Shawna JarmolychJune 19, 2013Best park in Florida. Disney is great for babies, but if you want rides, head to BG!
Glenda WalterAugust 12, 2012Bring dollars or quarters unless you aren't carrying anything in your hand. If you are this park requires you to put stuff in 50 cent lockers at each ride.
Sabah EdensDecember 25, 2014It's very nice hot weather down here , The city pass make it easy for family vacation .

Michael SampietroJanuary 4, 2016It's a very good park, but a lot of attractions were closed (I went on a Monday).
Keith ReevesMarch 23, 2012Cheetah Hunt is awesome. Fast, launch start, sprawling course, nice wait facilities... Great coaster.- Lester DominguezMay 27, 2012Get the food & park pass best combo I've ever seen in a theme park. You'll def get your moneys worth
Great coasters, great shows. Try the red velvet cheesecake at Sultan's Sweets. And they serve Starbucks coffee!
Ed CritchleyJuly 22, 2014Falcons fury - tallest drop tower in the world - still not open. Estimated end of August 2014.
Sandy JusticeMarch 29, 2013Roller coasters are great...Make sure to see the shows ... They are worth it!
Stephanie HawleySeptember 2, 2012If you visit Universal first, be prepared to be disappointed here! Very outdated and the animals look miserable in their very confined spaces. Also, you have to pay extra for the safari ride!
Melissa KasparJanuary 31, 2016My drink vs. my friends drink. Then had to speak to 2 coordinators about why mine was so small.
Beware Cheetah Hunt lines today! We're long time season pass holders and the lines are the longest I've seen.
Cheetah is a smooth roller coaster ride! I could line up to this again & again! 👍

Cirque Dreams is an amazing show. Check it out in the afternoon and rest your feet while you enjoy the show & air conditioning.

Bob RygwalskiJuly 20, 2012On busy days spend the extra on quick queue. You don't want to waste your day in hour long lines.
EricFebruary 3, 2012Sky Ride is a great way to get from one side of the park (near the exit) and the other.
