Dubai Mall Aquarium - one of the wonders of Dubai - I had a day to spent in Dubai, and like most tourists, decided to head to Dubai Mall. It's only after I reached the Mall that I came to know of the Aquarium. With the entire afternoon at hand, I decided to go for the complete package. The visit started with the tunnel aquarium, with various kinds of sharks, rays, and other aquatic life forms surrounding you from 3 sides. One of the aquarium guides, Ramanu, ended up being my guide for the entire stay (which lasted about 2 hours). From the tunnel aquarium we went to the boat ride. The boat had a glass floor, through which a wide variety of marine creatures could be seen. Thereafter we went to the mini aquarium and zoo. I call it a zoo since not only was there a range of fishes and aquatic life forms (sea horses, clown fishes, jellyfishes, and a hundred other varieties), but there were also enclosures containing otters, penguins, sloth bears, and so on. There were also some tiny enclosures which housed various rodents and "creatures of the night". Not to forget, there was a gigantic crocodile couple as well. The ticket also included an opportunity to feed fishes, but I decided to skip that. The exhibit also included displays showcasing the entire life cycle of sharks! For penguin lovers, there was an option to pay extra and spend time up close with the penguins (which I decided to skip). Overall, it was an extremely enjoyable couple of hours spent in the Dubai Mall Aquarium. Special thanks to Ramanu for explaining so many little and big things about the fishes.

Unexpected tour guide Terence - Terence was the best tour guide I’ve ever had! He answered all of my questions and provided wonderfully detailed information about the sea life around us. I would recommend a visit especially if you get to interact with Terence. Thank you again for a wonderful experience!

Dubai trip - Highly recommended trip to try at least once, then you would like to return but with more desire and enthusiasm or perhaps for a probable search for future life experiences.

Aquarium from all sides 👌 - Large aquarium in the Dubai Mall, you can buy a ticket on the website and it is valid for a month from the date of purchase or there is no difference in price on the spot. You can buy a ticket to the complex and visit the aquarium itself on two floors, as well as ride a boat and look at the fish from above and get information about the fish... and you can also feed them and you can also visit and see the penguins. Very cool and interesting for children.

Da fare se avete Bambini con voi ! - So, beautiful aquarium, with our son we saw a lot of aquarium (genoa, barcelona, insambull etc.) but this had the most beautiful species of fish. It's short-lived in the sense that for the part of the aquarium there's only the tunel, then you go up to the zoomarine. I really appreciated something that I hadn't seen elsewhere. Almost for every wax tray a staff member to whom you could ask all the questions you wanted and were very prepared to answer you for any curiosity. In addition, when you leave that you go to the final store you have a considerable discount on redimble purchases from the ticket price which was much appreciated. My son really liked the whole experience. As adults, nice yes, but not an indispensable step. If you have children, absolutely yes. p.s the photos you take you can buy them or not, we did not do few and they were not real photos but they did a kind of very tacky montage. it was much nicer to do them yourself.

CHEATING - CHEATING - CHEATING - CHEATING - CHEATING - The biggest cheating business in anywhere on this planet. Reasons? 1. Ticket AED 199. Too high a price to see too little. 2. Whatever you see after paying AED 199, can be seen free from outside. 3. Total vieing time is less than 90 Seconds. 4. They sell you photographs @ AED 100 per photo, such a scam from such shameless people. 5. Rude Staff - They anyway know that they are cheating. They speak in a very raised voice. Dont go there.
