| Showing my ignorance here but what is the Montu? We are looking forward to going to Busch Gardens later this year. We've heard it's much better than AK.

| According to nick Montu is a smoother ride but kraken is still his favourite.
Personally i like to keep my feet on the ground - one ride on kraken and i felt  for some time after!

| I agree with all the above. Montu is fantastic, and I would highly recommend the front row!!
But Sheikra has to be the best one ever!! When we went in August we queued up 7 times in a row to go on it! We did a child swap because our youngest was too small (and too scared), our other two got to go on it 14 times, 7 times with me, and 7 times with my husband. THATS how good it was. As said already, the front row is an absolute must, and yes, the outer edge seats are best.

We love BG it just a long day with 150 mile round trip.
Hi Pieman
Have you ever thought of staying overnight? I think we will do BG next time we visit the Gulf coast.

| I have said it before and i will say it agsin, i think apart from being 210ft up and a great view of Tampa Sheikra is very Lame. There are much better rides in Orlando at the parks and to be honest i would not put it in my Top 5.
1) The Hulk
2) Kraken
3) Gwazi
4) Rockin Rollercoaster
5) Montu.

| Sheikra is brilliant that feeling when your at the top of that first vertical drop is terrifying! but i think Montu beats it(in my opinion). We think Busch gardens is great, we were there in August the weather let us down badly, but we got open tickets to return again which is brill. | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

| I don't do big rides but those in my family that do think this is a great ride - fab photo of them looking terrified They sat next to someone who had an annual pass and apparently if you have that you don't even have to get off the ride if you don't want to. Her son did it 50 times in a row | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |
