Travel Planning Help That Actually Works For Your Family

Planning a trip should feel exciting. Not like a second job you didn't apply for. Between where to stay, what parts need to be booked, when to go, and how to make it all work for everyone in the travel party, it adds up fast. I offer travel planning help for someone like you so you don't have to figure it all out and get burnt out on the idea of the trip before you even get started.

Start planning your trip OR tell me what travel idea you are thinking about

If planning your trip already feels overwhelming... this is for you.

You're not behind. You're not doing it wrong. There's just more to planning for travel than most people expect. Most families who want to travel don't realize that until they are deep in it.

This is where most people get stuck

You start with the idea and excitement. Then it can quickly turn into:

• Where do we stay?
• When should we go?
• What's actually worth it for us?
• How do we make the trip work for everyone?

And suddenly... it feels like a lot of pressure instead of fun.

This is what I help you avoid

• Spending hours researching and still feeling unsure about the options
• Choosing a resort or hotel that doesn't fit your needs
• Standing in long lines wondering where you went wrong
• Missing promotions or better options
• Trying to figure everything out while you are already on the trip

What I do as your travel advisor

I don't just book trips. You are more than just a confirmation number to me. I think through the trip with you with things like:

• Help you choose the right resort for your families needs/wants
• Map out your day so you're not stuck in lines all day
• Keep an eye on promotions and apply them if they wok for you
• Help large families figure out room setups that actually work
• Build a plan that feels balanced, not exhausting

Because the same trip can feel completely different depending on how it's planned.

What my Walt Disney World clients get (that most don't realize at first)

If you are looking to book a Walt Disney World trip, there's A LOT many people don't know until they are already in it. When you plan with me, you're not figuring it out all on your own. You'll get access to my Walt Disney World client portal with step by step guidance. This client only portal includes video room tours, dining menus, enchanted extras I can book for you, rides POV's, special needs info, allergy info, height charts, and so much more. Because I know the importance of food and dietary needs especially when you are away from home, I also offer Gluten Free Guides for all Walt Disney World parks and resorts!

What can I help you plan?

I specialize in theme parks, cruises, and all inclusive resorts but if there is somewhere you want to go, I can most likely book it for you along with transportation, rentals, tickets, strollers, etc. Want to go to Disney, Universal, Sandals/Beaches, or maybe the beach or a cabin for a holiday away from home or group trip? I can book all of those for you. A cruise more your flow? I got you. I am certified in multiple cruise lines that sail to multiple locations. Are you wanting to get concert or Broadway tickets and find the best place nearby to stay? I can book all of those for you too, tickets and hotel. There's not much I can't book and if I can't book it and I know a travel agent that can, I will refer you to them for the best care.

What makes this different?

When you book online on your own, you just get a confirmation number. When you plan a trip with me, you get someone who can advocate for you and someone who is thinking through the trip with you from the start of the planning process to the time you travel and even once you return home. The booking isn't the value, the thinking and knowledge behind it with me as your travel planner is.

Travel Agent FAQ

Does it cost extra to work with me as your travel agent? In most cases, no. Travel suppliers build my pay into their pricing and yes that means even if you aren't using a travel agent you are still paying the same price if you get all of my knowledge, support, and complimentary guides.

Can I still be involved with the planning? Yes, absolutely. Some clients want to be hands on, others want it all handled for them. I adjust to what you want.

What if I already started planning or booked some of the trip already? We can check in to transferring the booking to me or if nothing is booked just yet I can jump in to the planning wherever you are at the time.

Do you only help with Disney, Universal or theme parks? Nope. If you have a travel idea in mind reach out to me with it and I will see what we can come up with for you. I offer travel planning help for anyone who is looking to go to Disney, Universal, cruises, all inclusive resorts, and more. If you're looking for help planning a vacation without the stress, you are in the right place.
