My 7 favourite Disney Parks YouTubers for help planning your trip

Our Disney Adult status is not a secret, but maybe the level of obsession we have for Disney, specifically the Disney Parks and Walt Disney World is, because we’re Disney vlog watchers. All the Disney vlogs, all of the time, even when we’re nowhere near a trip.

These vloggers are very lucky and get to travel to Disney a lot (A LOT) more than we do so there’s a real dose of living vicariously, especially with some of the more expensive hotels and experiences that you often see YouTubers sharing, but they’re also amazing for preparing for your trips.

Whether it’s your first time, your first time in a while, or you’re just looking for advice on where to eat, what parades and shows to get an early spot for, and what’s worth queuing for, these people who visit the parks often and extensively are an invaluable resource.

These 6 channels are newer favourites and are all smaller UK channels with under 20k subscribers. While I appreciate the channels from Orlando locals, it’s the full trip series that have my heart.

Disney Wives

Vicki and Emma’s channel is my newest favourite. These two from Yorkshire are the most enthusiastic and genuine Disney lovers and that comes across in every video. They’re a newer channel with a full Disney World series, a Disneyland Paris mini-series and a Universal Orlando series, with another one to come this September. The videos are nice and long and there’s lots of other familiar vlogging faces that pop up in their videos on trips. I really love watching them and their passion for Disney and the Parks is infectious - I have their Paris series on while I write this!

Max and Alex

Max and Alex are also a newer channel, but it’s incredibly fast-growing so I don’t think they’ll stay in the under 20k subscriber category for very much longer! They definitely show a more luxury side to Disney with a lot of Disney Cruise Line content on longer sailings and long, luxury trips to Disney World in deluxe hotels as they as DVC holders. The travel often and their trips make me super jealous, but it’s really good fun to see rooms, hotels and experiences that I won’t ever be able to afford myself (unless I marry rich and hey, who knows).

Cheers Ears

The Pullen family (Keith, Tracey, Luke and Daisy) are some of the sweetest vloggers I’ve ever some across. They’re DVC holders and stay in a wide range of Disney hotels, showcasing everything the resort has to offer. They travel regularly and also vlog home life and Luke’ racing adventures. They’re the type of family that I wish I could be a part of and they’ve videos are so comforting to watch.

Adventures by Knapp

The Knapps (Siân, Callum, Lyla, Daisy) focus mostly on Disney World and Disney Cruise Line and navigating it as a family. Their channel charts taking young kids to Disney all the way through to older kids and a newborn to come! I really love their most recent series to Vancouver to board an Alaska cruise - my DREAM Disney cruise. They really live up to their channel name of adventures and I’m so looking forward to their trips to come.

Millsiebee

Lorna vlogs her trips to Disney World with her friend, Ellie, and they make such a wonderful duo. They try to give the best tips and tricks for navigating Disney in the hot summer months when they usual travel, how and what to pack, and go full force on getting every moment out of their trips. It’s always really nice to see friends travelling and vlogging together as most channels focus on families and couples so it’s a nice alternative view on Disney trips which applies more to me personally.

Mia Donnelly

Mia started vlogging her Disney trips in 2023 and travels often with a variety of friends and family members. Their joy and excitement comes across really vividly and they always seem like they’re having the most fun possible on their trips. It’s still a new channel with only a few series, but the videos are really nice and long and so easy to watch. I’m really looking froward to seeing how the channel develops.

Rachel and Megan

Sisters Rachel and Megan have the smallest channel on this list, but do one of the most valuable things: they track every penny they spend on their trips to give you a realistic expectation of how much a trip to Disney World costs flying from the UK and staying in a value Disney resort. They have a Disneyland series, a Disneyland Paris and a Walt Disney World series from the last 18 months or so. I’m still working my way through the new WDW series, but I’ll definitely be going back to the other series once I’ve finished.

I clearly spend far too much of my free time watching YouTube… Do you have any favourite UK-based Disney vloggers? I’m always looking for new channels to watch!
