Disney World
We worked with Andrea on a trip to Disney World as a family trip and added bonus of our 2 year old's birthday to see Mickey! Andrea provided many updates over the time planning this while Disney was constantly changing their policies. She kept us in the loop of important booking dates and gave us suggestions on things our family might enjoy based on our preferences. She made booking this trip simple when Disney is known for being time consuming and detailed. Thanks to Nicole we ended up with a little more rain and wind than anticipated. Andrea checked in with us before the trip, before the storm came, and again during to make sure we were all OK and aware. We appreciate her taking the time to check up on us even on the trip!
