About Me

Who This Is For If you've ever thought about an Adventures by Disney trip but weren't sure which itinerary is right for your family, which cabin category is worth the upgrade, or what to expect from the Adventure Guides — I can answer every one of those questions from personal experience, not brochures.

I'm a College of Disney Knowledge graduate and have personally traveled Adventures by Disney numerous times from the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, to the Amazon in Ecuador, to the Danube River in Europe, and several in between!  

What Makes ABD Worth It Adventures by Disney isn't just a guided tour — it's a completely different way to experience the world. Disney-trained Adventure Guides handle every detail so your family can focus entirely on the experience, with VIP access to extraordinary places and events rarely available to the public. I've seen this firsthand, and it genuinely delivers.

I Specialize In

  • ABD land adventures — Europe, Australia, Asia, and beyond
  • ABD river cruises on the Rhine, Danube, and Seine with AmaWaterways
  • ABD expedition cruises — Galápagos and Antarctica departures
  • Combining ABD trips with pre/post extensions for a fully custom journey
  • Adult-exclusive and family departures — I know which itineraries suit which travelers

 

FAQ

Q: Is Adventures by Disney worth the cost compared to planning a trip on my own?

A: For families who want a truly seamless, immersive experience without the stress of logistics, absolutely yes. I've done it myself and the access, the guides, and the Disney-level service are genuinely unlike anything you can replicate independently.

 

Q: Which ABD itinerary should my family do first?

A: It depends entirely on your family's travel style, ages of your children, and bucket list destinations. I've personally done Australia and the European river cruises and can walk you through every itinerary in detail — reach out and let's find your perfect match.
