My family and I ran into you last week as you were leaving international gateway and we were park hopping from AK to Epcot and you were kind enough to take a quick photo with us. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with everyone! It makes our vacations so much more enjoyable when we feel like we’re prepared and making the most of our trip. Your shared love of Disney shows and we know so much hard work goes into making these videos. We’ve recommended your channel to anyone we know that’s preparing for their WDW trip!

Great video full of Christmas joy! I love that your videos are always so positive.. even when you are critiquing, you do it in a way that is helpful as opposed to just complaining. Your videos put smiles on many faces! Wishing you and Erick the best for 2024 and I hope to run into you at our next visit!

Your channel is my favorite of all Disney content. You give such helpful, practical advice. You help others understand how to use Genie+, where to stay, even shortcuts to take and much more! Thank you!

Chef’s kiss to your content 👌🏾amazing as always!!! While watching your video, my mother confessed that she always wanted to stay at the wilderness lodge but never had a chance to. We will surely make that dream come true for her next year for Christmas. Thank you once again for your amazing content. It is truly a diamond in the rough❤️

@earscouts Rob it was great meeting you briefly on the Boardwalk. Boardwalk is definitely one of our favorite resorts and happy it made your list! We’ve mastered LL’s thanks to your videos and tips. My family thinks I’m crazy for getting up early until they reap the benefits. Even got my wife in on the Genie Slots. Hope you have a Merry Christmas and thanks again for all the great videos and tips!

We saw you a couple of weeks ago as we were being shown to our Grand Floridian. You and Eric were kind enough to take a picture with me. I was just telling my sister next time we go at Christmas I would rather stay at Wilderness Lodge because the crowds at GF were crazy - especially for the monorail.

Rob, you and my son Tyler's Christmas surprise was AWESOME! It made my day. I love your videos and watch them as soon as they drop. I also recommend them to all my friends and family that are headed to WDW. I hope you and Eric have an amazing holiday season and enjoy each other in all your favorite WDW spots. Thanks for being a truly good person. All the best going into 2024. Todd

Hi Rob! I have never prepared even this thoroughly for my exams, but I watched all your recent videos where you explain Genie+ so well. We followed exactly what you said and were able to check off every single attraction for all 4 parks. We even followed your little tips on shortcut routes at Mk, best seating for the safari and how the last row is the best seating for Everest. You are too good!!Thank you for all that you do. When we started out Day 1, my husband said “what worked for Rob may not work for us”. At the end of our trip he said “please thank him for THE best tips and tricks, I am so impressed”. Happy Holidays and please post more Disney videos, major Disney blues happening right now 😅

Hello! So glad you enjoyed this one. Most of the food-focused videos we do are for the Epcot festivals, but maybe we need to do some more restaurant coverage in 2024. Sounds delicious. 🤤🤣 Thanks for the suggestion! 👍

@user-gy5mr9nr9r 6 ай бұрын

Rob…love your videos. You have THE best advice. Do have a question… We will be going to WDW on Jan 17 for 3 days. What do you think are the best parks to combine if park hopping? Or how would you link parks if hopping?-start?-hop to?

Putting Fort Wilderness above Grand Floridian is criminal. The campsite decorations are good for 1 hour but then you've seen enough

@EarScouts 5 ай бұрын

Yup - I think we even said in the video that we knew it would be a controversial position in the list. But the campsite decorations were just one of the things we loved there - also Hoop-Dee-Doo, the cabins are so cozy (though about to be less-so, it seems) and there are so many great resort activities there. But Wilderness Lodge is far and away my favorite.
