It looks small near the size of the resort. There are dolphin shows every half hour. You have the option of taking a photo with the dolphin, but it does not pay. There are instructors to answer questions, they are very helpful and attentive. There are white lions and tigers and a really cool souvenir shop with average prices. Admission is paid.

Animal slavery for the entertainment of few brainless spectators seems an unnecessary cruelty and I was very surprised to find it in such an otherwise splendid hotel Unfortunately my ethics will deter me from staying there in the future; the world is thankfully changing, in Europe and Canada more countries than ever are banning animal circuses and SeaWorld is closing down most of their cruelty parks
Animal cruelty! If you have a spark of empathy, do not visit it! Dolphins have lost nothing in the desert in a swimming pool !!! The tigers are so poor, they only hope for their salvation! This plant is perverted and should be closed immediately (!!!). Please do not support this animal cruelty! Imagine having to swim in a swimming pool all day, even though you should be in the ocean. Or you are stuck in too small cages.
Siegfried and Roy's vision of retirement for their performance animals is sad and just a retail trap for families. Buy the video, perhaps visit the San Diego or Philadelphia Zoos.
Worth every penny. Went there for the first with children and we loved it. It was amazing to watch the dolphins train, it amazes me how smart they are. They workers were all very polite and friendly. Due to the pandemic we were limited to some attractions but it is till worth every penny.
Our son had a school field trip last week. I would have given 5 stars except when we got off the school bus our son needed to use the restroom. The woman waiting to take us in the gate told me she could not let us in quite yet. That there was tigers running around. I find this hard to believe. Our son has Autism and sometimes can not hold it for long. He lets me or someone know he needs to go and that means we need to go. I wasn t going to stand there and let our son wet his pants. I told her if you don t let us in we are going to use the bushes. She said go ahead with an attitude! I was shocked. These are 1st graders. I m just glad I was there with him. Other than that it was a great field trip. The dolphins are amazing along with the tigers. The place was very clean and the staff was very nice except for the one woman. I didn t get the chance to get her name be cause I was furious. I wasn t the only mother on the trip who thought a bathroom break right away would have been a great idea for the kids. I understand they are probably on a strict time limit for the tours. But they need to remember these are just kids. I recommend going still. It was an overall great day for the class.
It was pricey for what we saw. I think we were there an hour and only because it was 104 degrees outside and we stepped in the shops to cool off. No time schedule for any dolphin shows so all we saw were dolphins swimming around their pool which is the same for the underwater observation. The tigers and lions were few and of course all sleeping. Maybe if you really love dolphins or have never seen one you might like this park but bring your wallet!
Give some time when buying tickets from third party sites before visiting because it may not show up on their system when you get there. Bought one hour in advance and wasn't able to get in but a helpful employee was willing to help us out. Kids enjoyed the dolphins a lot. Secret garden was cool but felt bad for the bengal tiger that seemed a little agitated or going a little crazy with the endless loop of Christmas music.
From the wonder of magicians a tiger refuge that just draws you in to the wonder of the wild. A live Dolphin experience to touch the senses and learn of their awesomeness.
The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable in their field. You get to see the bottlenose dolphins interact with their trainers nearly every hour. It is a great place for everyone. It is also one of the few places on the Las Vegas Strip where you can relax and get away from the constant sensory overload that is the Vegas Strip. (Another being the wildlife area at the Flamingo resort.)
Felt the price is too much for just 3 animals couldn t see the lion as it was sleeping . However dolphins show is really good. But need to Enquire about the timings .
The expectation was much higher than what we saw. You could finish the "tour" in twenty minutes or so; the facility is quite small and lacks the wow factor. I recommend it if you just want to see some big cats lounging and dolphins going through their training exercises.
