Skyride (Egypt Station)

The Cheetah Hunt Plaza/Egypt station of the Von Roll SkyRide, an aerial tram above Busch Gardens Tampa Bay.

SkyRide gives Busch Gardens Tampa Bay a different pace: instead of walking between the areas, you float above the Serengeti Plain and look out toward Stanleyville. From the station at Cheetah Hunt Plaza, the ride begins as a calm sightseeing moment above animals, pathways and attractions.
