Book your own hotel by doing search on this forum and by asking specific questions. Make reservation by e-mails. You do not need a travel agent.

Are you planning to stay on Disney property? If so, you can contact Disney reservations directly and book the hotel. I don't have the phone number handy, but you can get it off the website, www.disney.com. You should also look at Deb Wills' site, www.wdwig.com for information on the hotels and how to book. Booking a hotel through Disney is so easy that you don't need a travel agent.

Hi Yukio:
Sorry for Minnie's rude reply. I guess you are coming from Japan.
Wow, that's a long trip!
I agree you do not need a travel agent for booking a hotel. Check the websites out that ilisa gave you.
Have a wonderful honeymoon!

Apologies if I seemed rude, didn't mean to be. I was rushed and had heard not-such-good things about Kingdom Magic. I second everyone's recommendation to book things yourself on-line. For one thing, if you are unsure of the language, the 'net is patient and will not rush you. And you can always come here if there's something you don't understand about booking on-line. I'll try not to be so curt next time.

Don't be so fast to rule out a travel agent. I look for what I want on the web then call my agent and say, I can get XXX for XXX, can you beat it. Most of the time she comes close enough it isn't worth using the net.

Oh please, Anon (anonymous travel agent that is). Yukio, there are two types of people on this thread, sellers and what they hope are their customers. Sellers will try to steer you to whichever venue will earn commissions or profits for themselves or their colleagues. The unwilling "customers" on this site are do-it-yourselfers when it comes to travel, and the internet makes it unbelievably easy. Why do think so many travel agents are lurking here, trying to point out the advantages of using a TA? Because they are LOSING business to the internet and have to come here to try and reclaim lost customers. Airlines, hotels, car rental agencies, etc.. all offer internet sites which allow you to book directly and cut out the middleman -- the travel agent.

Book through the internet, easier, faster, far cheaper.
