  What our clients say about us...


Dear Ms. Hafto, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Traci Johnsen for her service to us, which was above and beyond the call of duty. In February, we contacted Magical Travel to book our July trip to Walt Disney World. Traci quickly booked our trip, handled our park tickets, and our meal plan. In addition, she booked my daughter a breakfast with the princesses, which was her most favorite highlight of the trip.She didn't stop there, though, when her job was finished. She sent several emails to check if we had questions or to confirm that we had all the information we needed for our trip. When I sent her an email, I usually got a response within a few minutes, sometimes even after regular business hours. You don't see that type of commitment from most people, and I was impressed. Traci is professional, courteous, and an "all around" nice person. We will use her services for any trips we may plan to WDW in the future, and I will recommend Traci Johnsen and Magical Travel to all my family and friends. Please feel free to contact me if you have questions or comments. I will end by stating that Traci is an asset to your company, and I hope you will post my comments on the Testimonial Page of your website.

 Dear Siobhan, Don't be thanking us, we should be thanking you.  All the help and advice you gave us was invaluable.  We are so thankful that we handed our reservation over to you.  You were awesome every step of the way and will most certainly go to you again.  We are thinking of going again next year, but we shall see. Disney really knows how to do it.  The trip was amazing, we had so much fun. We really couldn't have done it as well as we did without your help.  Thank you so much, we really can't say that enough.  You answered all of our questions and gave us really great advice.  We will definitely recommend you if anybody is thinking of a Disney vacation!

 Just wanted to let you know what a great experience we had working with Traci Johnsen.  From the inital contact to welcoming us home after the trip, she was very efficient, professional, knowledgeable, patient (while I was trying to make up my mind about stuff), and just overall FANTASTIC!   I will recommend Traci and Magical Travel to everyone I know.

Hi Michele! We're back from what was undoubtedly the best family vacation we've ever taken!  What an amazing trip!  The weather was great in comparison to what we have here in southcentral PA!  It was beautiful our first day, but started raining that evening when we left the Crystal Palace after dinner and progressively got worse and was pouring by the time we left the Magic Kingdom by about 9:30-10:00...but we didn't care!  We tromped around with our ponchos and enjoyed the 65+ degree temp and just soaked up being at DISNEY!  Sunday was the 'cold' day with temps in the upper 50's, but it was sunny and beautiful anyway - and we received some 'magic' from the dream squad that day, so it was amazing!!!  Our youngest daughter, Kelsey (who turned 6 during our trip), was named an official Disney "pincess" at Animal Kingdom and was presented with a crown with a princess pin on it, a Disney "Pincess" sash, and we got a personalized tour of a big chunk of AK by the two dream squad girls who then proceeded to take us in the "back entrance" to the front of the 90 minute wait line at the Kilimanjaro Safaris!  The driver continued to point things out and make comments to "Princess Kelsey" on the safari!  She smiled ear to ear the rest of the day!  And not to be left out, our 13 year old daughter was given an "UNbirthday" button (since her sister had a birthday button) and also got toy binoculars to be the assistant safari guide!  Monday - Friday it was sunny and in the upper 60's to mid 70's and just beautiful!  Our last day, Saturday, was overcast all morning and around 12:30 - 1:00 it was 'misty' - one of those 'is it enough to break out the poncho or not?' type rains.  We stayed at Hollywood Studios that day until about 4, then headed back to the resort to catch our bus to the airport.  Oh - we were also hit by a dream squad member in Epcot on Friday while I was admiring the building LeCellier is in at Canada and yelling at Joe while taking a picture that I didn't want to go home...I wanted to move there!  The dream squad lady said, "You can move here!" She chatted with us for probably 5 minutes and then told us she was with the Dream Squad and wanted to buy us all ice cream!  NICE!  And it's so funny - both times we were approached by the dream squad, we had no idea they were with the dream squad...we just thought they were friendly cast members wanting to chat!!!  One other thing - we went to the Pirates and Princess party on Monday night and had a ball!  I wasn't sure if I wanted to do it because we've done the Not So Scary Halloween Party in the past and weren't thrilled by it.  I'm SO glad we did the P&P party, though!  It was the highlight of our 13 year old daughter's trip...she got to meet and have her picture taken with Capt. Jack Sparrow!  ;-)  The rest of us were thrilled to jump right onto rides that were long waits during the day...and the parade/fireworks show for the party were awesome!   We're all terribly sad to be home and can't wait to go back!  It definitely IS the most magical place on earth!  :-)
By the way - I think my boss  contacted you about his family's trip in June.  I told him how great you and Magical Travel are...and I'll continue to tell anyone else who tells me they're thinking of going to Disney!  You were wonderful to work with...thanks again for all of your help in planning our trip...and answering all of my questions! Hope to work with you on another trip soon!!!

