happylarry Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 By the way there is only the one show per day so make sure you are there before 1pm. HL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lite Beer Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Aquarium is OK. Not too happy about the conditions the Tigers are kept in. You can have your photo taken with a Tiger. Not sure if it is sedated or not. Worth going for the Bird Show. It is very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooo Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 (edited) My wife & daughter booked a couple of years ago for the sea lion show.Got there, they took them into a private lecture room,explained all about the sea lions & positions in the pool.Now my wife is wondering what is going on.After about half an hour, they tell them they can change into costumes, to which my wife replies , they didn't know they had to bring any.Long story short,they got the 2 of them in the pool (fully dressed ) for an hour or so, playing with the sea lions & no spectators, just them.Had the best experience.Will post some pics when I find them.

I tried to get some Friends Kids 3 of the Sea Lion Training Day Vouchers for Christmas last year but they've been moved to California unfortunately, they do have some smaller ones there now that they appear to be training again which is good news... They are in the bigger Pool closer to the Sea.. Well i say were, this was maybe 6/8 weeks ago.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazeeboy Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 something to do on a dull day ,not expensive either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattias33 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Birdshow definately well worth a visit. The aquarium keep many interresting fishies but i get angry about the small place they give the bigger fishes. Some of them can´t move at all in their smal aquarium. Tigershow is not impressive either, it´s 10 minuites in the middle of the birdshow. Tigers jump trough some fire-rings and do some balance walking, thats it. But the birds are very impressive. I always take family and friends there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSingh Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) something to do on a dull day ,not expensive either Not sure about that, it's the same price as Oceanworld in the Siam Paragon & there is no other comparable other than the price...I think the Aquarium is over priced but i think the Crocodile Farm near the Airport is too for what it offers..Maybe i'm just turning into a tight B*stard..,. They're just Tourist Traps i suppose.. Edited June 19, 2008 by MSingh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tigers are doped up to the eyballs. Hoverer else could you cuddle up to them - my cat would get pissed off and he is domestic. Simply don't go ther and encourage this vile animal abuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrose070 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I've been - I quite liked the aquarium; the big fish startle you when they suddenly splash! But the tigers made me sad, as did the little creatures in cages outside that were heartbreaking. To me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
