Ive been to Busch Gardens Tampa many times over the years. I wanted to put a guide together to help with your next trip. In this guide I will cover tickets and yearly passes, the formula I use for getting on the rides as fast as possible, best places to eat and more including a few hidden tips. Use this video as a helpful guide on your next trip but just remember things are changing all the time in this industry. Rides go down and crowds change day by day. No way is the perfect way. This is just the way I like to visit the park when I go. The park also offers a pass for addition cost to skip the line and also all day dining plans to help with your visit. Thanks so much for watching and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Great advice; also worth noting there's a shuttle service from Orlando to the park that picks up and drops off at a few different locations in Orlando, this will eliminate the cost of parking. I'll likely do this when i visit the park later this year.

Love these ultimate guides! Great quality and great tips. Can’t wait for the next park

@Fryinpansvols Год назад

Great video with great tips! Thanks for putting this together, I know it was a lot of work to put that together. I’ve been to Busch Gardens Tampa 4 times (once as a kid in the 80’s, on my honeymoon with the wife in 2008, and the other two times in 2018). I know it’s constantly getting new rides and exhibits. I’m so excited to take my kids and nephew next month on Fall Break. We are coaster enthusiasts and are looking forward to Iron Gwazi. We have the all day dining pass, so we’ll be eating good. Thanks again! 🎢

Great to see what others think about maximizing their day at my home park. My best advice is to eat at Twisted Tails Pretzels. Zambia Smokehouse is fabulous, but no theme park food, not even cinnamon bread, can beat those pretzels.

@Okaycoasters Год назад

I have tried Twisted Tails Pretzels and it was amazing!

@derikroy5 Год назад

Twisted Tails pretzels is SO good. The turkey legs right as you come in the gate (I forget the name) are amazing too! I love the diversity of Tampa Busch Gardens better than anything in Orlando imo. It's more cultural and therefore more inclusive and more fun. It's not ALL tourists, it's locals, and I can appreciate that 🙂

I like to highlight the specific African regions. I hit all the coasters in North Africa (Egypt and morocco) and see the cheetah run then I go explore Edge of Africa and Nairobi. Then I'll take the train or skyride across the plain to the Congo. These summer shows are not to be missed tho!!! INCREDIBLE VIDEO MAN!!

@rob46711 2 года назад

I was just at the park two weeks ago. Was able to get a great Airbnb right near the park. Was able to walk to it so didn't have to pay for parking. Got there early enough to be one of the first in the park when it opened. Headed straight for Iron Gwazi since that was my main reason for visiting. Got rewarded with being on the second train to leave the station. I agree with the poll on places to eat, I had lunch at Zambia Smokehouse and it was excellent. I very highly recommend eating there on your next visit.

Just got home from 6 flags great adventure today. This had to be my best experience at any park since it was completed empty. I got to ride nitro 20 times and 10 times consecutively without having to get off. I also got to ride each of the other coasters multiple times including the more family friendly ones. I know this doesn’t apply to the video at all, I just wanted to share. Also I’m going to bush gardens Tampa this summer so I can’t wait!

I visited here once in summer 2021. Word of advice. Make sure that no severe rain is in the forceast when you go. I got to the park at about 11 AM and couldn't ride anything until 6 PM because of heavy rain and lightning warnings. But, after the rain stopped and the rides started, most of the park had emptied and I got to ride every coaster that was open multiple times with my "skip the line pass." I also had a dining pass, so I was eating all day. There was a barbeque restaurant that I found in the cut near Tigris (I believe). Those ribs were killer!

Great job on this guide. I think the Skyride is done as I can't remember the last time I saw it running. I've had a platinum pass for years now and more than pays off with the parking and merch discount.

@MakBot 2 года назад

When I was there 2 weeks ago, the only ride listed as down for the day on the sign at the front of the park was Falcon's Fury and the Skyride wasn't running. Not a good sign.

@suncoasterstv6512 2 года назад

@@MakBot I think Busch Gardens will reopen The Phoenix before the Skyride reopens. 🤣

@roamdhong 2 года назад

Skyride should be open by the end of this summer, at least that's what all my supervisors tell me. They said they are waiting on a part that regular Ski lifts also need and ski lift resorts get priority I guess, something like that... so I've been told.

@randomuser1397 Год назад

@@roamdhong I've been to Busch Gardens 4 different times recently and the Skyride was closed each time...

@roamdhong Год назад

@@randomuser1397 Ok so I worked at Cheetah Hunt while my home ride was down for annual maintenance and a veteran at CH said Skyride has been down since COVID started (3 years about) and he thinks it's unlikely it will open at all in 2023. He said there's a lot that needs to be done with it and it's just not a priority rn, shame.

@TBCORY 2 года назад

Another tip is to make time for some of those shows BG offer to get out of the heat, They have a beautiful ice skating show located by cheetah hunt or a wild circus electric show located by Tigris.

@gabriellevalentino7319 2 года назад

You could probably drive down to and back up depending on what you're wanting to do.. Most the hotels in the Tampa area aren't the best. I live in Tampa and I've done day trips to Orlando. But if you are wanting to do more than one thing (the aquarium and zoo here as well as downtown area waterworks are worth visiting,) I would just find a decent area to get the hotel

There is never a wait on Montu or Kumba. And Shiekra line is not usually longer than 20 mins. Take a right and ride Cheetah hunt first then take a loop all the way around the park counter clock wise finishing with Iron Gwazi. Then just ride that as much as you want. Best place to eat is Chic Fila.

Oasis now has pasta and meatball subs... Tree Top doesn't exist, it's a pass member lounge now. Twisted has dogs, pizza, and more now as well. Congo Station hasn't been open for years... except for a brief month once last year.

Ladies....when visiting this park please take it from me....wear a tank top (no sleeves) and sneakers. Leave the flip flops home. Put your hair in a pony tail and pack an extra tank. You may want to wear something dry after you ride the water rides....you will get soaked. Have fun and be safe.
