I hope this is helpful for some. I’m trying to get through the hurricane right now but there’s a lot of damage.
Edit: A bonus tip is that the best hotel to stay at is probably the Embassy Suites USF Near Busch Gardens.
Thanks for the great tips. How are things in the area today? Hoping you survived the storm ok.
@@dragonfruit00 I survived but things won’t be the same for weeks.
@@ThemeParkAvenue have not seen much coverage of damage in the Tampa area. How is it looking there? Any news about BGT park damage or flooding?
I love Busch Gardens. It is my favorite theme park. Really great roller coasters. Just got my annual pass. LETS GO
Awesome!
This is a very accurate video. BGT is my home park and I utilize the same plan, down to getting food from the pretzel shop. The BIGGEST take away is the Iron Gwazi tip... if the ride is not test running by the time you enter the park, go straight to Cheetah Hunt. Also, if you are late, forgo the Iron Gwazi because it always has shorter lines midday once everyone is done flocking to ride it. (Plus it'll be warmed up by then for a better ride experience)
Thanks! I’m glad to get a second opinion from another with BGT as the home park.
You just got yourself a new sub
Thanks! I’m glad this video could be helpful for you.
I'll be going in about two months!
Nice tips! I actually went a couple weeks before Christmas Break and managed walk ons while still admiring all of their Christmas decorations early- I'm hoping to come back to ride Iron Gwazi
I'm from Orlando and will be going there with my family for the first time tomorrow. Thank you so much for the tips
Glad I could help!
I’m going last week of the year so hearing you say Winter isn’t as packed as spring or summer is great
Anytime wed go my dad would take off a Wednesday and keep me home xD good times.
Thanks again for all your videos and hard work have 2 question going to Busch gardens for the first time in first week in December for 2 days should I buy a fast pass and is it worth to pay the extra money for the safari tour
I think you should not buy the fast pass and the safari while nice probably shouldn’t be bought unless you are really into animals.
Hi! It's me, 'Cool Ghost.' I recently updated my username to 'avispón furioso,' which translates to 'furious hornet' in English. My new username is a spin on the coaster, Fury 325, with Hornet referencing to the fact that Fury is a hornet and Furious alluding to the FURY in Fury 325. I hope you don't get confused because I changed my profile picture and username. See you in the next video! Have a great day dude.
This is amazing
Great video!
I noticed that you didn’t feature the safari experience where you can feed giraffes from the truck, is this worth the extra cost in your opinion?
I did it as a young kid and if you can only get there once, it’s probably worth it if you have two or more days at the park.
yo i hope the animals are safe during hurricane ian
Unfortunately you released this video a week after I was last there. But that's okay because my day and a half there was still a fun time. I say a day and a half though because lighting put an early hault to our first day so when we found out our tickets were good food the whole weekend we were in town, we decided to come back two days later (because we spent the next day at Adventure Island waterpark across the street) and spend half the day there before the Green Bay Packers vs. Buccaneers football game in the evening.
I'm glad you had a good time there, though I'm sorry I wasn't able to help out.
Nice tips! Do they still have the bacon-wrapped pretzels at Twisted Tails? Those were amazing the last time I visited.
Thanks! Last I checked, they rarely offer them. They still have good pretzel options though.
How are the crowds between Christmas and New Years? Or on NYE and NYD?
Pretty light
Even on NYE and NYD? I had heard mixed reviews from kinda light to completely packed and crazy those days.
has falcons fury been open recently? ik its been sbno for a bit.
I think it’s still down but I didn’t j ow about that when I made the video.
If something happens to iron gwazi because of hurricane Ian I'm gonna be mad
Rode it for first time on Monday. Absolutely the best rollercoaster, no doubt: Would be a real shame if it got damaged.
things happen
I'm visiting next week on Wednesday. Should I purchase a quick queue pass? I am a platinum pass holder so it is only 20 dollars. Also, will Howl-O-Scream be crowded on Thursday of next week? I am also going to be there for my first haunt event. Thanks in advance.
You almost definitely won’t need Quick Queue. Wednesdays in the park have had pretty much only 5 minute lines.
Howl o Scream might be busier but I think you will still enjoy it.
I am visiting florida from Saturday March 30 to Friday April 5. Can you tell me the best day to go to Busch Gardens? I will have a 3 and 5 year old with me.
Monday through Thursday are absolutely the best days. With President’s Day Monday might be a bit worse.
Why Does My Home Park Have To Be Seaworld Orlando :(
I am visiting Busch gardens on a Monday in May, should I get Quick queue?
Probably not, I don’t think you should need it.
Heads up @ 8:30 you reused the “Tip #2” clip during Tip #8
For me it's not that bad me and my family have platinum passes so good parking and I'm only like 25 minutes away
That’s pretty cool.
Does anyone know how busy weekends in November are? I'm going here soon and want to know what to expect - kinda expecting long lines because it's the weekend.
They should be moderate to long, but doable in a day.
@@ThemeParkAvenue Thanks so much! So would it be realistic to expect 30-60 ish minute waits for most of the main rides? (coasters + Falcon's Fury)
@@greenrhinoguy I think so.
Is busch gardens tampa busy for Good Friday during Easter weekend?
I presume it will be pretty busy, but Good Friday would be better than Saturday and maybe Sunday.
Yes I’m hoping if we get an early start we can knock some long lines out before they develop 😂 Any tips or freebies for Platinum passholders you recommend? I’m going with my niece as my free April ticket so she is not a passholder
I'm going on March 1st. Should I be okay crowd-wise??
I think it should be moderate crowds, but you should be able to get on everything as long as it’s open.
@@ThemeParkAvenue thank you! I'll have quick queue, I'm just wondering how long it's going to be for Iron Gwazi and the Flyer. Sounds good 😊
@@goodoldfashionedangel Flyer is almost never bad, Iron Gwazi can be long so you might want to check the wait time throughout the day.
@@ThemeParkAvenue The plan is to hit Gwazi when the park opens and then hit the flyer whenever we're back there. I'm super excited! Thank you so much for the tips 💓
Hi, do you if the price of the tickets is the same in the self serving at the park and the website of Busch Gardens?
It should actually be the same.
It was for me in early October.
is it bad at the weekends im headed over end of may ?
I think it should be a bit busy but not awful.
How crowded is it the last week of may?
Midly crowded on weekends, not very crowded at all Monday-Thursday.
I hope you are okay!
how do they treat the animals?
Pretty well. It’s obviously not a full-size Serengeti but they work to rescue and save animals.
well i’m sure no one’s gonna be planning a trip to tampa right now with what’s going on😬
I am lol
@@zerogcoasters same
I was there on Monday luckily, quiet enough to get on everything. I was supposed to be flying home to UK tonight but won’t get out until Saturday now 😂
I didn’t realize that at the time, but yeah. This is really tough.
@@ThemeParkAvenue best of luck to you and everyone else living in florida though🤞
