Busch Gardens & Universal Studios: How long to complete each park?

[Tami and Bryan]

Busch and Universal Florida. Will one day per park do it?

If you are planning to do both Universal parks you will need 2 days. Busch Gardens will only need 1 day. If you are going during a busy time of year then I recommend purchasing the Universal Express Pass to maximize your time. Hope this helps.

If you only have two days I'd definitely skip BG. They've got great coasters but the park is less than spectacular and, on my trip there two Summers ago, quite dirty. Two days at the Universal/IOA parks would give you time to do everything at least once and would be cheaper than doing BG and Universal separately. Just my two cents.

We did Busch Gardens and loved it. We did two days there.

BG 2 days
IOA just under a day
USO a full day
This assumes you'll ride most of the rides and see most of the shows.Busy seasons require planning and a little rushing around.

BGs Katonga is one of the best shows in all the parks,for coasters it is also tops.Nothing compares to the admittedly short but adrenalin rush filled Sheikra.

Food in BG is weak mostly fast food.IOA has Mythos and USO has Lombard's

You can do BG in one day if you're willing to bypass a couple of the shows. I don't recommend it tho as the shows rival those at Disney. If it helps, BG offers a Front of the Line Pass for $9.99 per person- It works like fast pass or express pass but only for use on the coasters.

I'd still do USO/IoA in 2 days if you'd like to experience all that it has to offer.

My Dh and I were able to do all the coasters at BG's in a day (some of them twice) all before 2pm, as well as a few other attractions.

We enjoyed it a lot.
