The Boston Globe

"The book also discusses ways to save for a trip, where to stay and eat, and how to find low-cost souvenirs. While some families may find such efforts unnecessary ..... for others they may mean the difference between going or not."

"I tested this guarantee and priced a vacation according to their suggestions. My verdict: Their estimate of $200 savings is far too humble! I saved three times that much on lodging alone!  Complete with maps and phone numbers, DISNEY ON A DIME should be the first (and only) vacation planning book you should buy. Give their guarantee a chance – that Disney vacation may be just around the corner for you, too."

"The book also covers sample budgets within the back of the book. This is great for families looking for ideas on how to save money without taking the time to do all the research themselves. I liked that there was several ideas and flexibility within the plans. Many times, budget books will simply give you the cheapest way to do something. This book takes into account many of the options families have."

"If you’re the kind who pays for the package thinking you’re saving money, this is the book for you, because you aren’t. The book doesn’t shy away from using real dollar values in providing sample budgets and menus, and that makes it invaluable as a planning tool for folks considering a first WDW trip."
