Do you love planning your own vacations? I know me too! But did you know that when you work with a travel advisor (like me!) you can still be involved in the planning process? Just because you love the planning process doesnāt mean you should miss out on the benefits of working with a travel advisor. Do you want to do all the research and bounce option off me and get my feedback? SURE! Do you want to still look at some options and Iāll send you my picks for you? SOUNDS GOOD. Do you want me to do all the research for you because you find it too overwhelming? ABSOLUTELY! My role changes based on the needs of my clients and Iām happy to work with you in the way you need to help make your dream vacation a reality. Interested? Head to the link in my bio and fill out my Client Inquiry form and letās see how we can work together to make your dream vacation a reality!#canadiantravelblogger #canadianmominfluencer #momprenurer #canadiantravelers #familytravelling #familytravelife #momswhotravel #travelmom #tropicalgetaways #igtravels #igtravdlfiaries #igtravelworld #portday #travelgirlsvibe #familytravelvibes #kwliving #vacationmode
Gifts often end up forgotten collecting dust on a shelfā¦how many times have you been frustrated spending countless dollars on toys to only have them be forgotten a few weeks later? You know whatās not forgotten? Making family memories. Iām so glad I was able to realize this while my boys are still young, but I wish I had sooner. If you look at what you spend each year on Christmas, Easter, Birthdays etc you may be surprised that it could pay for a vacation! And Iām not saying donāt give your kids presents, Iām saying maybe do less, and teach your children to value the time with family more than the toys. #makethememories #familieswhotravel #familieswhocruise #kidswhocruise #familyvacation #familytraveladvisor #canadiantraveladvisor #ontariofamily #ontariomoms #cruisetravelagent
Letās talk DIY vacation planning for a minuteā¦We have all done it, you want to go on vacation so you spend hours online trying to find the best option out of hundreds of vacation options, have 14 different browser tabs open to compare resorts/ships and check their reviews. You may even hop on a Facebook group and ask for recommendations, which sounds great BUT they only have their experiences to go off. While this may sound greatā¦what if there was a better option they didnāt know about that would suit your families needs even more? This is where working with a travel advisor can help you out! I spend my days looking at vacations, training with different suppliers and traveling. I know which resorts offer water parks, which cruise ships have zip lines or racetracks. Why would you spend your valuable time researching to find out the answers when you could just get a custom proposal made just for your family based off what YOU want? Iāll narrow your search down to just a few options to choose from that will be the perfect fit without being overwhelmed with endless choices!Save yourself the time, money and stress and work with a professional travel advisor and see how much easier it can be to plan your next vacation! #travelprofessional #familytraveladvisor #familieswhotravel #kidswhotravel #canadiantraveladvisor #ontariotravelagent #mexicotravel #allinclusivetravel #cruisetravel #cruisetravelagent
Can you relate? It can take hours of research searching for the perfect resort for your families vacation.

We often have preselected lists of resorts that we recommend to our clients based off our training, personal visits and recommendations from other travel advisors. We have done all the research and learning so you donāt have to! Why spend hours online of your valuable time when you can delegate that work?

Looking to get the best value for your trip to Walt Disney World in 2024? Then your going to want to plan your vacation during these times to help stretch your dollar a bit further! January and February are always the slowest and most affordable months to visit. Specifically Jan 8-11th, and then January 15th through mid February. This is my personal favourite time to go as the weather is a bit cooler which is great for the long park days, but usually warm enough for us Canadians to go swimming šNext up is early March before the spring break crowds set in! End of August into mid September are also looking good for pricing. This is also the quietest time to go with the lowest waits! It will still be very HOT so be sure to be prepared for summer heat in Florida āļø If your looking to plan a trip to Walt Disney World in 2024 and looking for some help, head to the link in my bio and schedule a consultation call and letās get you Castle ready š° #waltdisneyworld #disneymom #kidswholovedisney #momswholovedisney #makethememories #disneytrip #disneytripplanning #disneytravelagent #canadiandisneytravelagent #kwmom #ontariomom #canadianmama

So what kind of things can you expect to do onboard a Disney cruise?!? The options are endless; character meet and greets, Trivia, movies, classes, family activities, bingo, parties, shows, cocktail tastingsā¦there really is something for everyone! The characters are an obvious choice (gotta get a hug from Mickey!) however you can often catch me participating in some trivia! Especially if itās related to Disney, Harry Potter, Star Wars or Friends! What activity would you be joining in on while onboard?!? Let me know in the comments!! #disneycruise #familycruise #familyvacation #cruisingwithkids #cruiselife #familycruisevacation #familydisneycruise
One of the many things both myself and my clients love about cruises is exploring the different ports of call. Most cruise ships spend a day in each port of call, and while itās just a little taste of what each place is like, itās amazing how much you can do and experience in just one day! Itās also a great opportunity to scope out the places you may like to visit for longer in your future travels. If my clients really love a port, weāll schedule a rerun vacation there for a longer stay! One island we are hoping to go back to for a longer stay is Dominicaā¦did you know some of the second Pirates of the Caribbean movies was filmed there š¤©Is there an island you visited on a cruise that you canāt wait to go back and visit for a longer stay?

