The adventure at The Dallas World Aquarium begins at the top of the rainforest exhibit, where exotic birds, such as Cocks-of-the-rock and many species of toucans, can be seen. Lounging around are Two-toed and Three-toed sloths. Endangered animals, such as Orinoco crocodiles, Giant river otters, Antillean manatees and several species of monkeys are part of the many conservation projects. The aquarium portion displays interesting marine life, including Japanese crabs, jellyfish, Leafy, Weedy and Ribbon seadragons. Black-footed and Blue penguins can be seen swimming as guests enjoy the outdoor South Africa exhibit. Sharks, rays and sawfish are only a few of the fish living in the Mundo Maya cenote. Safe from Neotropical eagles, are euphonias, tanagers and hummingbirds. Reptiles and amphibians, both of significance to the Maya culture, can be seen throughout the exhibit.The adventure at The Dallas World Aquarium begins at the top of the rainforest exhibit, where exotic birds, such as Cocks-of-the-rock and many species of toucans, can be seen.

overpriced

Exhibits aren't easily viewed, species are poorly explained, can't accomodate large crowds, not viewer friendly.

Best of Natural World Attractions in North Texas

Not your typical aquarium; set in a rainforest environment, it walks the user through several ecosytems that contain different types of monkeys, birds, aquatic mammals (manatees), insects, and reptiles. Child friendly, very clean and worth the price. Highly recommend!

Beautiful settings, exotic animals

Great tropical rain forest. Kids on our field trip loved the shark tunnel, manatees and penguins. Narrow pathways not good for big strollers. It was packed with families during spring break, but great during summer vacation. No backpacks or food can be brought in.

For what you pay, very good

It is cheap to get in. You get a pretty good look at exotic aquatic animals from around the world. If you're in the area, worth heading to.

Great place to spend an afternoon. Many different exhibits.

This is a good place to bring kids and adults. You can dine in the cafe as well as have special events (group meetings, parties).
