Hi! My name is Brenda Arnold-Richard, and I live near Houston, Texas. When I took my first trip to Walt Disney World in 2002, I thought I’d check it off my bucket list, and move on to other things. But I fell in love! I’ve been back more times than I can count, also visited Disneyland California often, and even done some Disney Cruises — and I’m always planning the “next time”! Disney’s brand of customer service is amazing, their attention to detail is fantastic, and I can never get enough!
I was so excited to become a Disney Travel Planner with Travel With The Magic, so I can help you have the most perfect Disney experience for your vacation, too. From itinerary planning to choosing the best hotel and restaurants for your group, I love to help people have a magical time and fall in love with Disney like I did!
And if you’d like to branch out and try Universal Orlando, I can help with that as well! The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is incredible, and they have SO many fun thrill rides and shows, and excellent hotels as well – it’s a great destination!
From Universal to all of Disney’s destinations around the world, All-Inclusive Resorts, and Cruises, let me use my expertise to help you get the most out of your vacations! I look forward to working with you to create some great memories with your family!

Brenda did an excellent job in planning all aspects of my vacation, including finding me a discount after I had booked. She gave lots of advice from hotels to fastpasses and even the dessert parties which were a blast. Would definitely recommend her services to anyone visiting Disney. She planned a great vacation.
In October of 2018, my husband and I started planning our daughter’s fifth birthday celebration in Disney World for Mach 2019. Everything seemed overwhelming: where to stay, dining plan, park tickets, party planning!! And then . . . The heavens opened and we found Brenda Arnold on a website advertising her free assistance in planning a trip to Disney World!!! Did that say free?
My husband emailed Brenda the following day, and the Magic truly began! She began organizing our accommodations, flights, Magical Express, park tickets, dining plans, character reservations, parade planning, fast passes, even a birthday cake delivery!!
Our trip was absolutely amazing!!! Brenda’s expertise made my daughter’s birthday the celebration of a lifetime! If you are planning your first trip or your 35th trip to Disney, I highly recommend using Brenda to guide you to the best vacation your money can buy. You will not be disappointed!! We love you Brenda!
My family of 9 just spent 5 days (walked 45 miles) at Disney and everyone had a wonderful time thanks to Brenda’s thorough planning and advice. Throughout our trip, we all said it over and over again, “We never would have had so much fun without her help.” She went above and beyond what I expected from her and made sure we were completely taken care of from beginning to end. Thank you Brenda !
I cannot believe I almost booked a Disney vacation without this incredible and free service with Brenda! I mentioned to a friend who visits Disney 2+ times annually, that I was looking to book a trip around the holiday. I have an international travel agent, but I thought a domestic trip, I would be fine to handle the logistics myself. While that may have been true, I can honestly say I am so glad I didn’t do it myself! A Disney vacation is a huge undertaking and without the help of Brenda and her thorough knowledge about the parks and resorts, I don’t think our trip would have been even a fraction of what it turned out to be. Brenda covered every single detail and made the entire process of planning completely effortless and the trip itself, aside from just being FUN, we truly got the most out of every minute with her advanced planning. I spoke to several people in lines who just planned their trips on their own, and were not nearly as enthused with their park experience, because they were so unprepared. I cannot stress how vital this service is and what a pleasure it was working with Brenda! I reached out to her with my own plans, and she responded to me with a few suggestions to start and we revamped the entire thing, getting more for our money by taking her valuable suggestions and got the most out of our time as well! Many thanks to Brenda, as well as my dear friend Christy for getting me in contact with her!!!
Brenda planned our family vacation to Disney World and it was amazing. My family of 4 has been to Disney World several times and I have always made all of the reservations myself. This time there were 10 of us going to Disney World and I needed help….Brenda to the rescue. I turned it over to Brenda and she did all of the work. She did an amazing job. She recommended a few restaurants that we had not been to and she made all of the reservations and got all 10 of us on all of our dining reservations. She also made all of our Fast Pass reservations. I will definitly use Brenda’s services again on our next trip.
We just got back from a week long stay at Disneyworld. My daughter got Brenda’s name from a friend and I was so glad I called her to set up our Disneyworld trip. My whole family had a fantastic memorable experience at Disney World. It truly was a magical vacation, made possible by Brenda’s outstanding planning. The planning included the resort stay, the rides at all of the theme parks, the shows, the meals, and the photo package. She even included when the crowds would be the busiest at the individual parks. I am probably forgetting something, but rest assured, Brenda is extremely efficient at planning. She was always available to give “Disney” vacation tips and receive our incessant questions as well. Brenda handled all of the details for our trip, from beginning to the very end. Any situation that arose she made sure there was an answer or a solution; she’s an invaluable source of information and incredibly nice! She made sure we would feel and see all of Disney World’s magic. I won’t bother with any other travel agent for future vacations, Brenda is it!
Disney World is the place to be for a “magical” transcending experience. And, if Brenda says to take a break mid-week from the theme parks, just do it, she knows best! Thank you again and again Brenda for your excellent travel agent services. Forever grateful.
Brenda made our 1st family trip so easy. She gave so much knowledgeable information we didnt even think about. I’m so glad a friend referred her to us. She is a gem and we will definitely be planning future trips with her again!
I literally could write a novel with my amazing experience with Brenda! It all started when I tried to book our family Disney world trip by myself. I had horrible times to reservations and things were a mess! I had no clue what I was doing. Brenda graciously offered to help and thank god! Before our trip she emailed me with options, activities, movie list for the kids to watch, apps to download, car rental rates, etc the list goes on and on. She was able to rebook our hotel room to a better location at the resort (it was amazing being so close to the pool, food court & shuttle!), she made all my fast pass reservations and woke up early that morning (oh and she made them in the same area so we didn’t have to walk so much), she made the best dinning reservations and knew all the tricks to get them, and best of all… she was holding my hand the whole way and even on the trip. Spuratic changes and last minute plans on our part were not a big deal when she got back to me immediately! So impressed and grateful. This was my trip of a lifetime and I couldn’t have done it without her. Now my family wants to go back again! Thank you Brenda!!!!
We decided to go to Disneyland in Aug of 2017. We knew we wanted to go but had no idea about ticket purchases, itinerary or the like. Friends of ours suggested we contact Brenda and I am glad we did. We just got home about a week ago and we had a blast. Brenda’s itinerary worked out amazingly with my plan to see the parks in a grid pattern going from one section of the park to the next the itinerary worked perfectly. I would highly recommend Brenda and Travel with the Magic to anyone planning a Disney Vacation.
Thanks for all your help Brenda.

We just returned from a fabulous Disney vacation that Brenda planned for us. This is the second time that we have used Brenda to book our Disney vacation and I cannot say enough good things about how helpful, resourceful and responsive she is. Planning for a Disney trip with two young children can be a bit overwhelming, but Brenda made the planning part a breeze! She even managed to secure an upgraded room for us at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge at no extra cost. I have already referred friends and will definitely use her for our next Disney trip!
