Fun for adults and kids alike, the Austin Aquarium is an educational and memorable outing for the whole family. Feel like you dove beneath the depths of the ocean and discover the brightly hued creatures that live below as you gaze into the giant tanks, feel the silky smooth skin of a stingray, and learn about the resident giant Pacific octopus. Daily talks, tours, special sleepovers for children, and birthday parties let guests get up-close and personal with the many inhabitants at the aquarium.

Marcus was the first face i seen when i walked through the door. His customer service was excellent. Made my first impression of this place 5 stars automatically. Thank you so much for being part of making my daughters birthday such an exciting experience. Your awesome!!!
The only reason I'm giving one star is because of how nice Ryan was, the other staff was not welcoming and not attentive. The poor tortoise was harassed walking around. Kids were running wild and hands were placed in and on everything possible. I should have done a google search before coming.
Was small but some much funn!!!! A little high $$$ but we still had a good time... need tokens to do everything
It is very fun for little kids but for older kids and adults it is very boring. The animals do not seems to be treated properly.
Abuses the animals and has absolutely horrible habitats for all the animals. What are they thinking having monkeys in small rooms???? Absolutely disgusting the cleanliness was disgusting. The birds poop everywhere, the lizards bite, and the shop is way too expensive.
Second time in this aquarium and I don't remember it being SO SMALL! We walked through it relatively quickly (approximately 30 minutes) and thankfully, we are members of the SA aquarium so we didn't pay, but I'm not too sure if the price of this place justifies the experience. The front staff was great and accommodating, but the aquarium itself does need work & more exhibits.
I always love visiting this aquarium and every visit has been a very special experience for me. The staff are very welcoming when you first enter and the environment inside is always clean and top notch. It is expected that it will always smell like wildlife in the building but they always have passionate workers that make sure they clean and provide the care for all the animals around the clock. The highlight of my day when visiting this place is the personal experience of feeding the aquatic friends. You can tell how excit... read more
My wife and I decided to do a date day and went to the Austin Aquarium, as we love Aquariums and Zoos. Our only regret is not taking more pictures while we were there! The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, and the entire experience was amazing. They have so many animal encounters, we had a hard time choosing which to do! So first thing to know is they have a token-based system there. If you want to feed the fish/sting rays/sharks/etc, you put a token in the little gumball machine and an egg with that exhibits f... read more
Being a Science teacher for my school district, it was amazing to see a team who were so passionate about their careers working with these animals. Ryan has built such a strong bound with the Aquarium's residents and you can see the pure joy he has with the reptiles and others. I was able to have full conversations going back and forth with our known knowledge and learn new facts to bring back to my students as well. The team that we were able to meet, Ryan and Brandi, both made this visit an informative and engaging exper... read more
