PassPorter is award-winning, best-selling, and easy-planning!

Hello, I'm Jennifer Marx, one of the authors of PassPorter's Walt Disney World. And I love Walt Disney World!

When I first began going to Walt Disney World, planning for my trips took so much time, it felt like a full-time job! And organization? I just had all my notes, papers, itineraries, and travel documents shoved into an old folder. So I made myself a little binder, complete with my essential information and itineraries. During my trips, I kept this binder handy, using it to store tickets, brochures, and receipts ... and I found that after my trip, the binder had become a scrapbook, full of pixie-dusted memories and goofy smiles.

When my writing career took off in the mid-'90s, I no longer had the time to create my binders for every trip. One day, while riding a Disney bus back from Epcot, I had a brainstorm -- I could create an easy-to-use, book-based version of my binders and offer it as a resource to fellow vacationers. Thus, the PassPorter was born ... and more than ten years later, it has become a national bestseller and the winner of 12 awards!


Wait ... a book? Why would you get a book when you can get so much information online, like all the free articles, news, and tips at PassPorter.com? And who has the time these days to read an entire book? Ah, that's the beauty of PassPorter -- experts gather all the key information together in one place for you so you don't need to spend hours, days, or weeks scouring the Internet for tidbits of data. Then we organize that information so you can quickly find what you need without having to read the entire book ... unless you want to, of course! We've done all the hard work for you -- you get to have all the fun planning your trip!

Wait ... do I really need to plan my trip and be organized? Walt Disney World is the #1 vacation destination in the U.S., and millions of people visit every year. Ask anyone who has actually been to Walt Disney World and they will all tell you ... you must have a plan! Hey, I enjoy the thrill of venturing into the unknown just as much as the next person. Even so, when vacation time is so precious and vacation costs are so high, why risk wasting hours or even entire days of your vacation because you were unprepared? The stress of constant on-the-fly decision making, the disappointment of lost opportunities, and the waste of limited vacation dollars hardly adds up to a pleasant, rejuvenating vacation. A little up-front investment in planning and organization helps ensure a wonderful journey and a lifetime of happy memories.


I have a little confession to make -- I'm a writer and a mom, but not much of a saleswoman. I dearly love to ferret out the juiciest information and best deals, then wrangle it all into an organized guidebook, but ask me to write a little letter about it and I freeze up. So rather than subject you to my simple attempt to explain my guidebook, I'd rather let my readers tell you what they think. I've been fortunate enough to receive over 25,000 testimonials since PassPorter debuted in 1999 (yes, I am a very lucky author!) and I really think they say it best.


Holy Cow.
What's not to like about PassPorter? It makes me feel like the most organized person EVER.

Gina Peterson in Texas


Absolutely love it!
PassPorter has got to be the most concise and informative book. The maps are detailed so you can't get lost. I wouldn't change a thing!

Toni Lee S. in Pennsylvania


Brilliant!!
I'm in awe of PassPorter! It's not just a great guidebook to read before a trip, but a hold-all while there, as well as an on-the-spot reference. Then, later, it becomes a scrapbook.

Florence Mitchell in Pennsylvania


Love it!
Every year we go to Disney, I buy a new PassPorter. The descriptions are flawless, and the advice in it is awesome. PassPorter is irreplaceable if you are planning a trip to Disney.

So those folks love it, but is PassPorter right for you? It's not unusual for folks to write to me and say, "I saw your guidebook on the web or in the bookstore, and it looks great, but I'm still not sure it's right for me. Will it work for my vacation?" There's no easy answer to this question ... there are as many answers as there are vacations! PassPorter isn't everything to everybody, nor does it try to be.

