Visitor Reviews

What Our Visitors Say

★★★★★

Our guide made the Shark Tunnel an experience we'll talk about for years. She knew every shark by name, described their behaviours in real-time, and answered every question our kids had. The best guided experience at any aquarium we've ever visited.

Sarah M.

★★★★★

Did the Open Ocean Dive and I'm still speechless. Swimming alongside three giant manta rays in 18 million litres at Singapore Aquarium is the single most remarkable dive of my life. The pre-dive briefing by our guide was superb and professional.

Kenji T.

★★★★★

Brought 60 students for the school science tour. The guide adapted content perfectly for JC students — genuinely university-level marine biology made accessible. The Jellyfish Lab session was the highlight. Highly recommend OceanGuide SG.
