About Me

My happy place in a galaxy far, far away!
My happy place in a galaxy far, far away!

As a Magic Maker®/Concierge Travel Designer with Off to Neverland Travel® since 2012, I take great pride in the work that I do to ensure my clients have a seamless, customized, and memorable vacation experience.

I grew up on the west coast in Seattle, but now I live on the east coast in New Jersey (with several years in the middle in Boston for college) with my family. My husband and I have three children - two in High School and one in Elementary School, so I have a lot of experience traveling with kids of all ages.

My passion for travel - and the Disney Parks in particular - began when I was young. I was lucky enough to travel to both Disneyland® and Walt Disney World® Resort in the same year and I was immediately drawn to the magic. Those first trips (as well as many other family vacations when I was young) are among some of my favorite memories and it's why I believe so strongly that family travel is so powerful and so rewarding. Whether it's a trip to a theme park, a cruise, a beach resort, a National Park, a metropolitan city, or beyond, each vacation gives us the opportunity to make memories as a family and expand our knowledge of the world around us.

Every time we travel, we return home with new and amazing memories to cherish - I want nothing less for my clients. It is truly my passion to help you see how travel experiences can not only enrich your life, but also create memories to last a lifetime. My personal travel experiences, my continuing education with suppliers and destinations, along with my attention to detail, all contribute to my ability to create a customized travel experience for YOU.

Whether your Neverland is a theme park, a beach, the ocean, a National Park, or somewhere else, I can help you get there and make your vacation dreams come true!

Magical Disney Trip Planning
Reviewed By Wagener Family - Livingston, NJ | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Megan is an amazing vacation planner! We have used her services for 3 magical Disney World trips, and will definitely contact her for future trips. She is always very responsive, highly organized, and full of great trip suggestions which fit our varied interests. She excels in organizing the daily itineraries and has always flawlessly managed our preferred dinning reservations. She helps organize our fast passes so we can maximize our park time. There are so many price points for Disney accommodations and Megan is very knowledgeable about the various hotel options, and she always remains mindful of our budget throughout all stages of the planning process. We love working with Megan to plan our family adventures at Disney! She is truly passionate what she does and makes it easy for busy parents to sit back and relax, knowing that everything has been covered!

7 years of fantastic trips!
Reviewed By Farah G. - Livingston, NJ | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
We have planned 6 trips to Walt Disney World, 1 trip to Beaches (Turks & Caicos), and 1 “almost” trip to Disneyland with Megan (the “almost” unfortunately due to the pandemic). If not for Covid, we’d be planning another already! Megan is extremely knowledgeable, and provides incredible guidance on everything from hotels, to dining, to FastPass planning, based on the specific needs of your family. As our children have gotten older, she has helped “age” our planning and experiences as well. Megan also always comes through in a pinch, often snagging a hard to get FastPass or dining reservation!
Megan Paradiso responded
"Thank you, Farah! After such a crazy year, your words are extremely touching and validate both how hard I work for my clients as well as how much I love what I do!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Magical 1st Disney World Trip!
Reviewed By ZCarter - Livingston, NJ | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
We recently used Megan to plan our family’s very first Disney World vacation, and the entire experience was exceptional. Megan was incredibly knowledgeable and stayed responsive throughout the whole planning process. From start to finish, she guided us every step of the way. We especially appreciated how she offered recommendations and considerations tailored to our family’s needs—along with honest feedback about what to do and what to skip. She also helped us secure reservations for some of the most sought-after restaurants and experiences, which made our trip even more special. We couldn’t have asked for a better planner. We highly recommend her to anyone needing guidance, especially if it’s your first trip to Disney World!
Megan Paradiso responded
"Thank you so much for your very kind words, Zerimar, and for your support of my small business! It was an absolute pleasure working with and planning for your family! I hope that you are left with a lifetime of magical memories and I look forward to working with you again in the future to make your vacation dreams come true!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Alaska bucket list

12 day land and sea Alaska excursion that was wonderful….just as Megan advised. Her planning assistance, cruise line recommendations, excursion ideas, suggested economies and overall coordination and her fabulous all in one place information resource ap reaffirmed our absolute trust in Neverland Travel. So much so that we are already planning another trip with Megan’s help.
Megan Paradiso responded

My Travel Stories

Paradise found off the shores of Kualoa Ranch

Vacation in Paradise - Oahu, Hawaii

During the summer of 2023, my family traveled to the island of Oahu for some sun, sand, and time together to make memories. It was my second trip to Hawaii, having visited Maui with my own parents years before, but my family's first visit. Since we live on the East Coast, we wanted to make the travel time worth it and were able to plan a 12-nigh...
