40th birthday
Reviewed By Brittany - Clark, NJ | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
We had Mark help us plan a trip for my daughter’s first visit and my 40th birthday. He was very patient and took time to explain different options for us. We never felt pressure to buy something we didn’t need or wouldn’t use. The trip was so amazing we planned another trip with Mark for November and will use him going forward for RV any Disney plans.

Call Mark ... you're welcome
Reviewed By NickiB - Springfield, MO | Traveled to Walt Disney World | Florida | USA
We've been to Disney World many times, because, I mean ... EPCOT. And we decided to work with Mark on our last trip, which included Universal, because I always get stuck doing all the family planning and that means that I just kinda carry around a lot of stress about it. But he made it easy and chill and then EPCOT was exactly how EPCOT always is, and just a great trip. Will call him again!

Great to Have an Expert Guide
Reviewed By alyssa - Chicago, IL | Traveled to Walt Disney World | Florida | USA
Thank you, Mark, so much for all the help you gave us with our Disney World vacation! Everyone had a great time, and it was a blessing to have your research on resorts and dining plans, and your experiences with them. Personally, walking into the park the first day knowing that a) you taught me the app, and b) your number was in my phone if I had a problem, made it all very chill right from the start. Aren't you glad? I didn't have to text you once ... the photos don't count lol. Safe travels to all!

Disneyland honeymoon
Reviewed By Marisol - Chicago | Traveled to Disneyland | California | USA
We got married up in Santa Barbara, which is a few hours north of Disneyland. But wanted to spend the evening and next couple days celebrating at Disneyland. He worked within our plans and even had nice dinner reservations for late that evening in the park. Nothing quite like watching the Disneyland fireworks over the castle, and pretending it's just for you and yours.
