About White Pelican Travel Co.
Thoughtfully Planned. Family Approved.
At White Pelican Travel Co., we plan vacations that are as meaningful, and memory-filled as they should be—without the overwhelm.
We specialize in Disney vacations, river and ocean cruises, national parks, and family-friendly getaways across the U.S., and we do it all with one goal in mind: to help real families travel better.
About Us
Why We Are Starting
Like many families, our love of travel started with a big dream: our very first family trip to Walt Disney World. We planned every detail ourselves—and while it was an incredible experience, it was also a lot. On our next trip, we decided to work with a travel agent... only to discover they didn’t understand the parks themselves at all, we were booked at a resort that completely didn't suit us, and missed important planning pieces that really matter inside the “Disney bubble.”
We found that many local travel agents were great with the same big-name resorts —but often missed the mark when it came to custom family-friendly travel. So, we decided to do things differently: a travel agency built by a real family, for real families.
Our Values
As a family ourselves, we know how important it is to feel safe, relaxed, and welcome on vacation. We focus on trips that are truly family-friendly—not party scenes in disguise. Whether you're bringing toddlers or teens, we help you find the right resort, cruise, or itinerary so everyone can enjoy the adventure.
We believe
- Kid-friendly doesn’t mean boring
- Safe spaces for your entire family
- Personal attention (no one-size-fits-all trips)
- Planning with heart, honesty, and joy
Why "White Pelican"?
The Majestic American White Pelican
If you’ve ever seen a white pelican gliding over the water in Florida, you know how calm, graceful, and beautifully memorable they are. That feeling—of slowing down, soaking in the moment, and being present with the people you love—is what we hope every White Pelican trip creates. That’s what we aim to create with every trip we plan.
White pelicans are also known for their teamwork and navigation—two things we think every family vacation needs.
But there’s even more to the name. Pelican symbolism reflects so much of what we stand for as a family travel company. These birds remind us of the importance of strong family connections, protecting the people we love, and creating space for rest, reflection, and joy. They represent balance, nurturing, generosity, and the idea that taking care of others starts with taking care of ourselves.
White Pelicans teach us that there’s wisdom in slowing down, in looking within, and in traveling with intention—not just to check destinations off a list, but to reconnect with what matters most.
That’s the heart behind White Pelican Travel Co.
