“Because your time is precious—and your vacation should be effortless."

Hi, I’m Kim Shanahan, and I’m passionate about turning travel dreams into beautifully organized, stress-free realities. With over 15 years of experience in wedding and event planning and now as a professional travel advisor, I specialize in helping busy families, couples, and groups enjoy seamless, customized vacations designed around what matters most to them—connection, relaxation, and unforgettable memories.I work with travelers who value expert guidance, personal service, and exceptional experiences. Whether you’re planning your family’s next Disney or Universal adventure, a romantic honeymoon in paradise, a sun-soaked all-inclusive getaway, or a luxurious cruise to tropical destinations, I’m here to make it happen—effortlessly.

Travel has always been my passion and my happy place. There’s something magical about discovering new destinations, creating lifelong memories, and experiencing the joy of travel with the people you love most. I’ve visited Walt Disney World more than 20 times, sailed on multiple cruise lines, and enjoyed countless Caribbean and beach vacations. My favorite trips always include warm weather, ocean views, and that blissful feeling of escape—because for me, water truly is my happy place.Having experienced so many of the destinations I recommend, I bring firsthand insight and genuine enthusiasm to every itinerary I create. I know how to anticipate challenges, navigate the small details, and ensure that every part of your journey—from booking to boarding—is smooth, personalized, and worry-free.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of helping hundreds of clients design vacations that fit their dreams, lifestyles, and budgets. From multigenerational family trips and destination weddings to romantic honeymoons, luxury escapes, and group cruises, I treat every trip as if it were my own—crafted with care, creativity, and attention to detail.As a Certified Disney, Universal, and Cruise Specialist, I stay up-to-date on the latest destinations, promotions, and insider opportunities, ensuring my clients always receive the best experiences and value. Backed by an award-winning agency, I have access to exclusive partnerships, special offers, and VIP-level support—allowing me to deliver the kind of white-glove service today’s traveler deserves.

My years in event planning taught me the power of organization, timing, and personalization. I pride myself on being responsive, resourceful, and relentlessly detail-oriented—because your vacation deserves the same precision and care as any special event. From our first consultation to your welcome-home message, you’ll always have a trusted professional by your side who genuinely cares about your experience.

At the heart of it all, I believe travel is so much more than a trip—it’s a chance to reconnect, recharge, and create moments that will last a lifetime. I don’t just plan vacations; I curate experiences designed around your story.So whether you’re ready to set sail through the Caribbean, relax at a world-class all-inclusive, or experience the wonder of Disney or Universal—I’d love to help make it effortless, memorable, and perfectly you.

"Because the world is waiting… and your next great adventure is just a conversation away."

I reached out to Kim for a last-minute trip to Disney with my daughter, and she truly exceeded my expectations. She secured the accommodations and dining reservations we were hoping for, making the entire experience seamless. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Disney magic
Reviewed By Lis - Iowa | Traveled to Galveston | Texas | USA
It was our first time doing a Disney Cruise didn’t know what to do or how to start. Kim was amazing helped us with each step. Was there to answer questions and remind us of processes along the way. She was in full communication throughout before during and after. Had lots of experience and insider knowledge and if she didn’t have the answer, she was looking for it. Couldn’t have booked this cruise without her.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Magical Disney World Vacation
Reviewed By Mandee - Montrose, PA | Traveled to Walt Disney World | Florida | USA
Kim was a fantastic agent! She went above and beyond to make sure everything we wanted to do was included in our trip. She made an itinerary for us to have an idea as to what we could do to save time and our feet. She stayed in contact with me through the entire planning process to make sure we didn't need to add or remove anything. She gave excellent recommendations. She knows a lot of information for where we were going. She called up to 2 days before we were leaving to make sure we were all set with everything. I will definitely use Kim again for our next trip!

Her First Disney and His Birthday!!!
Reviewed By CharBDayFirstTrip - Charlotte NC | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
Sincerely Kim was fantastic from beginning to end! I am a total birthday grouch and I thought this year I’m going to change that. I took a page out of my bride’s playbook and planned my own birthday weekend in Disney. I was super busy at work and a bit overwhelmed with all the Disney strategies. Kim wiped that all away. She made the whole process easy. She was there to answer all our questions and she even helped out after we arrived with some last minute details. We had such a great time we’ve already booked a return trip with Kim’s help. Super thankful for Kim! She carried the torch and made sure we didn’t miss a thing!!!
Kim Shanahan responded

I loved helping with both the planning and the last-minute details. I’m thrilled you had a great time and can’t wait to help you with your next adventure! "

One of our favorite days was our stop in Key West. We rented a golf cart right near the port, which is a grea way to explore the island. Our morning started with br...

Client Testimonials

Disney During Hurricane Miltion
Me and my family cannot thank you enough for the fantastic support, suggestions, and expertise that you provided. We spoke of you often around our house and how privileged and "ahead of the game" we felt with our own personal vacation planner! You were always quick to get back to us no matter how small the question and even made yourself available late evenings and weekends if needed. I of course have to mention the comfort you provided during the challenges of Hurricane Milton. You really put me and my family at ease during a stressful set of circumstances. We will certainly go to you for any future Disney needs and will refer you to friends and family.
