2 weeks agoA very impressive aquarium at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. The price for adults is $30. Children aged 4 and under enter for free. Seniors get a $2 discount. A very pleasant tour with unique types of fish. The place is clean and quiet. In my opinion, it’s worth a visit.

2 weeks agoFor a casino aquarium, not bad, easily walkable within 30 mins. Really cook large octopus. Sting ray petting is popular but these limited amount of sting rays aren't to friendly. Shark tank is very diverse in species. Tanks need proper cleaning, water was pretty murky. They had sea turtles too but they were difficult to see about the tunnel and wasn't moving. Is it worth the money? I think real price should be $20. Good to past time.

a week agoThis was perfect and unexpected for being a great aquarium. They have lizards, a snake, sharks and other fish. The spaces are super clean but humid. Not ADA so if you have mobility problems there are a lot of steps even with the elevator. It is located all the way in the back past the beach.

a month agoDefinitely worth a visit if you’re spending time on the strip. It’s very clean and family friendly. I was impressed by the variety of sharks and other sea creatures. It’s smaller than I expected, but I still really enjoyed it and would gladly visit again. The price is great as well. I purchased tickets in advance and visited on a week day. There was no wait to get in.

a month agoReally expensive for what it is but I would say it’d probably be good to bring small kids to! It’s not very large and we finished the entire aquarium in well under 20 minutes even though it was extremely crowded in there. I definitely recommend finding cheaper tickets online before going if you really want to go, but honestly there’s so many better things to do while in Vegas. (There is a stingray ‘petting’ area though which was pretty cool!)