Are you making these first time cruise mistakes?!? Iāve made one or two when I first started cruising, but good news for youā¦Iām here to help so you donāt make the same mistakes!! 1.) Not flying in the night before. Flights get delayed itās out of our control. Ensure you fly (or drive) in the day before so you donāt miss your cruise due to flight delays. Plus you get to start your vacay a day early. š„³2.) Not booking your pre cruise hotel in advance. You will get the best deals if you book further out. Often you can find hotels that offer shuttles to and from the airport and cruise ports.3.) Not packing a swimsuit in your carry on. When you cruise you leave your luggage with the porters when you board the ship and itās not often delivered until the evening. Ensure you pack your swimsuit, flip flops, medication and anything you may need the first day before your luggage arrives.4.) Not getting the drink package. This one depends on your family. If you think you are going to have more than 6+ drinks a day (including specialty coffee) than the drink package could save you some money.5.) Forgetting to put your phone on airplane mode. I have done this š¤¦āāļøthe bill was not pretty, and the worst part is I didnāt even use my phone! I had it in my bag and had data turned off so assumed I was good. Nope put it on airplane mode you donāt want those fees. āļø Do you have any questions about cruising for the first time?

Where my Canadian mamas at!!! Yāall I love being Canadian but this hurts! Hereās some tips to help combat this brutal exchange rate: 1.) Consider a US credit card. If you frequently travel to the US it may be with looking into as they often provide the best exchange rate. 2.) Book during off season. This is a bit harder with Disney but your dollar will typically stretch a bit further in January, February, May and September with a few other weeks sprinkled throughout the year. 3.) Know your max budget. Figure out the most you can pay and we can work down from there. Remember Disney packages currently only include Resort Stay and Park tickets so there are a lot of extras to consider. A professional Travel Agent (like me š) can help you know what expenses to expect and prepare for. 4.) Plan in advance. The further out you plan your trip the more time you have to save. Letās say your budget is $10k over a year thatās $833/ month and if you canāt swing that plan for 2 years out. 5.) If that still seems impossible consider planning an all inclusive or a cruise. Your dollar will go a bit further that way.
For a lot of people Disney is often a once in a lifetime vacation. I feel so fortunate that I am able to help families reach this milestone. Seeing photos of clients on vacation truly makes my job the best in the world. I get to create happiness and memories for a livingā¦how cool is that!!! Thank you to all my past, present and future clients. I am so grateful you trusted me to make your dreams come true š«¶
A lot of people tell me they thought I only booked Disney vacations. While I do love and book many trips to Disney destinations, Iām also a firm believer in seeing the world. I love experiencing both new and familiar places. Hereās how I can help you with your next family vacation;1.) Disney Destinations - Walt Disney World, DisneyLand, Aulani and Disney Cruises. Iām also going to lump Universal Studios in here too š¤« 2.) Ocean Cruises - I LOVE cruising! There is something about the open water, being able to have a homebase to unpack once and be floated onto new destinations. Iām certified with many of the major Ocean cruise lines and have personally sailed on them. 3.) River Cruises - Ready for a step up from Ocean Cruising? Iām certified with my favourite family friendly River Cruise lines. Yup I said it there are FAMILY friendly River cruisesā¦who knew? Well now you do! 4.) Sunny All Inclusives - I mostly book these for repeat clients as I find most people prefer to book All Inclusives on their own. However if you donāt want to do hours of research, and spend a week on Trip Advisor Iāve got your back! If I havenāt personally been to a resort Iām recommending itās because another travel agent has and I trust their option. Well if you donāt know now you know! Let me know what your favourite types of vacations are in the comments! #familycruise #familytravel #travelagent #familytravelplanner #wdw #rivercruise #beachvacation

Ever wanted to stay at a Deluxe resort but didnāt think you could afford the price tag? I have some tricks up my sleeve to help you stay at a Deluxe resort and keep it under $4500! 1.) Shorten your stay and consider a 4 night trip Monday- Friday for the lowest rates (and youāll still get those extra evening hours exclusive to deluxe resort guests!) 2.) Consider the further out resorts. While Contemporary and Grand Floridian being walking distance to the Magic Kingdom is AMAZING you pay for that perk. Resorts that are a bit further away will have a bit of a lower price tag.3.) Go during the āoffā season. While WDW really has no off seasons it is less crowded certain months of the year which will also have lower ticket and resort costs. Want to live your dream of living it up at a Deluxe resort? I would love to help you make it work for your families budget! Shoot me a DM and we can get started!!

So youāre tired of trying to find the perfect gift, or your kids just have wayyy too much stuff that they donāt even play with. So this year you have decided to give the gift of a family vacationā¦awesome! Here are some ways to still let the kiddos unwrap something and see the look of excitement in their eyes when they see some gifts under the Christmas tree: 1.) Scavenger Hunt: Wrap clues in boxes and hide around the house so the kids have to go searching with the trip being revealed last clue.š2.) Box of themed gifts: Wrap a box with a bunch of things they will need for the tripā¦going on a Disney cruise fill the box with a swimsuits, stuffed character, cruising themed ears and a costume for pirate night! 3.) Box of balloons: This one is great for Disney! Fill a large box of helium Disney balloons and wrap it up. When they open it Christmas morning the balloons float up revealing the big surprise. 4.) Custom puzzle: Have a custom puzzle made (or DIY one yourself) with a message or photo revealing the trip.5.) Create custom boarding passes and wrap in a box. There are some great templates on Cava you can tweak and print on your own! Thinking about giving your family a vacation for Christmas but donāt know where to start?
