About Me

Where do you want to go?
Where do you want to go?

Thank you for viewing my profile!

I have been pursuing my career in travel since 2019.

My passion for travel started with my love of Walt Disney World.

My first trip was when I was a young child traveling with my family in the 1970's.  In the 1990's my husband and I enjoyed vacations to WDW as young adults, and then we began traveling to WDW every other year with our 2 sons.  I chaperoned a trip with 7 special needs young adults, when I was a para-educator.  In August of 2024, I planned a multi-generational family trip with 14 of us, including grandparents, children & grandchildren.  Currently, my husband and I travel to WDW at least once a year, enjoying the parks as empty-nesters.  

I love helping Disney World clients navigate, plan and experience the best of Walt Disney World.  I provide a stress free experience so your vacation starts before the vacation. 

I'm also very serious about my travel agent education & training.  Aside from all things Disney, I  also specialize in Cruising, Aruba, Florida & US Destinations as well as All-Inclusive Resorts.

I live in Connecticut with my husband, have two grown sons and in my spare time also enjoy the beach, reading, running and horseback riding.

Please see my testimonials and I hope I am a good fit for your vacation planning!

 

 

 

Why I love being a Travel Agent!

Why do I love being a travel agent? There is nothing more satisfying than hearing about a client's trip and all the wonderful things they enjoyed and experienced.

Disney is my specialty, but I love to book all types of travel.

My prices are exactly the same as the suppliers, but you get my assistance and planning services at no extra charge. When you book something on your own that I could have booked for you, you are not saving any money. I can help you save money by finding deals you might not know about - and if the price of your trip package drops after you book - I automatically apply the discount, if your trip is eligible!

Beautiful Nova Scotia
Reviewed By Dora. the explorer - Westport, Ma | Traveled to Nova Scotia | Canada
The trip to Nova Scotia was very enjoyable, Halifax was the location we liked the best. We did a hop-on hop-off bus tour that brought us to the Citadel Fort, Fairlawn Cemetery where some of the victims of the Titanic were buried. It was interesting and sad, lots of unidentified passengers. It was a good way to see the city. The Holland America cruise ship had good food and lots of activities and the crew members were great. Would use that cruise line again.

15 Year Wedding Anniversary
Reviewed By Ol Tash - Orange, CT | Traveled to Punta Cana | Dominican Republic | Caribbean
A huge shout-out to Jennifer Bourque Ford at Castle Dreams Travel for planning our 15th wedding anniversary trip for my husband and me to Majestic Elegance Punta Cana in just three weeks! ?? She was absolutely wonderful and so patient throughout the entire planning process. Although my husband and I experienced a few bumps during our first week, Jennifer and her team immediately stepped in and went above and beyond to make things right. Thanks to Jen, our second week was so much better, and we were able to truly relax and celebrate this special milestone together. We can't thank you enough for everything you did! ??

Best Disney World Family Trip!
Reviewed By Casey Z - Naugatuck CT | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
I can’t say enough good things about Jen and her Disney expertise! She helped me plan the perfect Disney getaway from start to finish! She gave me so many tips and ideas and I would have been lost without her help. She kept in contact leading up to the trip, and throughout in case I needed any more help or information. Can’t recommend her enough for your vacation needs!

My Travel Stories

Royal Caribbean Utopia - World's Biggest Weekend

As a relatively new travel agent of just about 5 years, my speciality and passion for Walt Disney World is what led me to being a travel agent. I’d never really had the desire to cruise before, despite testimonials from friends that cruising is THE BEST!  I had also received many comments saying “how can you sell a cruise if you’ve never ...
