Still think summer is crowded at Walt Disney World? Crowd patterns have shifted and it is no longer a peak time to travel to Disney. I spent 4 days at Walt Disney World last week and did most all the major rides including many of them multiple times (Guardians of the Galaxy 4 times - my favorite!). I was also able to take afternoon breaks to enjoy the pool and spend an evening in Disney Springs. Knowledge is power in creating a great Disney vacation. Reach out for help planning yours!

Did you know that I have exclusive pricing on many different cruises? I was pricing out a spring break cruise for a client yesterday. Booking directly through the cruise line was $1832 for a room for two people. I have those exact same rooms for $1165 with a $100 onboard credit! Why wouldn't you book with a travel agent?

Hard to think about the holidays during the heat of summer, but Disney announced holiday plans today if you are thinking of a trip this winter. It’s a great time to go!

21/06/2024

Just returned from a fabulous trip! We started in Barcelona, went on a cruise to Malta, Santorini, Turkey, Mykonos, and ended in Athens. I really believe in this age of endless screen time, travel is so important. Travel creates lasting memories with your friends and family, broadens your mind, and allows you to gain perspectives on your own life and those of others around you.

This looks amazing!

I was able to sneak down to Florida for a couple days and experience a night at Halloween Horror Nights and 1 day at Disney! Such a fun break!

07/08/2023

The final days of the cruise were amazing. College Fjord was breath taking. When we got off the ship, we did a private tour to Anchorage. Don’t let the thought of cold weather scare you away from Alaska. It is something that is truly breath taking and should be experienced. We were in the 60s and 70s most days except right against the glaciers when it was in upper 50s. If Alaska isn’t on your bucket list, you should consider adding it. You won’t be disappointed!

04/08/2023

Yesterday was my favorite day of the cruise. So glad I got to see and experience Glacier Bay!

03/08/2023

Had an amazing day yesterday in Skagway. We did a tour up to the Yukon and rode the White Pass Railroad back down. This is one of my favorite ports.

02/08/2023

Had a great time exploring Juneau yesterday and really looking forward to Skagway today!

31/07/2023

Having a great time exploring Alaska. We had a rainy day in Ketchikan today but enjoyed seeing the salmon, Creek street, totem poles, and doing some shopping. Juneau is tomorrow!

If you love Disney World, have you thought about a trip to Disneyland? My family and I just returned from a trip to Disneyland and Universal Hollywood (had to see the new Super Nintendo World!).
