Kara, Discovering the Magic Travel Agent

Kara, Discovering the Magic Travel Agent Hi! I'm Kara, a Planner with Discovering the Magic Travel, with a specialty in Disney/Universal!! Hi!!! Belle is my favorite Disney princess.

I'm Kara, a Travel Planner with Discovering the Magic Travel, who can get you almost anywhere for your next leisure vacation, but who also specializes in all things Disney and Universal! And the best part of it is, no matter where you go, my services ARE COMPLETELY COMPLIMENTARY! So if you want Adventure in the Great Wide Somewhere on a Next Level, Magical Vacation where you can leave saying Zip-A

-Dee-Doo-Dah or Mischief Managed, then I'm your girl! I can help you book with Disney, Universal, Cruise Lines, Full Vacation Packages, All-Inclusives, Tours, Car Rentals, Stroller and Wheelchair Rentals, Airport Transfers, Europe and almost any type of Leisure Travel! So let me introduce myself quickly, and then let's get started, because Magic and Adventure are out there, and they're waiting for you! I live in Michigan with my husband, AJ, and our two awesome little dudes, Maverick and Ronin, with our angel baby, "Bean," ever present.
2020 led me to become a budget conscious, full time Stay at Home Mom! As you can tell, I'm a bit of a geek, especially when it comes to Disney, the MCU and Harry Potter. I went to school for Theatre and Film, and enjoy acting for the big screen, little screen and on stage. I find inspiration in all of the arts, especially literature, performance arts and film! The Sanderson Sisters are life lol. Scarlet Witch, Spiderman and Captain America are my favorite Marvel superheroes, and I want to attend the Yule Ball in real life! I have been fortunate enough to visit so many awesome places, like:
Multiple countries in Europe (Croatia is probably my favorite), the Caribbean, Universal Orlando, Disney World, Disneyland, Disneyland Paris and Castaway Cay while on a Disney Cruise, with hopes to take a trip to all three Disney parks in Asia soon! I have cruised with Disney, Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian. I was also fortunate enough to do The Warner Brothers Making of Harry Potter Studio Tour London. For now though, I am just enjoying as much time as I can with my family and friends! So Let's Get Down to Business! If you don't want to deal with all the hassle of researching and booking a trip, then let me do it for you, as we Assemble the Avengers, board the Hogwarts Express and head to wherever the Second Star to the Right and Straight on till Morning takes us worldwide!! In other words, let's go To Infinity and Beyond!

🚨Disney Springs Transportation Policy Change🚨

There’s a new policy coming to Walt Disney World beginning June 28, 2026, and honestly… I think it’s been a long time coming! 👏

Starting June 28th, if you want to use the Disney buses or watercraft transports from Disney Springs to a Disney Resort, you’ll need to be a Disney Resort Guest with a valid resort reservation. It doesn’t have to be at the specific resort you’re visiting, but you do need to be staying on Disney property. 🏰

Are there any exceptions? Just one! If you have a Dining Reservation or Enchanting Extra booked at a particular resort, you can still access that resort using Disney transportation from Disney Springs. 🍽️✨

As someone who specializes in Disney trips, and as someone who exclusively stays on Disney property during my own Adventures, I see this as another great perk when it comes to staying on vs off property! 💜

Even so, I know this one is going to be controversial... some people will love it, and some people will absolutely hate it. 😂

So tell me what you think!

💜 = Love the new policy!
🦹🏻‍♀️ = Disney is making another policy I hate!

"Universal doesn't have a nighttime fireworks show in Epic though..."

BUT IT WILL SOON!!!

Starting July 7th, you can set your night aglow with a glittering new fireworks finale!

Experience the excitement of Universal Celestial Goodnight, a dazzling new nightly display of fireworks, dancing fountains and unforgettable music at Universal Epic Universe.

So whether you're in Islands of Adventure being amazed by the new Hogwarts Always projection show, or in Universal Studios enjoying CineSational: A Symphonic Spectacular or dazzling at the Celestial Goodnight at Epic Universe, your evening at Universal Orlando will surely be magical!

*Some nighttime shows may only be on select nights and they are always subject to change or cancellation.*

🧳TRAVEL TIME🧳

The "K" Family (along with 3 other groups) is on their way to meet the "B" Family in Punta Cana, at the Adults Only, All Inclusive - Excellence El Carmen Resort!

It's really going to be a family celebration like no other!

With a Swim Up Suite, food and drinks included, numerous pools, beachfront access and so much more, it really is an adults only paradise!!

One of the nicest perks, is if you stay for longer than three nights, free airport transfers are included in your stay!

We did have a little bit of a hiccup with the transfer company leading up to their stay, but the "K" Family put their full trust in me to handle it, and we got everything sorted well before their arrival!

Making sure everything is set and ready to go, is one of my top priorities for all of my Magical Families! I will always take care of your family's adventure as if I was creating the same adventure for my own!

I want to thank the "K" Family so much for allowing my to be their Travel Planner. It means so much more than I can. 🌴

🧳TRAVEL TIME🧳

The "B" Family is on their way to the Adults Only All Inclusive - Excellence El Carmen Resort, in Punta Cana, to celebrate finishing Nursing School!!

The whole family made adjustments and sacrifices so they could get through an accelerated course of study, while also taking care of their babies, their house and their family. In short, they REALLY deserve this Adventure!

Having been friends with Mrs. B for basically my whole life, even before she was Mrs. B lol, I was beyond honored when they asked me to help them plan this trip!

With the resort being Adults Only and with their selection of a Swim Up Suite, it truly will be relaxation and reprieve that is unmatched!

I want to thank the "B" Family so much for always supporting me as friends, and for choosing me to be their Travel Planner for this celebration. I can't wait to hear all about it! 🌴

🧳TRAVEL TIME🧳

The "W" Family is off to Disney World!!

Having a family of 6 meant they needed a specific room set up. Knowing that Disney World does have connecting rooms, but that they have to be booked in a very specific way, using me as their agent allowed that to be set up correctly for a stay at Coronado Springs!

Now they'll be able to enjoy the space of two rooms and all of the amazing amenities at this top tier Moderate Resort!

My family loves Coronado Springs! It has such a unique vibe, both during the day and at night, and can feel more Deluxe than Moderate sometimes!

Going to Disney now, means they get to enjoy some amazing bundled promos from their time of booking, along with Cool Kids Summer perks like:

- Free Water Park Entry on their check in day
- All the amazing Cools Kids Summer Experiences and Ride Upgrades
- Free Dining Plans for kids ages 3-9 in 2026
- 6 Days worth of Park Tickets, with 2 of them free
- 2 nights free of their stay since they are staying for at least 6 nights

What better way to kick off the Summer at the most Magical Place on Earth!?

I want to thank the "W" Family so much for placing their Faith, Trust and Pixie Dust in me to be their Travel Planner!! I can't wait to hear all about their adventure. ✨💚

What does Disney World do in situations like today with the earthquake off the coast of Cuba?

With reports coming in that the quake was felt throughout Florida, it's always nice to know that Disney has many advanced security and safety protocols in place for all different types of scenarios.

In the case of something like this, they may temporarily halt rides. After which, they would do some empty car tests runs to ensure that everything is functioning properly and securely, to ensure the safety of all.

Currently there are NO reports of operational issues at the parks.
