Awesome! - Very nice and. It really is huge. We accommodate very well, because you can go in and take a meal break or walk in the mall before continuing your tour. The last entry is at 9:15 pm.

Amazing day at Dubai aquarium - A great experience all within the Dubai mall. We had a family ticket and daughter was hugely excited by all of the experience running from tank to tank. Getting to see the size of the crocodiles was also an amazing site but very scary for young kids . Getting to go in and feed the fish was great experience for everyone think as to Sami for going that bit extra

Aquarium at Dubai - We visited the aquarium as a family not sure what to expect. We we’re all very pleasantly surprised . It was excellent! Very well cared for animals and spotlessly clean. I’ve never seen animals so active in their enclosures. There is a huge alligator and l mean huge! Who was clearly very happy as he was moving around and eating the food the keeper had thrown in. For a couple of hours doing something completely different in Dubia I’d highly recommend it. Travel tips The company l used to buy my tickets before only gave me one choice of the time l could visit. As l hadn’t visited before l thought it would be packed with people it wasn’t. So perhaps contact the aquarium directly for bookings and again the company l used didn’t give me the option of downloading the tickets before hand. If it wasn’t for the very helpful staff at the ticket office l would have been stuck with no ticket. It turned out that l had to phone the travel company who then wattsapp me the tickets in a message. I then could download the tickets for the aquarium staff to print off to allow me in. A little complicated l feel. But we had a great time there for around two hours

BEAUTIFUL AQAURIUM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SHOPPING MALL - In the middle of the shopping mall you can admire a beautiful aquarium. We did not go inside, there was a lot to see on the outside. It was very busy during the Christmas period. Large sharks and other fish regularly swim by

Ultimate package experience - We got an ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE Package, this package was including: 1) Aquarium Tunnel – we expected more from that, in fact, it was so short and small, so we were literally shocked that it’s so small tunnel. Whatever people see outside they see it much more and for free. So if you plan just to visit Aquarium – it’s not worth it. However we visited many other things, and overall, the experience was nice and interesting. So for this, I would give a rating of 1 f out 5 stars. 2) Underwater Zoo – this area is huge and super interesting, we spent most of the time there, checking fishes, and other sea creatures. 5/5 3) Guided Behind the Scenes tour – that was quite a short tour, and we did not go much deep, still, it was an interesting experience to learn “secrets”. 4/5 4) Penguin Cove – I was thinking we will enter inside the cove, but in fact, there were just 2 glasses where we could see penguins and take pictures. Not exciting 1/5 5) Interactive Platform Glass Boat Tour – that was a nice experience, we could watch divers and fishes from close up 5/5 6) Fish Feeding – nothing extraordinary, just feeding the fishes, yet it was nice to watch them while eating food that you thrown to them 5/5 7) We also got 20 rials vouchers for one café inside and 20 rials vouchers for souvenirs. Very nice bonus!

Expensive but fun - Rather an impressive enterprise in the middle of the mall. Very professional. Overly well designed with great aquarium part, as well as zoo. Biggest downside is $$$$. I inadvertently bought an ultimate experience, which included all parts, including glass bottom boat. It wasn’t bad but not for the price. My kid enjoyed it. I def saw better aquariums and zoos but considering the size and location- very impressive! Def worth some modified visit.

Mega aquarium in shopping center - 10 million gallons of seawater, changed every week. Hundreds of sharks, rays and colorful fish swim around. It is an expensive Attraction and the view of the fish is not great everywhere. You can even take a glass bottom boat for a spin in the aquarium. This doesn't really add much. In addition, the aquarium has several other animals such as penguins, a crocodile, otters, jellyfish and snakes. A mini zoo, where the animals do not have much space. Nice for little kids.

Better than the Burj Khalifa - You can actually see just as much of the aquarium just standing outside without paying for it. You just go through glass tunnel. The zoo is just lots of fish in small tanks. The best bit where the otters..

I regret it! - The best part of the attraction is the outdoor aquarium in the mall corridor. Pay 299 b. (expensive) at the local ticket office for 3 boring attractions. I don't recommend it and I wouldn't go back
