Aquarium of the Americas Reviews

A awesome aquarium with lots to see. I wish It was just a little bigger.

One of the best aquariums to check out in the country. So much to see so get in early. Also catch a 3D movie. Great for a rainy day in New Orleans. Recommend for all families and kids to experience this amazing aquarium.

The aquarium was nice! There were no sting rays you could pet (covid) and some of the exhibits were closed down (the macaws were gone and renovations were being done) but good for small children

Really nice aquarium, lots to see. Kinda pricey but I found a website and was able to save some money on tickets.

Clean place, if you have seen 1 aquarium you have seen them all

Very good museography, interesting all the species presented, especially the white crocodile of the region. Recommendable.

Nice aquarium, but with the name Audubon, I was expecting a little more.

Very cool! We loved the shark tanks and the see through tunnels.

Awesome kids adventure. Pet stingrays and parakeets. Very educational.

A nice aquarium with easy access with the street cars.

The Audubon aquarium was amazing but the parking was 10 dollars an hour which is insane and made it hard to enjoy looking at everything.

Beautiful, relaxing and enjoyable. I loved watching the penguins at feeding time. The scuba diver in the huge tank was interesting to see. Another gem in New Orleans.

I was very impressed by this Aquarium. Rates a 10 in my families book

Fantastic aquarium!! Highly recommend feeding the stingrays!

Great place to bring little ones on a rainy day. Our 18 month old was in his element. Plenty of open, safe space for him to roam without us having to worry. So much for him to see and play with. Expensive, but worth it. Kids under 2 are free.

Beautiful and amazing experience. This is a nice family friendly place to visit with hands on interactive experience with some of the local aquatic animals. This place is a must to visit when in New Orleans and is also in a great location to other attractions.

The aquarium was nice and interesting but it only takes about an hour and a half to go all the way through it. With the prices they charge for tickets you would expect to see more. You also have to pay $10.00 an hour for parking and you have to walk a good ways to get there. Nothing to walk under when it's pouring down rain. We drove from Hattiesburg Ms to NOLA, thank goodness the aquarium wasn't the only reason we went.

A short walk from the quarter, is a world class aquarium. You can spend several hours looking through all the exhibits. Well curated and maintained great for children and/or adults.

Has added many new things been going since I was kid now almost 30 still love it

Too expensive and was short. Several tanks were big butt with a small fish in it. I don't get the hawk sitting inside. Was too crowded but I know that's normal for those type of places.

Wonderful exhibits, kind staff. Great place for reasonable price!

Fun and entertaining place for the whole family. We love it.

pretty good aquarium i would recommend checking it out

Love the place it's still the same as a child . However I do miss the bird experience wish they could work it out during covid.

This place need updating bad. Not worth the admission price

Good place to spend an afternoon with the grandkids

Parking is a bit expensive ...but so worth a family outting

Cool place to hang out with kids for an afternoon, especially on a rainy day.

Such a great experience and tons of fun for the entire family!

Its kinda neat but they don't have a great selection and its over crowded. It is way too expensive for what it is and it is hot throughout most of the building. I won't go again.

It's a nice place to go look at all the exhibits they have but don't believe it was worth a 29.95 entry fee.

Aquariums were not clean. Disappointed in quality of exhibits

Very small. Need a larger variety of fish. Too expensive not to have a guide to make the experience better.

It's a great place to visit and spend half of your day in.

So busy when we went seemed like every baby and toddler was screaming

Wonderful aquarium with lots to do and see. Animals appear happy and the staff is very friendly. The price for non- members is crazy high, so get ready to drop some $ if you have more than two people.

Always amazing. The final aquarium is beautiful and I've sat watching it for hours.

Went with my brother, son, aunt, and friends. Such a fun place and a great first aquarium for my son.

Very nice and enjoyed the areas geared towards Louisiana, glad to see those items on display for all to see. Nice place.

Nice but small Aquarium - Tix includes a documentary on the giant screen

Even before working here i still love the Audubon experience

I love going here , beautiful aquatic life and very interesting, a great place to bring kids. Very clean a nice exhibits

Lots of great exhibits and friendly, knowledgeable staff to answer questions.

If you're in a great City of New Orleans the aquarium is the best place to go Gray Place

Great for a family outing, if it's not too crowded!

We had a great time...my grandson who is 6 wanted to go back the next week.

This place is great fun for the whole family. The staff is friendly and they are nice to be around. My favorite part was the sculptures made out of trash from the ocean which really allows the viewers to see the effects of pollution.

This place is awesome. Two guides in particular, were amazingly knowledgeable. You can literally spend your entire time there in the aviary section. Make sure to visit the stingrays as well. New Orleans residents get free admission on certain Wednesdays, a great day to bring young kids, as it isn't as busy as weekends.

Aquarium is really nice. However the price is super super high! I would recommend lowering the price of food, lowering the price of the pictures, and really why is the gift store pricing so high! Kids loved the visit but the price inside is ridiculous

First the only reason I gave 2 stars is because out of all of the staff we met 3 were nice. We walked in a little after 12pm and the female checking online stubs was the rudest individual in the entire place. They certainly take their job and position for granted. Be sure you request a map because we had no clue where to go or where anything was due to no map. The aquarium was ok.the stingray petting was our favorite part. I appreciate the nice people such as the young lady offering the picture packages be sure to hold your hand out during pics.:)
