The last-minute booking was super convenient. My boyfriend and I decided to visit the aquarium on our last day in Italy. We took our time and spent an hour and 45 minutes there. I loved seeing the manatees, seals, dolphins, and penguins. Some of the reptile species were very impressive. We are very happy with our visit. There are even two souvenir shops and a snack bar in the middle of the tour. I recommend it.

A fantastic trip to the marine world. One of the largest aquariums in Europe introduces us to a world that is not accessible to us on a daily basis. We were most impressed by the dolphins and penguins. We had a fantastic three hours exploring.

Hello We made some nice discoveries but I find that the dolphins lack animation of ball their basin is like empty just 1 ball for 2 I found that sad. Likewise, we had taken the focaccia option, which we didn't have.

Beautiful aquarium and interesting behind-the-scenes tour. Lunch was good, but even though I had a reservation, I didn't expect to eat on a bench near the bathroom😱 The rest of the trip was great😉

I travelled with my Godson and his parents and he was totally amazed. The variety of sea life and the placement contributed to the magic.
