Sesame Street Safari of Fun Kids play area at Busch Gardens Theme Park in Tampa provides young kids with more to do than any kids play area at Universal or Disney Theme park in Orlando and offers hours of enjoyment for kids and families and is the biggest reason young kids want to keep coming back to Busch Gardens Theme Park!

We went on a day where we did open play but there was also music and movement, and we loved it! We got to play and roam about, then changed up the pace for some music and interaction for 30 mins. My little guy didn't make it all the way through, as it was nap time - but he had a blast! It really tuckered him out. We will definitely be back for some more play and socializing.

They have a little grocery store, kitchen, classroom, doctors office, office, construction area, a temporary pirate area and a few more. When we come my son leaves happy and takes a great nap on the way home. I like that it is never busy and there is a cap on the amount of kids that can play. My only gripe with this location is its $22 for an hour and a half of play when I could go to the glazer museum that is the same distance from my house. They are pretty similar except the glazer museum has much more to do for $20.

They were quite generous with our rental time, and even offered us a free cooler with ice (next time!). Even though it was just the two of us, we were so thankful to have upgraded to the 8 person covered boat because it was a balmy July day and the roominess and shade were perfect. The boat navigation is incredibly simple, and both recommended routes were straightforward to navigate. Would definitely book again!

We brought pizza, sushi, champagne, decorations, and enjoyed sailing down the river with relaxing music playing in the background. There were six of us, and we booked the largest boat. It was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for our setup. We never felt rushed, and the staff did a great job explaining everything before we set out. I'd do this again in a second! Perfect for birthdays, date nights, or a girls' day out.

An amazing place for a birthday party…read more We've been to a lot of birthday parties. I have two sons, ages five and three, both in school, so throughout the year we get invited to tons of birthday parties. This has got to be one of my favorite locations to date for this age. It was honestly perfect for a three year old. Yes, some of the areas are patched up with duct tape, so it's not state of the art, but both my three year old and I didn't care at all. I felt like it was clean and he had a blast. For birthday parties you get 80 minutes of play and then 60 minutes in a private party room (I know this because I loved this place so much I grabbed a flier that gave birthday information.) The 80 minutes flew by. That really is saying something, because at many birthdays with a three year old sometimes it lags, but here we all looked at our watches and said omg it's been an hour. That's because this is the perfect location for the (I would guess) eight and under set. My three year old was climbing up all the bouncey slides with his friends and they were flying down them. It was adorable to watch and I didn't have to be hands on at all. I could stand and chat with other parents while they climbed up the slides again and again and again. Then we moved over to the section that is more like a play place. Again they were completely fine climbing by themselves. Only twice did a parent have to go up to help their child (and tbh I don't think those parents had to, but they were just more worried than I was.) The room was a good size for the 10 kids or so this party had plus around 15 adults. It definitely looked like it could fit the 24 children that the largest party size holds. More of an FYI than anything negative, but it was a little warm the day we came. It was cool outside so I was dressed in a long sleeve shirt and shorts. It wasn't uncomfortable, but had I known I would have worn short sleeves. I asked about pricing and heard it is $16 for a full day pass. That seems reasonable to me. I could see myself bringing both kids in the future and letting them run their energy out. On a Sunday at 10 a.m. it was just our little party to start off with and by 11:20 a.m. it still wasn't that crowded. It might have been because it was a lovely day, but I appreciated that it wasn't crawling with kids. They also have an arcade section that you have to pay for. The arcade accepts credit/debit cards too. I told my son no, but it's an option. I will definitely be back.

We've been to some rinks around here and the floor is really greasy/oily. If you know, you know that really makes it hard to fully maintain full control when turning and cutting. We also really appreciated that they had a little corner of the floor tucked away for the little skaters. Our little one loved it over there as an escape from the crowd and more experienced skaters. Also, in the larger sizes they had some really nice roller hockey style inline skates. I don't think there are enough of those to cover all sizes, but if you are lucky enough to get a pair, they definitely looked legit. We'll definitely be back to this location again. The DJ also played a good mix of old school vs new school music.