Not great for the full price. Might be okay as a part of MGM s 3-for-$57 package or at a discount. Dolphins were active and entertaining and by far the best part- we were lucky enough to see a very playful 6-month old calf. Dolphins were curious and would swim very near the edge of the pools and glass of the underwater sections. Overall, though, the attraction is very small and sparsely populated: outside of the dolphins there was one lion, one leopard, and two white tigers. Their exhibits were pretty and clean but not very spacious. The tigers, unfortunately, were both elderly and very clearly showing their age- on the thinner side and stiff and coats not as smooth and clean as a younger animal. I m not going to say this was a fault in their care as I don t know what goes on behind the scenes, and it likely is simply due to advanced years, but it was a bit sad to see. I will say though that 3 out of 4 big cats being up and about is a better ratio than I ve experienced at most zoos. Staff seemed friendly and readily available for questions.
I enjoyed it. I absolutely love tigers and lions so I was very excited to see them. The majority of the afternoon they are sleeping. Around 5pm they become active and walk around as that is their feeding time. One issue I did not like was the enclosement for the cheetah and jaguar (may have been two cheetahs). They were extremely small, the men's bathroom facility there was larger. Those are animals that love to and need to run but they were in such a small place. The dolphin exhibit was nice. It seemed a little small but they are far from neglected. I really liked the fact that the dolphins will swim right up to you at the edge and you can pretty much reach out and touch them almost. Overall, well worth it and very tempting to purchase annual pass.
Ive been living in Vegas for over 20 years and it always slips my mind about one of the last remaining things to do as a family here in Vegas. The habitat is beautiful. Dolphins are taken care of got a chance to feed them. Definitely an experience without having to drive to the beach.
Please do not visit. The cages are much too small, the dolphins have mini basins. I was totally shocked after the visit and just sad. I was annoyed with myself for supporting something like that.
This place would be a 3 star rating except for the dolphin show. The tigers and other land based animals are neat creatures of course but there wasn't a lot of exhibits and they were all fairly small and almost depressing in the desert heat. Could have just been the time of day. The dolphin show however was pretty cool to watch and I found it particularly fun that I was able to stand only a couple of feet away from the edge of the pool where the trainers were standing with their dolphins to give them commands. They have a "be a trainer for a day" experience which is very expensive but I imagine that if you really love dolphins it would be worth the money for a once in a lifetime experience.
The best place ever....mad my dream happened and became dolphin trainer for a day...best experience ever...dolphins and all people there are so lovely...loved it
Quite expensive for what felt like such a short time experience. I didn t like that the animals looked distressed even though trainers/experts walking around assured us differently. If you re a person that doesn t like to see animals suffer in cages, this isn t for you.
The underwater. Viewing area is good place to beat the heat and you can really see the dolphins. The tigers all looked healthy and they all had waterfalls to help cool off
This is a really great family activity. Get to see the dolphins being trained and the tigers from the Siegfried & Roy show. One of the best attractions I have been to in Las Vegas.
Decent price for what you get to see. The dolphin training session was awesome to see and probably worth the price of the ticket alone, we really enjoyed it. The tigers had nice enclosures and all the animals seemed very well looked after
Really enjoyed the walk through. It's not huge, great place to go if you have children(we don't) but it is very child friendly. Everyone is helpful and friendly.
You can find great deals to save on this attraction, and it's well worth it! A little break from the Vegas strip! They have summer beautiful cats here, asking with dolphins!!
Small, but very green, clean and fresh. Also for $50, to touch a dolphin and get two free pictures, plus a digital photo sent to your email....once in a lifetime experience and you dinnae have to worry about recording it.
You do get a good opportunity to get very close to the dolphins here. My kids really enjoyed seeing them swimming around in the underwater viewing area as well as during the training sessions. When we were there most of the animals were napping but they were still rather impressive sights to see. It is rather small for what they charge happily children are free.
Great experience! The staff were highly informative about all of the animals and very friendly. The dolphins and white tigers were amazing! Great place to go and just relax for awhile when your on the strip. Highly recommend!
