Great tour to learn about Queensland aquatic and marine ecosystems! - Really great tour. The guide was knowledgeable and communicated well with people of varying knowledge levels.
The aquarium is very well set up with a good flow to the exhibits.

Engaging, intimate and unique! - What a great, engaging and intimate experience! We did the night tour with our guide, Jack. He was very knowledgeable and engaging. The evening experience also set a different tone we highly recommend. WHAT A GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Beautifully presented exhibits. - I thoroughly enjoyed this tour for the quality of the exhibits, the information provided and the enthusiasm of our guide. It was a fairly long tour but there is such a wide range of local fauna originating in this area that the time is needed to do justice to the unique environment nearby Cairns. Revealing facts and well presented settings of the creatures was impressive on this fairly new aquarium.

Nighttime Tour was lovely - The kids insisted on going here since all their friends raved about it. Turns out it was just as enjoyable for the adults as it was for them. No regrets ..

Twilight tour - We did the after-hours twilight tour, and Cameron was a fantastic guide! The most I’ve ever learned at an aquarium. So much better than just walking through and looking at the exhibits.

A night at the aquarium - Awesome experience and very informative tour.
I had a great time and seeing the exhibits after hours was a new experience that I totally enjoyed.
Will definitely do it again when I return.

Fantastic experience - There isn't a choice for family with adult children. So I chose family with teens!
My daughter is very much interested in marine biology, so this was right up her street! The two jrs, after hours group tour was very informative. The young lady who did the tour was fantastic. I've learned so much about the marine life from her explanation. And... the big bonus, you get to see these marine animals up close, without having to bump into other people. My favourite part was when we saw the whales & stingrays at the end and seeing the reefs coming alive after the lights turned off . Loved the experience! Thank you for giving us such an insight onto these animals.

A nice way to spend the afternoon/evening - This is a great aquarium - the displays are really well presented and the variety of fish and other life is excellent. We enjoyed the tour - it meant that it was not busy and we had easy viewing. The information was entertaining and enjoyable - quite basic for the wide range of people on the tour (I would have preferred some more detailed info at times but was able to ask questions if needed)
