My boyfriend and I went to SeaQuest to celebrate our anniversary, and we weren't expecting to be…read morethere too long- and holy cow we were proved wrong! This exhibit is much larger than I ever thought, and we spent a couple hours exploring. We were iffy visiting with the previous facility's history, however this puts the previous place to shame. All of the animals are so well taken care of, and the staff clearly cares for all of the animals deeply. We had paid to feed miss Coconut, the baby capybara. We had two rounds each of feeding Coconut some greens, and then got to give her some scratches as well. The staff were very informative and were super helpful! I 100% recommend this place, it was so much fun

I'm very torn on this place…read more.. t's great that Vegas has an aquarium where kids can have hands-on semi educational interactions with real sea life and other exotic animals. The size of this place is deceiving, when we first walked in, I thought we would be in and out within 30-minutes. We were actually here for over two hours and every corridor we walked into offered a new smattering of lizards, bunnies, snakes, otters, huge fish, and even a massive saltwater tank filled with small sharks and stingrays. I realize a lot of the animals here are rescues, but I truly felt sorry for all of the mammals here... do they ever see the sun? Are they allowed to go outside and get fresh air? Or do they just stay inside basking in the fluorescent lights? I feel like if they had that information posted it wouldn't be as a bummer seeing capybara's, wallabies, and tons of birds, in small cages; inside of a mall. If you're local and you haven't been here yet, it's definitely worth at least one trip.

What a fun kid friendly place! My kids loved the "tunnel" going through the fish, and especially…read morethe tide pool. It was nice to also see other animals besides just marine creatures too. It is a bit in the smaller side for an aquarium, and depending on how young or easily entertained your kids are, you may or may not be done quickly. I know my kids could probably be happy here for hours and hours though. If you aren't a local, then I'm not sure if the ticket price on top of having to pay for parking would feel worth it, but then again that is dependent on each person and what they want to do for their family. This was our first time to the shark aquarium, even though we've been living out here for about seven years, and also a first for me even going to Mandalay Bay despite visiting Vegas often before having kids and moving out here. Just from the area of walking to go to the ticket area inside, Mandalay seems very spacious and beautiful. I could even see myself spending a good amount of time with the kids just walking around in the non-casino sections.

I am extremely disappointed with our experience at Shark Reef. What was supposed to be a fun and…read morememorable family outing turned into a stressful and heartbreaking experience for our daughter and our entire family. We fully understood that the activity was intended for children ages 5 and up. However, staff scanned and accepted my daughter's ticket without any issue and allowed us to go through the entire process, which naturally led us to believe she was approved to participate. It wasn't until we reached the very front, after waiting and getting her excited for the experience, that staff suddenly stopped us and told her she could not participate. Having to tell a child at the last second that she was no longer allowed to join after already being checked in was incredibly upsetting. Our daughter immediately started crying and was devastated. My wife and I then had to step away to comfort and carry her while everyone else continued on. Because of how poorly this was handled, neither my wife nor I were able to enjoy the experience either. The issue is not the rule itself we respected the age requirement. The problem is the complete lack of communication and professionalism. If there was an issue with her eligibility, it should have been addressed before her ticket was scanned and before we waited through the line and built up her expectations. Instead of creating a positive family memory, this experience left us frustrated, embarrassed, and deeply disappointed. We spent time, money, and effort planning this outing only to have it ruined by poor organization and careless handling of the situation. Families deserve better communication and better treatment than this.

Perfect active fun for our energetic 2 and 3 year old boys!…read moreWe brought our toddlers to the DISCOVERY Children's Museum and they had an absolute blast. This place is a huge indoor playground with three floors of hands-on exhibits that kept them moving the whole time. They loved Toddler Town on the first floor the desert themed soft play, sensory elements, and crawl spaces were just right for their age. But the real highlight was The Summit, the giant 70-foot climbing structure that spans all three floors with 12 levels. I was surprised how well our 2 and 3 year olds handled it! They climbed the levels with no problem, exploring different challenges and interactive spots at their own pace. It was great to see their confidence grow as they went up and down. They also enjoyed the water play area (smocks provided still recommend a change of clothes) and some of the imaginative play zones. We spent about 2.5-3 hours there, and it felt like the perfect energy-burner in air-conditioned comfort a lifesaver in Las Vegas! The museum is clean, the staff is friendly, and it's very stroller-friendly. Admission is $15 for Nevada locals with valid ID and $20 for non-locals (kids under 1 are free). We went on a weekday and it wasn't too crowded, which made chasing the boys around much easier. Helpful tip for families on a budget: If you have a valid EBT, SNAP, or WIC card, you can get admission for just $5 per person (up to 4 tickets per adult cardholder cards must be shown at entry for verification; in-person only). If you have active little ones who love to climb and explore, this is a fantastic spot. Highly recommend -- we'll definitely be back!

It was nice having something fun for kids to do that doesn't involve being 21+ or sitting in a hotel room, especially while her parents had a chance to gamble. We had so much fun and stayed for a few hours. I was honestly exhausted after going through the jungle gym, but there are so many hands-on learning experiences and activities that keep kids engaged the whole time. The Grocery Store was a popular place that the kids seemed to enjoy. The quality of the exhibits is great, and for how much there is to do, the value is totally worth it. Highly recommend for families. We'll definitely be back the next time she comes to visit.

The aquarium has a 50 foot long salt water tank located in the center of the Forum Shops, with Roman sculptures, fountains, etc. surrounding the tank. Inside there is tropical fish, stingrays and even small sharks swim in the midst of an shopping experience at a casino like Caesars. The aquarium is part of the Atlantis area for the spectacular shows, making it feel as though you are in some sort of unique, Las Vegas only experience. I ended up stumbling across The Atlantis Aquarium while on my way to Carmine's for a special event on a Wednesday evening. It's right next to the parking garage and exit, as well as some of the other dining options like the Cheesecake Factory. For visiting the Atlantis Aquarium, you do not need to schedule time for it, or purchase an entry ticket, you simply go there! I felt like they did an excellent job with the visual arrangement. The combination of the large aquarium, statues, the painting on the ceiling of the sky, and the near by animated show featuring the character from Atlantis was a lot of fun! I wouldn't call it a destination attraction on its own, but it's definitely worth stopping to look at if you're already walking through the Forum Shops. It's quick and free!
