We had the most amazing day! We went behind the scenes and Penny our guide was fantastic! My son loved every moment and learnt so much thank you for making it so special for him
My parents and I visited the aquarium today and had a wonderful time! James and Alexandra gave us a stellar behind the scenes tour and were absolutely lovely!
We got to see so many interesting creatures and we absolutely recommend the behind the scenes pass to anyone visiting since you get to see some of the hidden gems up close. Definitely deserves more then five stars thank you again to all the staff for making our day so magical and amazing.
