Cruise, Disney & Inclusive Family Travel

Ocean breezes and sunshine

I’m Josh, owner of Mattis Travel, and my approach is simple: “Travel planned around you — not around what’s typical.” I believe your vacation should reflect who you are, what you enjoy, and what you need to feel comfortable exploring the world.

I help couples, families, solo travelers, and multigenerational groups turn their vacation ideas into thoughtfully planned trips. Whether you know exactly where you want to go or only have a feeling in mind, I start by listening. You don’t need a finished itinerary or even a destination to reach out.

**Cruises, Disney & Time Together**

I focus on family cruise planning, Disney vacations, and trips that bring people together. I help travelers compare cruise lines, ships, cabins, and itineraries based on their interests, budget, and travel needs. I also help with excursions and arrangements before and after a cruise, so the planning extends beyond choosing a ship.For Disney vacations, I help families sort through resort options, park priorities, and the pace that works for their group. My goal is to help you make informed choices and enjoy the anticipation of your trip without feeling overwhelmed by every detail.I also plan romantic getaways, Caribbean resort vacations, and milestone celebrations. Anniversaries, honeymoons, birthdays, and long-awaited family trips deserve care that reflects the occasion.

**Inclusive Travel With Your Needs in Mind**

Accessible and sensory-friendly travel planning is an important part of my work. I welcome travelers of all backgrounds, abilities, and body types, including LGBTQ+ couples and families.I take time to understand mobility considerations, sensory preferences, and other needs that may shape your experience. That might mean researching accommodations, discussing transportation, exploring excursion options, or allowing for a more relaxed itinerary. I work with suppliers to clarify relevant accessibility details and requests so you can better assess whether an option fits your needs.For multigenerational trips, I consider the whole group. Different ages, interests, energy levels, and budgets can make planning complicated. I help find opportunities for shared experiences while leaving room for individual preferences and downtime.

**How I Work With You**

I begin with a conversation about your priorities: where you’d like to go, who’s traveling, your budget, and what would make the trip feel special. Then I research options, explain the differences, and help you choose a direction.My clients have trusted me with trips to Hawaii, Rome, Jamaica, and the Caribbean. Their feedback reflects what I value most: listening carefully, answering questions, staying responsive, and helping travelers feel organized and prepared. Whether I’m recommending that you reserve a rental car early or helping you select an excursion, I want my guidance to make a practical difference.What I love about the travel industry is the opportunity to turn uncertainty into excitement. A destination you’ve dreamed about can feel out of reach when you don’t know where to start. I enjoy helping you work through those questions and build a trip you can look forward to.
