Great park.Awesome rides, Christmas decor was beautiful. Great food options. Friendly staff. They just need to work on the existing plans from the parking lot. That’s always a disaster. Other than that, great experience.

Busch Gardens Tampa Bay offers a fun experience with a variety of animals from different continents. The staff is excellent, and visitors can enjoy the Shakri, scorpion, and mini scorpion attractions. The park is filled with exciting rides and attractions, perfect for a day out. It is packed with high-speed, intense roller coasters, making it more suitable for older kids and adults. There is a small area for kids to hang out or play, but younger children under the height requirement are advised to go to a different park. The rides keep improving, with favorites like the iron Gwazi, Tigris, and Shakri. Visitors can also take the Serengeti tour, which is highly recommended. The park offers reasonably priced food, including Pizza in a bag, which costs $25 for a small personal pizza and comes with its own pizza cutter. There are gift shops to explore, and some dining options like Chick-fil-A, which may be closed on Sundays. Overall, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay is a great destination for a memorable day of adventure, with a mix of thrill rides, animal attractions, and entertainment suitable for various ages.
