Stanleyville

 

If we continue in a clockwise direction, the next area we come across is Stanleyville, which is surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. At the centre, near an orangutan island, is the Stanleyville Theatre where you can hear Big Band music. There is also a Train Station where you can catch the Trans-Veldt Railway. We will also encounter Busch Gardens wet rides here:-

Stanley Falls Log Flume Ride

A log flume ride that may appear dated and slow, but is guaranteed to get you soaked with a 40-foot drop at the end. Minimum height 42", ride duration 3 ½ minutes.

Tanganyika Tidal Wave

A tranquil jungle journey aboard a 20-seater boat ends with a sudden plunge down a 55-foot drop into a splash pool, creating a tidal wave that gets you, and anybody foolish enough to be standing on the viewing bridge at the bottom of the drop. There is a Plexiglas shelter where you can hide to avoid the splash if you are chicken. Ride duration is 6 minutes and the minimum height is 42".

Orchid Canyon

A hundred-yard walk through an area with cascading orchids, that also features lemurs, rhinoceroses, eland and orangutans peacefully snoozing in their enclosures.