Thanks Denise - we can hardly wait to go. It was a pleasure working with you and the staff at Magical Travel yet again.

  Michele, I was going to call you tomorrow.  We got back Sat. night and Sunday was regroup and get ready for school today.  I am sorry I have not gotten with you yet to let you know we had a FABULOUS time!!!!  It was so great!!  The rooms were great!!  They were the perfect location.  My Mom was very happy about them.  They were connecting and very close to the food court and bus.  We loved the food court at Pop Century.  I was afraid the rooms might seem really small but they did not.  Our Breakfast at the Grand Floridian was great.  There was no one there at that time.  We had the characters and almost the room to ourselves.  We took the boat from the Magic Kingdom over there and that was a fun ride.  If you get a chance to go this time of year, it was the best weather. There was a cool breeze and there was not a big crowd at all.  We just loved it. Thanks so much for all your hard work and planning.  It really helped a lot.

Susan H. .
   Thank you so very much. You have all been very helpful. I have recommended your travel agency for some friends. We are going to have a wonderful trip.
Jeanmary

    Denise, Thank you for making our travel arrangements for us as well as all the restaurant reservations. I'm getting excited. I remember how absolutely perfect our trip to Vegas and the Grand Canyon was after you made the best plans for us. So I know this trip will be just as great if not better since you are such a Disney aficionado. Now if we can only get all the girls to agree to a couple’s trip, the world would be perfect. Thanks again

Denise,
    I just wanted to thank you for all your help in planning our trip. We had a wonderful time! You went out of your way when changing our type of package to get us a better deal (the Fantasy Package) and the deal with our daughter going and then not going. As far as the reservations that you made for us goes, our seats at the Polynesian Luau couldn't have been better. Also, I will have to tell you that your promotion for the Disney Dollars is what attracted me to your agency. Other agencies offer other things, but you were the only one that I found that offered Disney Dollars. I think it is great. I budgeted the dollars for the "extras", like ice cream, sodas and other odds and ends that come up. I have already, and I will keep on, recommending you to others. I know you work long and hard hours to do this for us all, and we really do appreciate it. Thank you again,
Julie S.

    Hi Denise, just wanted to let you know everything went smooth and enjoyed our vacation. Will be using you again in the future. Thanks again.
Jon B. M.

    Thank you. I have told everyone what a pleasure you have been to work with and that I would highly recommend Magical Travel and most of all you personally. Again, thank you for all your help.
Chris and Lisa

Denise,
    I wanted to email you on behalf of both the xxxxx family and ours for your help in arranging a WONDERFUL!!! trip to Walt Disney World®. Everything was great (besides the occasional thunderstorm in the evening...but I guess that is typical weather for central Florida). Tiffany Town cars was also great. Our driver was awesome and our van even had movies for the kids during the drive to and from the resort. We covered a lot of ground in the 5 days we were there and everyone wished we could have stayed longer! All in all, it was a great trip THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP. I recommended your service to others and we will definitely be doing business with you in the future... maybe a cruise next time. Sincerely,
Jeff

Dear Denise-
Just a quick note to let you know that Dan and I had a fabulous trip to Disneyland!  We enjoyed every minute of it and we loved our hotel.
Universal Studios was a fun day too.Thank you so much for all the work you did for us and for helping to make this a special trip.  We really appreciated your patience with all of our silly questions!! I hope to work with you again.

