✅JUST BOOKED! This family is going to have a frightfully great time at Universal Orlando's Halloween Horror Nights! Voted the best Halloween Event in the US, HHN has everything from spectacular Haunted Houses to immersive scare zones to live entertainment, special stores selling exclusive merch and lots of specially-themed food and beverages! PLUS the rides are open so if you need a break from the chills, you can enjoy some thrills with little to no lines!

Halloween Horror nights is perfect for a short Friday to Monday escape. Let me know if you're interested and I'll put together a package for you!

✅ ANOTHER FAMILY BOOKED FOR 2025 AT ISLAND TOWER!!!! 🎉 Another of my Disney Loving Families saw the post below and immediately reached out to me to book one of these amazing two bedroom Villas at the brand new Island Tower which opens December 2024!!! They are going to love this spacious villa where they can relax in between the magic and take in spectacular fireworks views! WHY BOOK NOW??
1. It's a huge win win for you - you get to lock in the exact resort and room type you want. Resorts like the Polynesian are high demand and villas are in even higher demand!
2. You get to lock in 2024 hotel and ticket pricing for a 2025 stay - before the annual price increases kick in!
3. You can secure with just a $200 USD deposit.
4. Payments are flexible - so booking August 2025 now gives you 11 months to make payments at your own pace!
5. Your deposit and payments are FULLY REFUNDABLE should your plans change and you need to cancel.
6. Having a Disney Vacation Package on hold gives you and your family something super exciting to look forward to and dream about!

Let me get your countdown to the magic started! [email protected]

✅JUST BOOKED! 🎉 This family had such a magical time at Disney World last week, that they reached out to me from the airport to book a return trip in 2025! ✨AND I GOT THEM A 2 BEDROOM VILLA IN THE BRAND NEW ISLAND TOWER OVERLOOKING MAGIC KINGDOM!✨ What an amazing home away from home this is going to be - 2 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, Fully Equipped Kitchen with all major appliances (including a dishwasher), spacious Living Room and Dining Room areas, and a Private Deck from which they can view the Magic Kingdom Fireworks! Plus they'll have a washer/dryer in their apartment so they can pack light (and save room for shopping lol). PLUS their kids are going to love Moana’s Voyage, a whimsical new splash area that will feature life-size sculptures of Moana and her iconic canoe and the Cove Pool, a brand-new zero-entry pool!

Island Tower at Disney's Polynesian Resort opens in December 2024 - if you like staying in brand new accommodations and want extra room to spread out, this is a great deluxe option for your family!

[email protected] for your quote. Villas, like rooms, require just a $200 USD deposit to book and secure your rate. Flexible payments thereafter apply!

IT'S BUCKET LIST DAY FOR TWO OF MY CLIENTS!!!! For one of my clients it's not only their very first time visiting Disney World, but they're doing it in style with a Private Disney VIP Tour! They're being whisked around all four parks in a chauffeur-driven vehicle with a personal guide (and getting to use back door entrances just like the Celebrities do!). My other client is heading to Paris for the first time to see the Olympics in person and enjoy some amazing private tours which I've organized for them!

What's the right age to take your kids on big trips? Now. Whatever age they are. Take them! Travel does amazing things for a child, for their development, for their brains! They may not remember the details of a place, but the experiences imprint on them and truly sets them on an incredible path! I started taking my daughter on big trips at the age of two. By 12, she had been to North America, South America, Central America, the Caribbean and Europe - and we haven't stopped! Through travel, my daughter has gained confidence and insight, her creativity is fueled, her perspectives broadened and her sense of being a global citizen is firmly established!

In today's world, your children's opportunities are not bound by geography - so start introducing them to that big wide world!

Planning trips in advance, and taking advantage of flexible payments, is one of the ways we can make this a reality! Get in touch - I'd love to chat with you about this! [email protected]

Is access to USD frustrating your travel plans? The workaround is to book early! Booking in advance means you can make payments at your own pace and pay for a lot of your trip upfront - so that you can leave your card clear for the fun stuff like shopping! Booking now also means you get to lock in lower current pricing and with favorable cancellation terms (should your plans change), it's a win-win for you!

✦✦ Here's an idea of what we can book now:

DISNEY WORLD - 2024 & 2025
UNIVERSAL - 2024 & 2025
DISNEY CRUISES - UP TO EARLY 2026
ROYAL CARIBBEAN - UP TO APR 2026
SANDALS - UP TO END 2026
GLOBAL ESCORTED TOURS - 2024 & 2025
GLOBAL HOTELS & ALL INCLUSIVES - UP TO MAY 2025

Let's plan that trip! [email protected]

I JUST BOOKED A 2026 ANNIVERSARY TRIP! That's right - 2026! These clients have a milestone anniversary to celebrate in 2026 and wanted to book a fabulous room at a Sandals resort for a special romantic celebration. By booking now, they were able to lock in current pricing with a small refundable deposit and will have until mid-2026 to make payments! Booking a future Birthday or Anniversary celebration now means you can splurge on a fabulous room (like an overwater bungalow or a villa with a private pool) because you will have lots of time to spread out your payments!

Let me help you plan something fabulous for your anniversary or birthday! [email protected]

I don’t just plan trips for Disney or Universal! While these two destinations sit at the heart of my offering, and are how I get to meet and form lasting relationships with many of my clients, they are a fraction of what I book! This year, I’ve planned trips for clients to Japan, South Africa, Hawaii, Europe (Italy, Spain, Greece, UK etc), the Caribbean and Mexico - just to name a few! And right now, I’m designing a trip for a client to South Korea! Whether you’re looking to explore somewhere near or far, get in touch! I’d love to put my travel expertise and experience to work for you! [email protected]

Planning a trip? Let me do the heavy lifting and put my expertise as a Certified Travel Advisor to work for you! Best part, my fees are built into most travel pricing so you don't have to pay for my services! And FYI, when you book yourself through that website, you're paying for a travel advisor even if you don't get the services of one! Book with me, get that personalized service you deserve!
