So thankful for Christine!
Reviewed By klgdc - Ottawa, Ontario | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Christine helped my family to plan a vacation to Mexico without special needs daughter. She is very high needs and we knew nothing about what accommodations were available to us. Christine took as much time as we needed to walk us through everything. She followed up on all of our questions and put everything in place for us so we didn't have to worry. She was extremely responsive, answering my emails very quickly and even offering to get involved when we had an accommodation issue at the resort. I will100% use her services the next time we travel and recommend her to any family needing this type of support. Thank for your help Christine! Our trip was a success thanks to you!

Amazing Disney trip thanks to Christine Lutz!
Reviewed By DisneyFan - Walt Disney World | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
I highly recommend Christine Lutz for anyone planning a Disney vacation. From the moment I contacted her, she was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and dedicated to making our trip magical. Planning a Disney trip can be overwhelming, especially when your child has special needs. Christine took the stress out of the process by listening to our preferences and creating a customized itinerary perfect for our family. She handled booking our flights, resort, park tickets, and helped us navigate Disney's Accessibility Service and accommodations. Her invaluable tips and advice, along with prompt and thorough responses to our questions, made the experience seamless. Thanks to Christine's expertise, we had an unforgettable Disney experience. Everything was well-organized, allowing us to relax and enjoy our vacation without worries. I will definitely use Christine again for our next trip! Highly recommended!

Well Organized Trip!
Reviewed By Stacey - Kemptville, ON | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Christine provided exceptional assistance in organizing our trip to Mexico. She streamlined the booking process, sent timely reminders as the payment due date approached, and ensured we had all the necessary information prior to our departure. Additionally, she proactively checked in with us to address any questions we had leading up to the trip. During our travels, she also reached out to inform us of a norovirus outbreak in the area, allowing us to take the appropriate precautions. It was a pleasure to work with her, and I will certainly contact her for our future travel arrangements!
