About Me

Hubbard Glacier - September 2025
Hubbard Glacier - September 2025

I have personally traveled to Alaska six times and have experienced everything from camping with friends to staying in a three-bedroom Garden Villa on a cruise ship with family spanning three generations. In order to really experience Alaska, you must include a land tour and travel by rail to Denali National Park. I will help guide you in the decision-making process and will be available to help answer questions about tours and excursions along the way.

Most magical family vacation!
Reviewed By Kira J. - Laurel, MD | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
I was so impressed with Donna’s knowledge and expertise of Disney World! From booking a resort that fit our budget, to knowing the ins and outs of traveling with small children, Donna was amazing. Her guidance in choosing the best restaurants, including character dining, provided us with delicious food and incredible experiences for our family! We absolutely loved Akershus! We were able to get the most out of our time at each park and even relax! Whether you’re a repeat Disney visitor or a first-timer, I’m sure Donna will be able to make your vacation magical! We can’t wait to book with her again!

"Kira, I love planning vacations for families and am fortunate to have been able to work with your family so much over the years. Here's to the next vacation!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing weekend getaway
Reviewed By Jenna - Lansdale | Traveled to Key West ~ Florida ~ USA
Donna is top notch! I give her a price or a location and she runs with it. Always helpful in making a smart vacation choice. She is always warm and welcoming when you ask questions, even ones that you might think you should already know. She is always quick to respond and also give you helpful tips. She even checks in with you on the trip to make sure things are going smooth! I would never book with anyone other than her.
Donna DeGiacomo responded
"Jenna, you are too kind. It's always fun to help plan your vacations and I'm so pleased that you enjoyed your most recent cruise. Excited to plan your next adventure soon!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

First Time Disney Trip
Reviewed By Danielle - Pottstown, PA | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
My husband and I decided it was time to plan a Disney trip for the kids. I had only been to Disney once when I was 4 years old and planning felt very overwhelming. Everyone I spoke to have different advice and different suggestions. Luckily I found Donna! Her enthusiasm and attention to detail were impeccable. She took her time to understand our families age range, interests and even food preferences. Any unplanned issue that arose Donna was there to solve it. She was honestly there from start to finish.

While in Disney my daughter got ill and Donna gave me step by step instructions to get the necessary medical attention.

We will definitely be using Donna again and I can’t recommend her enough!
Donna DeGiacomo responded
"Danielle, you are too kind. Disney really can be overwhelming, especially when everyone who has been previously shares their advice and planning tips trying to help, but muddying the water. I'm so glad that you reached out, and can't wait to plan a trip with you in the future that will hopefully be Flu-free! "
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing Disney vacation!
Reviewed By Middersfamily - Elizabethtown, PA | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Donna is extremely helpful and was very knowledgeable with Disney. We used Donna's services for three trips.
Donna DeGiacomo responded
"Three trips already, Amy! Wow. It's so rewarding when clients come back to me vacation after vacation, and I can't wait to plan again with you soon!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Phenomenally organized week at WDW
Reviewed By Steph - Lawrenceville, Ga | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Donna helped us organize and plan every day of our Disney World trip, which was critical since we had our 2 and 4 year old plus grandparents. She made recommendations based on OUR interests and really helped design the most ideal week ever. With so much going on at one park, it was helpful she was able to get us to all the places we all wanted to go (even knew the importance of pointing out restrooms and good places to find some quiet time with the kids!)
Donna DeGiacomo responded
"Disney with little ones is a WHOLE different experience, but one that every parent (and grandparent!) should have at least once. It was an honor to have been able to help your family enjoy that time together!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    Cruising in Alaska: Choosing your Stateroom!

    When you are ready to take that bucket list vacation and set sail in Alaska, there is one question you will undoubtedly ask: Which cabin should I choose? As someone who often cruises six times a year and spends over 30 days at sea most years, I get asked a lot about my thoughts on what stateroom to select when booking a cruise. While, in gen...