Sincerely, Deborah V.

Dear Kim,
The trip was great it was as magical for me as it was for the kids! 
I want to thank you for all your help and for all the arrangements you made with your experienced planning of our itinerary it really made the trip go smooth, my legs were tired!!! we did almost everything the only thing we were not able to do was the countries at epcot!  The breakfast at the castle was excellent and Chef Mickey was great.  We added two more dinner spots after we got down there; Tony’s in the magic kingdom and Prime Time Cafe at MGM.  We went to see beauty and the beast later in the week and play house Disney.  The kids were not crazy about MGM!
I want to plan another trip for Dec. 2005, how are the packages then and can I plan this far ahead?  I was thinking that early Dec. would be better then closer to Christmas it probably would even more crowded, but even if we do not do Christmas I want to go in 2005!  Let me know what your thoughts are!  October was a great time to go weather was excellent, but we had to come back to the cold weather.
Thank you and let me know about the other stuff!

Audrey K..

Good Morning!  I just wanted to say thank you for all your help.  Everything went well and we had a great time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Thank you again.

Lori S.

Our trip was fantastic! Thank you very much. Our room at Port Orleans French Quarter was very centrally located. The meal plan was great. And, of course Disney World is beyond words. Thank you so much for helping us with such a wonderful trip.

Nancy G.

Just a short note to let you know that our vacation was wonderful and the package that you recommended was excellent.  We had a few hiccups with our return service, but overall everything went smooth. Thank you for your professionalism and dedication. 

Catherine S.

I have a friend who will be calling or emailing you.  She has a party of 6 (2 ad 4 kids) so she is shopping for on site & off site.  Do you book off-site?  I wasn't sure.  Thank you for all of your help--you have been wonderful.

Karen B.

Thank you very much for all the help.  I did get the boarding passes printed out, I just called Delta and they gave me the correct confirmation number.  And thank you ALL very much for being helpful, this is our first vacation ever so we had no idea what we were doing. You guys did an awesome job helping out!!!

Aimee T. and Family

Hello Denise:
I just want to thank you for everything. We had the time of our lives.  The kids enjoyed themselves so much.  The Disney Cruise was amazing. They really go all out for the kids. My kids felt the way me and my husband feel when we go on our adult cruise. Thank you for your suggestions, they were all great.  We want to plan our 7-day Disney cruise for March 2006.  We just don't know which one. We have plenty of time to plan, so when you have time just mail me that info.  You made our first Disney Vacation awesome.  Thank you! Thank you!

Corina C. and family.

We had a blast!  Thank you so much for all you did for us!  It was such a nice surprise to have a gift waiting in our room!!  You made the trip so smooth!  I'll send pictures when I get them downloaded

Michele, The vacation was of course fun and also strenuous. All that walking around in the humid heat. Ugh! I had loads of fun though despite. One of the days I spent at Universal, where my friend Scott works. I'm in the process of typing out blogs about my Disney vacation for my MySpace page. The ride I rode the most was Test Track, because it's such an odd ride. My favorite show was Philharmagic; that is so awesome. At Universal the Spider-Man ride rocks. I love that ride; simply amazing. At the Restaurant Akershus in EPCOT, the desert was delicious, but it was so much I didn't have room for all of it.  Anyway, I won't write a whole travel diary here. Before going on the vacation, I recommended you/Magical Travel to the person I work with, Misty, because she's been thinking of taking a vacation with her son near the start of next year, and WDW is one of the 2 places she's considering. Anyway, I recommended you immensely to her. Thanks for asking about my vacation. Take care, and I might keep in touch with you in general off and on through the months, just for the heck of it. And of course, whenever I can take another vacation I'll contact you right away,

Hi Angela,
Just wanted to send you a few pictures and say thank you for helping us with our trip.  We had a great time, your planning was excellent.  The kids had a blast, mom and dad did too!  The character dinners were such a nice way to meet them and so much yummy food!  We had great timing on our transportation to the parks and saw as much as we could.  Elizabeth loved the boutique, that was so fun.  Ethan loved Splash Mountain, parades, and fireworks!  Thanks again, it couldn't have been a better trip!

