Absolutely loved the penguins. I found all the staff to be very friendly and definitely would recommend a visit.
Somewhat basic, but good to have the Viator voucher.
Really enjoyed the whole experience,especially the penguin viewing
Love those penguins, they are just so impressive. Didn't see any from happy feet but they did look good. The aquarium has a lot in it, very impressed. Go there early in the day, very popular can get crowded
Fun place to see the Penguins. They need mors shuttle buses since it is quite out of the way. Overall good value.
This was great . We arrived at Kelly Tarltons on a Public Holiday ..queue was out to the Carpark, lucky we had a pre-paid tickets, straight ahead of the queues ... and cheaper than everyone else had to pay as well ..always a bonus !! Will always check on VIATOR now for deals and pre-paid bookings :)
definitely worth a visit, even if you older, our group was over 50s and we really enjoyed the tour. some interesting artifacts and stories to be told.
The Antarctic penguin exhibit pictured was the highlight of Kelly Tarlton's for me. The penguins are SO cute! However, other than the penguins, Kelly Tarlton's is much like other aquariums in other major cities around the world, so I'd only go if you're excited about seeing penguins.
Impressive.
I really enjoyed our visit to the Antarctic Encounter. All of the animal life was fantastic! In particular the penguin habitat was really impressive, you can view very closely the penguins and their newborn chicks, and riding in the snowcat was a lot of fun. The historical photographs and films of early Antarctic expeditions were also very interesting. It was worth checking out as part of our trip to New Zealand.
