Nice little side trip to being in Vegas, great for the kids and families. Love the "Indiana Jones" feel of the place, lots of fun and not too pricey for Vegas.

This is a nice small aquarium. It has little hand sets that you type a number into and it tells you all about the animals you are looking at. Fun and interactive. My 7 year old daughter loves it! We have been about 3 times now! Not bad for an aquarium in a casino. Definately not huge, this is not Sea World! But, fun if you are looking to kill a couple hours indoors.

Nothing new to see here and not very clean. The flow of the layout is off, with lots of congestion occurring early in the tour. The audio tour headset was great and my 4 and 6 year old enjoyed that. Our favorite exhibit was the jellyfish. Otherwise, this is not an impressive aquarium.

We visited the shark reef at mandalay bay during a vegas trip about 4 years ago. Mandalay Bay is original - with the odd body art on the walls, the huge beach-like pool, the younger restaurants. We were just surprised at how much it cost to see the exhibit (whatever happened to vegas being cheap?). But they have lots of sealife to view and some cool sharks. I am just glad I didnt have a big family to pay for.
There are lot of free things to see and do in vegas that are more worthwhile, like the bellagio fountains, the venetian gondola and shops, the caesar's forum, and the paris eiffel tower. Plus, the trek down to mandalay can consume a lot of time.
