I find the rainforest part was quite special as compared to the typical aquaria. It is kinda fun to just walk through the 'small' rainforest and the rest of the aquaria is just alright? More

If you happen to be close and have an hour or two to kill, sure then why not pay them a visit but to be honest there's nothing much to see here and during the summer vacation period this place is usually very crowded! More

Fantastic venue for children and adults they have recreated a wonderful rainforest environment with all the sights, sounds and smells. They have a wide variety of fish and amphibians, my favourite was the poison arrow frog. More

The museum was extremely small. Nice but small. We finished it within 45 minutes. It is no so cheap though for adults to go in, so if you have small children and want some relaxing enviroments, it s a very good place to spend some time and rest (they have good meals inside), amongst all those sounds of water and...

The museum is very small - in case you have been in such aquariums before. Maybe in summer there are more things to do and fishes to explore outside, but the interior has only 3 sections. Small children enjoy the glass tunnel they can crawl in, older children like the stepping down the drainage hole - but overall we spent... More

You will enjoy a couple of hours here especially if you enjoy nature and the environment. They have recreated a tropical rainforest with good sound and lighting effects, a Swedish mountain stream and pool environment, and, of course, various aquaria containing fascinating fish and other sea life from around the world. There are a number of other attractions in the... More

Me and my husband enjoyed our visit to Aquaria Water Museum. even tough we didn't have children with us. This is a great family attraction. Quite little but nice. It took us only an hour to see all so we had time for shopping too at Stockholms Old City nearby. More

Stockholm, Swedens Aquaria Water Museum is an educational and unusual feast for the senses. See, beautiful fish and exhibits in three artificial enviornments (the rainforest, tropical sea's and nordic waters). Smell, the floral scent of the rainforest and the damage of toxic water in a sewer. Touch, the mugginess on your skin in the rainforest and the dampness of the... More

I'm not normally the kind of person who likes aquariums - but this one was incredible. My firend and I took her 2 kids & we had a blast. When you first walk in there is just so much that catches your eye! My favourite part was the pool that was in the middle of one of the rooms which... More
