Written by Carol Cain on 10 January 2011

I spend a lot of time in the year planning trips with my family. Sometimes, it’s impossible to coordinate all the schedules and fit them into a trip, which sadly means it never happens.

For all of those who have experienced the hassle of travel planning, Visit Orlando wants you to know that they understand and to help sweeten the experience Visit Orlando is launching its first-ever ‘Vacation Makeover’ search where any traveler in America could be selected to receive the Orlando dream trip of a lifetime that only the country’s most visited vacation destination can deliver. Going on now, travelers can submit stories to VisitOrlando.com/makeover of their memories of their most challenging vacation planning issues, most exhausting excursion, nerve-wracking retreat, or the time a holiday went haywire. Their entry will put them in the running to receive a one-of-a-kind Orlando vacation that solves their previous vacation challenges and comes complete with airfare, accommodations, attraction admissions, ground transportation, and more.

Adding an extra level of fun to an already over-the-top grand prize, winners will be featured in an online travelogue throughout their time in Orlando as they share their experience with a global audience of fans and followers tracking their adventures on Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook.

And to help plan each vacation to perfection, renowned travel expert Emily Kaufman, The Travel Mom, will personally meet each winner to assess their interests and customize each week-long getaway. Together, Kaufman, a celebrity mom and the Visit Orlando vacation delegation will review Orlando’s 100-plus attractions and craft a schedule that satisfies the needs of everyone.

For the chance at one of five completely customized Orlando vacations, travelers must share why they need a vacation makeover in 500 words or less and upload a recent image at VisitOrlando.com/makeover by March 2, 2011. Winners will be announced mid-March.

Who knew the yucky part of travel could lead to so much fun? Enter today and good luck!
