I do the research, build the day-by-day plan, and handle the bookings — so you just show up and enjoy the trip.
A quick hello from Makenzie.
A generalist who books one big trip a year is guessing alongside you. These are the trips I plan again and again — I know the windows, the workarounds, and the small choices that change the whole vacation.
Orlando and Hollywood — park-day order, Express Pass math, the right hotel tier, and how to fold a Universal day into a wider trip without burning everyone out.
the studios, mappedWalt Disney World and Disneyland — dining strategy, ride-priority logic, resort match, ticket math, the right number of park days for the right pace. The list is long; the value compounds.
the parks, plannedCabin category guidance, dining and drink-package math, port-day excursions, and the difference between a closed-loop and an open-loop cruise — so the ship works for your whole group.
the ships, sortedHours of research, endless tabs, conflicting advice, and the nagging worry you booked the wrong hotel or missed the dining window. It shouldn't take a second job to plan a vacation.
You bring the idea. I turn it into a plan you can actually follow — and a vacation you don't have to manage.
Parks, ships, resorts, dates, and seasons — I compare the options so you don't have to live in a hundred browser tabs.
A clear day-by-day itinerary — park order, dining, transit, port days, rope-drop strategy — built around your group's pace and budget.
Reservations, dining windows, and confirmations — booked at the right time and optimized for crowds, budget, and what matters most to you.
Low-pressure and mostly handled by me. Your part is the fun part.
Fill out the quick inquiry below — a big idea or a fully formed plan, both work.
I research the options and put together a day-by-day plan tailored to your group, dates, and budget.
We adjust until it's exactly right. Nothing gets booked until you say go.
You travel. If anything comes up before or during the trip, I'm a text away.
I'm a Travel Advisor with Magical Travel Associates. I focus on a few destinations and plan them well, so you get a planner who knows the details instead of a generalist learning on your dime.
Universal (Orlando and Hollywood), Disney (Walt Disney World and Disneyland), and Royal Caribbean. I plan these often, so I know the windows and the workarounds.
You work directly with me from first message to "welcome home." Your plan is built for your group — not pulled off a shelf.
I'm supported by Magical Travel Associates, with supplier relationships and resources behind every trip I plan.
[REPLACE: add specific credentials when ready — e.g. Disney College of Knowledge graduate, Universal & Royal Caribbean training, number of trips planned. No fabricated numbers until Makenzie confirms.]
Real reviews go here as Makenzie's clients come home happy.
[REPLACE: client testimonial — a few sentences about how the planning felt and how the trip went.]
[REPLACE: client testimonial — what surprised them, what they'd have missed on their own.]
[REPLACE: client testimonial — why they'd book with Makenzie again.]
You pay the same price you'd pay booking it yourself — often less, never more. The research, the day-by-day plan, the bookings, the support: all of it at no extra cost to you.
The travel suppliers — the parks, resorts, and cruise lines — pay advisors a commission that's already built into the standard price. That price doesn't change whether you book through me or on your own. So you get an expert planner in the bargain, for free.
No. My planning service is free to you. I'm paid a commission by the travel suppliers, and that commission is already built into the standard price of your trip.
No — you pay the same price you'd pay booking directly, and often less when I can apply current promotions. You never pay more for working with me.
The parks, resorts, and cruise lines pay advisors a commission out of the trip cost you'd be paying them anyway. It doesn't change your price — it just means you get a planner included.
Text me first and I'll help sort it out — usually within the hour. For true emergencies (medical, theft, lost passport), call local emergency services first, then loop me in.
My focus is Universal Studios (Orlando and Hollywood), Disney (Walt Disney World and Disneyland), and Royal Caribbean cruises. I'm happy to plan beyond them too — just ask.
The earlier the better — the best dining, excursions, and room categories go first, especially on holiday dates. As soon as you have a rough window, reach out and I'll tell you exactly when to lock things in.
Absolutely. Bring a vibe, a budget, or just "we need a break" and I'll help you figure out the right trip. Start anywhere and I'll take it from there.
Takes about 5 minutes. Skip anything that doesn't fit yet — I'll respond within 48 hours.
