Your magical travel agent, at your service.
Being born and raised in South Carolina and growing up within driving distance of Walt Disney World made for a childhood full of memorable Disney trips. My first-ever trip to Disney World was in 1972, just the second year the park had been open. I was just six or seven, but I knew then I had found my first love: Disney.
Over the years, my two daughters and I have made our way around the world, literally, in terms of Disney. We've made it to Disneyland California, trekked on several Disney cruises, got some R&R at Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa in Ko'Olino, Hawaii, and been konichi-wowed by Tokyo Disney Resort in Tokyo, Japan. Everyone in our circle has always said, "You've never truly been to Disney unless you took a Hartley Disney trip." That's why I can plan the best trips, because I've done it all already!
I love the history of Walt Disney and the theme parks. I have a growing collection of Disney books, from biographies of Walt to histories of the different parks.
But what I love most about Disney is the joy and magic that it brings no matter how old or young you may be. I still tear up walking under the train station at Disney World and coming out onto the “stage” for the first time each visit. Standing in line waiting to see a parade still gives me butterflies and experiencing the “Kiss Goodnight” at the end of the day is so bittersweet.
Obviously, Disney is my specialty. But, I've seen much more of the world than just the Disney Parks, and I'm not talking about EPCOT. I've planned trips for my family from California to Tokyo to Hawaii to London to all up and down the East Coast. If you have a destination in mind, I can plan you the trip of a lifetime.
