Larissa Boland - Travel Planner Independent Agent with Custom Travel Professionals, LLC Hi! I'm Larissa and I love planning travel.

in 2015, I joined Custom Travel Professionals so I could begin helping families plan wonderful vacations - from the time you start dreaming until you're back on your door step. I take care of all the details for you and advise you at every step. I am a graduate of Disney's college of knowledge training program, and our agency is "Earmarked" - a designation for the best Disney World travel agencies

. While I love Disney and all the family travel in Orlando, I also plan family cruises world wide, all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico, and customize itineraries for city trips as well. As a mother to two boys with ADHD, sensory disorders and food allergies, I am well versed in travel with challenging children - whether by car, plane, train or boat. I can help you find and reserve safe places to eat and find resorts with spaces for cooking, and give you tips that will help you throughout your trip. I'll remind you of important dates in the planning process, and suggest places to visit and create customized documents for use during your trip. Contact me today and let's get started planning your dream family vacation!

Today was really cool.. bucket list item achieved, seeing CS Lewis’ house in Headington Oxford. He lived here for 33 years and wrote all of his books from here pretty much. It’s about 3.5 miles out of town and he used to walk to work as a professor at Magdelen College daily (pronounced Maudlin). If he didn’t walk then sometimes his brother Warnie would drive him on his motorcycle (CS Lewis would ride in the side car!). He swam in the pond almost every morning (assuming it was clearer then!) and he and his brother planted a lot of the nature reserve behind their house. (At the time they bought 8 acres for £3000 and there was really not much there except the home and two large clay-firing kilns, hence the home name “The Kilns”.) Apparently the house was a cluttered disaster in its later years with the two bachelors until he married Joy and she fixed it up a bit(they were married 3 years until her death). They hosted many authors for dinner and conversation such as Tolkien, WH Auden and Dorothy Sayers. After his brother Warnie died, the home was sold and a family gutted it with 70s style renovations. However, when it eventually went back on market some Americans pooled their resources to buy it, return it to the state it was in at the time Lewis lived there including sourcing the furnishings (but because of this, while they are authentic vintage pieces, they are not his exact items for the most part.) One tidbit was that Lewis didn’t type at all, and wrote all his books by hand with a real ink pen. His brother typed every book manuscript for him and all of his typed correspondence. They were very close, and we enjoyed hearing all sorts of interesting tidbits about their lives. He is buried in the Trinity church graveyard, a short walk from the home. Also pictured is the Eagle and Child pub, where Lewis, Tolkien and friends would meet regularly, (it’s unfortunately closed until next year at least), and the original pub sign.

🇯🇵 Japan Grad Trip
🌋 Hawaii Extended Family trip
🚢 Wonder of the Seas Caribbean Cruise Grad trip
🐠 Grand Cayman snorkeling trip
🇲🇽 Playa Mujeres All-Inclusive Grad trip

If you have friends or family that are thinking of traveling this year or next I would be honored if you share my name with them!

Snuck away for a weekend cruise with in April! Finally getting a chance to post about it ;) We sailed on the Celebrity Reflection to Key West and Bimini, Bahamas. Both are fun and easy ports. We really enjoyed relaxing, reading, eating good food, exploring Key West and the beautiful blue water of the Bahamas! So glad we were able to get away before the crazy of May. Some people will say not to bother cruising if you can only go for 3 days, but I disagree! It’s still an epic weekend where you are enjoying the Caribbean instead of sitting on the couch at home.

🎃 Do you like Villains, pumpkins, candy and all things Halloween? Are you already dreaming of fall?!
🍬 Tickets for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party at Magic Kingdom are out now - perfect for families with kids!
OR - are you more of a haunted house and horror movie fan?!
😱 Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios may be more your speed - best for adults and teens.

🍂 Reach out for assistance planning your next fall trip to Orlando! I’ll admit, I do not enjoy being scared so I prefer the tamer Disney Halloween party, but I hear great things about Universal’s Horror nights from those who enjoy that sort of thing!

📱 Try this iPhone trick to minimize your exposure to blue light before heading to bed to help you sleep better: 1. Go into settings and navigate to your accessibility options. 2. Choose color filter and change the color tint to red. 3. Then head back to accessibility and choose touch. 4. Scroll down to back tap and choose either the double or triple tap. Set that to color filter. 5. Now when you double tap the back of your phone, it will switch between the regular phone filter settings and the color filter. 😴 This is a quick way to switch to a darker red filter at night which will remove most of the blue light from your phone and help you sleep better. It also makes your phone a little bit darker overall - while still being readable if you are reading in bed - and your partner is already sleeping. This way the light from your phone won’t bother them either. 👉 Try it out and drop a comment to let me know how it worked out for you! #iphonetip #bluelight #bettersleep #healthhack #iphonehack

Surprise! Disney World released their 2025 packages today. I know it’s early, but let me know if you’d like a quote for a 2025 Disney trip! Bonus: each stay will come with one free visit to a Disney water park! Listen to the commentary as Nathan and I take the chair lift up to Mount Gushmore @ Blizzard Beach!

Have you ever stayed at Pop Century? This Disney resort leans into the past with different sections based on decades - from the 1950s to 1990s! With a fun vibe, clean modern rooms and Skyliner access to Epcot and Hollywood Studios, it’s an affordable option for families of four (or fewer!) What would be your favorite decade? #disneyworld #skyliner #vacation #popcentury #epcot #retro #1950s #1960s #1970s #1980s #1990s

Did you know I also plan national park trips? If you’re considering, heading to the Grand Canyon, Moab Yellowstone, just reach out and let me help you! These trips can get a little complicated so don’t go alone!
