I am excited to make your Disney trip magical, your international trip filled with excitement or help you set sail on the high seas aboard an adventure-filled ship!

🪄 Rule #1 at Universal Orlando: get the Park-to-Park ticket! Rule number two? Refer to rule number one.

No one wants to throw money away 💸, but you can’t fully experience the magic of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter ⚡ without it. Both Hogsmeade (Islands of Adventure ) and Diagon Alley (Universal Studios) are spellbinding ✨, and you’ll need (and want) that park-to-park ticket to ride the Hogwarts Express 🚂 between them. Let’s compare the two lands:

🍽️ Food: Diagon Alley offers Leaky Cauldron, and Hogsmeade has The Three Broomsticks. Both are packed with snacks, sweets 🍬, and endless Butterbeer 🍺.

🎢 Rides: Diagon Alley features Escape from Gringotts, while Hogsmeade has Forbidden Journey, Flight of the Hippogriff, and the fan-favorite Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure. (Dare we say the best ride in Orlando?! 🌟)

🏰 Ambiance: Hogwarts Castle vs a fire-breathing dragon? Impossible to choose. Both have Ollivanders Wand Shop 🪄.

✨🚢✨ Everyone loves new and shiny, but the Disney Dream holds her own as a must-consider ship. Here’s why:

💵 Shorter sailings at lower prices (3, 4, and 5 nights)

✈️ Departing from Fort Lauderdale offers flexible flights and plenty of hotel options

🌴 Exciting itineraries: Nassau, Bahamas; Cozumel, Mexico; Disney Castaway Cay; and Disney Lookout Cay

🎉 Specialty sailings: Marvel Day at Sea, Halloween on the High Seas, and Very Merrytime cruises

🍽️ Classic rotational dining: Royal Palace, Enchanted Garden, Animator’s Palate

✨ Adults-only dining at Remy 🍷 and Palo 🍝

🥳Fun for all ages: AquaDuck water coaster, shows like Beauty and the Beast and the Golden Mickeys as well as kids clubs like Vibe for teens, Edge for tweens, and Oceaneer Club for ages 3-11 🧸

💡 Another reason enlisting the help of a Travel Agent is vacation gold ✨ is because I will work to find you the best way for your larger family to stay on-site at Walt Disney World 🏰 without breaking your budget. 💸

Is it more economical to split your crew into two rooms? Would staying in a larger Family Suite or Villa make the most sense for your crew? I am here to walk through the options with you, work with your budget and your vacation amenity needs, to find you the perfect place to rest your heads and call home. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 When you’re taking a multigenerational trip, what works best for you? Do you prefer being cozy in one larger space or does everyone prefer heading off to their own room for the evening to decompress? 🌙

😬 This might surprise you to hear, but if there’s one area of Disneyland that makes a trip out to California 100% WORTH IT for families, it’s...Mickey’s Toontown! 🎉

🛝 2 Play areas:

🎉🌿👑 Tiana fans rejoice! Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is officially up and running on BOTH coasts at Walt Disney World AND Disneyland. This reimagined version of Splash Mountain features your favorite characters from the movie, toe-tapping music 🎶, and a few surprises along the way. ✨ Even better, it’s still available via Virtual Queue 📲 and also offers Lightning Lane access. ⚡️ Who has had the chance to visit Tiana’s Bayou? What did you think? (No spoilers! 🤫)

🎀🐭🚗 “Is that Minnie Mouse’s car?!” If you’ve been to Walt Disney World lately, you’ve probably noticed those adorable red and white polka dot SUVs zipping around. ❤️🤍 These are Minnie Vans, and yes—ANYONE can ride in one! They’re booked through the Lyft app and priced a bit higher than standard rides, but the perks can make them worth it.

🤔 When should you consider a Minnie Van?

🏨 Resort to Resort: Dining at a different resort? Since Disney buses don’t run resort to resort, Minnie Vans save you from multi-step transfers and wasted time. 🕒

🎢 Park Closing: Long bus lines, far-off stops, and tired kiddos 😴 are no match for a Minnie Van’s convenience. Skip the hassle and head back to your resort stress-free.

⏰ Early Mornings: Whether rope-dropping or heading to an early tour, Minnie Vans ensure you’re not at the mercy of bus schedules.

✨ And don’t forget: with Minnie Vans, you get Disney Cast Member service 🌟, closer drop-off points, car seats, cartoons onboard, and extra space for strollers or shopping bags 🛍️.

🎢 When you think of the Universal Orlando Resort, heart-pounding coasters and epic rides probably come to mind (hello, VelociCoaster 🦖 and Hagrid’s 🧙‍♂️!). But let’s not forget the other magic this destination brings: meeting your big and small-screen favorites! 🌟 Universal has a TON of character meet and greets!

