About Becca, the Theme Park Tips Gal

Becca Robins is the creator behind Theme Park Tips Gal, a trusted resource for families, first-time visitors, and budget-conscious travelers who want to make the most of their Disney and Universal vacations — without the stress, confusion, or overspending that often comes with planning a theme park trip.

Becca has been sharing Disneyland tips since 2011, originally through her travel website This Crazy Adventure Called Life. After more than a decade of helping families plan vacations, she shifted her focus fully to YouTube, social media, and community building, officially retiring the blog at the end of 2024 to focus on Theme Park Tips Gal as her next chapter.

For more than 14 years, Becca has visited Disneyland, Walt Disney World, and Universal Studios multiple times each year, building a deep understanding of attractions, crowd patterns, transportation, touring strategies, and the ever-changing park systems. Her goal is simple: to make theme park travel feel approachable, fun, and empowering — like getting advice from a best friend who actually knows what she’s talking about.

In addition to YouTube, newsletters, and social platforms, Becca is the co-host of Castle Talk Radio, a theme-park-focused podcast she runs with Jessica Sanders (The Happiest Blog on Earth). She also creates community-driven experiences through Theme Park Besties, her membership program designed for travelers who want connection, insider tips, and a little extra magic.

Becca is also the creator and organizer of Influencing the Magic (formerly AWEsome Retreat), an educational retreat for theme-park-focused content creators. She is a co-founder of the Disneyland with Kids Facebook Group, a community of more than 40,000 families seeking help and advice for planning their Disneyland trips.

Outside of her own brand, Becca works with local businesses and vacation destinations by creating and managing their social media — combining her expertise in storytelling, marketing strategy, and travel.

While she occasionally offers 1:1 planning consults, her primary focus is empowering travelers with tools, resources, and honest advice so they can plan confidently on their own.

When she isn’t filming videos or diving into the next project, you’ll find Becca exploring the parks with her husband and their three theme-park-loving boys — or with her Theme Park Bestie and co-creator Toni — always searching for new experiences to share with her community.
