Traveler reviews

  • Mara Kalat

    ★★★★★8 months ago

    We deliberated whether to get the combo ticket for the aquarium and the zoo or just the aquarium ticket and were not disappointed by just the aquarium. It's a whole big tropical enclosure with lemurs, mongooses, various lizards, etc. and THEN also a big aquarium with many gorgeous, huge tanks. Even before getting to the giant shark tank. A highlight of our trip to Hamburg and absolutely recommended.
