Georgia Aquarium - Atlanta, GA —
First things first, the Georgia Acquarium is a neat attraction that really doesn't have a comparison. Afterall, it boasts being the world's largest acquarium. There are many things to see and experience there, which definitely makes it, at the very least, interesting.I do, however, have several gripes with regard to the acquarium which make me feel like I will never patrionize their business again. For the most part, my complaints about the acquarium fall in line with other popular attractions, but I do not think that they are quite at the level to make it worth the trip. I feel that the cost for everything surrounding the trip to be quite ridiculous. The parking, admission to the acquarium and cost for food/beverages/gifts seem to be quite high. When you visit other popular attractions, you can justify the costs based on the return that you are getting during your visit. The two times that I visited, I spent about 3 hours there and that was with the crowds and revisiting several areas again. The crowds are also quite overwhelming. There are so many people there at any given time (I have gone during the week and on the weekend) that is makes it difficult to enjoy any part of what you are experiencing.
