Meet Nikki
I’m Nikki, a UK-based mum and travel blogger with a lifelong passion for all things Disney. Having explored Disney parks across the globe for nearly 30 years, I know exactly what it takes to plan a magical escape from the British perspective.
I created Orlando From UK to provide honest, practical, and up-to-date advice tailored specifically for UK travellers. Whether you are navigating school holidays or budgeting for the parks, my goal is to help you plan a seamless and unforgettable Florida adventure

My Journey to the Mouse
✨
I’m a travel blogger from Bolton and a mum to two boys. I first visited Walt Disney World in 1995, and Disney has been part of my life ever since. Together with my partner, I’ve now visited all 12 Disney parks worldwide.
Why I Started Orlando From UK
I created Orlando From UK because most Orlando planning advice online is written from a US perspective, and UK families often have very different questions — school holidays, flights, dining plans, budgeting, travel documents, and trip length can all look different when you’re travelling from the UK. My aim is simple: honest, practical, up-to-date Orlando advice specifically for UK travellers.
My Orlando Experience
I took my eldest son to Orlando for the first time in 2021 — his first Disney trip. Since then, my second son was born and has also visited Orlando with us. We’ve also visited Disneyland Paris, Hong Kong Disneyland, and Tokyo Disney Resort as a family. Seeing Disney through a child’s eyes, and learning what actually works for young families, is what shapes the advice I share here.
Every Family is Different
Every family enjoys Orlando differently — not every child loves rides, and that’s fine. I believe the best Orlando holidays are built around what your family actually enjoys, not trying to do everything.
My Top Orlando Tip
Download the My Disney Experience app as early as possible. It’s one of the most useful planning tools you’ll have, both before and during your trip.
Thank You for Visiting
Whether this is your first Orlando holiday or you’re a seasoned visitor after the latest updates, I hope Orlando From UK helps you plan a trip your family will remember.
