Busch Gardens Williamsburg

Summer vacation plans -
DH and I are planning to take our kids to Busch Gardens Williamsburg VA in late July. Anybody ever been? We've not and think it should be a fun trip. Ticket prices on their website are outrageous though. Geez, when did it cost so much to take a family of 4 to go have a little fun? We are planning to be gone at least 3 days since it's so far away from home... don't know what else we'll do while we're in Williamsburg. I wonder if our kids would be too bored with a visit to Colonial Williamsburg. So, with hotel stay, gas, food, and ticket prices, I'm sure we'll end up spending well over $1200 in 3 days! Ugh.

    I've been there several times being from Virginia. It's a smaller theme park than Kings Dominion which is also in VA. It's nice because they have different themed areas like "Ireland", "Germany", "Italy"... and one more I forget. But it's fun. The roller coasters are not as intense as some other theme parks but still fun none the less. They have a water park attached, but I think that's extra to go in.

    But have fun on your trip! Hope the weather stays nice for you and your family! Smile

    We took our kids a few years back and they loved it. But what they loved even more was Williamsburg itself. The town, activities, shows, ghost tours, etc... and most of it totally free!! Look it up online, you can stay very cheaply onsite in Williamsburg and there's free (or cheap) transportation into the town. We spent a day doing history in Williamsburg, then a day in BG, then a day in Jamestown, then a day at Water Country, etc. It is the best family vacation we ever took. have fun!

    Thanks, guys. It sounds like this will be a good trip then. Hopefully, it won't be too hot or be rainy these days we'll be there.
