    Brilliant Dive Leader
    Venkat, our Dive Master, was exceptional. He helped with every part of the experience and was really great to be around. Diving in the Aquarium was, of course, exceptional. The number, diversity and scale of fish, rays, sharks, was fabulous.

    Magical experience with Venkat
    Venkat you are the best! We had an amazing experience with you. Initially I was a bit nervous however you really calmed me down and helped me relax and enjoy. Our dive with you was magical. It was a different world down there and we were able to enjoy if because of your expertise. You were extremely professional and a true expert. I won’t be able to thank you enough brother. When we come back to Dubai, we are definitely diving with you again and every time. I wish I could take you with me all over the world whenever I dive. Having a diving expert and a friend would be perfect.

    Special experience
    Guides were fantastic and kids loved it. I think it’s a little on the expensive side but it was fantastic. Family get to watch it all from the outside. Cold showers afterwards were not ideal and kids were freezing but they still loved it. Thanks so much to Edmund and guides for looking after the kids.

    Sadly….. Overrated. Mediocre at best.
    20-30 minute experience. Exhibit was good and photo-esque, but not worh its exorbirant price (190 Dirham per adult). Only worth it if you book one of their tours (snorkeling/diving) or if you’re booked at the hotel (45 Dirham per adult).

    Had an awesome first time dive experience with skilled instructors at the Atlantis aquarium. Thanks goes out to my Instructor Rini who didn't give up on me. Jenna was with instructor Gayatri who gave her an incredible experience as well. Norique was with instructor Lorraine who made his experience one of a kind. Thanks for your patience and skilled work. It was an awesome experience.

    Marine Discovery for Non-Certified Divers
    I had the absolute pleasure of diving in the aquarium with zero prior experience or knowledge. No need to hide I was somewhat nervous and struggled with the whole pressure equalising bit (for the ears), but my instructor Airen was very helpful and supportive and kindly guided me so that I had no struggle going down the big pool. It may seem that 30 minutes underwater is a long time, but trust me, it feels like 1 minute, that's how caught up in the moment you are. The sharks are a bit scared of the bubbles you make, but the rays have no problem coming super close to you and some of the fish even slide across your face which is very cute unless you're scared of sudden touches (but no need to be, they won't bite you). I will definitely come back here for the PADI certification as the safety your instructor creates is very important, emotional comfort being quite a crucial part of it. Thank you guys for such one of a kind experience!

    Scuba experience
    With 65,000 fish in an enclosed space, a fantastic experience was guaranteed and it did not disappoint. Rays and sharks and fish galore. Thank you Febyn the dive master, a real professional and to the photographer who captured some great photos. We loved this. Thank you.

    Disover dive
    This was my first time diving and it was incredible. Kawsik was my co-diver and instructor and he was wonderful. Told me everything I needed to know before the dive and made sure to make it extra special when I was in the water by directing me to all the cool places and taking pictures with while I posed as best I could under the water. If I am ever back in Dubai, I hope to be a certified diver so I can do it all over again, but for a good while longer! Highly recommend!

The tour was amazing, Orbyll did a great job and was very knowledgeable about the sea life at the Lost chambers Aquarium. We got a real insight into how they look after the different kinds of fish and sharks and sea life. I learnt a lot today and developed a better appreciation for the sea life. Highly recommend, the fish tour is definitely worth it. The aquarium is very beautiful. Thank you

Save your money. Visiting from the UK and Sealife Centre in Birmingham is bigger! Dubai Lost Chambers sold as taking 2+ hours. One small area. 45 mins max. Only I large tank with 1 shark. Poor value for money

Den was really nice, and gave a very insightful, knowledgable presentation. Really cool! I was fascinated about the beauty in the different tanks, the jellyfish were amazing!

Signed up for diving in The Lost Chambers aquarium and it was a very pleasant and amazing experience. Full diving equipment is available and it is well taken care of. Instructor Fabian is very clear on dive plan and help us out, in case we found difficulty in the water. Overall, very very good experience except that the sharks are mostly shy with the divers
