I am dedicated to providing comprehensive travel for you and everyone that travels with you. I can help you plan your flights, tours, accommodations and unique experiences for your next getaway. I have traveled extensively to over 96 countries throughout the world – focusing on Africa, Europe, Asia, Peru and North America. I have completed certification programs with major cruise lines and am also a Globus Tours, Starwood and Amawaterways River Cruise Certified Specialist. My specialties and passions include, but are not limited to, African safaris and mission experiences, group travel and photography. I also love helping my customers explore exotic destinations by providing unique experiences such as gorilla trekking or cycling along the European canals.

I was born in South Africa, lived in the Netherlands, Puerto Rico and the United States. I took my first transatlantic cruise at age 6 to immigrate to America. You might say traveling is in my blood!

I love getting to know your travel desires, investigating the options and delivering dream vacations. You can trust me to provide insider information, customized travel and help you out if you’re ever in a bind. I look forward to helping you discover the vacation of your dreams.

I am a Certified Travel Specialist, CTS, and a Master Cruise Consultant, MCC.

Meet Andrea Bagley

Disney Vacation Specialist

Hi, I’m Andrea and there is a good chance I am as excited about your decision to plan a Disney trip as you are. I have a degree in Interior Design, but decided to stay home once I had children. I homeschool my two kids, practice yoga, enjoy cooking, and sometimes I run and climb mountains. My love of traveling has taken me all over the US, Costa Rica, Iceland, and of course to Disney! I first took my kids to Walt Disney World when they were young, and I fell in love with it. I now visit multiple times a year. I’ve done trips with the entire family, trips with just one child, and trips with just adults. Disney is ever changing, so in an effort to stay current I am a graduate of the College of Disney Knowledge, listen to Disney podcasts and follow Disney Instagram accounts and bloggers. I can use my extensive knowledge to help you plan your most magical trip. I will build a trip for you that considers all the things you value: cost, times to visit with the lowest crowds, dining reservations, how to avoid long lines for rides, and much much more. In the words of Walt Disney himself, “We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths”. I’m here to help you experience the very essence of those words and no doubt return home with priceless memories.
