About Me

Your Disney, Universal & Beyond Travel Expert

I've spent years exploring Disney Parks with my own family, learning which Universal rides are worth the wait, and discovering those hidden gems in Hawaii that aren't in the guidebooks. When you work with me, you're getting someone who genuinely loves these destinations and has researched the details that make trips smoother – like the best park strategy for EPCOT® or which charming European restaurants locals actually frequent. I treat every trip like I'm planning it for my own family.

Making Disney Cruises Unforgettable

Making Disney Cruises Unforgettable
Disney at sea hits differently! It's taking the Disney magic and service from the parks and resorts, and sailing away into the sunset. Having cruised with Disney multiple times, I've explored everything from stateroom selection (location matters more than you think) to navigating embarkation day ...Read More ▶

Maximizing Universal Magic for Families

Maximizing Universal Magic for Families
Universal has grown into something incredible! From Hollywood's movie magic, Orlando's themed perfection, and now Epic Universe's next-level innovation, there is so much to explore. But with great parks comes great planning needs. I've mastered the art of Universal strategy: when to arrive, which...Read More ▶

50+ Walt Disney World® Resort visits and counting!
My Disney journey began at age 8 with my very first Walt Disney World® visit, and that spark of magic has only grown brighter over the decades. When people ask if I've "grown out of" Disney, I smile and tell them the truth: my love for Disney has only deepened with time! With over 50 visits to Wa...Read More ▶

The best trip ever!
Reviewed By Donna B - North Aurora, Illinois | Traveled to Walt Disney World | Florida | USA
IN EVERY WAY, Kristen went out of her way to help us be best prepared for this wonderful WDW trip she designed for us. For example, we ran into a kink in the dining service (not our fault or Kristen's , the restaurant) and she gave us the greatest advice! BIG BIG thank you to her! She was our Mickey lifejacket, for sure, in all things. What an amazing expert! And you need one, even if you have been there a number of times --- the place is getting more popular (as we age!) We no longer get around as "kids" but want to, and she helped so much!

We once were lost and she helped guide us back!
Reviewed By DisneyTito2000 - Chicago, IL | Traveled to Bahamas | Caribbean
Kristen has SOOOOO much knowledge in her field of travel, she will answer your questions before you ask them! What we were most impressed and appreciative of is when unforeseen situations arose (loss of cellular communication, lost reservations) Kristen went above and beyond to assist in getting everything sorted and back on track! Even though we weren’t speaking face to face, I could tell she was doing it all with a smile on her face, that’s just how good she is!!
Kristen Johnson responded
"Thank you so much! I'm so glad I was able to help with unexpected, so you could all enjoy your trip. I loved planning with your family and look forward to another adventure in the future!"
