Went at a busy time . With stroller, could not get around very well . And got lost in several locations. Needs to have lines to direct people

Way overpriced and so underwhelming. Wouldn't take our family again

I went to Wonders of Wildlife for the first time with my family today but had a very frustrating experience. We brought our little wagon with us to help with our 2 year old and 3 year old, but was told that wagons were not allowed and they suggested we rent their stroller instead. While walking through the aquarium we saw SEVERAL other people pulling their wagons behind them. Their stroller kept tipping over on us and even tipped over on my two year old. It kept getting snagged along the walls and there were several areas w... read more

Visited last weekend. Was required to buy a ticket to both the aquarium and museum even though we were only interested in viewing the aquarium. While waiting in line to buy tickets the man in front of me was offered a military/ veterans discount. when I approached the counter I was not offered the discount but inquired as I am also a veteran. the attendant was very rude and asked me to prove it. (please note the man in front of me was not asked for proof of his service). She insisted I should have my "veterans card" on m... read more

Make sure you know when they close since the staff did not communicate the closing time and how long the tour actually took and kicked us out halfway through. Loved what i saw, completely pissed off about getting kicked out after purchasing a family membership. The customer service could improve immensely.

We had a season pass with guest passes. Apparently WOW didnt think they went with our package. It was a HUGE ordeal with a long wait time. We were not treated very nice.

This place is shameful. None of the animals get access to fresh air or sunlight. They eat pellets and are confined to tiny enclosures. The otters were shaking and the black bear was curled up in a ball scared out of his wits. They don't have adequate care or facilities available and the animals are clearly suffering. If you care about animals at all, you will be writing to the local Humane Society after seeing this. It's shameful and disgusting. Don't support this.

You ran an ad last night. I am offended by Tucker Carlson and his anti-Americanism. Why does your company support him?? I will no longer buy your products and encourage others to do the same until his divisiveness stops!

Your Champion membership will only allow you to add your children or grandchildren. There are many couples without children, this is very disappointing. I have nieces that I wanted to add to a membership, but I was told no exceptions! I will not be visiting!!
