Meet Katie
Founder & Lead Travel Planner
Hi — I’m Katie. I plan Disney, Universal, and cruise vacations for families who don’t have 40 spare hours to figure it all out themselves.
I’m a mom, and I’ve done these trips the real way. I’ve stayed at value resorts and I’ve done the VIP tours. I’ve pushed a stroller through Magic Kingdom in July. I’ve figured out which lines are worth it, which snacks are worth it, and exactly when a four-year-old needs to get back to the pool.
That’s the difference between a planner and a search engine. Google can tell you what the options are. I can tell you which one is right for your family — because I’ve stood in those exact shoes.
How I Work
- Calm, not chaotic. You get one clear plan, not fifty options to compare.
- Honest about money. I’ll tell you where to spend and where to save. Sometimes the cheaper choice is the better one.
- Built around your kids. Ages, naps, food, fears of costumed characters — it all goes into the plan.
- With you the whole way. From first question to welcome-home, you have a person, not a booking site.
Crowned And Booked Travel is based in Colorado Springs, Colorado — and since everything happens by form, email, and quick calls, I plan trips for families all across the country.
Quick Answers
Who plans the trips at Crowned And Booked?
Katie — the founder and lead planner. She is a mom who has done these trips the real way, from value resorts to VIP tours, and she plans every trip personally.
What destinations can Katie book?
Every Disney destination in the world — Disney World, Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Aulani in Hawaii, and Adventures by Disney — plus Universal Orlando, Epic Universe, and cruises on Disney and other lines.
Does it cost extra to work with Katie?
No. The travel companies pay the commission. You pay the same price as booking it yourself and get a full plan and a real person with it.
Do you only work with Colorado families?
No — Crowned And Booked is based in Colorado Springs but plans trips for families all across the United States, by form, email, and quick calls.
How is a planner different from booking online?
A booking site shows you every option. Katie tells you which one is right for your family — and stays with you through price drops, dining windows, and trip-day questions.
