Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, Aulani, Adventures by Disney — I plan it all, at no cost to you. 25+ years of Disney expertise, from first-time families to Disney Vacation Club members.
Resort categories, dining reservations, Lightning Lane, park hopping rules, crowd calendars, room requests — Disney has more moving parts than any other vacation. Here's how I help.
Disney releases discounts on existing reservations. I monitor your booking and automatically rebook if a better rate becomes available — something you'd never catch on your own.
Popular Disney restaurants book 60 days out. I know when to book, what's worth the price, and how to build a day-by-day itinerary that fits your family's pace — not Disney's crowd flow.
Value, Moderate, Deluxe — the difference is more than price. I match your family's priorities, transportation needs, and must-have amenities to the right resort every time.
I know the best weeks to visit, which parks to prioritize on which days, and how to avoid the worst crowds — so you spend more time in the parks and less time in lines.
Questions before you leave, issues while you're there — I'm available by text throughout your trip. You'll never be on your own trying to navigate Disney's customer service line.
I'm compensated directly by Disney — which means you get expert, personalized planning at the same price you'd pay booking it yourself. No catch. No hidden fees.
The most complex Disney destination — and the one where expert guidance pays off the most. 4 parks, 30+ resorts, hundreds of dining options. I've helped hundreds of families make the most of every day.

California's original Disney park has a completely different feel from Walt Disney World — more intimate, more nostalgic, easier to navigate. Great for first-timers and returning fans alike.
Disneyland Park • Disney California Adventure • Downtown Disney

"His services are completely free. No catch. No gimmicks. My only regret is that we didn't use him sooner!"

Read All Client Reviews →Yes — 100% free to you. I'm compensated by Disney directly, the same way a bank teller is paid by the bank rather than the customer. You pay the same price for your Disney vacation whether you book through me or directly through Disney.com.
For most families, 6–12 months in advance is ideal for peak seasons (spring break, summer, holidays). Dining reservations open 60 days before check-in, so the earlier you book your resort, the more time you have to secure the restaurant reservations you want.
It depends on your budget and priorities. For value, Disney's All-Star Resorts are clean and convenient. For theming and pool experiences, Disney's Caribbean Beach or Art of Animation are family favorites. For the best location and amenities, Boardwalk or Wilderness Lodge Villas stand out. I'll help you match the right resort to your family's specific needs.
For families who want everything handled — flights, hotels, guided tours, activities, and meals — Adventures by Disney delivers an exceptional experience. It's priced at a premium, but the all-inclusive nature and Disney's storytelling approach make it one of the best guided family travel products available. Reach out and I can walk you through which itineraries fit your family best.
