Magic Kingdom at night. 😍 I love working with clients on park touring outlines that include time to see the parks early in the day, and evening. Some clients want to be sure to have some down time to fit family needs, and others like to go until they drop. And…I’ve done it all. I love customizing this part of clients Walt Disney World vacations. Well come up with a personalized plan that works for you.

Minnie has a front row seat for fireworks! She planned her Walt Disney world vacation with me, and so she knows what time to get to the front of the castle if she doesn’t want tall people in front of her!

When you rope drop Hollywood studios and you’re done with Toy Story land before park opening, it’s walk onto Minnie and mickeys runaway railway and then no wait to meet Minnie and Mickey.

Had a wonderful chance to meet with some Irish travel suppliers this evening! I love to get out there and make connections with partners directly in the country where my clients will travel. Got to meet some people face to face who I’ve worked with in the phone, and made new connections that I can bring directly to my clients headed to Ireland soon! ☘️ Plus the view in Minneapolis wasn’t bad.

It's been a while since I've done an intro post. If you've recently found us, welcome! I'm Katie, founder, CEO, and lead visionary behind Engage! Travel Co. I've been a business owner since 2019, have over 20 years' experience leading meetings, events, STEM programs, and volunteer teams in associations/nonprofits. I've worked in cancer advocacy serving the community. I know the value of a vacation, whether it is for happy reasons, or a very needed get-away during tough times. I draw on my varied experience to find what matters to *you with your vacation, and focus on filling the gaps that help you make your dream trip happen.

I believe in using my skills to connect, inspire, and uplift others, and I bring those values to every vacation I serve.

I'm also ecstatic to share that we are currently growing our team. That's right, in addition to finalizing some amazing vacations to Europe, Disney, and beyond for summer 2024, we are currently interviewing candidates who want to become travel professionals. If you've considered a career in travel, you are passionate about all things travel *and giving back to others, want to be part of a supportive, growing team, are coachable on sales and customer service, and are not afraid of a bit of nerdiness, we'd love to hear from you. Drop me a dm.

In this photo, I'm standing in the wind on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, in Menton, France, the last town in the south of France before Italy.

Welcome, we're glad you're here!

We are SO excited for our clients who are headed to Ireland this summer on a group tour plus some independent travel.
