The Busch Garden was okay even though there was a lot of rain that flooded the area for a short time. The Florida Aquarium was a lot smaller than what I expected so was the Lowry Zoo. The Clearwater aquarium was a disappointment for me, there was very little exhibit.
We loved the Tampa Bay City Pass. It was well worth it. My advice would be: Busch Gardens and Lowery Park Zoo are worth a full day. The aquariums and MOSI are a half day at most. If you have to skip one make it the Clearwater Aquarium. When the Zoo says they may close for inclement weather they mean it - and 55 degrees and cloudy is inclement. We had to come back to the zoo the next day, which was the last day the passes were valid, but we really enjoyed it. If you are not familiar with Tampa, keep in mind that it is a big city with all the traffic headaches and driving challenges that go with it. We actually tried an Uber for the first time!
A great value! We visited 4 of the 5 venues. Bush Gardens was fun! The Chihuly Collection truly amazing. The glass blowing demonstration was wonderful to watch.
