Meet Erica Hipps

Your Personal Concierge to the Magic

Why Work With Me?

My services are completely 100% free to you. As an Affiliate of Academy Travel, I am paid directly by the resorts after you travel. You pay the exact same price as booking directly, but you gain a dedicated expert to handle every detail.

Creating Memories That Last a Lifetime

Hi! I'm a high school teacher by day and a Disney enthusiast all the time. My love for all things Disney has taken me on countless trips to Disneyland and Walt Disney World — so many that I've truly lost count!

I've also had the chance to experience the magic beyond the parks, from relaxing at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa to sailing on a Disney Cruise Line vacation. Each destination offers something unique, and I love helping others discover which Disney experience is perfect for them.

As both a teacher and a planner, I'm organized, detail-oriented, and passionate about creating unforgettable experiences. I can't wait to help you plan a magical vacation filled with memories that will last a lifetime!

We Travel With a Service Animal Too

My husband has a service animal, which means I don't just know Disney's accessibility programs from a planning perspective — I've lived them. We've navigated park entry with a service animal, scoped out relief areas in every park, handled attraction access, and figured out which resorts and room types actually work for traveling as a team of three. If your family travels with a service animal or has accessibility needs, you're talking to someone who genuinely gets it.
