What sort of cafe does not serve black tea. Fancy fruit teas, plenty. Common black hot tea? Sorry no!

The best aquarium I’ve been to Great penguin exhibit. The ranks of fish were beautiful. Gigantic turtle was very cool. Only sorry that the octopus was kind of hiding so we saw just a bit of it 🐙

Easy to sign up and use. The aquarium was fun and great to do on a rainy day. We liked the large tank in the middle of building and that you can walk all around it on different levels.

The aquarium is very small. It only took us about an hour to walk through the whole place and we spent most of our time watching the penguins. The whole aquarium is centered around the penguin exhibit. Some of the tanks and pools the animals are in seem a bit too small for them which was sad to see. They should do better to give the animals as much space as possible. There is a small cafe where you can grab small bites like chicken fingers, fries, burgers, pizza and sandwiches. Overall wasn’t very impressed with the aquarium. There are better activities to spend your time in Boston.

I heard good things about this aquarium, but my family was done in about 1.5 hours and honestly most of it was spent at the touch tank which was awesome. I'm telling myself that the tank is what my money went for and then we just walked around. Also, we specifically went on a weekday and it was still super crowded. I think they need a better outdoor seal area and the shark area needs to be improved. Otherwise exhibits are good, but it is small and crowded.

The kids really liked the large tank, especially the turtles. The “touch” tank was also a huge success. Only thing, was the penguins were being fed when we came in and staff was still in the exhibit and hour and a half later, so we couldn’t do the interactive light with them.

The Aquarium has nice displays. I loved all the different penguins and seals. However, the space was very overcrowded. I was surprised for an early Thursday afternoon how busy it was. There is a round tank in the middle expands several floors. It the flow was a little confusing. There is a display in the beginning of to the left that has a touch tank. That was the most crowded. The seal display outside was nice. Down in the basement is a shark display- but without any real life sharks. That was my daughters biggest complaint. She wanted to see a shark tank. If your vacation is limited with time, I would skip this venue Unless you have little kids that love marine life.

Very small and dark, biggest attraction is the winding ramp that circles the large tank. Then you can get to the top and look into it. For the price I wouldn't go again, cheaper to buy a ticket through CitiPass where you get discounted tickets other Boston attractions as well. We saved 45% on all tickets so we weren't too upset. Would probably not go again, plenty of other things to do in the area for kids.
