Hi, I’m Tom Zonts—theme park enthusiast, podcast host, vlogger, and the creator behind the Vacationeers Theme Parks & More Podcast and Vacationeers Podcast YouTube channel.
I launched the Vacationeers Theme Parks & More podcast back in 2017, originally as a fun way to bond with my oldest son over our shared love of theme parks. What started as a father-son project quickly grew into something much bigger. I created the YouTube channel as a visual companion to the podcast. Over time, that channel became more than just a supplement—it’s now a major part of what I do.
After moving to Central Florida, in January 2022, I took full advantage of living near the magic. Whether it’s Disney World, Universal Orlando, SeaWorld, or Busch Gardens, I’m usually there—filming, podcasting, livestreaming, or just soaking it all in (often with a spreadsheet tracking how many attractions I’ve done).
What I Do
🎢 Theme Park Vlogs – Real-world looks at theme park visits, events, new attractions, food, and behind-the-scenes tips.
🎙 Bimonthly Podcast – The Vacationeers Theme Parks & More Podcast delivers news, honest opinions, trip recaps, and theme park nostalgia.
📺 YouTube Livestreams – Once a week, usually Wednesday at 7 PM, I go live from parks, events, or the studio, interacting with viewers in real time.
📊 Data-Driven Insights – From annual pass value breakdowns to theme park planning strategies, I love mixing stats with storytelling.
🎄 Special Events Coverage – Holidays, grand openings, ride previews, and more—if it’s happening in the parks, I’m likely there.
