Geoff WhiteheadAugust 21, 2012Most overrated and overpriced site I have been to in the last decade! Save your time and $$$ by not attending!
Travis McLainMay 2, 2011Disappointing. Georgia Aquarium is so much better...maybe I just got spoiled having lived next to it...but Shedding doesn't come close.
Roberto Mateos MayoMarch 4, 2017Recomendable comprar el Citypass y así visitar todo lo mejor de Chicago y sobretodo este Acuario que es una maravilla, muy bueno el show de delfines.Upvoted Dec 30, 2024
Manolo EncisoMarch 13, 20153 paquetes, escoge el que se adapte a lo que quieres. El de 8 dlls es para ver una parte del acuario, y el de 29 y 35 ver los delfines, pingüinos, belugas. Afuera hay buenas vistas para fotos
Mariana FilizolaMay 1, 2018O aquário é maravilhoso para todas as idades. Super bem cuidado. Vale muito a pena o passeio...
Karla MuciñoDecember 1, 2016Muy padre para todas las edades, hay área de juegos para los peques de 1-3 años, y puedes tocar algunas especies. El show en vivo cuesta 2 dólares y las películas 4D pues solo si están incluidas
SerchMarch 12, 2019Un excelente lugar para conocer. Muy bien cuidado y pensado para toda la familia. Lo único que mejoraría es el área de shows que es demasiado pequeña
P Chuy OrtegaNovember 1, 2014Cierran a las 5 pm, así que tomar tiempo es importante. Vale la pena observar cada especie y dejarse sorprender por toda la Creación de Dios.
Ishel David Montes RochaDecember 7, 2016Simplemente genial!!! Hay dos restaurantes para lunch, el que está junto al delfinario tiene variedad: hamburguesas, ensaladas y pizzas.
Arturo LunaAugust 20, 2016Si llevas talonario City Pass, chequea bien los horarios de las películas a las que tienes derecho para que planees bien tu visita.
Nasty TrumpSeptember 20, 2014Берите билет с доплатой,чтобы потрогать пингвинов или скатов-не пожалеете!
Oscar PadillaOctober 28, 2015Impresionante ver a los tiburones y tocar a algunos peces no dejes de acudir si visitas Chicago.
Paula Pérez MedinaSeptember 13, 2014Recomendadisimo. Especies de peces y reptiles que nisiquiera sabias que existia
Jovanna LoyolaJanuary 14, 2017No tiene nada sensacional, ve para "conocer" el estanque del centro es lo mejorcito.

"We've been here 4.5 hours and barely scratched the surface. An absolutely excellent museum - probably the best I've been to. Only the Newseum in DC comes close. Don't miss this if you are in Chicago"
Kristopher Weiss - 8.7
"Beautiful views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. Fun shops to check out. A bit touristy, but worth a trip if you're visiting Chicago."
Greg Wilcox - 8.9
"Wow Bao has a kiosk here around section 110, Baos are great & probably one of the healthiest foods here They also were giving away single Baos early, or at least gave us one."
