Certified Autism Travel Professional

I'm a autism accessible travel agent, owner of EZ Access2 Travel, located in Arnprior, which is close to Ottawa, Ontario. I am a Certified Autism Travel Professional and a Autism Behaviour Specialist. I hold a Degree in Child And Youth Development and Certifications in Autism and Behavior Science. Over the past 20 years I have worked extensively as a Autism Behavior Specialist in both home-based and center-based settings.

Recently I combined my passion for travel with my professional expertise to help families create customized travel experiences. In 2023 I started my new journey as a Autism Travel Professional.

As a parent of two sons with Autism I understands firsthand the challenges and joys of traveling with neurodiverse children. Over the past decade, my family and I have traveled by land, air, and sea all over Canada, the United States, Mexico, Alaska, and the Caribbean.

Thankfully, I have done over a decade of research in planning an autism-friendly trip so you don't have to. l will provide you with a personalized itinerary. I will set up all accommodations with airports, airlines, cruise lines, hotels, resorts, and attractions.

Above all, I can offer additional consultations that would focus on evidence based methods to improve a range of areas, including social, sensory, communication and behaviour. I will work with you to create an in-home plan and set trip-related goals. I want your family to be confident in your ability travel. But most importantly, I want you to have a good time, relax, make long-lasting memories, and recharge.

Let me create your unique pathway and remove those barriers so you can explore the world without limits. Time is all we have, and there are infinite possibilities to explore. There is no "one size fits all" approach. True inclusion starts with a unique, accessible design. Lets find your unique design!

Christine was wonderful through the whole process. Her expertise and knowledge of the Vegas area was perfect and she was quick to answer all of our questions, even during the trip. I would highly recommend her as a travel agent!!

Jillian - Las Vegas | Nevada | USA

Christine provided exceptional assistance in organizing our trip to Mexico. She streamlined the booking process, sent timely reminders as the payment due date approached, and ensured we had all the necessary information prior to our departure. Additionally, she proactively checked in with us to address any questions we had leading up to the trip. During our travels, she also reached out to inform us of a norovirus outbreak in the area, allowing us to take the appropriate precautions. It was a pleasure to work with her, and I will certainly contact her for our future travel arrangements!

Stacey - Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico

Christine worked tirelessly to secure our booking at the best price possible, monitoring prices and communicating with us constantly throughout the process. Amazing service!

Lisa - Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico

Christine was the best agent i had out of all of my traveling. We had a little hiccup and she fixed it very quick. Tild me don't worry I'll fix it right in the morning. (cuz it was 10pm) but by 11pm she messaged me back saying sorry for messaging you so late but I couldn't go to sleep knowing about this hiccup so I fixed it right away. And within 1hr it was all good. Any questions I have she is right on them either telling me the answer or showing me it with a pic. Best experience ever. Will always use her for any other trips I have!!

tia - Cuba | Caribbean

Christene booked a trip to thr Dominican Republic for my 2 adult daughters and their workers. They have vacationed previously however no travel agent has put so many accommodations in place to ensure a smooth and enjoyable trip. I cannot recommend Christene enough. She goes above and beyond to ensure everyone has a great time.

Athlete2 - Dominican Republic | Caribbean

Christine was very helpful for pointers for our first time in Las Vegas. We definitely plan to go again.

Chantale - Las Vegas | Nevada | USA

Did a wonderful job planning out the trip and activities for our day, laid it out in a simple and efficient way to make the most of our trip.

Austin - Mexico

Best agent I have ever had. Everything went as planned

Mema - Arizona ~ USA

Happy customer - Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA

Christine was so helpful from day one. She had been in contact and responded quickly to any questions up to the trip and even after trip. She organized everything for us in an app that we could access easily. Very progressional and I will book with her again. I highly recommend Christine:)

Farbie - Dominican Republic | Caribbean

Christine was amazing she worked with us right from the beginning providing us with many options and working with our needs as a family! Christine answered all our questions promptly even the silly ones lol she made special requests to the hotel as we were celebrating a graduation and we received many perks! As a family of seven she had it where our rooms were right by each other! Christine provided us with all the information for our trip and there were no unexpected surprises which made it a stress feee experience. She would check in with us and made sure we knew we could contact her throughout our stay if there were any issues, which there were none ?? definitely will be booking with Christine again!

LONeal - Dominican Republic | Caribbean

Christine helped my family to plan a vacation to Mexico without special needs daughter. She is very high needs and we knew nothing about what accommodations were available to us. Christine took as much time as we needed to walk us through everything. She followed up on all of our questions and put everything in place for us so we didn't have to worry. She was extremely responsive, answering my emails very quickly and even offering to get involved when we had an accommodation issue at the resort. I will100% use her services the next time we travel and recommend her to any family needing this type of support. Thank for your help Christine! Our trip was a success thanks to you!

klgdc - Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico

I highly recommend Christine Lutz for anyone planning a Disney vacation. From the moment I contacted her, she was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and dedicated to making our trip magical. Planning a Disney trip can be overwhelming, especially when your child has special needs. Christine took the stress out of the process by listening to our preferences and creating a customized itinerary perfect for our family. She handled booking our flights, resort, park tickets, and helped us navigate Disney's Accessibility Service and accommodations. Her invaluable tips and advice, along with prompt and thorough responses to our questions, made the experience seamless. Thanks to Christine's expertise, we had an unforgettable Disney experience. Everything was well-organized, allowing us to relax and enjoy our vacation without worries. I will definitely use Christine again for our next trip! Highly recommended!

DisneyFan - Orlando | Florida | USA

Here is a gift of appreciation (The Keg gift card) to you both for being so amazing to my children while on the cruise, and of course, all your help Christine with basically everything! We wouldn't have had as great of a time if it wasn't for you!! Love Jillian, Mason and Avery

First Family Cruise - Bahamas | Caribbean

I was nervous to book a cruise. I thought I would get sea sick. Christine made me feel confident and gave me some cruise tips. I am so glad she did because I really enjoyed the cruise and will be booking another one.

Jon - Bahamas | Caribbean

Our trip was absolutely amazing. Thank you for everything you did to make it memorable.

Ang - Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico

The resort was one of the nicest we've ever been to. Amazing facilities, food was great and the beach was beautiful. Christine has been a great agent with over the top service.

Ryan - Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico

I was introduced to Christine through a business contact. I have used other travel services before and left feeling unappreciated. This by far was nothing close to that. Christine took the time to understand my wife and I and what we were looking for in a vacation, and made suggestions that were tailored to OUR needs and wants. She took the time over several evenings texting back and forth until she found us the perfect package. If you are looking for great service and someone who is invested in your enjoyment, I highly recommend that you reachout. You will understand in your first interaction why we dicided to book with her for our trip. We now have a travel agent for all our future vacations. If the resort is half as good as the service Christine provided we are going ta have a fantastic time.. Stay tuned I will do another post after we get back!! Thanks Again Christine!!!

RG33 - Cuba | Caribbean

I had the pleasure of working with Christine to book our recent trip. She went above and beyond to arrange special accommodations for my child’s autism with both the airline and the resort. Even while on vacation herself, she was quick to respond to all of my emails. She also helped us secure a resort that had an issue with availability on the Sunwing website, going the extra mile to call customer service and sort everything out. Truly exceptional service!
