A guide from your hosts

Everything we'd tell a friend planning an Orlando trip.

Four sections, four years of hosting families. The honest version: Disney is the headliner, Universal punches above its weight, the restaurants outside the parks are better than the ones inside, and you don't have to spend $200/person every day.

Creators we trust

Not a directory — just the two channels we'd actually point a friend to in each language. We re-verify the links on a quarterly cadence.

The Tim Tracker

Tim and Jenn live in Orlando and basically vlog the parks for a living. If you want to see what a Disney or Universal day actually looks like before you go — queues, food, crowd vibes, all of it — their channel is the closest thing to a preview you'll find. Great for first-time visitors and families with younger kids who want to know what to expect.

Disney Food Blog (DFB)

AJ Wolfe's team has been reviewing every snack, restaurant, and seasonal treat in Walt Disney World for over a decade. If you're the kind of traveler who plans your day around the food — Epcot Food & Wine, Mickey premium bars, the best counter-service in each park — DFB is the source. Pairs nicely with our own restaurant picks for the rest of the trip.

SiDisney

The Spanish-language arm of The DIS network — the same team behind one of the largest English-language Disney communities. Their YouTube and podcast cover Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and Disney Cruise Line from a planning angle, with production value that holds up against the bigger English channels. Best Spanish-language source we've found for actually-useful trip-planning content.