🫸 From high-fiving Captain America in Marvel Super Hero Island to sharing laughs with the Grinch during the holidays, Universal is packed with opportunities to step into the stories and meet the characters you love. ❤️

🤳 Want a selfie with Optimus Prime? Or a hug from Scooby Doo? 🐾 Those memories are just as thrilling and lasting as any ride! 🎉✨

📖 "What I Wish I Knew" - Disney Cruise Line Edition

It’s true—you don’t know what you don’t know, but learning the hard way on vacation isn’t fun! 🚢✨ Here are a few top tips for making the most of a Disney Cruise Line trip:

👩‍👧‍👦 Not Just for Younger Kids:
Think teens won’t love it? ❌ Wrong! Between Edge and Vibe teen clubs 🎮, pools, and water slides, they’ll be begging to stay longer. Adults-only? DCL shines with Palo, Remy, Quiet Cove Pool, Senses Spa, Serenity Bay 🏖️, lounges 🍹, and more.

🎨 Do the Activities:
There’s so much more than pools and movies 🎥—think trivia, crafts ✂️🎨, character meet-and-greets 👸🐭, live music 🎶, and Bingo!

📱 Use the Navigator App:
This app is a lifesaver! ❤️ Favorite activities to create your schedule 🗓️ and get notifications 🔔 so you don’t miss a thing.

✈️ Arrive the Day Before:
Flight delays or traffic? 🚗✈️ That ship WILL leave without you. 🛳️ Arrive early to enjoy a smooth start to your trip! 🎉

Blizzard Beach is BACK—and better than ever!

❄️ Walt Disney World’s Blizzard Beach Water Park has reopened, and it’s had some magical upgrades! 🏖️✨ If you’ve been thinking about using that free water park day perk 🆓 on your check-in day instead of hitting the resort pool, what’s new might tip the scales in the water park’s favor, especially if you’re traveling with little “Frozen” fans! 👧❄️

🌊 The Tykes Peak kid-friendly splash area now features “Frozen”-themed touches with Anna, Elsa, and Olaf. ⛄ Just think of the photos! 📸 Plus, they’ve added some new sweet and savory menu items that may give the sand pail ice cream sundae a run for its money. 🍨

⛳ Add to that being able to walk over to Winter Summerland Miniature Golf Course 🏌️‍♀️ to use the Magical Extra free round of mini golf voucher, and that’s a whole lotta fun on Disney’s dime! 💸🎉

🌺Who is looking for the perfect summer vacation?! I am sailing with my family and friends on this ship and have a few rooms left on an exceptional group rate for a 7-night inter-island Hawaiian cruise! This is 💥$4000 LESS💥 than the current promotional rate for the exact same room category! (You read that right!) If seeing Hawaii is on your 🪣📝 then this is your sign!! I can only offer this until March 1, 2025 and then the group rate will be gone!🌺

🚢 This is the only cruise line that offers an inter-island itinerary. All other Hawaiian itineraries start or end in Canada, contiguous US or the pacific giving you far less time in the islands!

🌄🤿🏄‍♀️ I also have reduced group rates for the top-rated excursions on each island booked with the flexibility to add families in!

🔌This is a plug and play vacation with your name written all over it! Let me take the guess work out of your tropical summer vacation!

🏰✨🎉 There’s so much buzz around Disneyland this year as they prepare to kick off their 70th anniversary celebration. If you’d like to get ahead of all the celebration chasers and enjoy the parks when it’s a little more quiet and with all the original magic, why not NOW?! No time like the present, and I have to think visiting during the Lunar New Year celebration 🌙 will bring good luck to you ALL year long! (Just ask Mushu 🐉 and the ancestors!)

The Lunar New Year celebration is unique to Disneyland, so East Coasters—let’s gooooo! 🛫🎢 Anyone else think this looks like the best cure for the winter blues? ❄️💙

🤫🎨 Shhh...I’m half tempted to not even post this as I’d like to keep the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts as quiet as possible. This vastly underrated festival is, hands down, one of my absolute favorites. 💖 The splashes of color 🌈 in the middle of dreary ol’ winter ❄️, live Broadway entertainment 🎭, and even the small plates at the Food Studios are edible art! 🎨🍽️ It’s the perfect time of year as crowds have thinned, the weather is better than it is at home but not Florida at its boiling point ☀️🔥, and many of us are ready to exhale from a busy holiday season. 😌 You don’t have to be an artist, and you don’t have to be a foodie—this festival is for EVERYONE. 🌟 Let’s just not let that get out. 🤐 Have you experienced this festival? What did you love most? 💬

🦒🤩🐅Jambo! If you are a lover of animals , Disney tours, or just want to try something new, Wild Africa Trek at Animal Kingdom is full of thrills, fun, and good eats! This isn’t something you can just show up and enjoy, so here is what you need to “know before you go”:

👤 Who: Guests must be at least 8 years old, between 45-300 pounds ⚖️ (everyone gets weighed beforehand), and at least 48 inches tall. Under 18? Bring an adult!

