This comprehensive, 260-page e-book covering every aspect of visiting Walt Disney World from the United Kingdom. It takes you through your entire visit, from the planning stages to working out the best way to get there and get around, with details about arriving in America, passports and immigration, duty-free allowances, driving in the States, and staying in touch while you're away! Club Passholders get it now in the Reading Room. The e-book is also now on sale to the general public in the PassPorter Store. |

| Re: Disney Vacation Club We took the tour and signed up last December. The tours are given at the Boardwalk, so if you can get him to the BW you can just "wander" into it. They also gave us a coupon for a free lunch for taking the tour - that was enough to convince my DH to do the tour! I don't remember exactly how much of a down payment was required, but you can even put it on your credit card if you want. We didn't have our kids along on that trip so I can't help you with that part of your question. |

| Disney Vacation Club I'm looking for information from anyone out there. I want to buy into this but I haven't told DH my plans yet. What kind of initial investment will I need, up front? I know he tends to be an impulse buyer if he thinks the deal is good, so is there a way I can arrange to take the tour and make it seem like we just happened upon the tour? Also, will they let my 3 year old stay in the kids activity room (being he is so young) while we take the tour. I know the free baby-sitting will be hook enough to get DH to go have a look. Any answers from anyone would be greatly appreciated. Thanks |

| Re: Disney Vacation Club Thanks for your help. I think that I can easily convince him to go visit the Boardwalk, as we were born in Brooklyn and he has many fond memories of going down to the Boardwalk in Coney Island as a child. I think the hint of nostalgia will be enough to get him there, and I'll take care of the rest after. |

| Re: Disney Vacation Club We bought in at the VWL last December also. We had spoken about doing the DVC tour before we left for WDW. Our second day was rainy, so we drove over to the VWL and asked if we could look around. A CM showed us the room layouts. Then we walked back out to the DVC desk in the WL lobby. They called over to the BW office and a van came to pick us up. The kids (8&9) went to the playroom and within an hour we had signed. There was no pressure like when we did a timeshare tour in Hawaii. A side note, our kids did not want to leave the activity center. They had made some friends there. A month ago we did an add-on of points over the phone and via FedEx. Real easy. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] |
