CoupleVerified booking4 days ago5/5A Wonderful Family Experience in Abu Dhabi We had a wonderful time visiting the Butterfly Garden and The National Aquarium Abu Dhabi. Both attractions were beautifully maintained and offered a great experience for families and children. The Butterfly Garden was peaceful and fascinating, with beautiful butterflies flying around freely. It was a lovely place to relax, take photos, and enjoy nature up close. The National Aquarium Abu Dhabi was equally impressive, with a wide variety of marine life and beautifully designed displays. The exhibits were informative, exciting, and enjoyable for both children and adults. Overall, it was a memorable experience and definitely worth visiting. I would highly recommend Butterfly Garden and The National Aquarium Abu Dhabi to anyone looking for a fun, educational, and family-friendly attraction in Abu Dhabi.RRichard S
GroupVerified bookingLast week5/5To be completely honest I wasn't really expecting too much, but the last day of my daughters 3 week visit and the chance to hide for a while from the summer heat inside the aquarium game across and a good idea. Were give directions by reception staff on arrival and started our tour. It was fantastic worth every dirham of the entrance fee. An amazing variety of not only fist but snakes, lizards, birds, otters to name a few it was breathtaking. Very relaxing walking at our own pace and really soaking in the environment. Then the visit to the area where they look after turtles that have been caught in fishing next or fishing line and then released back to the wild. These people do a great job and it well worth a visit I'm sure you will not be disappointedAAbdulla A
GroupVerified bookingLast week5/5Our family visit to SeaWorld Abu Dhabi and the Butterfly World was absolutely magical and unforgettable!SeaWorld completely blew us away with its world-class marine exhibits and breathtaking ocean realms. It was both educational and deeply moving to see the majestic marine life up close. Right after, stepping into the Butterfly World felt like walking through a living fairytale. Being surrounded by thousands of brilliantly colored butterflies in a lush paradise was pure enchantment.It was the perfect blend of high-energy wonder and serene beauty. The facilities are top-notch, and the staff were incredibly welcoming. This trip provided us with beautiful family memories that will last a lifetime. A must-visit destination in Abu Dhabi!
