About Me

Disney & Universal Travel Specialist

Hi Friends! My name is Kelli Donohue and I am the owner of DizN Vacations at CS Elements Travel. You might also know me as the mom from DizN with the Donohues (@dizNdonohues) on YouTube and TikTok! 

I have over 40 years of personal Disney and Universal travel experience ranging from the Walt Disney World Resort all the way to Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort .... and then on to the Universal Orlando Resort. To say I am well versed is an understatement. 

I've not only grown up Disney/Universal but am still living and breathing both on a daily basis. I have been an active theme park travel agent since early 2017. I make it a point to be on property at either the Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line or Universal every 3 -5 months so that I can experience any changes and/or new offerings first hand.  This enables me to bring you up to the minute information and what to accurately expect on your vacation.  Not only do I explain it all to my clients, in detail, but I also archive all of it on my many social media pages. I can be found on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook at @dizndonohues or @diznvacations. I also personally operate a facebook group called "Destination DizN and Beyond', that is a great resource for Theme Park News and a safe place to ask questions about your trip.

My clients receive constant price monitoring and personalized concierge services from start to finish. All trips are customizable and I can do as much or as little as you would like. 

DizN is where bigger and better adventures await!  I can't wait to assist you on your most magical vacation to date!

Mother-Daughter Trip of a Lifetime!
Reviewed By Jen M. - Crown Point, IN | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Kelli was amazing at helping my plan my trip with my teenage daughter. It had been eight years since we've been to Disney, so a LOT has changed. Kelli was incredibly reachable and helpful from the very first question, until after we got back. She explains everything in thorough detail well in advance, and all the way through the planning experience. I had to text her on our travel day, and a couple times during the trip with silly questions, and she responded right away, and it was very helpful! She definitely puts your vacation on a pedestal, and it shows from the jump! My daughter and I had the trip of a lifetime, with 7 park days filled with amazing memories! Thanks to Kelli, it was smooth and stress- free!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Memorable, Magical Summer Vacation
Reviewed By Angie - Spring Hill, TN | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
We will definitely be utilizing Kelli with DizN Vacations in the future for other trips. As a parent, vacationing is not really a vacation, but Kelli helped make the process as easy as possible. She was patient with me in my delays of necessary steps on my part, and helped remind me what I needed to do. She was available when I needed her. Our kids had an amazing, memorable time, which is exactly what I wanted when I requested Kelli to help me plan this trip. We did experience a few app hiccups that were all related to the specific park, and Kelli helped me calm down and navigate the process.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Great service for Disney Newbies
Reviewed By MelissaE - Valparaiso, IN | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Amazing service! Kelli really goes above and beyond to answer questions and make sure your vacation is a success. I especially loved the helpful tips she provided for each park and how to plan out the day with Genie+. When we were on our trip she was quick to respond with questions that arose, which we very much appreciated as first timers!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
