    I'm very intrigued for what the park is planning. They seem to be gearing up for something

    Of course, of course it is still muted. Just cause there’s no plan for the sound to be fixed yet. So There is quite a bit of luck of course that. Oh well, I guess I’ll just deal with it and go back to Busch garden next month!

    Do you remember when there used to be a swing ride called the Swining Vines near the Bumper Cars? I saw it at Boardwlk and Baseball when they closed it and were auctioning off the remains of that park.

      It was in Jungala in the Tree Tops? I do remember a ride high up, well it was when I was a kid, and you sat in a seat that moved along a rail in the trees?

      @@BuschGardensJunkie No this was actually located near the bumper cars. where the boat things were and are now gone. Where you thought they might put those kids rides. It was also not far from the Python and the spider ride which I think was called the black mamba. Back before Jungala was even there. I think I have pictures of all of them somewhere. Also the old African Queen boat ride then Tanganiga Tidal wave now Tigris. And Sandstorm flat ride where Falcons Fury is now.

      Corp is trying to cut cost all over the place. Just recently they were going to stop tram services during the weekdays and that was met with some feedback from guests and employees. I don't see them hiring enough staff to man that station with all the other staffing issues.

    Im planning my trip to Busch Gardens a few days before Thanksgiving and i want to know why Serengeti Flyer is closed until Spring of 2025. This is just a year old ride.They already don't have to many rides as it is, then they wants to hav the nerve to close down te good ones.

    Just recently got back to Busch Gardens and I have to say I was very disappointed in the operations of the park. It has really fallen off…Iron Gwazi closed, Montu closed, Cobras Curse closed, Cheetah Hunt closed, Congo River Rapids closed, Serengeti Flyer closed, Jungala still closed. No shows that day. Gorillas exhibit closed. Orangutans off exhibit. It was not worth the price of admission. Probably the worst visit I’ve ever had in the 35+ years of visiting.

    • @BuschGardensJunkie
      @BuschGardensJunkie  28 днів тому +2

      Sorry to hear about your experience. That is not the norm for sure. I can explain some of the closures. They was some recent illness that took over the gorillas and we lost two of them, that is why that are being cared for in privacy. Congo and Flyer is closed for repairs. Not sure why all the other rides were closed unless it was due to lightning in the area and well this is Florida. If you have noticed the announcement, Jungala is getting refurbished into Wild Oasis, so it will be closed until Spring 2025. What day did you go?

      @@BuschGardensJunkieit was just a couple of days before Scorpion closed for good. They were having issues with Montu and Cheetah Hunt all day from what I was told….Cobras Curse was up briefly; then down a good chunk of the day. I never once saw Iron Gwazi run. I knew the Serengeti Flyer was down for maintenance…also heard about the gorilla deaths…so sad. But it just was not a great visit.

    • @BuschGardensJunkie
      @BuschGardensJunkie  27 днів тому +1

      That is very unusual for they to be all having issues like that. I think Iron Gwazi was down because of a structural issue, but for CH, CC, and Montu to all have issues at the same time is off.

      You really are not going to see the park operating in its full glory on a non-busy day. If you go on Monday or a Tuesday, a lot of stuff will be closed, even some dining venues. This is to save money due to the decreased attendance in the park for the day. In my opinion, theme parks are better with more people, that's why I go to theme parks anyway, more people = more excitement and more opportunities to meet others, it means the park can run 100% of its capacity and not compromise.
