Avoid weekends and events. My first time here was during Howl-O-Scream 2010. The experience was absolutely awful. I went with a few Friends on a weeknight thinking the crowds would be a lot smaller since it was a school night. I'm not sure what all these kids were doing there, but it ruined the night for my group. I won't blame the kids so much because their behavior really has nothing to do with the park, but there should have been some sort or regulation going on. A little disturbing to see a bunch of 13 year olds dancing like strippers to the latest little pop tunes. Fighting your way through that mess is even worse.

I have a season pass and go weekday mornings when I can get the chance. It's a whole other world there at that time. The only kids running around are ones that don't speak a word of English. There are zero lines for all of the rides. The only downside to the experience are the tourists. I don't know if they just don't understand the concept of a wide walkway with people behind you or coming towards you that you're supposed to move to one side, not the whole damn walkway.

Many of the ride employees make it far too obvious that they hate their job.

The rides are fun. Gwazi will tear you apart... and not i a fun way. The ride is rough. The Scorpion sucks. Shiekra is evil. That straight down drop took me 3-4 times to get to the point where I was willing to get back on.

The food, as any other tourist trap is, is stupid expensive. If you're going to eat, do it before or after you raid this park.

AWFUL!. i went here for vacation and i couldnt be more disappointed.. there were many fat women running around in small bathing suits and my kids were with me! that is unacceptable! the roller coasters were fun but all of the workers made my experience worse..everyone was in a bad mood and told my kids to shut up! that is also unacceptable.

A Great Park. Just want to point a few minor mistake. a) Gwazi Wooden Coaster is actually not that old. Only 9yrs old. and B) 4 coaster serve as the big anchors for the park All I have to say is Busch Gardens Tampa is one of the best park around. Not so many rides like other amusement parks, but it has variant animals and vegetation. I always visit Busch Gardens each year. This year they have a new area called Jungala and it is an amazing beautiful area filled with nice vegetation, animals and rides for the younger ones. And its close to the 2 bigger coaster SheiKra and Kumba. Def a must visit
