As you’ve seen from our posts in the past, we like to have a lot of fun and try to show off our Disney knowledge through creative, sometimes humorous, Top 10 lists. When you combine various personalities and ages on our team, it makes for some fun discussions to create the lists. But we all agree that we love Disney and we love helping plan the vacation of a lifetime. Because of that, I thought I’d share a special Top 10 so you can see why a trip prepared by Believe Vacations Agents is a must.
Welcome to Believe Vacations Top 10 where today, we’ll look at the Top 10 Things We Do For Clients. In this list, we are going to list a few of our services. Some are going to be obvious; some you may have no idea that we can do it for you. Regardless, we hope after reading this list you think of Believe Vacations first. And although we are primarily synonymous with Disney Travel planning, would it surprise you that we also book for…
10) Universal Studios – Yep, the big competition to Disney in the Orlando Area! Harry Potter World, The Simpson’s, Roller Coasters, riding the movies, all the stuff that is being marketed to grown-ups and teenagers. Even though the company is different, our same quality of service and attention to detail remains. Ok, now we return you to our regularly scheduled vacation planning!

9) Aulani – If you have a desire to visit Hawaii, you may not know about the Disney owned and operated resort in Ko Olina. By staying in island themed rooms, suites or villas, you will enjoy those Hawaiian sunsets every night as you embrace native entertainment, costume and legends. Aulani offers resort amenities like spas and pools and, in true Disney fashion, has characters known as Auntie and Uncle who will involve you into island culture through wonderful stories. Aloha, Welcome to Aulani!
8) Adventures by Disney – Planning a trip to one of the most famous cities in the world like New York, Paris, Rome, London, Sydney, even the country of Norway? We can help book you a trip through the Adventures by Disney program. Each trip will allow you and your family to tour the highlights of your destination, involve you into the every day local culture and traditions and come complete with 2 guides to provide storytelling for one amazing experience. And because you are a Disney guest, you may find yourself “fast passing” to the front of the line for many of the traditional tourist attractions that typically come with long wait times to get in.

Complete with signature dining, Broadway-style entertainment, character interactions and recreation for all ages, there are plenty of options available for every member of the family.

6) Disneyland – The granddaddy of all amusement parks! Entertaining guests since 1955, any fan of Disney should make a once-in-a-lifetime pilgrimage to the park that started it all. Step foot on the grounds that Walt Disney himself walked and oversaw during his lifetime. Visit iconic attractions and and meet your favorite characters. Then skip across the way and visit California Adventure for more thrills, shows and excitement. It’s THE trip you’ll wish for upon a star!
5) Walt Disney World – The reason why most of us got into the travel planning business and our NUMBER 1 place to take vacations (with family or solo!) With so many options, companies like ours felt the need to assist the inexperienced, the overwhelmed, the confused and the unsure. So forgive us if we dedicate the next few entries into specifics we can do within Disney Parks.
4) Flexible Itineraries – You’ll never be able to do it all at Disney, no matter how many times you visit. That’s why it’s our job to find the attractions, characters, food and entertainment you enjoy and create a solid itinerary for your family. Once dates, resorts and ticket packages are confirmed, our job gets fun as we live through your desires to create the “Dream Disney Vacation.” And it doesn’t stop once you get to the parks. Our agents are available during the entirety of your vacation to make it all run smoothly.
3) Make Fast Pass selections – If you’re going to Disney World or Disneyland, we’re confident you’re going to the parks. And if you’re going to the parks, we’re confident you’re going to experience attractions. And we have a feeling you won’t want to spend all that money waiting in line for those attractions. Our agents will work with your personal likes and with your height restrictions to select Fast Pass reservations. Allowing you to jump to the front of the line at a designated time of the day, we’ll make sure you keep moving from attraction to attraction, spending more time to ride, shop and eat. Speaking of eating…
2) Make Advanced Dining Reservations – You may need to eat in the parks. For your benefit, there are a few hundred locations at which you can feast. Some dining locations may require reservations and your agent will try to grab those coveted locations at least 180 days before your trip. Balancing table-service with counter-service on a Disney Dining plan, our itineraries will include times allotted to each and we may even suggest a popular snack or two for you to try.
Honorable Mention
Assist with transportation – Need assistance with a rental car or air travel? Our team can help you look for ways to get you there and back.
Assist with “the essentials” – Not sure if you need to bring groceries or rent a stroller? Our team can help you find local vendors who provide those services.
Provide Extra Magic – Don’t be surprised if your agent pulls some strings to make your dream vacation a little more magical!
1) Provide free quotes – It’s a simple but effective business practice that allows us to stand out from others. We are all Disney lovers, but also know the investment that a family makes over the span of a few years to go to the “Happiest Place on Earth.” So ask us about the best deals, discounts, times of year to go, anything really! Then ask us for a free quote. Pepper us with questions about our favorite food, attractions, entertainment options or places to stay. Then ask us for a free quote. Then ask us about special events that are going on during that time. Then ask us for a free quote. It’s a luxury you can enjoy – because it’s free!
