Downtown Aquarium

The Downtown Aquarium is a great tourist attraction in Denver for all ages, but it is definitely geared towards younger kids. The tickets are pretty pricey but the gift shop has some of the lowest prices I have ever seen at a tourist attraction. All of the staff there are very friendly and give off the vibe to guests that they really enjoy being there. I personally went on Halloween and while they had a few activities, the aquarium was still prioritized by the management. I was overall satisfied with my visit and would recommend it to a friend.

We decided to check out the Aquarium while staying in Denver - it was the restaurant that actually drew us in. We were seated at a table that was further back from the aquariums- the place was almost empty but alas, everything available by the glass was taken. I observed another couple getting ready to leave and asked our waitress if we could move to that table. She told me we could. I watched her clear the table, but she never looked up at us. After several minutes, a family came in and occupied the table that was previously promised to us. I think the waitress felt uncomfortable with the turn of events and barely came by our table afterwards to refill drinks. Aside from that, the food was really good, the scenery, albeit from a distance for us was nice (and I'm sure is magical for anyone lucky to get a lotto seat by the glass). The aquarium inside is clean and pretty. I was surprised there was a tiger exhibit inside with a Tiger who was awake and easy to observe. At the end of the exhibit, you could interact with stingrays. I also enjoyed the shark tunnel and glass floor port holes where sharks swam under. If you're looking to kill a few hours with grace - this is a good place to start.

So beautiful, staff was very nice, pretty big aquarium !

Today was pretty awesome! I got to see a lot of fish, and stuff like tigers, otters and even a tarantula! I love tarantulas and that made my day! Its Halloween so that made it even better. I also got a geode and a mine bag so i can get more crystals. Would go over and over again :3

Definitely smaller in size only took us an hour to walk through and really enjoy it . But also definitely worth it! From the tigers, to the otter, the sharks , and so much more! One of my favorite things is that the Denver aquarium has over others is the fact they have multiple larger tanks that you can enjoy viewing, where as most aquariums have one maybe two.
