Not to Miss Attractions
- Tigris™, Florida’s tallest launch coaster inspired by the powerful yet agile tiger with an exhilarating triple launch, and a 150-foot skyward surge. Catapult through twists, daring drops, a 150-foot skyward surge, and a thrilling inverted heartline roll!
- Busch Gardens puts a new spin on family thrills with Cobra's Curse®! This one-of-a-kind family spin coaster takes riders on a whirlwind of family fun and adventure as they explore a mysterious Egyptian archaeological excavation. After ascending on a vertical lift, just like an elevator, riders will come face-to-face with an 80-foot snake icon and trek over the park’s Serengeti Plain.
- In simple terms, Iron Gwazi is a monster, the tallest hybrid coaster in North America, and the fastest and steepest in the world. Towering to a full height of 206ft, Iron Gwazi plunges riders into a 91-degree drop, reaching a top speed of 76mph – faster than any other ride in Florida – with 12 air-time features and three full inversions!
- Experience the breathtaking thrill of Serengeti Flyer - NOW OPEN! - the world’s tallest and fastest ride of its kind. With each swing, soar higher and higher above Busch Gardens Tampa Bay’s expansive 65-acre Serengeti Plain while experiencing multiple negative-G moments before plunging back toward the Earth.
Thrill Rides
- Experience new heights with Falcon’s Fury™, the tallest freestanding drop tower in North America. After climbing high above the park, pivot in mid-air to a face-down dive position. An instant later you’ll plunge 60 mph straight down at 3.5 Gs with speed and power like you’ve never experienced before!
- Head to the ancient realm of Cheetah Run and experience the unmatched speed and agility of the world's fastest land animal aboard the electrifying Cheetah Hunt roller coaster. This thrilling launch coaster climbs high above the African landscape and shoots through the Serengeti plains, imitating the movement and spirit of a hunting cheetah.
- Feeling brave? SheiKra® takes you 200 feet up, then hurtles you 90 degrees straight down at speeds of up to 70 mph!
- Then there is Montu®, one of the tallest and longest inverted coasters in the world, featuring loops, drops and speeds over 60 mph, all with your feet dangling freely below you, only at Busch Gardens.
Family Fun
- For up-close animal encounters head to Jungala® where you will find some of the world’s most endangered animals, Bengal tigers and orang-utans, along with two signature rides, including Jungle Flyers and Tree Top Trails.
- Try Edge of Africa® which offers the most intense safari experience outside Africa. While trekking through a remote safari encampment, you’ll discover lions, hippos, hyenas, meerkats, lemurs and giraffes.
- Serengeti Safari - Embark on an African adventure on an open truck tour through the 65-acre Serengeti Plain (additional fees apply)

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. USED THE FREE BUSCH GARDENS EXPRESS, BEST GET IT FROM ICON PARK (IF YOU'RE STAYING NEAR) THEN YOU DON'T GET TO PICK UP FROM LOTS OF OTHER HOTELS. WENT IN EARLY NOVEMBER SO NO QUEUES FOR THE RIDES AND AS WE WERE THERE FOR ABOUT 9 HOURS EACH TIME WE REALLY GOT THE BEST USE FROM THE ALL DAY DINING.

I’ve used Attraction Tickets 3 or 4 times now. Always easy, reliable and as described. Bush Gardens was not as busy as some of the others, but that’s a plus for us. The dine all day is good value for money.
