VLOG: ‘Tigris’ Opens at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay!

Share

This week, thanks to Busch Gardens, we were able to experience Tigris, their newest roller coaster, as part of a VIP event. The coaster is Florida’s tallest launch coaster and what will become an instant classic for Busch Gardens visitors. “Tigris will catapult riders through an exhilarating array of looping twists with forward and backward motion, breath-taking drops, a 150-foot skyward surge, and an inverted heartline roll, all at more than 60 miles per hour.”

The ride is located towards the back of the park, right next to SheiKra. During the VIP event, both Tigris and SheiKra were open, allowing guests to ride them as much as they’d like. Tigris, was absolutely thrilling, and such an amazing addition to their lineup of coasters, making Busch Gardens the best place for roller coasters in Florida.

During the party, there was a band playing music, dancers, and food and beverage stations lined up. The food included brisket, an array of macaroni and cheese, pork sliders, beer chips, ice cream, brownies, and more. The food was incredible, as well.

Overall, the event was great and it was great for us to get an up-close look at Tigris, and celebrate Busch Gardens. We made a vlog from the experience, and you can see that below!