💰 Price and Times: The tour costs $219-$229 per person and typically runs at 8:45am, 10:15am, and 11:45am daily. Pro tip: Book the earliest slot to avoid the heat ☀️—it’s a 3-hour outdoor adventure! 🌿

🎢 Activities: You’ll explore Animal Kingdom’s habitats, dine on the savanna, and cross two bridges (over a crocodile habitat! 🐊). It’s safe, thrilling, and totally unforgettable. ✨

🎁 Extras: The “snack” included is more like a meal 🍤🥪, with items like tandoori shrimp, chicken wraps, fruit, and sweet treats. You’ll also get professional photos 📸 from your guide, plus a souvenir reusable water bottle to take home! 🎉

🎉🚀 Happy 50th Birthday to Space Mountain! All these years later, and it’s still very much a centerpiece on both coasts. ✨ I guess the real question is...should she be? 🤔 Who thinks maybe it’s time to usher in an updated attraction that more closely resembles what Tomorrowland looks and feels like to guests visiting in the 21st century and beyond?

🛍️ Let’s go shopping! Did you know that when you work with a travel agent, you get your very own personal shopper for vacations? 🧳✨ That’s right! I’ll shop around to find you the best deals 💸, the perfect packages, and all the magical extras 🌟—saving you time, energy, and from overwhelm—because it can be a LOT if you don’t plan vacations every day. Don’t go it alone, put me to work for you! 🙌

Now let’s have a little fun on this Shop for Travel Day! 🎉 Which type of trip is going into your bag:

🏰 Walt Disney World
🎡 Disneyland
🚢 Disney Cruise Line
🎢 Universal Orlando
🏝️ Something Totally Different – Maybe a tropical escape, a National Park road trip, or a European adventure? ✈️

✨ Who had a sticker collection as a kid? Binders filled with everything from puffy stickers to googly eyes 👀, and of course, the holy grail: scratch-and-sniff stickers. 🤩 If you’ve carried that sticker love into adulthood—or have little ones who are sticker fanatics ❤️—Disney offers plenty of ways to indulge in sticker fun, both FREE and for purchase. 🎉

🎁 Free Fun

🐠 At The Seas with Nemo & Friends, the Dory’s Friends Scavenger Hunt lets you search for sea creatures throughout the SeaBase and comes with stickers.

✨ Many Disney Cast Members carry fun character stickers to share, especially in places like Guest Services, park entrances, gift shops, and Disney Vacation Club kiosks.

🌍 Explore EPCOT’s World Showcase and visit the Kidcot Fun Stops to collect stickers, decorate, and create mini masterpieces inspired by each pavilion.

🎠 Head over to Magic Kingdom for the sweet-scented Smellephants on Parade at Storybook Circus. 🎪🐘

🌺 Plus, during EPCOT festivals like Flower & Garden Festival or Festival of the Arts, scavenger hunt maps (around $9.99) let you track down hidden characters or themed art. Finish the hunt, collect stickers, and score a fun souvenir prize!

🍕 Happy National Pizza Week! Let’s talk about this ultimate crowd-pleaser. It’s quick, inexpensive, and always hits the spot—especially when you’re in the middle of a fun-filled day at Universal Studios. 🎢 Before the hunger panic sets in, pop into Louie’s Italian Restaurant. It’s the perfect place to grab a quick slice (or a whole pie!) 🍕 that everyone in your crew will love, and it won’t break the bank. 💰

This is Universal Studios, so stepping into Louie’s feels like walking onto the set of a classic mob movie. 🎬 With its vintage decor and cozy atmosphere, it’s a nice little escape from the hustle and bustle of the park. By the way, there’s more than just pizza on the menu here. 🍝 You can get Italian classics like chicken parm, meatball subs, salads 🥗 and more. Gluten-free pasta is available too! 🌟

👋🥰 Hello, friends! It’s been a while since I introduced myself, so I thought now would be the perfect time to say hi and share a little about me! I’m Christina, and I’m a travel professional who works with families, couples, and adventure seekers to plan vacations they’ll remember forever. Whether it’s your first trip or 20th, I’m here to make the process seamless, stress-free, and fun!

Here are a few quick facts about me:

I live in Virginia and love watching my boys play soccer, cheering for Penn State and photography!

I can’t start my day without a strong cup of coffee and a good workout!

My happy place is the next trip I am going to take and my favorite travel memory is our Adventures by Disney trip to Norway this past summer.

I would love to assist you in your next adventure whether that be a theme park destination, a tropical beach vacation, setting sail on the high seas or exploring an international destination!
