About Me

Embarking on a journey to the enchanting world of Disney with a large group can seem like a daunting task, but for those who have mastered the art, it's an adventure filled with unforgettable moments and cherished memories.

As a seasoned traveler and expert in orchestrating family trips to Disney World, I recently had the pleasure of leading a group of 14, comprised of nine kids and five adults, through the magical realms of all four Disney World theme parks. Serving as their tour guide for an entire week, I ensured that not a moment was wasted and that every member of our co-parenting family experienced the wonder of Disney to the fullest.

Planning and organization are the cornerstones of a successful Disney vacation, especially when navigating the parks with a large group. From coordinating dining reservations to mapping out daily itineraries, meticulous preparation is key to ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

With my extensive knowledge of the Disney Parks and years of experience in traveling with children, I meticulously crafted a plan that catered to the diverse interests and needs of our group.

Throughout our adventure, we ventured into each park, immersing ourselves in the magic of iconic attractions and enchanting experiences. From the thrills of Space Mountain to the whimsy of It's a Small World, we explored every corner of the parks, ensuring that no ride was left unridden and no character encounter was missed.

Despite the hustle and bustle of navigating crowded walkways and long queues, my expertise in maneuvering through the parks efficiently ensured that no one ever got lost, and our group remained together every step of the way.

One of the most rewarding aspects of leading this journey was witnessing the joy and excitement on the faces of our children as they experienced the magic of Disney alongside their co-parents. From the laughter-filled moments on exhilarating rides to the heart warming encounters with beloved Disney characters, our trip was a testament to the power of family bonding and shared experiences.

As the days passed and our adventures unfolded, the bonds between us grew stronger, and the memories we created together became treasures that we will carry with us for years to come.

In the end, our Disney World adventure was more than just a vacation, it was a testament to the resilience of family, the magic of Disney, and the joy of creating lasting memories with those we love. And as we bid farewell to the enchanting world of Disney, we left with hearts full of gratitude and spirits uplifted by the magical moments we shared together.

Until next time, Disney World!  We'll be back to create more memories and embark on new adventures as a family united in the magic of Disney.

First Universal Trip
Reviewed By Sherryk75 - PA | Traveled to Universal Orlando | Florida | USA
Karli was awesome from step one. The introduction! I warned her I was going to be most likely a difficult client with a ton of uncertainty and questions, and she was a total sweetheart! She helped calm my nerves throughout and came up with a plan for my family and then changed it multiple times on my new requests! She was thorough and attentive. She helped save me money on my trip when the prices dropped. Karli was also helpful to me the day of my trip and throughout the trip as well. Helping me to decide where to eat and such. Highly recommend Karli! Thank you again for a Great trip!

Reviewed By Matt - CT milford | Traveled to Walt Disney World | Florida | USA
My experience working with Karli was great and have only been home two weeks and already contacted her about plans for our next Disney trip. I am pretty sure she set the world record for fastest lightning lanes booked. I am a very particular person I like things a certain way and at certain times and she exceeded my expectations every step of the way.

Made sense of the information overload!
Reviewed By Vicki S - Duanesburg NY | Traveled to Universal Orlando | Florida | USA
We found Karli after we had booked our Universal trip on our own. But I got in touch anyway and learned that I could hire her just to help plan our itinerary. And that helped so much. I had already been trying to make sense of Universal”s website and their app. And I had been on Facebook and found pages dedicated to navigating Universal. Needless to say, I was confused and overwhelmed. Karli started out with a Zoom call with us to learn what we were interested in doing and more about us and she helped design an itinerary that was perfect for what we wanted. Ultimately we did two more calls with her, and I went on the trip armed with a list of our must do and nice to do activities. And even more important, an understanding of the layout of the parks and how to get from point A to point B. The one thing I really liked is that she was not about squeezing as much as possible into every minute. She encouraged us to take our time, soak it in, and look for those special moments. And we had plenty of those. I highly recommend her no matter where you are in the planning process.

I have been going to Disney my whole life
Reviewed By M. Chop - Connecticut | Traveled to Walt Disney World | Florida | USA
Every year planning and booking gets hard and this year I finally decided to use a travel agent and Karli came highly recommended from a friend and I couldn’t be happier with that decision! She helped every step of the way and it was one of the best trips we’ve had. I didn’t have to worry about anything, she was good at navigating the app and changing Lighting Lanes it really took the stressful parts out so we could just show up and have fun! Already planning our next visit and will use Karli again!

Very friendly and excellent expertise!
Reviewed By MomEof2Boys - Mobile, AL | Traveled to Universal Orlando | Florida | USA
Karli was so helpful in booking our trips. She also gave insider tips and developed a jam up itinerary so we could see the most and make the most of our time in Universal. We even needed assistance to book a scooter for a family member while vacationing. She went above and beyond to help us find one after hours. She is very knowledgeable and worked within our budget. Thank you Karli!!

    Her knowledge was amazing!
    I am so thankful to Karli for planning my families first trip to Universal. The knowledge she shared and the plans she made helped tremendously. The things I would normally worry and obsess about I didn’t! I had a clear vision of where we were going and what to expect. I was nervous about navigating the parks but thanks to Karlis informative walk through videos I felt confident and comfortable the moment we got on the bus to head to the parks. I knew to go right when everyone was going left. I knew the “secret” paths to take for a shortcut to Donkey Kong. So instead of staring at the map on my phone I was able to be present and I am so grateful for that!

    Thank you, Karli, for your excellent help and guidance with my family's first trip to Disney. It was wonderful. I had never been to Disney and didn't know where to begin with planning, so your strong knowledge and availability to answer questions as well as to make great suggestions was crucial to building our strong itinerary for Disney. Great job and thank you very much!!

    A Happy Disney Client
    Karli has a true gift!! She knows exactly what to ask to pinpoint your needs and interests! My daughter was invited to perform in Disney which meant many additional activities needed to be fit into an already packed schedule. With her expertise, she helped us plan our days out including our fast passes. Everything worked perfectly!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge Karli!! You managed to add additional Magic to the most magically place on earth!
