Great aquarium for the location. Get tickets online for their discount. Also if you have time do the "behind the scenes" tour. You also get a discount on those IF you bought your tickets online. All the staff we encountered there were very helpful, knowledgeable and seemed to thoroughly enjoy their jobs.

This place is very interesting for all age groups! The jelly fish were pretty far out! Employees were very friendly and knew their stuff!!! If you are at MOA it is a must to stop and see!!

Nice little aquarium in the Mall of America. Online you can get discounted prices or depending on where you stay, you can sometimes get free passes. When we were there, they had a promotion where if you bought anything from one of the food court restaurants you could show it at the aquarium and get "Buy one, get one free"...

This was a very fun experience...expensive like everything else, but definitelyl something to experience. Walking through the tunnel and seeing sharks swim over your head is really cool!

This was my favorite at Mall of America. We purchased our tickets online so we go them cheaper. It was so pretty inside and fun to look at and your wristband is good all day so you can keep going back!

The price was really good when you use a coupon which you can get everywhere and it was so beautiful and amazing to see. They also had plenty of staff on hand to answer any questions.

I enjoyed this attraction, although I went at a time when a daycare was visiting and the screams of 3 and 4 year olds got old after awhile, but all and all a great experience. I've been to the aquariums and Sea World and Epcot and although they are bigger, I can't say they are any better. Hats off to...

I hadn't been to the aquarium since it was called underwater world. My 16 yo daughter and I went through on Friday and really enjoyed it. We especially like that the addition to the tunnel where the fish swim overhead and that they took out the moving walkway. We thought that younger kids would really like the touch pools so...

Theaquarium starts out with a touch pool and workers available to answer your questions. You can touch a star fish! Then you enter this amazing (long) tunnel with very large fish and then VERY Large sharks! The tunnels seem small and at first frightening to a small child. A little prep about the thickness of the glass may help! We...
