Busch Gardens

[mike&amy1508]

Tell me about BG! We're trying to decide if we want to add it into our trip.

What about transportation there? I hear there is free transportation from wdw, but don't know where or how long it takes. Does anyone know how much it would cost to use a Mears shuttle?

Thanks!

Our family loves BG.

I loved the show Katonga and the ride Rhino Rally.

My daughter the water rides.

My guys all loved the coasters.

My sil loved everything.

My bil, sil, and husband the free beer.

My dn loved the animals.

My dn the shopping.

My mom the prices she treated some with tickets and they were very reasonable.

Our age range was from 4-66

We utilized the shuttle this past February; the trip takes about an hour. We got there at 10:30 and left at 5 pm - plenty of time as the crowds were super low!

We bought our tickets online, and got the package where we got tickets for SeaWorld and Busch Gardens, so the shuttle was free. We took a taxi from AKL to the SeaWorld parking lot for the shuttle, but could have saved a little cab fare had we gone to the shuttle pickup at the Premium Outlets.

We also did the Serengeti Safari tour where we got to feed the giraffes. It costs extra, but it totally worth it!!

there is no transportation from WDW to BG.

it's a great park, but you'll need to rent a car or find a way off WDW property to the BG shuttle.

I would love to know to... we are thinking of going there for a day before our WDW stay.

I believe that SeaWorld still has a shuttle to Busch Gardens. Last time I checked, the cost was very reasonable (around $10 per person). I remember reading about it on SeaWorld's website.

The Busch Gardens Shutle Express is $10 pp rt and appears to have 4 departure times (I'm looking at the brochure). It is 0830 from Universal, 0900 from Seaworld, 0915 from Seaworld and 0930 from amerihost resort maingate. I highly doubt there is any free transportation except if you buy the 5 day Orlando flex ticket your transportation is free on this shuttle. The phone number for this is 1-800-221-1339. I hope this helps, I just happened to be looking at the brochure this morning. Busch Gardens is a beautiful park but I would definitely suggest doing a day trip from Orlando as the Busch area isn't the greatest for staying. I hope I helped....
