Busch Gardens, Tampa Bay Vlog (November 2023)

In this video I return to Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay, Florida to experience their newest ride Serengeti Flyer. I also get back on some of my favourite rides in the world including Iron Gwazi and Montu featuring on ride POV's.
I also take a quick look at the newest area of construction in the park over at Pantopia where we will see a new B&M family coaster opening in 2024, Phoenix Rising.

28:12 The B&M Dive Coasters with the splash downs do look awsome and the floorless ones look amazing!

Great vlog! This is my other homepark (Sea world Orlando being my main park), so glad you enjoyed your visit. Iron Gwazi is my #1. While I haven't been to Europe to ride the amazing rides over there, I have been to most parks in the USA and been on the best this country has to offer, including Steel Vengeance. The food, while expensive, has usually been good when I go, so that is probably a day specific thing, especially if it's a slow day. It was savage to say you won't put the clip of the guy falling, but there it was! 😂....sorry you don't like Cheetah hunt as much. I like it quite a bit. It usually averages to around my 4th favorite at the park. I don't know if it helps or not, but you need to remember Cheetah hunt is and always has been advertised as a family thrill coaster. It's not supposed to be too crazy and a good ride for people of all ages. If you go in understanding that, it's a top notch family coaster. Alot of people go in expecting a Maverick experience from Cedar Point and come off disappointed. Overall, glad you enjoyed your visit and it's still one of my overall favorite parks I've ever been too!

Thanks so much for watching Maddogg - you’re incredibly lucky to live out there and be so close to some incredible parks, very jealous! Yeah I’ve never had a bad experience with the food at Busch Gardens before so I’m assuming it was just a quiet day, and I did eat late so maybe they weren’t expecting anybody, although obviously that’s no excuse. Iron Gwazi is an absolute beast. It’s an incredible ride and I imagine one that will sit in at least my top 3 for a long, long time. With Cheetah Hunt I’ve always just found it to be ‘ok’, not a bad ride by any means but if I was ranking all the coasters in the park, I think it would be down the bottom. But then that’s probably due to all the other coasters being so epic! Here’s to Phoenix Rising next year 😊😊

22:06 RMC's do look great and i would love to ride one of these coasters in the future but as for which one between Iron Gwazi at Bush Gardens, Zardra at Engergylandia or Untamed at Walabi Holland, i dont really mind and would be happy with either if these RMC coaster for my first ever time!

[@jakeclarke3617]

8:22 B&M are my favoutiyr coaster manufacturer and their B&M Inverts are my favourite coaster type/model, they are just great! I have only done the original Nemesis and Nemesis Reborn at Alton Towers at wrlk as Nemesis Inferno at Thorpe Park and i really hope to experience Black Mamba at Phantasiland in Germany in thr future as well as many more throught the world, amazing coaster and when you hit that break run, wow, their is no other feeling like it on any other coaster model!

[@_adventureplanet]

If you love your B&M inverts then Montu, in my opinion, is the best out there. If you want something a little closer to home though, Oziris at Parc Asterix runs a close second..

[@jakeclarke3617]

​@@_adventureplanet Thankyou, will definatley make it my target to get out their and ride both of these B&M Inverts in the future, i really like the look of Black Mamba at Phantasiland too!

[@Attractions_Family]

Definitely watched the bloke fall over 3 times 😂

[@_adventureplanet]

Where in the video is that? I definitely didn’t include it… 😅

[@Attractions_Family]

@@_adventureplanet would have been criminal not to 🤣

[@Casper-dl2ru]

Haha, at 40:40 “I’m not gonna include it on KZbin for everybody to see” 😂

[@Attractions_Family]

@@Casper-dl2ru cheeky little rewatch 🤣

[@jakeclarke3617]

34:40 Why do they call them comfort colours if they are the complete oppsite haha 😂

[@_adventureplanet]

They are the worst invention for a coaster ever!! 😄

Decent vlogging, AP. Roughly how much £££ do you have to put aside for a trip like this once you include flights, hotel, all the park tickets etc?

[@_adventureplanet]

Thanks Jak! For this particular trip I believe it was around £1600 for the flights and hotel. Car rental for 2 weeks is currently around £300-£350. A combo ticket for all the parks is roughly £1000. Then of course you have food, drink and parking costs, all of which isnt cheap. It’s sadly an expensive holiday these days, especially for big families.

@@_adventureplanet good info, thanks. Probably gonna have to sell some old wicker man merch to fund mine!!