The Fish Family.

Angela, Thanks for your note.  We are back and unpacked, but still sorting through the 600+ photos that we took while there.  It was a wonderful time at Disney and the weather was (mostly) warm and dry.  McKenna loved seeing all the princesses and Mickey, Minnie, and pretty much everyone else in costume, and she rode as many rides as the rest of us did.  Thanks also for the gift basket with the Minnie doll, photo album, and everything else in it -- it was a nice surprise and McKenna ended up sleeping with Minnie every night! We loved the Wilderness Lodge -- great ambiance, convenient travel to Magic Kingdom by boat and bus, and the pools and geyser were great to see.   Our room had a view of the pool and the lake, and the two queen beds worked out fine.  The only hitch that we encountered was that three days before we arrived, I had called Wilderness Lodge directly to ask about getting a room with one queen and one bunk bed.  The hotel receptionist agreed on the phone but three days later when we checked in we were told they were unavailable ( a bit disappointing after we'd promised McKenna that she was FINALLY going to get to sleep in a bunk bed).  The flag family opportunity was also unavailable, so I guess both go very quickly. We went to all the major parks -- Hollywood Studios (first day), Epcot (second day), Magic Kingdom (dinner second day, all third day), Downtown and Epcot (fourth day) and Animal Kingdom (fifth day), then back to Magic Kingdom for our last couple of hours before heading to the airport.  The parks that had the Extra Magic Hours didn't match up with the parks where our meal reservations were, but we talked to a Magic Kingdom employee and he thought that the extra hours actually attracted more people than was worth it.  So it all worked out fine... McKenna loved Magic Kingdom the best (surprise, surprise) and especially the Dumbo ride, Runaway Railroad, and the Goofy Barnstormer -- probably because she got to ride on it with Goofy as soon as the park opened (they picked her to open up Toontown, since she was dressed in her Ariel costume complete with crown...  she also was the first in line for Goofy's, Donald's and Pluto's signatures...  definitely princess treatment).   Also, the Cinderella dinner in the castle was also special, but we'd probably do it as a lunch next time.  McKenna was pretty worn out by dinner, and we didn't realize that there aren't any characters to do autographs during dinner time (just a brief song from the Fairy Godmother and the two mice).  We loved the Japanese dinner and were equally impressed with the buffet at Tusker House....  very glad we did the meal plan and had the reservations lined up.Anyway, guess that's enough as a summary.  Here's two of our hundreds of pictures, and we wanted to thank you for setting this up for us.  It was a magical vacation, even if we wound up walking many, many miles each day....  our favorite part was seeing how different each of the parks were and watching the parades and fireworks together as a family!   Thanks again.

Hi Denise, I just wanted to tell you we had a wonderful time in Disney! The hotel was beautiful and the meal plan was amazing! The kids had a ball! Thank you again for everything you did for us, we really appreciate it.

     Janine K. 

Michele,  We just got back from a perfect vacation. Thanks so much for all the assistants you gave Susan.  The room was located just right to be able to walk to bus and food court without fainting because of the distance.  God just opened up so many blessings for us.....the weather was absolutely beautiful everyday....the girls received some special privileges from the Dream Team....our breakfast at the Grand Floridian was soooo special.  We were seated at the best table in the house with plenty of room for the Disney characters to move among the girls.  I hope you have a warm fuzzy feeling just knowing how you enabled us to take advantage of so many things.

  Charleen S..

Thank you!!!  :) I have told everyone I know about Magical Travel and how helpful and easy it has been to plan this vacation!

    Kelley P.   

Hello Denise,   Just wanted to say " THANK YOU "   for all your help in planning our Disney Vacation.   Our Hotel room was pleasant..everything was excellent......right down to the Free Disney Dinning Plan.  The kids could not believe that they could order any thing off the menu. We had rain only one day down there...but it passed within the hour. Thanks again. 
 