But I can show you three great things that will help you decide:

1. See it for yourself! Take a "virtual flip" through our book with 44 free sample pages.

2. Learn the fifteen exclusive features only offered by PassPorter's Walt Disney World:

Valuable Features Found Only in PassPorter:
  1. Our organizer "PassPockets" are legendary for their ability to plan trips and record memories. This is our readers' #1 most favorite feature, and we have the only guidebooks that offer them.
  2. We've totally packed our guidebook with information, details, prices, ratings, reviews, tips, and little-known facts. You'll be amazed how much information is on each page, and how well organized it all is.
  3. The most up-to-date guidebook to Walt Disney World on the market. Thanks to our production schedule, our guidebooks are always ahead of the game.
  4. A spiral (or ring binder in our Deluxe edition), making it easier to keep your book open to the page you're reading.
  5. Full color, fold-out maps of the four major Disney theme parks ... and they're more detailed and accurate than any other map, too!
  6. The most in-depth coverage of the Disney resort hotels -- we devote at least four pages to each -- including detailed maps, floorplans, tips, ratings, prices, and more.
  7. Magical memories from fellow vacationers in their own words.
  8. More than 500 full-color photos of Walt Disney World resorts, parks, eateries, and special things -- featuring real people doing real things, not just Disney models smiling for the camera.
  9. Listings of related web sites and pages... well over 150 useful links!
  10. Trip-tested worksheets to help you plan your vacation.
  11. ToddlerTips, KidTips, TweenTips, and TeenTips of attractions and childcare clubs ... from our kids to yours!
  12. Self-stick, color tabs to mark your chapters.
  13. Very, very accurate information, thanks to our diligent efforts and more than two dozen expert peer reviewers. We're not perfect (that's not possible), but even when there are mistakes we fix them by issuing free online book updates.
  14. Always up-to-date with our online page-by-page book updates, free weekly newsletter, free articles, free photo archive, free podcast, and free message boards to exchange news and ideas with other vacationers.
  15. Written and reviewed by real vacationers, not just professional travel writers (not that I'm not) or a corporate research team. We feel more like friends and family. And we're accessible -- you can ask us any question.
These are great features, yes, but in the end all that matters is if the guidebook helps you plan the best possible vacation. And that's where we put the most focus. We keep our information concise and direct, we try not to overwhelm you with too much stuff, and we give you tools to actually plan your trip.

3. PassPorter works for other vacationers! Read why from our readers:

"I am thoroughly enjoying my PassPorter. At first I didn't understand why you did some things the way you did. Now that I am actually making reservations and seriously planning, not just dreaming, it makes perfect sense. My husband laughs at me that I like the friendly font. It is not just another travel book. It's like a friend bound up all of this great information for you." (Sandra S.)

"I think PassPorter will be the only guide we actually carry around with us to the parks. The other two we got are helpful, but one is too big and the other isn't detailed enough. I like the planning pockets and the places to keep everything in one place." (Dr. Lee)

PassPorter receives thousands and thousands of testimonials like those above. But just so you're sure I'm not faking them (horrors!) or only repeating the nice things, check out the comments from readers at Amazon.com.

Still not sure? Visit a bookstore and find a current version of PassPorter. Flip through it, read some pages, see how it feels in your hand. Sometimes that's the only way to know! That said, there are a few things that we do okay, but other guidebooks do better. It's more important that you have a good vacation than buy our book! Here are some features that are stronger in other guidebooks:

  • Touring Plans -- we have some, but the ones in the Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World are legendary and are offered in many versions.
  • Off-Property Information -- get the unofficial guide, or better yet, try Universal Orlando or The Other Orlando guidebooks
  • Kid Stuff -- if your focus is strongly on kids, try Walt Disney World with Kids

    "I love your honesty. If you don't like something, you just say so. I also like the down-to-earth nature of the book. It's as if a friend wrote the book." -- Lisa Amico in New York
    "PassPorter is incredibly easy to use! I loved the sections devoted to each park with the maps right there! Genius!" -- Misti Simpson in South Dakota
    "I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT! PassPorter is wonderful! It's everything you ever wanted to know in a nice, compact book." -- Julienne Schiebe in Illinois


    P.P.P.P.S. My son Alexander says you can have a virtual lick of his Mickey Bar if you buy one of mommy's books.

    If that doesn't do it, I don't know what will. PassPorter is really one of the best genuine travel guidebooks available today, professionally written and designed, printed in full-color on glossy stock, filled with photos, tips, stories, advice, ratings, information, topped off with a full planning and organizing system, and backed by a full web site packed with interactive features and information. There's a reason why people are passionate about PassPorter!
