How far between The Sirata Beach Resort and Bush Gardens

I%26#39;m going with my daughter(21) and I%26#39;m wondering how far it is from my hotel and whether I should rent a car for the week or go by taxi for the day.Anyone have any advice as to what to see at Bush Gardens(important stuff). This is My first visit to the area. Thanks

How far between The Sirata Beach Resort and Bush Gardens

Busch Gardens is in Tampa, across the Bay. I would use Google maps to get the exact routing and time estimate, but I%26#39;d guesstimate 45 minutes to an hour.

Definitely get a car if you plan to go to Tampa from SPB; it will give you flexibility to go to Pass A Grille beach, Ft. DeSoto Park, etc. as well as more restaurant choices.
