Everything was good and exactly as described, but the experience feels a bit expensive for what it offers — it doesn’t fully justify the price. Another issue is the Glass Boat Tour. It’s not allowed for children under 2 years old, even though the tour is very simple and doesn’t include anything unsafe or special that would require this restriction. There are also no conveniences or features for young children. Overall, it’s a nice attraction, but the pricing and the Glass Boat Tour policy reduce the overall value.

Overall good, must go, lot of things to do here and lots of aquatic life, reptiles and animals to see including penguins. Fish feeding was a little disappointing. There is a Super croc here which is the biggest croc I have ever seen including the ones from TV

Review – 4/5 ⭐ Our visit to Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo with the Ultimate Experience Gold Pass was overall a very enjoyable family experience, especially for my children. The aquarium itself is impressive, well-maintained, and full of fascinating marine life. Walking through the tunnel and seeing sharks and rays up close was a real highlight for all of us, and the staff were generally friendly and helpful. However, despite the many positives, we did experience a major disappointment. One of the key reasons we chose the Ultimate Experience Gold Pass was the opportunity to meet and take photos with the penguins. Unfortunately, this experience did not happen as expected. This was quite upsetting for me, my wife, and especially our children, who were genuinely excited and had been looking forward to this part of the visit the most. The disappointment was significant because the ticket explicitly suggested that this experience was included. Overall, it is a great attraction and worth visiting, particularly for families, but clearer communication and better management of expectations regarding premium experiences would make it truly outstanding.
