Busch Gardens Tour, Tampa Florida 1967

The Fabulous Busch Gardens of Tampa Florida 1967. A Time Capsule showing Busch Gardens in 1967. Travel to the top of the brewery on the Stairway to the Stars, the longest escalator in the world. See the grounds in 1967, and take a monorail ride to view animals from the African continent. Mastered from 16mm color film with moderate fading. Color corrected.

It's so strange not to see huge roller coasters peaking over the trees.

Thank you for this.

My pleasure!

So cool that I can watch something from decades ago about a theme park I love. Pretty cool to see the loading station unchanged from the monorail for Cheetah Hunt.

I still remember the gnome garden area and the brewery in the early 80s when i was a kid. Rode the python with my dad

Many Sundays my parents took me to Tampa to visit my grandparents. We went here many times. Thank you it was the early 60’s

At least the park kept the Hospitality House (3:05). It is amazing how that building is still around. It was one time an Italian Buffet but then was turned into a general restaurant. A great reminder of the Park's vast history.

I have been reading a book about the park, and it was a good book.

The african elephants are favorite to both adults and kids and they,re my favorite too🐘

[@bleu_fever]

Wow, didn't realize how big the wild life area was for the animals... although it's still rather big, it would've been nice to keep it more open space for certain animals like the hippos, elephants, etc.

[@themeparkcheetah]

A lot of this is still there

[@kingporter67]

Excellent 1967 Busch Gardens Tour and it was mastered from 16mm color film, P.S. The Busch Gardens of today, I do NOT like it at all!!

[@parrishpinkney]

Damn none of these people got to see technology

[@willyjoerockhead]

Now it's all "The fastest roller coaster in the south east!" "Highest this" and "steepest that!"

[@sparkyfister]

I would imagine idea because they'd like people to still go there.

[@amark350]

imagine if the people of anheuser busch in the 60's could peak into the future and see the 'new face' of the company - dylan mulvaney 🤢🤮

[@hydr012]

4:40 those were the days before cancel culture 😂😂

[@marlindailey5306]

It's too bad that they ruined the garden with amusement rides.

[@sparkyfister]

You must 82

[@warriorseamonkey1693]

It wasnt ruined. It was good back then and is still good now.
