About Me

Making Magic
Making Magic

Magical trips to Disney don't just happen. They require careful planning and expert knowledge. That is where I come in!  I am an experienced full-service travel agent who specializes in customized Disney dream vacations.

As a Disney Vacation Planning Expert, I will take the time to get to know you and your family so that, together, we can create the Disney itinerary that is perfect for your needs and desires. So instead of a cookie-cutter itinerary that may meet some of your expectations but not others, you can enjoy a magical tailor-made, Disney vacation.

And while I have a true passion for all things Disney, I also enjoy helping my clients with all of their vacation needs. My approach to planning a vacation is always the same—whether it's to Disney or to the Caribbean or to some far-flung destination. 

I always spend time talking with my clients so that I can thoroughly understand what they are hoping to get out of a particular vacation. We will then discuss the various package components that are available to them and select the must-do ones that will best fit into their time and financial requirements.

My favorite saying is "If you do nothing, nothing happens."  And, sadly, I know there are so many families who talk about taking that special vacation to Disney but just never get around to it. Then suddenly, they see that their children have morphed into teens. So instead of just talking about that magical Disney trip, let's finally make your dream a reality.

And guess what?  Teens DO love Disney!  So it's never too late to take your children, even if you have been putting it off for years.  I have two typical teenage boys (you know...nothing mom or dad says is ever cool), but they absolutely LOVE Disney. 

You just need a someone to help you plan an itinerary that is packed with teen-friendly options and attractions.

In addition to my years of going to Disney and arranging vacations for clients to the various properties, I am a Disney College of Knowledge Graduate and I also keep up-to-date on all of the latest Disney news and training!

I can't wait to see your Disney Dreams come true!

Best travel agent!
Reviewed By Katie - Englewood, NJ | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Summer has been amazing every time I’ve booked a trip with her! My friend and I randomly found her years ago and it was best find ever. Summer is quick to respond, which is great. I can be quite indecisive and she helped us to make the best choices. She got a feel for what we were looking for and would make reservations at the exact times we loved. The main trips we have used Summer for were Disney. Booking Disney is very tricky - they have so many rules. Summer knew all of them and made our trip so much easier! So grateful to have her!
Summer Smith responded
"Thank you so much for your kind words, Katie! It has honestly been a pleasure planning your vacations with you and I look forward to helping with many more!!"

Orbinati Honeymoon to St. Lucia
Reviewed By Marissa - Clinton, New York | Traveled to St. Lucia | Caribbean
Our experience working with Summer to plan our honeymoon to Saint Lucia was nothing short of incredible. From the very early planning stages all the way through our return home, she was attentive, patient, and genuinely invested in making our trip unforgettable. During the planning phase, Summer took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for in our honeymoon. When we had to pause our plans due to financial concerns, she didn’t disappear, she later reconnected with us to share an incredible deal in Saint Lucia that fit our budget perfectly. That level of thoughtfulness and follow-through meant so much to us. She truly cared about making our trip happen. Throughout the process, she was always available for a call and never made us feel like we were asking too many questions. She shared helpful insights about the resort and destination that made us feel confident and excited. She even personally called our resort and FunToSea Ferry to confirm arrangements and ensure everything would go smoothly. Knowing she was double-checking the details gave us complete peace of mind. When we arrived, everything was seamless. The resort was stunning, the ferry transfer was easy, and every detail felt thoughtfully handled. It truly was the best trip we have ever taken. As an extra special touch, Summer surprised us with thoughtful gifts for working with her — personalized cosmetic bags filled with travel essentials. They were beautiful, practical, and such a kind gesture that made us feel even more valued as clients. If you’re looking for a travel agent who is patient, responsive, detail-oriented, and truly dedicated to her clients, I cannot recommend Summer enough. From navigating budget concerns to ensuring every detail was confirmed, she made our honeymoon absolutely perfect. We are so grateful we chose to work with her and cannot wait to plan our next trip with her!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Disney Anniversary Celebration!
Hi Summer, It was great! Definitely very hot but that was to be expected. Great way to celebrate our anniversary. The restaurants and staff were very helpful and accommodating so vegan issues were not a problem at all. We were very glad that you were able to help us get the trip planned out so that it went so smoothly. Thanks so much and we'll keep you in mind for any future trips or for any friends and family who are going to plan theirs as well.
