November 2024I've always loved coming here, please note it's always cheaper to book online rather than at the aquarium itself. Staff on entry weren't very chatty or enthusiastic, however the staff inside the aquarium, especially the staff member at the area where you can touch certain things was incredible. The aquarium has calming music played throughout and lots to see, it takes at least an hour to walk through and see everything, we went in at 12:15 on a weekday and it wasn't too busy, we were also lucky enough to see the penguins being fed. I'll definitely look forward to my next visit here.

October 2024An impressive tour, it was wonderful. The aquarium is very well looked after, with a wide variety of species. It can take about an hour and a half to see the entire aquarium, and there weren't many people there. There was a giant turtle, the size I've never seen in my life, it was impressive. I highly recommend the visit.

November 2024Booked in advanced and booked time slot of 11am on a Friday. Got to venue and walked straight in, no queues, very good. Not a huge crowd of people inside at that time in the morning, so a good time to book. I haven't been here for quite a few years and hoped there might be some new exhibits, but I don't think there are. We got round in a little over 1hr and saw all tanks. Penguin tank should really be bigger for these little guys. Also the jelly fish tanks are interesting. Overall if you are interested in aquariums and aquatic habitats and want something to do for an hour or two then pay the London Aquarium a visit.

October 2024It a was a fun few hours seeing all the animals and learning some fun facts. I went on a weekend and there was no queue at the time we had booked in advance so this may have made it easier if there was a queue. There were a lot of animals and fish to see and we even got to watch the penguins get fed which was cute. The staff were nice. I would probably recommend maybe going on a weekday if you aren’t going with children I went on the weekend and it was quite busy inside so maybe it’s quieter on a weekday.

August 2024We visited during the week as a large group. It was a lot bigger than we expected. We spent about 3 hours here, having a good look at the fish. They look well cared for and have plenty of room. There were a couple of stalls on the way round offering face paints, glitter tattoos and braids. Unfortunately the little drink shop was closed. The site is very warm and humid. I imagine as there's no windows, lots of visitors and no doubt the tanks need to be kept at a certain temperature. We found the heat a bit uncomfortable at times so we'd recommend taking enough to drink. The vending machines were out of action as well. There were quite a few penny press machines dotted about that you could only pay by card with. They were a bit temperamental. The gift shop seemed reasonably priced, not over the top like some attraction gift shops. Overall it was a lovely day out, we even got to see a lot of baby seahorses. They also offer a photo on the way round that you can purchase when you exit. A great memory of the day
