We enjoyed the aquarium but it was very crowded. It was very hot so I guess a lot of people we just getting out of the sun. Very nice inside. Lots of exhibits. We enjoyed seeing the sharks.

Every time that we go to NOLA we make sure that we go to the aquarium. It's well appointed and very entertaining. Besides fish they do have some amphibians and reptiles. The Poison Dart Frogs are as colorful as anything that exists in nature.

I was disappointed on our recent trip to New Orleans. The aquarium seemed a bit old and dingy. Having been to the Monterey Bay aquarium I guess I am spoiled.

Been to lots of aquariums & just love this one. Layout is good although don't miss the parakeets through the food court. Pay for the food sticks. Try to catch an otter feeding & see them break crab shells on the enclosure glass.

Excellent bayou exhibit. Well thought out, spacious. Feeding show/discussion was fascinating. Wonderful aquarium.

The aquarium admission price was very impressive as a 3 for one package that gave me additional access to the Zoo and Insectarium with a bonus viewing at the IMAX. The exhibits were well sectionalized and presented. The facility felt new and clean. There were ample gift shops and a food court plus ample restrooms. There is something for everyone... More

Really enjoyed the different animals of the sea and in some cases land. I found the amazon rainforest to be really interesting. The penguins were very entertaining during their feedings. There was a sea otter who was active as well. Saw a huge white alligator and a large eal. Interesting fish including parahnas, catfish, hammerheads, clown fish. Could easily spend... More
