Valerie fell in love with travel after she met and fell in love with her husband Chris and together they made vacationing a key part of their family's life. It has been said that the families that vacation together stay together, and in our fast-paced, technology-saturated, 21st century life where most (if not all) family members either work or go to school all day long, vacationing has become one
of the precious essential times when families can bond with each other, share and discover new experiences, and build lasting memories. Now with two boys, Valerie and her husband have made many magical memories, especially to our favorite place on earth, Walt Disney World! She specializes in Walt Disney World, Universal Studios Florida and other Disney destinations and can also help with arranging accommodations for the special needs unique to each family, especially since her own two boys both have special needs that require extra planning. Favorite Disney Resort: Disney's Polynesian Village Resort
Favorite Disney Snack: The Nutella Waffle Sandwich at the Sleepy Hollow food stand. Favorite Disney Character: Too many to list, but my favorite to encounter at the park is Peter Pan!
This observatory on Mount Stanserhorn in the Swiss Alps overlooks 10 lakes and 100 kilometers of Alpine mountains. After exploring the surrounding area, you won't want to miss a delicious dinner in the revolving Rondorama restaurant. An unforgettable panoramic dining experience is guaranteed! It takes 43 minutes to complete a full revolution, giving you plenty of time to admire 360 degrees of scenery.
Adventure awaits in Tenerife: where sun-kissed beaches meet volcanic wonders. I can help you effortlessly plan an unforgettable trip to this Canary Island gem. From hiking the Teide volcano to relaxing on black sand beaches, there's something for everyone. ALGVacations
