FamilyVerified bookingJun 20265/5Sea Life Manchester is an outstanding place to visit and child friendly entertainment place. It was amazing and the staff there are amazing and so friendly and welcoming. My kids loved the place and enjoyed the visit. We will definitely visit again.SStephen B
CoupleVerified bookingMay 20265/5Easily one of the best most accessible and informative aquarium experiences our family has visited. Atmodoheric immersive informative revealing . Booking showed an anomaly: my 8yo son is registered disabled (visually impaired). As a carer, I should have been allowed free entry. Ticketing prevents this and we could only reverse the situation by my being the paying adult and he as my carer which is perverse and untrue. When mh family visited (wife totally blind and 2 children rdgistered visually impaired) I became mh wife's carer and elder child became youngest child's carer ... more equitable. Pause for thought ....RRuth M
FamilyVerified bookingMay 20263/5It wasn't the experience I expected for the coat if it, very small and pricey didn't match the experience. The presentations given where spoken too fast by staff to understand it. Felt very rushed experience
