Jokes aside, Oscar’s Wacky Taxi is so good. There’s something about family woodies in PA, Oscar’s, Flying Turns, and Rollo Coaster are all just so much fun
Both parks are fantastic and really are just complements of each other. BGW and Kings Dominion are my home parks, but every winter we go down to see BGT and SWO.
Well, I’d have to go with the conventional wisdom - SWO above SWSA, and BGT above BGW - but I enjoyed your list. Right now I’m still angry with the BGs, though, for sitting on completed coasters right through my summer trip. It’ll take a long time before the feeling of being insulted completely fades. Still excited about Iron Gwazi, though.
I scheduled a December trip to Orlando and also had a summer trip to Southern California that also got postponed to December. Surely, I thought, the SEAS parks would have their new, fully operational coasters opened and running for December. Obviously that didn't happen, and being taunted by Emperor, Ice Breaker, and Iron Gwazi all within a 20 day period really ground my gears. That said, getting on Velocicoaster made up for it.
I think SWSA is only higher because it released it new coaster while SWO we are still waiting for it's release next year and that wooden coaster as been getting great reviews
@@toptiercomments840 That really sucks, Busch Gardens had a lot of their major rides closed this month, I was planning to go there around the same time but so how many of their rides were closed and instead just focused on Universal
BGW is the only SeaWorld park I’ve been to and is far and away my favorite theme park. The ride collection is amazing, but the theming and atmosphere are breathtaking. There’s really nothing I can say that compares to it in America. And as soon as Pantheon is open, I’m taking a trip down there.
Honestly to me BGW & BGT are both the exact same ranking. I absolutely love their Grover coasters, the airtime on them truely is insane. When your an enthusiast like myself you really love Grovers alpine express and whatever the other ones called. I hate that both parks are installing big kid rides like pantheon and iron gwazi because we all know that all they need for success is another Grovers alpine express right next to the original. When I see rides like Griffon, Cheetah hunt, and montu i just want to 😤😤😤 thinking about how much of a missed opportunity it was to not put grovers alpine express in their plot of land. I believe both parks should begin removing old, garbage rides, such as Verbolten, Cobras Curse, Pantheon, Iron Gwazi, and Montu, and replace them with new, state of the art rides such as Grovers Alpine Express. Grovers Alpine Express typically has one of the shortest queues in the park, meaning i can ride grover more, i love riding grover, and i mean that in more ways that 1. it is honestly a shocker to me more parks dont install grovers alpine express, look at some old, trash coasters like X2, I305, wick twist dangle coaster, and Steal Vengeance, dont you guys think those could all use being replaced with Grovers alpine express? I think every park in the world could be just as good as BGT and BGW if they only had grovers alpine express.
Sea World San Antonio was my home park for 4 years (living just 4.5 miles from the park) so I frequented it a LOT back in 2000 to 2004. Steel Eel was my childhood coaster alongside Titan in 2001. It's the only park in the chain I've been to so I'm SUPER happy she's #3 for you! :D
Honestly all the SeaWorld and Busch Gardens are great and well worth the visits with Busch Gardens parks being the best only because of the focus of theming that you don't really get at the level with SeaWorld
I agree Busch Gardens Williamsburg is the best. Best coaster collection in the chain, best food in the chain, and best theming/atmosphere in the chain.
Great video! I've actually been to a SeaWorld park before, SeaWorld of Ohio in the 90's but wasn't that old and don't remember much of it. They didn't have any roller coasters at all by the way. I don't remember seeing anything like a coaster even there. I loved the atmosphere of SeaWorld.
2:24 Vapor Trail gave all the adults in my life headaches. When I later worked at the park as an adult, I found it had the same problem! Taxi supremacy always
I live in La Jolla / Malibu and I’m a platinum pass holder for sea world and sesame place SD but I been fortunate enough to be at all this parks and I can definitely say they are all different but a good experience
I remember when oscars waxy taxi didn’t even exist and when I heard about it being built I was super excited to ride it the second it opened i was trying to go this summer but I didn’t get a chance so unfortunately I don’t remember oscars waxy taxi at all
SeaWorld Entertainment is my favorite amusement park chain and my favorite of the five main parks (not including either Sesame Place locations) is Busch Gardens Tampa followed by Busch Gardens Williamsburg, SeaWorld Orlando, SeaWorld San Diego and SeaWorld San Antonio. As for the waterparks, my favorite is Aquatica Orlando followed by Aquatica San Diego, Aquatica San Antonio, Water Country USA and Adventure Island.
I’m glad that you like Busch Gardens Williamsburg as your favorite sea world park. Busch Gardens Williamsburg is only less than a Quick straight shot 2 1/2 hour drive down 95 to 64 from and where I live and even with its horrible reputation Regarding the amount of crime and horrible operations it currently has right now since the park reopened last August from COVID-19 it’s still a really good park and I always enjoy visiting that place so much and it’s my favorite park in my state and with Pantheon opening in March that Park will end up being in my top 5. Despite that Iron Gwazi Will be my most anticipated coaster of all time and that’s the other Busch Gardens in Tampa I still honestly think that Williamsburg will be the better park then Tampa.
