    Nice boat ride, despite the fact there is not so many animals to see under water. The exhibition is really small but ok

    It is beautiful to see the crystal clear water and to be able to see the springs. The wetlands were very nice. Flowers were gorgeous!

    Beautiful. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the springs and their history. My almost 2 year old and 7 year old loved it. Will be coming back again.

    Very beautiful. It wasn't even that sunny when we went, but the water was clear and the whole area was just pretty. We went on the Glass bottom boat tour and then the museum. Both the tour and museum was educational. Our guide was knowledgeable and passionate about what he was talking about.

    Nice place to spend a few hours. The glass bottom boat ride is really nice, and educational for kids. The guides are really nice and answer questions from kids. The spring is very clean, with being able to see 30 feet below crystal clear. Highly recommend. You can find discounted tickets on Groupon.

    Glass bottom boat was awesome. We got the new one and the Captain was very knowledgeable and spoke for an hour about the meadow and the history behind the meadow. Awesome.

    What used to be the Aquarena Springs amusement park is slowly being restored to beautiful natural areas with native grasses, plants and wildlife. The old hotel has a visitor center with fish, turtles and other aquatic animals. The glass bottom boat is worth the ride. If you go be prepared to pay for parking in addition to the cost of the boat ride.

    Great place for field trips. We take our 2nd graders every year. They have many different activities for them and the tour in the glass bottom boats is awesome. Most of the tour guides are excellent.

    This place was an adventure in what, at first, seemed like an old school Resident-Evil styled laboratory on the edge of a suburban forest. The experience is made more surreal with the presence of an abandoned 1970's-futuristic styled amusement park where the vegetation and nature has reclaimed the man made structures! The glass bottom boats are cool, you get to see the creatures living in the vegetation below, within the pristine spring waters! There are still relics from the shows and rides that they had here during the 70's. The tours are loaded with local history of this "aquarena"! It has additional museum and info inside. Overall, a real learning experience. The flora & fauna above and below the spring is noteworthy!
