Cypress Gardens

[HarriFfi]

Has anybody visited Cypress Gardens since it reopened? If so what did you think?

We're looking for somewhere "new" to visit for 1 day in our forthcoming hol - other than Disney, Universal, IOA, Seaworld, Busch Gardens and gatorland. Any suggestions?

Yes, we've been to CG twice this year and it is rapidly becoming a fun and worthwhile day out. The rides are nothing special, but there are plenty of them, few queues and great for children 3-14. There is a LOT to do there now, with the shows, nature area and gardens, and the only drawback is there are a lot of roadworks on US 27 on the way there which make the journey at least 45 minutes from the kissimmee area.
