| Business and Company Details:
Magical Vacation Planner by Mark Ambrose Since joining Magical Vacation Planner in March 2018, I have dedicated myself to transforming travel dreams into reality. With a focus on theme parks, cruises, all-inclusive resorts, European vacations, and luxury travel, I offer a comprehensive, full-service planning solution that includes everything from flights and hotel packages to in-destination transportation, dining reservations, and more. Through my partnership with Rail Bookers, I also specialize in European vacations, including rail journeys and multi-city itineraries across the continent. My journey began with a personal experience as a client of MVP, inspired by the exceptional white-glove concierge service that turned my passion for travel and helping others into a career. Recognized for outstanding achievements in 2021 (Bronze Level), 2022 (Silver Level), 2023 (Gold Level), 2024 (Silver Level), and 2025 (Gold Level), I stand proud as one of only five men in the company's history to receive a 5-year service recognition award for $1,000,000+ in Vacations Traveled. I hold 26+ industry certifications across cruise lines, resort brands, and theme parks, ensuring clients get informed, current expertise on every trip I plan. MVP, celebrated for its excellence, has been honored as a Royal Caribbean Partner of the Year, Disney Diamond Earmark Producer, Universal Diamond Preferred Agency, and Apple Leisure Group Partner of the Year, just to name a few. Among my proudest planning accomplishments is arranging a 60+ person destination wedding group at Dreams Royal Beach in Punta Cana, coordinating travel, accommodations, and logistics for the entire wedding party and guests. Serving clients across the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, and internationally, without geographical limitations, my aim is to make Magical Vacation Planner a household name synonymous with stress-free, magical travel experiences. Specializing in theme parks, all-inclusive getaways, cruising, European vacations, and destination weddings, I strive to offer a tailored, no-cost planning service that elevates every vacation to an unforgettable adventure. A fantastic referral for me would be anyone you've talked to that would like to save money, time, and stress when booking their next vacation, cruise, all-inclusive getaway, European trip, or destination wedding. |

| When I m not working, I enjoy . Outside of my professional life, I cherish the time spent with my son and family, embracing every moment we get to explore and create memories together. Our adventures often lead us outdoors, where we enjoy camping, hiking, and simply basking in the beauty of nature. Movie nights are a special treat, especially when the latest action or superhero film hits the screens, providing us with shared excitement and stories to discuss. My love for travel extends beyond my profession; visiting theme parks like Disney and Universal is not just research, it's a passion. There, I satisfy my quest for thrills and immerse myself in the enchanting worlds created within these parks. I also really enjoy cruising as it affords me the ability to satisfy my travel bug at the same time as visiting multiple countries and destinations. In a completely different vein, I’ve found joy and community in axe-throwing, previously competing in a local league under the World Axe Throwing League (WATL), showcasing a unique skill and interest. My evenings spent playing Texas Hold'Em Poker, whether casually with friends or moonlighting as a casino games dealer, reveal a penchant for strategy, risk-taking, and entertainment. Dealing Craps at casino-themed parties, I blend my understanding of the game with humor to ensure everyone's experience is not only fun but memorable. |

| Some of the Clubs, Associations and Volunteer activities that I participate in are
In 2020, amidst the challenges brought by the COVID-19 pandemic, I organized and hosted an online livestream and benefit event dedicated to supporting those most affected within the theme park community. The initiative aimed to raise funds for the Cast Member Pantry, a nonprofit organization providing assistance to theme park employees facing financial hardship due to the pandemic. Through this event, we were able to gather over $3,300 in donations, contributing significantly to the welfare of the cast members and showcasing the strength and generosity of our community during trying times. This effort not only reflects my commitment to the theme park industry but also underscores my belief in the power of community support and solidarity. |
