Kim Minardi
Hi! My name is Kim Minardi, and I am an Agent Resource Manager and Travel Advisor at Wonderland and Beyond Travel.
Howdy friends! I am a 12 year Army Veteran and Military spouse. I am originally from Northeast Philadelphia and South Jersey. We have now picked our “forever” home in Northeast Ohio! I have four crazy/beautiful/smart/ strong willed daughters. I decided to end my military career when I had my first daughter. With both my husband and I serving, and the possibility of being away from one another and our children, we decided that it be best for me to hold down the fort!
Vacations and family time are very important to me due to in my own personal family dynamic. The best part of being an agent is the fact that I can help others experience the Magic of Disney as well as other destinations that they can spend time with their loved ones and create everlasting memories.
I have been all over the world, and we have just moved from Germany to the USA this past summer. Without any question in my mind, the Walt Disney World in Orlando Florida is my most favorite place. To me Disney isn’t just a place, it is a feeling and in my eyes everything about Disney is Magical. It is a place that your dreams really do come true, little girls become Princesses, and little boys become Pirates and Super Heroes. I have always been a Disney lover, but seeing my daughters adore it just as much as I do is simply priceless!
Booking unforgettable vacations for families is something that I absolutely adore. I always treat your vacation as if I was planning my own. I have the experience to give great advice on what to do, as well as give opinions on things that I would avoid. I will provide you with insider tips and advice, using my education and personal experience to guide your vacation decisions in a way that provides you with the best vacation possible for you and your hard-earned investment. My job is to help you find the most magical vacation that works for your family.
“You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.” -Walt Disney
Guest Testimonials
Absolutely LOVE this company and especially out personal Travel agent Kim! We have booked multiple trips through them over the last 3 years and every time I am blown away with the quality and affordability of the trips we book plus Kim makes it so easy and does all the hard work for me. Some of our favorite trips have been a 7-day Christmas vacation at Walt Disney world with all 5 kids and out super plush 2-week Bahamas 🇧🇸 trip that we stayed in a 5-star hotel, had a butler and swam with pigs 🐽 and sharks 🦈. Currently planning a around the world trip with our 5 kids and we are so excited to embark on this amazing adventure together as a family. I have always been a person that gets deals through cheap flights and such but using Kim at Wonderland had made the process even cheaper and waaaayyyy easier for me. I tell all my friends to book with her because she is that good! If you are on the fence about using this travel agency and worried that you will have “hidden costs” let me, put your mind at ease- no hidden fees and they will get it for you cheaper than even you could do it through hours of research on all the cheap sites. Do it! Plan your trip with them and start your dream vacation. - The Traveling Halcombs
We recommend, Kim Minardi, to anyone who asks us about visiting anything Disney. She has been very helpful in our last four trips, with coordinating our travel to and from the Orlando airport and setting up our family dinning arrangements. She has a very personable, professional attitude and genuinely cares that you and your family have the best vacation possible. If you have any questions, she is just a phone call away, and will work hard to get you an answer if she does not have one readily available. - Robert Attison
I had Kim Minardi book our 1st trip to Disney as a family of 4. Using a travel agent helped so much. We were kind of lost on what to buy, where to stay, how to buy tickets/dining plans/make a Disney account, and Kim helped out so much. We went during covid, so things were changing, but Kim gave us a heads up the entire time. We knew about making park reservations and she gave us great ideas on where to eat (especially with an infant and toddler). She was prompt, professional, gave great reminders and recommendations and she definitely knows her Disney stuff! If you're looking for someone to help you plan your Disney vacation, please ask for Kim. She is the best and really loves her job! - Marissa Reardon
Vacation Favorites
Favorite Snack: The bagged Caramel popcorn; it’s so yummy and I can finish an entire bag minutes!
Favorite Quick Service: Pinocchio Village Hause, I love there Caprese Flat Bread Pizzas and looking down at It’s a Small World.
Favorite Ride: I love Peter Pan! It is my favorite due to the story that lies behind it about a boy who lived in a place where children never grow up and they stay young by using their imagination. This is exactly why Walt Disney created these Magical places. He wanted people to come to a place where they can bring out their inner child and let their imagination run wild!
Favorite Character Meal: 1900 Park Fare; the food is absolutely the best on Disney Property in my opinion and I love the Cinderella Characters.
Favorite Resort Hotel: My favorite resort is the Polynesian. I absolutely love every single thing about this resort and you cannot beat the location! As soon as you step out of the lobby you are looking directly at Cinderella’s Castle. There is nothing like swimming in the pool at night and watching the Fireworks with the music being played throughout the resort.
Favorite Memory: I truly experienced Disney magic after taking my daughter to Walt Disney world when she was about 18 months old. The way her face lit up watching the Wishes nighttime spectacular show and fireworks were truly priceless. It was my most magical memory that I will treasure forever.
