Working with Marisa was an absolute dream! I had a very last-minute vacation idea, and she pulled everything together perfectly, exceeding our expectations! Her thoroughness was evident throughout - going the extra mile by reminding us of next steps, due dates, and flight check-ins. Throughout the process, Marisa was thoughtful of our budget and provided recommendations that fit perfectly with our parameters. I also appreciated that she provided real-life advice, based on what works for her and her family. I always felt she had our family's best interests in mind, and going forward, I can’t imagine booking a vacation without her consultation. The final touch was the sweet note that was waiting for us in our hotel room – wishing us an amazing trip.

The best vacation decision you will make is letting Marisa handle the details. Marisa has a gift for making the overwhelming feel manageable, so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the destination.

Marisa was friendly and very easy to work with. She listened well to what we were looking for and did an excellent job tailoring her suggestions to our desires. She went above and beyond with thinking through all the details, which made our vacation time smooth and stress-free. All the planning work was done before we left home, so we could just enjoy our time abroad.

During our trip I woke up each morning, looked at our itinerary on the FORA app, and just followed the plan. Our family made very few adjustments. The pace was just about perfect, which is entirely due to Marisa listening so well to us ahead of time about how we like to vacation.

New experiences like taking a train during rail reconstruction in a country where we don't speak the language could have been intimidating, but because Marisa had talked us through it ahead of time and done so much planning for us (pre-hiring drivers to and from train stations, buying train tickets, writing directions in the FORA app, etc), we felt confident about what we were doing.

I'm grateful for Marisa's help with our trip and would use her services again in a heartbeat.

We are forever grateful for the services that Mrs.Butterworth travel provided! Using her expertise as a Disney consultant was absolutely a godsend ... and I would never advise taking a trip to Disney without a Disney consultant ... which by the way is a completely free service.

When our flights were delayed two whole days because of tornados and TSA delays, Marisa was on the phone immediately with Disney helping move our trip, our tickets, our hotel rooms, etc...

If we had booked everything ourselves, it would have been a nightmare to navigate. She spent hours and hours helping us and I will forever be grateful. She was so optimistic and a shoulder to cry on as well.

She also gave us excellent advice about purchasing travel insurance. A Disney trip is expensive and there is a lot to learn about navigating the system and having someone to lean on throughout our trip was so comforting. Thank you Marisa for all you did for us...you went above and beyond! The Biggs family loves you!

We have always loved everything Disney. As we raised four children, we visited Disney World about every four years with them. We hadn’t been to Disney World in six years, and as newly empty nesters we were wanting to experience the magic again. Since our Disney planning knowledge was rusty as so much has changed since we last visited, we were beyond thankful to have @mrs.butterworthtravel help organize the PERFECT Disney experience for us. We told Marisa what kind of trip we were looking for, and she over delivered for us! She booked our lodging, dining reservations, and even rose extra early to make sure we had all our chosen lightning lanes secured. Marisa knows the ins and outs of how Disney works and we would’ve been lost without her expertise. She helped make our days flow seamlessly and helped us navigate each park so we didn’t miss a thing. Marisa was organized, knowledgeable and kept us on track in the best way. She was ALWAYS quick to respond to any questions we had (and we had a lot!) and provided us with guidance and details that allowed us to simply throw clothes in a suitcase and be excited about our trip. We have used travel agents in the past, but the thing that makes @mrs.butterworthtravel special is that she is just as excited about your trip as you are. We felt like we weren’t just doing business through a screen, but rather, felt the energy and excitement of someone who wanted to make it as special of a trip as though it were her own. We would utilize Marisa’s expertise again in a heartbeat and are still relishing the magic of our perfect Disney trip.

I recently traveled to Walt Disney World, and was completely overwhelmed by the options and choices! Enter: Marisa Butterworth. Booking with Marisa was an absolute delight and so incredibly helpful - she provided pricing options, pros and cons for different resorts, and other tips for all-things-Disney. After I booked, Marisa continued to check in with me about what to expect regarding the weather, reservations for dining, and lots of additional tips for travel. I went from overwhelmed to super excited about the trip, knowing that she had everything covered. I highly recommend booking with her!
