If you have the chance to go this see all I can say is Go. Great place to take the children or any age. We loved it

We were a group of Kitchen designers in town for corporate training. We heard that the Aquarium would be open until 9:00 PM on Thursday evening at half price. We had the place to ourselves to explore and it was awesome! For a very visual group of people, it offered so much to see. Cameras were flashing with inspiration. We... More

All exhibits were excellent, with the highlight being the dolphin show, of course. If I had to return, I would visit on a weekday to try to avoid the crowds. Regardless, this is definitely an Atlanta highlight and a must-see.

The aquarium itself was great but it was extremely crowed. My fiance and I chose a terrible time to go. In the middle of the day during a school week was a terrible decision on our part because there was children running around everywhere from field trips making it much more difficult to see the exhibits. We were not impressed... More

This was our 3rd visit to the Georgia Aquarium. All of our visits have been to take out of town guests! Except for our first visit, which was the day after Thanksgiving, several years ago, we have enjoyed our visit. Crowds can get very heavy, especially around holidays, so try to time your visit to a weekday, during a nonholiday... More

Took our 2 teenage sons to The Georgia Aquarium to break up a long road trip ( spent the night at the very nearby Omni) . Had discount tickets from AAA ($6 savings/ ticket) and spent about 3 hours visiting . The " Ocean Voyager" exhibit is completely stunning - this is where you can view the whale sharks and... More

This is a nice Aquarium but be prepared for elbow to elbow crowds in the high summer months from June until the kids go back to school which is usually around the end of August. This Aquarium bills itself as the biggest in the United States but if you have had the opportunity to visit the beautiful Monterrey Bay Aquarium... More

This place has blown every other aquarium we've been to out of the water (pun intended). A wonderful place to get lost and just enjoy your day! It's a little expensive and they limit the number of daily patrons so get tickets in advance.
