Busch Gardens Tampa Bay Theme Park

Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay is fun for the entire family. Whether you have children, teens, or grandparents it is sure to thrill everyone!

We live only about 45 minutes to Busch Gardens Tampa so I’m not saying it lightly when I say we’ve been there MANY times. There really is a lot to do.

They have some fantastic dining deals and delicious food! So check out their site before you visit. We especially love the freshly popped popcorn! Also, if you can make it out to the Food & Wine Festival that would be a plus.

Rides

If you’re a thrillseeker, Busch Gardens will not disappoint you. They have fantastic rides. Please pay attention to the warning signs in case you may not be able to ride. All of these rides are SO much fun!

NEW RIDE COMING SOON!

Animals

I love to watch the animals in their habitat and interact with each other. At Busch Gardens, you can see several species. My favorite part was taking the train and watching the large field with giraffes and zebras!

Standing on the glass to see an upcoming tiger rest below my feet! Yikes!

Shows

If you need a break from all the walking and want to be in air conditioning, this awesome theme park has a few shows. Our favorite, however, was the “Turn It Up” ice show. I was amazed at the talent, the choreography, and the music selection. If you can only see one show while you’re visiting Busch Gardens, make sure you see this one!
