Busch Gardens ... need help!

[casper_jj11]

I'm having a lot of trouble finding what I'm looking for on the BG site. It states they have a baby pass system... does anyone know what rides its available on? Same question for Quick Queue... is this like FastPass except you pay for it and if so, for what rides can it be used? Their site says bumper cars are 42in min with adult... huh? Do they mean 42in OR with an adult? I'd like to take the kids on it when dh rides a coaster? Also, DD meets the 39in requirement for Rhino Rally but is only 2.5. The site says they have to be 3 yrs min.... how sticky are they with this? Finally, they seem to have two table service restaurants but it doesnt say anywhere if or how you can make reservations for them.... do you just take your chances? (Im' thinking of Crown Colony House)

If anyone has any experience with any of these things, I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks!

we were to the one in VA and they have a setup as soon as you go in where they will measure you and give you a wrist band and slip which says what rides you can go on. not sure on the fastpass type thing. Also dining we ate at festhaus, counterservice you take to a table then sit and watch a show.

We also were to the one in Tampa, not sure if they have the wrist band setup there. We also ate at some 60s music place where it is counter service you take and sit down and watch a show.

you can also email them throught the contact us link and ask if they do the baby swap /fastpass type deal.

Have fun, it is a nice park

Busch Gardens does have child swap, pending of course there is someone to hold the child at the time.. just ask the team member at the entrance / height stick how that attraction does it since many attractions operate a little different.

They are strict on height limits, I don't remember bumper cars height limit right now.


Rhino rally does tend to try to get the truth... but you can try to get around it if possible, just be careful.

Quick Queue is their brand new (brought back from the dead and now premium) service to get ahead in the lines for the popular attractions, Their is a different entrance usually exit but some have it up front too. You can buy it at any ticket window, guest services window, or even the tour desk in morocco, they do sell out on some days though.

We were there at the end of April. We walked into Crown Colony House around 11:00 when they open and had no problem getting seated, on the balcony no less, right away. Service and food were excellent and we didn't think it was too pricey at all.

If you have AAA membership, use it there to get a 10% discount off your bill.
