Behind the Agent
Hi, Mary! Tell us a little bit about yourself.
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
If I could travel anywhere, I would go to South Africa I have always been fascinated with going on a safari trip to see all of the animals in South Africa in person. This is on my list of places to travel and I hope to do it through Adventures by Disney!
Why did you become a travel planner?
What advice would you give someone going to Disney for the very first time?
My best advice for someone who is going to Disney World for the first time is to take it all in stride. You will not be able to see everything there is to see, so enjoy all of the moments you have with your family/friends. Stress less – enjoy more!
What is your favorite part of the job?
My FAVORITE part of being a travel advisor is hearing from my clients when they return from their trip and how much fun they had! You cannot beat being thanked for making their family’s vacation so memorable. It will never get old!
Which Disney Park is your favorite?
My favorite Disney World park is Magic Kingdom. All of the parks have their perks, but I feel like every time I walk into Magic Kingdom, it is magical! This is the park everyone thinks of when they think of Disney World with Cinderella’s castle right in the middle as you turn the corner to enter the park. So much magic!
