Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada is one of Toronto’s hottest
tourist attractions. It is impossible not to visit this amazing place while
living in Toronto. So, I have planned on visiting the Aquarium to check off my
bucket wish list.
Ripley’s Aquarium has an impressive 35,000 square feet of
space, a 315 foot viewing tunnel, a moving walkway through dangerous lagoon and
over 450 species of sea and fresh water creatures. We were very excited to see
all these. I have purchased the City Pass in advance to visit all the Toronto’s
incredible attractions. The link for the tickets to the Ripley’s Aquarium is https://www.ripleyaquariums.com/canada/tickets/. With the city pass we had the advantage of skipping the huge line to the
exhibit.
Since Ripley’s Aquarium and the CN tower are at the same
place so we had plan of visiting them on the same day. But I would suggest you
to do it separately as both have so much activities which would easily take you
the whole day.
The aquarium has many galleries like the rainbow reef,
dangerous lagoon- where you could see the Shark up close, ray bay, planet
jellies and so much more. We were mesmerized at the long viewing tunnel seeing
the shark swimming above your head. Large ray fish, sword fish and the turtles
were some of the creatures to watch for.

| Jelly fish |
The Jelly fish exhibit was very captivating. I stood stand
still there for sometimes so amazed by the purple color at the dark space.
There is a sitting space to see the exhibition so give here sometime to fully
experience the colorful jelly fish exhibition.
At the end of the
tunnel there is a children’s playing place and a pipe like area where you can
touch baby sting rays, shrimps, and even sharks. I was so afraid to touch them
but at the end it was so cool.
We left the place happy face fully contented at eager come
back again. It would take you easily 2.5 to 3.5 hours. So, I suggest you to
plan in advance and buy the tickets online of the one that best suites you.
That’s all for today. Happy travelling everyone.
