SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium Entrance Ticket

Lots of sharks, fun fish and sting rays. Of note when u reserve a time that really the time you go in. There are rotating information screens about the fish outside of each tank, wish there were more than one at each tank. It takes a while to get through each slide.

Nice places

Sydney Attractions Pass: SEA LIFE Aquarium, Sydney Tower Eye, WILD LIFE Zoo and Madame Tussauds

I was happy I decided to get the multi-pass as it is cheaper and saved time by not having to queue up. We visited SeaLife (compulsory first stop that you MUST book so plan ahead for the SeaLife stop), Madame T and Sydney Tower Eye as we had just 3 days in Sydney. It was sufficient as there is a lot to see in Sydney that aren't attractions.

A great educational and emersive experience

SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium Entrance Ticket

A great immersive experience full of colourful sea life. Because of the allocated time-slots, it never felt too crowded and we didn’t feel rushed going between exhibits.

Great experience to see sea and wild life animal up close
