Hi there, Caitlin!
Yeehaw! A visit to The Happiest Place on Earth sounds like a
rootin', tootin' time! Let’s see if we can find a few resources that can help you make your dream trip a reality.
To me, the most straightforward way to find travel planning support is to contact the Walt Disney Travel Company. You can either call the
Vacation Packages phone line or book hotel and ticket
Vacation Packages online. That even includes booking
Good Neighbor Hotel Vacation Packages. If you call the Walt Disney Travel Company, you may even be able to book experiences and transportation arrangements for select
Southern California attractions. There is no added cost to booking your travel through the Walt Disney Travel Company. And there are even a few perks that come with vacation packages, including discount coupons and some collectible keepsakes.
If you would prefer to use the services of an independent travel agent, I recommend seeking out an “authorized Disney vacation planner.” Travel agents who bear the “Earmarked” designation will be especially proficient in booking Disney Parks vacations. Travel agents can set their fees. Most authorized Disney travel planners I have come across provide their services for no additional charge. Their commissions usually come from Disney instead of their clients. There are many different ways to interact with such travel agents. Some offer all of their services through an online portal. Others may provide personalized support over the phone. You can find these services with an Internet search. Or you may even have access to limited services through your warehouse club membership or at-work perks provider.
Of course, we are always happy to help answer questions here at planDisney too. We may not be travel agents, but as fellow Guests with many years of experience visiting Disney Parks destinations, we are more than happy to share our collective knowledge to help you make the most of your Disneyland Resort vacation. If you are looking for recommendations, tips, and more, you have come to the right place, Caitlin!
Have a magical time!
