Had so much fun riding the roller coasters for the day with my daughter. We purchase the quick que passes and even though the lines were not ridiculously long, we loved going right to the front. The exhibits were great. The only issue are the food choices .. There are no sit down restaurants and the choices you do have are mostly fried foods, or pizza. It’s a fun park and we will be back.

I was apprehensive about visiting Busch Gardens, Tampa as I had read a lot of bad reviews. It was amazing, so much so we visited twice during our stay in Orlando. A great park with some fantastic rides, Iron Gwazi and a Tigris, what brilliant rides. The food was great too and we opted for a re-fillable cup, well worth it. The animals were a nice break from all the thrills. 10/10.

We went in May, nice time even though it rained a bit. We loved the ice skating show, it's great, very professional!! The shows at Busch Gardens are always top-notch, great quality! Nice walking around and seeing the flowers and animals too, park is well-decorated and the animals are a highlight. Disappointed with the food choices last year and this year.........too much meat, not enough vegetarian options. The food selection has been pretty limited since the pandemic started- wraps, many desserts, and various choices besides just meat dishes are now gone. Need to expand the food selection again and also open the sky ride.........it's been closed for a long time! All-in-all good day though, love visiting, good value for the money compared to Disney. We prefer Busch Gardens to Disney at this point- less crowded, cheaper, closer to get to, much easier to plan for!

Thank you for sharing! We're thrilled you were able to enjoy Turn It Up and witness some of our over 200 species in their habitats! We're so sorry to see you have not a great experience with our culinary outlets and apologize you found limited vegetarian options. We have forwarded this on to our culinary leadership team for their continued improvement. We hope to see you back soon! -LJ
