Serengeti Flyer

Busch Gardens Tampa

This project was constructed in a portion of the original Rhino Rally Area. Meyer Associates provided conceptual design, architecture, and engineering services for the project, including site planning and design of guest areas, queueing, structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing design. This new swing ride that takes riders high above Busch Gardens Tampa Bay’s expansive 65-acre Serengeti Plain while experiencing multiple negative-G moments before plunging back toward the Earth. Serengeti Flyer will feature twin dueling arms that soar progressively higher reaching speeds of 68 mph and a maximum height of 135 feet at the ride’s peak. Guests will be seated back-to-back in rows of 10 across two gondolas, allowing for 40 guests to experience the ride at once.
