In 2022, after 24 years in the classroom, Cheryl stopped teaching.  At that time, she had been devoted to being both a travel agent and an educator; however, she decided it was time to focus on one career instead of two. With a booming business, it made sense to open her own agency with her husband.  

She has helped hundreds of clients create memorable moments around the world! Her specialties include all of the Disney Destinations around the world, Universal Vacations, all-inclusive resorts, several cruise lines, and a variety of locations around the world.  Cheryl is looking forward to working with you and is grateful for this opportunity to help you make your own magical memories alone on a solo trip, together with family on unbelievable getaways, or with friends on trips of a lifetime. When you are ready, she would love to show you the world!

Favorite Vacation: South Africa

When Cheryl and David first met, one of the things that caught her eye was that he was bitten by the travel bug.  Who knew less than 10 years later they would not only be off on adventures together around the world but helping others enjoy the same destinations, too! 

David is our technology guru, so he handles just about any of the agency IT questions.  He is also the one handling finances and many behind-the-scenes tasks on a day to day basis.

Displayed on a wall in their home, you will find a world travel map that he purchased one year.  For every vacation they embark on together, when a new destination is experienced, they mark the location with a pin.  Annually, new cities and countries are added, and their adventures are proudly displayed and fondly remembered daily.

Favorite Vacation: Italy

Here in the Daniel household, our onsite team also partakes in daily activities.  If there is a delivery whether it's the mailperson, UPS, FedEx, or Amazon, Gus sounds the alert to make sure we don't miss a single piece of important information sent our way.  Sometimes, he even lets us know if there's a strange looking cat that looks suspicious. When he isn't on guard duty, Gus is happy to lounge around and just snooze until needed for security.

BB7+1 (BB-8 was taken) is definitely not the droid you're looking for because she's not a droid at all.  While BB tends to not be as vocal as her teammate, she does often assist in pressing buttons.  It's usually the "outside" button, but it's a button nonetheless.  She may soon progress to laptop keys, and then, maybe she can send out our e-newsletters.  

Stick around because you'll definitely enjoy getting to visit with these two pups and all of their shenanigans.

Favorite Vacation: Car

I've always loved travel. As a kid, I'd spend hours with National Geographic magazines, travel books, and watching travel shows on our limited TV stations in Arkansas. In grad school, I became a Fulbright Scholar and studied at the American University in Cairo, which gave me the confidence to travel independently.

For over 25 years, I led student educational trips across Europe while being a high school history teacher, allowing me summers off to travel with my own kids. We explored Europe, Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, Mexico, and even celebrated New Year's in Iceland. Petting a tiger in Thailand was one of my more daring experiences.

I've learned to cater to both "tourists" who prefer structure and "travelers" who enjoy flexibility, creating plans that accommodate both. My extensive travel experience, both abroad and domestically, is a great asset for anyone looking to explore new destinations.

I have two adult children: my son, an Air Force Captain, and my daughter, recently engaged in Hallstatt, Austria. They both inherited my wanderlust.

What can I offer? Personalized travel experiences tailored to clients' dreams, budgets, and needs. I listen to their desires and present them with the best options, ensuring the hardest part of their journey is deciding what to pack.

As a travel enthusiast with a passion for making vacations unforgettable, I look forward to helping others curate the adventures of their dreams. My journey into hospitality began after my husband and I graduated from college, and we took jobs at Walt Disney World Resorts. I never expected to work in this field, but I quickly fell in love with making guests’ vacations magical working as a Concierge at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Later, we moved to Los Angeles, and I worked as a Front Desk Manager at the Beverly Hills Hotel. There I gained invaluable experience in one of the country’s most renowned resorts.

Growing up in an Air Force family, I was always on the move, experiencing new places every few years. This early exposure to travel sparked a lifelong love of adventure, particularly road trips. I’ve visited nearly all 50 states and have plans to complete my list with a road trip through New England. My family and I also enjoy visiting National Parks, and my daughter and I have set a goal to visit all of them someday.

