    "Came on a Wednesday morning. There weren’t a lot of people and tickets were booked prior online. One of the current exhibitions - Being and Belonging was not included in the current tickets but it was totally worth getting it. Each floor comprised of different exhibitions so do be prepared for it to take up to 2 hours. 10/10 recommend coming here to be overwhelmed with knowledge and AC."

    "After my visit to Ripley's Aquarium of Canada, I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The aquarium is located in the heart of downtown Toronto and is a must-visit attraction for anyone in the area.As soon as you enter, you are transported into an underwater world with stunning exhibits that showcase a variety of aquatic life. From sharks and stingrays to sea turtles and jellyfish, there is something for everyone to see.One of the highlights of the aquarium is the Dangerous Lagoon exhibit, which features a moving walkway that takes you through an underwater tunnel surrounded by sharks and other marine life. It's a thrilling experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression.The aquarium also offers a range of interactive experiences, such as the Touch Tank, where visitors can get up close and personal with a variety of creatures, including horseshoe crabs and sea stars. There are also daily shows and feedings that provide a deeper understanding of the animals and their behavior.Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Ripley's Aquarium of Canada. It's a fun and educational experience that is perfect for all ages. The exhibits are well-maintained, and the staff are knowledgeable and passionate about their work. It's definitely worth adding to your list of must-visit attractions in Toronto."
