A huge 135-foot swing, Serengeti Flyer, arrives at Busch Gardens this spring! 

A new ride is swinging into Busch Gardens Tampa Bay early next year, and the theme park says it will be the world's tallest and fastest ride of its kind in the world! The Serengeti Flyer is 135 feet tall and hits speeds of 68 miles per hour! 

 “Serengeti Flyer’s thrilling ride experience is bound to provide riders with a pulse-pounding encounter that can only be found at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay,” said Neal Thurman, Park President of Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. “We believe that Serengeti Flyer will be the perfect high-thrill addition to our world-class portfolio of attractions including Iron Gwazi, the Golden Ticket Award Winner for the Best New Roller Coaster in 2022.”

The Serengeti Flyer is a thrilling ride with dueling arms that soar progressively higher while reaching speeds of 68 mph and a maximum height of 135 feet. Guests will be seated back-to-back in rows of 10 across two gondolas, allowing for 40 guests to experience the ride at once. You will soar above Busch Gardens' 65-acre Serengeti Plain, overlooking the grasslands where giraffes and zebras roam.
