Lost World Aquarium Atlantis Dubai Tour

Over-rated. We visited just a few weeks before it closed for upgrades. It needs it. Definitely glazed online - not as big or magnificent as it is made out to be. Young children would probably enjoy it but for 2 adults and a 15 year old it was actually a little boring. We literally asked staff where to go next to finish seeing everything when we walked into the gift shop at the end.

We were lucky enough to have the aquarium included in our stay at the Atlantis. Was perfect meandering our way through and marvelling at the creatures of the deep before our dinner in the evening. It was quite quiet and we had the chance to speak with some of the super knowledgeable staff, they were really engaging and clearly very passionate about their work. For me the highlight was the jelly fish display, which was beautifully lit - it was totally surreal being amongst the sea life down there!

Fabulous aquarium inside Atlantis The Palm. So many beautiful and fascination creatures to experience. Some a bit scary as well. Can really recommend a visit!

Disappointing Experience – Not Worth the Price I recently visited The Lost Chambers Aquarium at Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai with my parents and my 11-month-old daughter. I paid for 3 adult tickets (baby was free), expecting a worthwhile experience – but sadly, it was very underwhelming. We were done walking through the entire aquarium in just 10-15 minutes. The exhibits were nice, but honestly, you can get a better view of the aquarium for free from the outside areas of the hotel, which makes the paid entry feel like a waste. The real issue came when my daughter needed a diaper change. I was shocked to learn they don’t have proper baby-changing facilities inside. A staff member at the exit area told us to go outside the aquarium to change her. But when we returned, the lady at the entrance refused to let us back in – despite the fact that we had just been told we could re-enter. She did eventually anyway after a few discussion about it. This shows a clear lack of communication between staff and left us feeling frustrated and disappointed. For a venue like Atlantis that caters to families and charges premium prices, I expected far better service and facilities. I wouldn’t recommend this experience – especially if you’re visiting with a baby or expecting a long, enriching aquarium visit. Definitely not worth the price.

I visited The Lost Chambers Aquarium while staying at Atlantis The Aquaruim entry is free for hotel guests. Since it gets quite crowded during the day, I went in the evening and it was much quieter and more enjoyable. But I missed the feeding sessions held daily at 10:30am and 3:30pm, which was a bit disappointing. Just a heads up : flash photography is not allowed inside. The aquarium is filled with fascinating marine life and I think children would absolutely love it. I recommend it for families with kids. There's also a combo ticket available with Aquaventure Waterpark, so visiting both in one day makes for a fun and well spent outing.
