I visited the National Aquarium when two of my three children were still small. I thought the live exhibits were awesome, but it was hard to enjoy chasing a two and a half year old and carrying a 6 month old! Stollers are... (more)

If you're visiting the area or live in the area, the aquarium is a great place to spend an afternoon. While most aquariums are pretty similar, the national aquarium in Baltimore offers dolphin shows and has areas that... (more)

We love to visit this aquarium. We drive 3 hours to get there. The whole family enjoys it, young and old. It can be very expensive if you have a lot of children, but worth it if you've never been there before. They have a... (more)

While this isn't my absolute favorite aquarium (Long Beach), it is definitely in the top five. The displays could be a little bit larger in a few areas and the biggest complaint I had is that many of their attractions... (more)

I've gone here a number of times during my lifetime, and I always enjoy it. Oddly enough, the aquatic displays are not the ones that I remember the most -- the amphibious displays and the rain forest on the roof... (more)

When we used to live in Baltimore we had yearly passes for the Aquarium. I like to look at fish sure but this place was incredible. I could spend all day just looking at the different fish. I loved the shark tank! IT was... (more)

The Baltimore Aquarium, one of the showpieces of the waterfront Harborplace overhaul, is spacious, dark, cool and interesting. Part of the interior is shaped into a giant spiral, sort of like the Guggenheim Museum... (more)

Waste of $22.00. I went to this aquarium with my daughter, who is a senior biology major. We've been to many aquariums around the world. This has to be one of the worst. Over crowded, murky tanks, hot, narrow... (more)

The Baltimore Aquarium is one of the premiere aquariums in the area. It is everything one would expect with an area that is so extricably tied to the harbor and the bay with its multistoried shark viewing area and full... (more)

It's overwhelming once you walk in. There's an escalator that sweeps up over the pool of stingrays. It's a little scary when you'r e young, but cool none the less. You have the opportunity to touch some of the aquatic... (more)

Overpriced and crowded. You really could not get near the exhibits and I did not think it was all that great to begin with. I felt like I was herded through like cattle. The staff was not helpful either and parking is a... (more)