After living in various cities, including Orlando, LA, the SF Bay Area, and Miami, my husband and I settled in Atlanta to raise our family. Our children were introduced to travel at a young age and became expert road-trippers before they were even in preschool. They’ve developed a love for history, which has only deepened our family’s connection to travel. Our family began visiting Walt Disney World annually, and in 2013, we took our first Disney Cruise, which sparked a passion for cruising that continues today. Since then, we've sailed on five ships in the DCL fleet with itineraries to Caribbean, Bahamas, Alaska, Pacific Coast and Europe (our favorite) locations.

After years of helping friends plan vacations and organizing trips for my Girl Scouts, I decided to turn my love of travel into a career. In 2020, life threw me a curveball with a breast cancer diagnosis, but after months of treatment, I was ready to travel again. Now, with my health restored and my children grown, I’m excited to help others create memorable travel experiences. Whether you’re exploring new cultures, enjoying the outdoors, or simply making lifelong memories, I believe travel offers transformative opportunities for people of all ages.

I’m a proud mama of two sweet little girls, Kennedy and Kinsley, and a wife to my wonderful husband, Nik. We also have two adorable fur babies, Rylee and Bella, who love all the attention. We recently made the move from sunny South Florida to Greenville, SC, but I’ll always have a special place in my heart for my hometown. Nik and I both attended the University of Central Florida (Go Knights!) and spent plenty of time exploring the theme parks in Orlando, with Disney being our favorite.

My love for travel extends beyond theme parks; I also grew up near the ports, which sparked a passion for cruising. One of our most exciting trips was our honeymoon to Costa Rica, where we stayed at an all-inclusive resort and had the time of our lives. Whether it’s a road trip to another state or a National Park for hiking and sightseeing, we love exploring new places. With two little ones and our pups in tow, we’ve definitely mastered the art of family road trips, and I’m always happy to share tips with fellow travelers! 

While I’ve always loved tourism and hospitality, I initially pursued a career in psychology, earning my Bachelor’s degree and working as a behavioral therapist and later as a service coordinator. Always in the back of my mind, I recalled my time in high school where I was a part of a tourism and hospitality program offered that I enjoyed so much, and I wondered if maybe that was my true calling. I absolutely loved the industry, but I wasn't sure if this field would suit me with wanting to start a family of my own. After having my first daughter, I realized my true passion for travel, and I’m excited that I have jumped at the opportunity to pursue my dream of becoming a travel professional. I’ve learned so much over the years and can’t wait to share my knowledge with clients to help make their vacations unique and stress-free.

With my attention to detail and love for planning, I treat every vacation as if it were my own. I want to ensure that my clients are fully prepared and can relax while I take care of the planning. Whether it’s navigating Disney with young children, cruising with the family, or exploring theme parks, I have plenty of tips and personal experience to make your trip unforgettable. I’m currently working through the Disney College of Knowledge and look forward to expanding my expertise to include Universal, SeaWorld, and additional cruise lines.

My passion for travel began when my husband introduced me to Disney World during our first trip with our preschool-aged boys. I immediately fell in love with the magic of Disney, and we’ve returned many times since, exploring more destinations as a family. As a wife of 27 years and a mom to twin boys, now 20, our adventures together include memorable vacations like a 15-day road trip that took us to Mount Rushmore, the Grand Canyon, Grand Teton National Park, Disneyland, and more. I’m also a private teacher, a former public school educator, and a dog mom to Elli, our cocker spaniel. 

Over the years, we’ve enjoyed many adventures, from ski trips and beach getaways (including a memorable trip to Hawaii) to international destinations like London, Milan, and Switzerland. We’ve also cruised with Carnival and look forward to exploring other cruise lines in the future. No matter the destination, we’ve made countless memories together as a family, embracing new experiences and adventures along the way.

Our travels have at times included challenges such as traveling with children who have sensory delays and managing trips with older parents. We’ve navigated long flights, road trips, and traveling through all seasons. We’ve also enjoyed Disney during its seasonal events, including the Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and New Year’s Eve, as well as National cheer competitions at Disney’s Wide World of Sports. We’ve visited almost every Disney resort and explored Universal Studios and SeaWorld in both Florida and Texas.

Through all of our experiences, my love for travel and adventure has only grown. I understand the unique challenges of traveling with family, from special needs considerations to accommodating different ages and interests. I’m passionate about sharing these experiences with others and helping families plan their perfect trips, whether it’s a theme park adventure, a road trip, or an international getaway.