@@aaronrumph3291 Unfortunately around Halloween there was a lack of security guards and multiple fights happened every weekend and sometimes they were being sexual assaults and kidnapping as well but now the park has put a strict code of conduct and they’re much more security guards now than they were before and they’re now really strict so you really would see that now but it was earlier this year.
I only live a mile from SWSA and two of my kids have worked there. I like the size of the park and the wide avenues through the park. Six Flags always seems so claustrophobic, crowded, and dirty. I don’t like going during the summer because it is too hot, but the themed events during the Fall, Winter, and Spring are great. I’m sure many of the other parks may have more rides, etc, but San Antonio is less crowded, easy to navigate, and wait lines are normally not very long. And my daughter who lives in Florida and goes to that SeaWorld all the time, said SWSA has a better and bigger Children’s section and water play area for the kids.
SeaWorld Orlando isn't very crowded either all their rides were walk ons when I went. the crowded parks are usually SF, CF, Universal, and Disney parks followed by BG. SeaWorld is still treated as an indie park where it does get crowded but it is usually for the shows over the rides
I'm sorry, but I literally grew up at SeaWorld Orlando and I have also been to Busch gardens Tampa and SeaWorld San Diego and Seaworld Orlando is the best park they own, it has a great line-up spectacular shows, great theming, an amazing fireworks show, and it feels like a proper theme park. it literally makes no sense that San Antonio is above San Diego and Orlando. San Antonio looks depressing
I’m depressed to have BGW as my home park. It’s really gone to crap this year. It’s always crowded, operations are horrible and the staff treats you like garbage.
I recently visited the park for Christmas town on December 4 and the staff was still very friendly not as friendly as they used to be but they’re on the level of Kings Dominion now but they’re not rude at all and they’re nowhere near as horrible at Six Flags. Yes the operations are slower than it used to be but there’s still like I said nowhere near as bad as intimidator 305’s operations or kings dominion in general and they’re still pretty quick. The biggest problem I currently have with the park this year is the amount of crime and lack of security as well as the food not being that impressive or good like it used to be and most importantly the amount of time it takes to park your car and walk in the front gate if you don’t show up at park opening. But Trust me by the time pantheon opens I’m pretty sure that park is going to get back to normal. And during my visit to Christmas town I still felt that immersive magic, Apollo and InvadR were running at the best it ever has been and years and they were running a trimless and the shows are still top notch. If you can handle waking up early and getting to the parking toll plaza in our before park opening then your day will be very good at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. And never ever trust the app because they’re not even showing wait times on the app anymore even with the new updated one. The park is still pretty as ever and I will always be pretty. I would still travel to Busch Gardens Williamsburg as long as it doesn’t become a full six flags park. That’s all.
I think comes down to individual experience. A guy who gave us our member ornaments was rude and disrespectful to me, but later that day some kid knocked my daughter's peanut butter hot chocolate out of her hand accidentally and a staff member gave her a free refill when she saw what happened. It's all in the paint you brush a park with. Ops were definitely better before Howl-O-Scream started, but that could be due to seasonal hiring help. I also agree the park seems to be back to pre-covid crowd level, with covid Era staffing.
The top 2 are real close for me. I think BGT has the better top end coasters, but BGW has the better park feel slightly. I think once Iron Gwazi gets added I ill slightly prefer BGT, but Pantheon has the potential to be really great as well. SWO is the clear 3rd choice. SWSA is in 4th. I think both SA and Orlando have a lot of potential to grow. SWSD is clearly 5th and lagging behind.
I’m sorry, how is swsd lagging? Here is my list: 1. BGT 2. BGW 3. SWO 4. SWSD 5. SWSA 6. SPSD 7. SPP I really don’t think swsd is falling behind, but (honesty) swsa is doing good, but has less thrilling rides than the other 2 SW.
@@seaworldsandiegoupdatesrob3844 it really isn’t close. Steel Eel, Texas StingRay, and Great White at San Antonio are all better than anything at San Diego.
When did Alpengeist become part of Germany? It used to be part of the Switzerland part of the park.... guess BGW got rid of Switzerland and made it part of Germany.... I have to agree with your rankings, though I might put SWO above SWSA. I wish SWSD got a little more love, had a few more flat rides, thrill rides, family & thrill coasters. There is still plenty that can be done within their 150 foot height limitation. I also think that BGT needs a few more flat rides and a bit more shade (as it gets way too hot), and BGW should put a next-gen (custom) Vekoma Family Suspended coaster over the pond between Ireland & England (& put in the next-gen enterprise style flat ride in that same area).
I've personally only been to SeaWorld San Diego and Busch Gardens Williamsburg. If I had to say which one was better I would for sure say Busch Gardens Williamsburg. I've always wanted to visit SeaWorld San Antonia and Busch Gardens Tampa though.
@@CoasterDash I get it! Sea World puts on a really good Christmas scene and atmosphere, but the overall consensus here is the Sea World Orlando's Christmas setup and event is best in Orlando. With as spaced out Every thing is at SWSA, their rides, etc don't match SWO. It's not even close actually. But I respect your opinion and still watch your videos😛😎
Love you but gotta hate the list, bg Williamsburg is just quality over quantity crap. Also what the hell with sea world San Antoniou you are a roller coaster RU-vidr not a homey feel RU-vidr
