I'm Alison, founder of Magic Expeditions!

My first Disney experience was a visit to Disneyland in California when I was just 8 years old.  I remember falling in love with Splash Mountain and riding it over and over!  As an adult, vacations to Disney have been so magical for our family.  I want everyone to be able to have that experience.  I will never forget my children’s faces when they took their first ride on Dumbo or saw the castle for the first time.  When you are on a Disney vacation, the outside world melts away.  I want to help families "uncomplicate" the Disney planning process so you can just enjoy your precious time together.  

My favorite Walt Disney World restaurant:  Le Cellier in Epcot
My insider tip:  Be at the parks first thing in the morning if you can!
My favorite Disney character:  Ariel
The first thing I do when I arrive at Disney is:  Head straight to the Magic Kingdom and get a Dole Whip! 

Client Review

We visited Disney (Orlando) and used Magic Expeditions to plan the entire trip. Alison was extremely helpful in both setting up our trip and providing guidance on what to visit/see each day for all the parks. We hit Epcot, Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios each 1 day and Magic Kingdom 3 days (grandkids age 5 and 3). Alison set us up with great restaurants in each park for our table service and made great recommendations for quick serves and snacks as well. We had two separate rooms since my daughter's family went as well, and Alison worked to get our rooms next to each other and the location was perfect...very near a bus stop. Alison works to get you the best deal and I can't recommend her enough to make a very complex/intimidating process so simple. She even produced a daily guide for us with things to do while in the park...which we constantly referred to and it was outstanding. My 5-year of grandson's favorite part of the trip was Jedi training in Hollywood Studios....which Alison recommended and told us where to go 1st thing since the registration fills up so quickly.....it was a major success! We'll likely plan another trip in a few years and we will definitely use Alison again.
