Doing what: Tampa Trio Pass: Florida Aquarium, Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo and MOSI
I recently had knee surgery and brought along a scooter to use and was very pleased that all the places I needed to go were accessable for my predicament. My daughter was visiting from TOledo Ohio and we all enjoyed the Zoo, the Aquarium and MOSI. We bought the Tampa Trip Pass and that saved some money, making the whole trip even more desirable!!

We had a great time at the Zoo, Aquarium and Museum. This was one of the best Zoo's and Aquarium's we've visited. If we're in the Tampa area again we would go again. We highly recommend anyone to go.
