Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How much does it cost to use a travel advisor?

A: Planning fees vary depending on the type and complexity of your trip. Book a complimentary 30-minute consultation call and I'll walk you through exactly what's included and what to expect, with no surprises. My goal is to make your vacation worth every penny of the planning.

Q2: What Disney destinations does Adventure Mouse Travel plan vacations to?

A: I plan trips to Walt Disney World (Orlando, FL), Disneyland (Anaheim, CA), Disneyland Paris, and Adventures by Disney escorted tours worldwide. I also book Disney Cruise Line sailings and Universal Orlando Resort / Universal Hollywood vacations.

Q3: Can you help with Lightning Lane reservations at Disney?

A: Yes! I provide complete Lightning Lane strategy for Walt Disney World and Disneyland, including when to book, which rides to prioritize for MultiPass or Premier Pass, and how to structure your park days to minimize wait times and maximize fun.

Q4: What cruise lines does Adventure Mouse Travel book?

A: I work with all major cruise lines, including Disney Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, Holland America, Princess, Viking River Cruises, and more. I specialize in adults-only sailings, couples' escapes, river cruises through Europe, and themed sailings.

Q5: What European tours does Adventure Mouse Travel offer?

A: I plan custom European itineraries and book guided group tours through Italy, France, Spain, Greece, Ireland, Portugal, and more. I also book European river cruises (Viking, AmaWaterways, Avalon) and Adventures by Disney European escorted tours.

Q6: Is using a travel advisor better than booking a vacation online?

A: For most people, yes, especially for complex vacations like Disney World or a cruise. A travel advisor handles logistics you might not think of (like dining reservations at Disney that open 60 days out, or which shore excursions book up fast on cruises), saves you hours of research, and is your advocate if something goes wrong. 

Q7: What happens on a complimentary travel planning call?

A: In a complimentary 30-minute consultation, we'll talk about your travel dreams, ideal travel dates, group size, must-haves, and budget. From there, I build a personalized itinerary and handle all the bookings: resort or ship, tickets, dining, transfers, and more.

Q8: Does Adventure Mouse Travel plan trips for solo travelers?

A: Absolutely. I specialize in solo travel, including solo cruises and adults-only resort vacations. Solo travel can come with single supplement fees, and I know which cruise lines and resorts are solo-friendly and how to find the best value for single travelers.

Q9: What is the best Disney park for adults?

A: EPCOT is widely considered the best Disney park for adults, thanks to its international food and drink options, World Showcase, and immersive themed lands. Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios also have plenty to offer adult visitors. I can help you decide which parks fit your trip best.

Q10: How far in advance should I book a Disney vacation?

A: Most Disney World vacations should be booked 6-12 months in advance, especially for peak periods like spring break, summer, or the holidays. Disney dining reservations open 60 days before your trip, and popular restaurants book up within hours. Working with a travel advisor ensures you hit all those booking windows without missing anything.
