We had an absolutely wonderful experience visiting The National Aquarium Abu Dhabi and The Butterfly Gardens, and it was honestly one of the best family outings we have had in Abu Dhabi. The National Aquarium was amazing from the moment we entered. The variety of marine life, the beautifully designed sections, and the huge underwater displays made the whole experience exciting and enjoyable for both adults and children. Everything was well organized, clean, and easy to explore, and we loved how educational the experience was without ever feeling boring. It was especially wonderful watching our little one get excited about all the different animals and discovering something new around every corner. The Butterfly Gardens was another highlight of our visit. Walking through the tropical environment surrounded by beautiful butterflies was such a peaceful and magical experience. The atmosphere was relaxing, and being able to see the butterflies flying freely around us made it feel very special. The gardens were also beautifully maintained, with plenty of greenery and interesting animals to see. Overall, it was a fantastic experience for the whole family. The combination of the aquarium and butterfly gardens made our visit even more memorable. We highly recommend both attractions to families, couples, and anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and unforgettable day in Abu Dhabi. We will definitely be coming back again!

We had a wonderful time at the National Aquarium Abu Dhabi! 🐠🐢🦈 We really enjoyed the beautiful views and seeing so many different kinds of aquatic species. The kids were absolutely amazed and excited throughout the visit. Seeing so many animals up close, especially some they had never seen before, was a special experience for them. Their faces lit up with excitement every time they discovered something new, and they couldn’t stop talking about the animals they saw. It was lovely to see their curiosity and happiness as they explored the aquarium. Overall, it was a fun, educational, and memorable experience for the whole family. We really enjoyed our visit and would definitely recommend it! ❤️

We really enjoyed our experience at the National Aquarium! 🐠💙 Even my 1-year-old absolutely loved it! She was fascinated by the jellyfish changing colors under the lights, and she especially enjoyed the huge glass aquarium with so many stingrays and turtles swimming around. And we were amazed in the glass aquarium with so many sharks!! My adult friends loved the experience just as much, which really shows that it’s a place for everyone, regardless of age. Such a fun and memorable experience for the whole family. Definitely worth visiting!

The entry did not go smoothly as there had been problems with both the barcode provided and the app. But a quick call and the subsequent response had been quick, and we did get to enjoy the day. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed talking in particular to one staff from "The Story of Earth", who spoke with us in detail about the origins, including the moon and space artifacts. The dinosaur displays were awesome, and the hunt for hidden tardigrades was very interesting.

It was my best journey during the ast couple of years. I enjoy the place, the vibes and the animals. The most beautiful place was the forest when I saw the Tucans, the chameleon, the beavers, the ray fish, the ibis, the turtles and all the other free animals moving in the place. It is not only enjoyable for kids, but it was enjoyable for adults, couples and groups. Appreciated for the great place and the worthy journey.

It was a very beautiful and joyful moment for me. I think, this is a very beautiful place in Abu Dhabi. I felt like I was lost in the world of fish under the sea. Thanks to the Abu Dhabi National Aquarium team for giving tourists such a beautiful place to visit.
