Before hiring Allison from Practically Perfect Travel, I was really struggling with two things: money and overwhelm. Disney is an expensive trip, and it’s also incredibly overwhelming to plan! There are so many shows, rides, and decisions to make, from figuring out how to get there to organizing the order of attractions.
It made a huge difference that Allison took care of all the reservations! The questionnaires she sent were thorough and really helped narrow down the overwhelming number of restaurant and ride options. After sharing my preferences, she made everything happen seamlessly.
The most valuable part of her service? It was definitely the itinerary. We actually called it our “lifeline” throughout our Disney days. Whenever we had a question or needed direction in the parks, I’d refer to it, and it always had the information we needed—whether it was the next ride or where to stand for a show. My 7-year-old daughter even reminded me not to leave it behind, saying, “Don’t forget your lifeline, Mom!” It kept us organized and stress-free the entire trip.
If I had to describe my experience with Allison in one word, it would be “stress-saving.” Her expert knowledge allowed us to enjoy the parks without the usual stress that comes with a Disney trip. I honestly can’t think of anything she could have done better. The only thing that threw us off was finding the perfect spot for the evening show, but that wasn’t her fault—they had changed the designated area to disabled seating, and she couldn’t have known that!
I’ve already told many friends—“Hire Allison! You won’t regret it.” I can’t thank her enough for all the extra tips and late nights she spent helping me prepare. She even calmed me down when I started feeling unprepared nights before the trip! It was a fantastic experience, and I couldn’t have done it without her.
