    If you are planning a trip to Toronto, put Ripley's Aquarium at the top of your list. We made this…read moreour very first stop after breakfast, and even though we arrived early, it was already buzzing with people and honestly, I totally see why. The experience was phenomenal. Absolutely immersive. The massive tanks showing how communities of fish live together are impressive, but the Dangerous Lagoon is the crown jewel. There is a slow-moving treadmill through the tunnel pro tip: just stay on it and look up. Seeing the sharks and rays glide over you is a core memory. Staff & Service: Top-notch. The staff is not only friendly but incredibly knowledgeable. They are very proactive about animal welfare, constantly reminding the crowd to turn off their flashes to protect the creatures. Educational Value: We caught two of the diver shows where they feed the animals. It's amazing to hear them talk about sustainability and how our daily decisions impact these animals' lives for years to come. Crowd: It gets crowded fast! Even as early birds, we weren't alone. However, the layout is so well-organized that the flow of people keeps moving. Food & Amenities: After the shark tunnel, there's a convenient coffee shop and washrooms located in the basement. It's the perfect spot to take a breather. Transportation: Location couldn't be better. It's incredibly accessible you can easily walk if you're downtown, or take the bus/train (TTC) to Union Station. It's right in the heart of the action. Cost: Definitely worth the price of admission for the quality of the exhibits and the message of conservation they share. I got my pass with Citypass. Bottom Line: Whether you are a solo traveler or with a group, this is a 10/10 experience. Don't forget to skip the flash and enjoy the view

    This one-star is ONLY for the ticketing experience via Get Your Guide…read more I had a frustrating experience with ticketing that other visitors should be aware of. I purchased tickets through GetYourGuide under the assumption that they were standard aquarium admission. However, when we arrived, we were informed that the tickets were actually for a "Sharks After Dark" event. This distinction was not clearly or prominently disclosed during the booking process--it was buried in a way that an average customer could easily miss. The staff member scanning our tickets immediately recognized the issue and mentioned that this confusion happens frequently. That was surprising and concerning, as it suggests this is a known, ongoing problem that has not been addressed. What made the situation more frustrating was the lack of accountability. GetYourGuide directed us to the aquarium for resolution, while the aquarium redirected us back to GetYourGuide. This back-and-forth left us without a clear path to resolve the issue. Overall, this reflects poorly on both the ticketing platform and the aquarium. Clear communication and transparency are essential, especially when selling different types of admission. I recommend double-checking ticket details carefully before purchasing, and I hope both parties improve this process to prevent similar experiences for others. Make sure to buy the right ticket!

    Beautiful large, bright indoor playground with so many activities! There are prebooked time slots…read morefor 1-2 hr visits. There was a lego area, mini market, large play structure, mini dentist and xray area, interactive wall, 2 simulation driving games, ball pit, construction site and a dress up area! Plenty of parking. Some snacks and drinks available for purchase inside. Downside: It was pretty pricey compared to others of its kind. Staff were friendly. There are little cubbies available for shoes and a rack for coats.

    I've drove by this place a few times before. It's conveniently located in the plaza next to First…read moreMarkham Place. I'm glad they opened up a new indoor playground uptown as there's not many in the area, you would need to make your way to the west like Vaughan area. So my friend and I decided to bring our kids here on a P.A day. We booked the admission and did the waivers online. They have various time slots for you to choose from when you book the tickets online. The duration is 2 hours of play for $19.99+taxes, it includes one adult entry. We booked it for 11:30pm - 1:30pm. As you can imagine it was pretty busy since it was a P.A day. The playground wasn't that big, there's a few party rooms. They have various things for kids to do. One downside is they only had two video game stations. Kids had to line up and wait for their turn, timing can be tight since there's only 2 hours of playtime unless you pay extra to extend it. This place is fairly new so it's clean and well maintained. They don't allow outside food and drinks but I've seen some people with it, perhaps they had found a way to sneak it in. They have snacks and drinks that you can purchase. I looked into their party packages and in my opinion I think it's overly priced, it's not worth it. Bringing kids here once in a while to play is still okay in terms of one time admission fees but not with their passes or party packages.
