A Different PerspectiveMore Photos
Busch Gardens is an animal park that I really enjoyed. One main reason for this is the multiple vantage points for viewing the animals.

A monorail and cable cars ride above the park, while a train rides around the park all at a pace that allows you to photograph the animals.

With an African theme, and many different animal exhibits, there is much to see. There are thrill rides, restaurants, water rides, and of course the Clydesdales. There is something for everyone. If you are looking for an animal park you have come to the right place. The animal exhibits allow you to feel up close without infringing on the animals' space. Like other Busch Gardens Parks there are interactive experiences to be had for an additional fee. The price for a general admission ticket is a little high, over $40 for children as well as adults. The thing I like least about this park is the location. Now mind you it has been a couple of years since I have been there but it was in an area of town that I would not have chosen as my vacation lodging. We did stay overnight in a hotel nearby, but were not completely comfortable with the surrounding neighborhood. I know they have not moved the park, but maybe the surrounding area has improved.