        Kathy, MaryAnn, Zac, and Shelby .

Regardless of the rates we will be planning the vacation with you the week I spoke of..you did such a wonderful job last trip I cant see using anyone else!! look forward to hearing from ya!

 

    Lisa D.

    Denise, Thank you! You are the best!!!  You made my day. I was very concerned that we were not going to be able to get any of these dinners due to the 180 day reservation. I am so glad we booked with Magical Travel. You are making planning very easy and I appreciate your recommendations. Thank you,

Jason S.

   I wanted to (belatedly) thank you for the awesome vacation package you put together for us. We had so much fun and everything went smoothly. We really liked and appreciated the dining package, which was out of this world. We took three days to drive down and stopped at Williamsburg, Savannah and Daytona Beach.  The whole family agrees that this was by far the best vacation we have been on. I have already recommended your service to my extended family and when we want to go to back to Disney we will certainly use your service again.
Thank you so much for all you have done.

Elke & family

    We just returned last week from our Disney trip. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to return. Thank you so much for all your help. We are looking at returning next year and would like some information on packages as they become available. We are considering a whole range of options.
John  

    Thank you for all your arrangements on my behalf with Walt Disney World® this August. The holiday went very smoothly and we had a brilliant time, so much so that we are considering returning next August, but this time may wish to try the Disney cruise line.
Julie M.

    This is Mike M., we purchased our Disney trip through you a couple of weeks ago. We just got back from Disneyland last night. I wanted to email you and tell you that we had the best time ever. This was our first trip to Disneyland and it definitely won't be our last. Everything you said we would get....we got. I couldn't be more pleased with the package you set us up with. When we go back to Disneyland we will make sure to go through you and if I ever hear of someone wanting to go to Disneyland I will recommend your company. Thank you again for a great vacation.
Mike M.

    Well, I just want to thank you again for all of your hard work to help us have a great trip. I hope to head back there and I will definitely call you when that happens! It was a pleasure.
Diane S.

    I just wanted to say thanks again for all of your help! We had a great time at Disney World. This was my fifth time to visit Disney World, but the first time to stay at a Disney Resort. The whole family agreed that it is really the way to go. It was so much easier to park hop and go home for a rest in the middle of the day when we wanted to. We loved being able to send our purchases to the Resort and pick them up the next day when we didn't have to wait in a long line. Thanks for the good price you got for us.

    We all agreed that the Fast Pass is GREAT! Even though it was the busiest week of the year, we seldom had to wait long because of Fast Pass and planning. Hope you get to visit Disney soon.

Joy W.

    Hi Denise..Got the email you sent. Thanks for your help today. I really appreciate it. I have told EVERYONE about how great you all are. I am sooo glad we booked thru you.
Donna C.

    As always thank you for all of your help. I can't tell you enough how wonderful you and your company have been in helping plan my family's vacation. We will say hi to Mickey for you!
Best regards,
Steve D.

    Thanks for all your help with our trip. We had a great time. I hope to use your services again. I can't tell you enough how much this trip meant to us.
You have a great day.
Bill  

Hi Kim
We really appreciate all you have done for us in the past and on this trip.  We would not have had the great times that we have had with out all of your help at Magical Travel.

Thanks again for all of your help, Julie S.

Dear Denise,
We loved the resort.  The room location was a 5 minute walk from downtown Disney and the bus stop was just outside.  The villas were superb and accommodated a family of 4 very comfortably.  Generally the whole resort was fabulous.  We decided that we would go back there next time.  The dining plan was also great as we ate breakfast in our rooms (more personal too and not pressed for time to get out).  We actually had 8 dinners left over as we did have one night out with family who live in Orlando.  The meals were more than enough and we ate to our hearts content.  We do hope to make our reservations with you when we plan our next Disney vacation.  Just one question, do you make bookings just for Disney or other destinations too? Thanks again.

Catherine S.

Thank you for your quick response!  Keep me in mind if any really good deals come along for next year.  I will let you know how our trip was when I get back.  Again, thank you for all your help...I will tell everyone planning a trip about magical travel.
