Pre-purchased ticket from from Experience Oz has made things easy to enter at the attraction.

Easy check-in at the entrance with pre purchased ticket, it was a weekday so not much of rush and easy to see all things and exit the attraction. I recommend buying tickets in advance from Experience Oz and travelling to any ticketed attractions. Big thank you for the best deals.

Excellent attraction destination to visit in the Sydney CBD!

Very good attraction place to visit with lots of varieties of fish and water creatures! Friendly staffs. Love to do Penguin boat trip adventure! Lots of sharks and varieties of them. Unfortunately, there is not much place to click the photos due to darkness but worth it to enjoy without phones!

There were some renovations happening so the entrance was slightly confusing. However, the staff was cooperative and guided well.

Children were excited to see sharks in the tunnel and spent more than five minutes in the shark area. The glowing sea was great fun as kids at that point started to get tired and bored so it has given extra energy to them. They jumped, ran and danced in that place. For the whole family fun, penguin expedition was the best. We had a chance to do it twice luckily. The window view for penguins was amazing too. Jellyfish were liked by many viewers and the photos were a hit among my friends and family.
