spending my 50th Birthday celebration surrounded by Disney characters and having fun in the Caribbean!" -- Mary Ann Nowak (2007-07-21 11:52:43)
