Pros: Loved the seahorses and all the sea critters. Cons: Might look at parking options next time.
I’ve always loved Chattanooga and the trains. Now that they have the Tennessee Aquarium, it’s even more fun to visit the friendly mountain city that sits right near where the tips of Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee come together. You’d be hard ...
Pros: Fascinating exhibits. Cons: Sometimes the crowds are so large it's hard to see anything.

Pros: wonderfully done, surpasses all other aquariums I have been to Cons: some of the really great exhibits are just limited engagements and aren't around all the time
Living in North Georgia, I frequently go up to Chattanooga, Tennessee just to visit the Tennessee Aquarium. I have yet to get tired of the exhibits there. I was especially pleased, though not with the CROWDS, at the first day of the "Venom"...
Pros: Rare animals, great exhibits Cons: Price, Crowds
Lately, I've heard a lot of people say that they were somewhat disappointed upon visiting the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga. I'm not sure why, but I think it has something to do with the fact that people don't see the bright, exotic fishes like they...

Pros: interesting, diverse wildlife Cons: ALWAYS CROWDED - VERY POPULAR
I just got back from my second trip to the Tennessee Aquarium. I won't go into the price detail or hours of operation as you can get that in every other review and I find that duplication of information unnecessary. I will share with you, however, that...
Pros: Big aquariums and up-close looking. Cons: Overcrowding.
First of all I live in Tennessee, and about an hour away from the Aquarium. Last year we thought it would be a nice pre-birthday present for our four year old daughter. It wasn't really a poor decision, but it was one I will never do again.
Pros: A wide variety of fish, amphibian and reptile species from around the world Cons: The price is high, the souvenir shop is over priced with cheaply made trinkets.

The first time I went to the Tennessee Aquarium was in 1993. I was amazed that something this breath taking was so close to my own home! (I lived in Nashville at the time. The aquarium is in Chattanooga, about 2 hours away). I was simply amazed at all of...
Just to see the 22 pound bass alone was worth the trip.

Summer time means Vacation time so every year we attempt to expose our children to other parts of the United States. This year we decided to visit Northern Georgia and Southern Tennessee. We went many exciting places but the one that excited my children...
