Truman Aquarium is a great spot to take the family and is connected to Discovery World. It’s a smaller aquarium than those in larger cities and it’s still a fun place for the kids to explore and learn about the freshwater eco system. The life size ship is also a really great piece for everyone to explore and enjoy. Check it out!

Very cool aquarium since it has a tunnel that has the overhead tank but it is a very small aquarium. On a crowded day it leaves very little space to move around. Exhibit halls are narrow which can be hard of your in a wheelchair or using a child carriage. The touch tank was cool. Kids really enjoyed that. My main complaint is the café and paid parking, is too small for the amount of people that visit. The café is not equipped to handle the amount of visitors. No food was ready. Lines were ridiculous. Waiting times for food was worse. Barely no seating. Who designed that?

We had a good time with kids. Highly recommended

20 bucks to walk around meh. It was nice but chicago was better

Visited from Michigan and had a great experience! Our daughter loved seeing everything and the place flowed very well. Easy to walk and keep occupied.

A lot of fun! The parking was a bit messy because the parking garage wasn't opening, but a lot better than what we're used to in Chicago. My son had fun exploring the exhibits but really came for the aquarium. He loved how many animals he saw; the layout was great, and he was even able to attempt to pet a stingray and sturgeon.

Small, but very fun, I recommend going. It’s lacking quite a bit but it’s still nice

The Aquarium is one of my favorite parts of Discovery World!

Not a huge aquarium, but some interesting fish none the less. Also, the kids really enjoyed the "touch tanks" where they could feel a few different aquatic creatures.

Looked wet.....

Many great fish but this is not a large, spend all day place. Looking for an interesting place to spend 2 - 3 hours? This is perfect.

Good place to bring your kids. A lot of small activities for the kids

Wow, Discovery World. What an awesome place to bring the kids. My little guy in the blue coat mentioned numerous times that this place was way cooler than Alligator Alley in WI Dells. This activity was not only informational for my us (meaning my family- adults included) but fun and hands on! Parking underground is 10.00. I would recommend you purchase tickets in advance prior to arriving, like the website mentions.. but who actually does that.. 🙄 The line to get inside is pretty ridiculous, there were no markers on the floor to “indicate” the 6 feet rule- so people were just standing uncomfortably close. We were helped by a gentlemen who was snotty, gave very shorty unhelpful, one-three word responses when asked a question and he said it rudely. Never asked the ages of my children. Just assumed that they were above 3 years old, I ended up paying over 100.00. 104.00 to enter to be exact. According to the CDC’s website & guidelines no one under the age of 5 needs a mask on. This man looked at my child,- in the blue coat and my 2 year old daughter and mind you he hasn’t even begun helping us yet. He was still helping someone in front of us. He looked and said they are going to need masks. I said; um ok. I mentioned that according to cdc and stuff he said well it’s on our website. I said okay well can I please have one- he told me to go in the gift shop to purchase one. Excuse me? I just spent over 100.00 to enter your building and you can’t give my child a mask? So, I walked back to my car to get my child a mask instead of paying another 7.99 for a cloth mask. Not only that— there were 3 lines and than a membership lines; so a total of 4 lines. They each had a garbage can on the side with a bag and then another garbage can at the front of where they were sitting- the garbage can that was at the front of the desk had a NICE BIG SIGN THAT READ: USED PENS ONLY- other people were putting there used pens in there this guy was just constantly giving every person the same pen. My sister and my children all had to go to the restroom so I hung out and watch this man with my baby niece for 10 minutes until they came back out. He was so rude, and unhappy. My customer service at Discovery work I would say would be about a 2. I had contact with a few other staff members this day and they were great. They seems to like their jobs. The gentleman that gave us such a memorable experience named is Loft? Left? Laft? Either way, it had a L and a F and T in it. He said it very fast and mumbled it. He didn’t wear a name tag. I even asked for a manager; which I didn’t get. This is why I give it 3 stars because the inside is absolutely stunning and beautiful. For myself— customer service and how an individual treats me is key and my entire mood while I was there was off because from the moment we walked it; it was bad. Other than that minor stuff- GO! They have a beautiful view of the lake front. The lake front is right there. They also have a dock that is walkable. :) just be careful- signage reads deep water !!

We have had a wonderful time visiting. We have five children, and it was one dollar more to get the family membership for a year vs only one visit, so we opted for that. We just made our second visit, and it was just as fun for the kids. The staff are friendly and very understanding with all the kids. It was amazing that when the school groups left, it was like no one was there. Both times, we have stayed until closing time and the kids slept all the way back home.

We had a lot of fun here great time with our whole family

Came all the way from Richmond with my family to visit Milwaukee and check out this aquarium. Half the place is closed off and the staff was rude. Not worth the time! My 3 year old daughter was very disappointed.

Not worth the cost in my opinion. The aquarium portion was substantially smaller that I expected. I will not go back again.

Touch a surgeon.

The Reiman Aquarium is fascinating! Love the Great Lakes representation! All of Discovery World is a treasure trove of learning for all ages!

Loved seeing it.

Our grandsons look forward to Discovery World every Spring Break. Glad to see some new exhibits this year.

The best aquarium in milwaukee that I know of. Lots to see and learn about fish and our great lakes and the water cycle.

Wonderful surprise. Great STEM museum for many ages. Beautiful building. Spent all day there and kids didn't want to leave.

Great price and great place for the kids

excellent

Cool place! We wish there was a little more to do, we were here for about 45 minutes from the time we parked until we left, and we did pretty much everything.

Amazing!

The family was very entertained for a few hours, and everyone learned something.

Learned alot about fish snakes sting rays and about wayer works

Aquarium was small but the discovery center was nice

Beautiful, and learning all in one

Kids &I had alot of fun .

Love to spend time with the family their

This is an amazing aquarium. You can actually walk under through it. Huge lake sturgeon. Fun.

The aquarium was awesome, it is somewhat small but the whole Discovery Zone is fun.

Wonderful exhibit at Discovery World. You must purchase a Discovery World ticket to enter. There are many varieties of sea life as well as creative exhibits like the tunnel where the fish can swim above and beside you, or the stingray/sturgeon petting area.

Beautiful fresh and saltwater aquariums

Love Discovery World!

the staff was so disrespectful

Not big but good for kids

fun place to explore

Loved the aquarium wish it was bigger

Not bad but pretty small

Great place to bring my grandchildren

Very Small Aquarium! Not worth the money!

Educational, beautiful, helpful staff

The aquarium was great we got a discount because we came at 3, if you dont come at about 3 a family of 6 would be roughly 100 bucks and it's not worth it considering there is nothing great about the place but the aquarium

Was fun

Fun place to go with the family

Fun for the kids

Some of the exibits, we're closed for construction

Excellent place for children

Awsome, this was a great place to visit. Highly recommend for kids.

It will is so cool and it is very child friendly.

Home Is Always Fun Milwaukee I Will Be Back Home Soon

Great place for the whole family to visit. Lots of stuff to learn or to refresh knowledge as well to entertain. Currently the cafeteria/restaurant is not open, however a lunch bag can be taken and eaten… there are a couple of tables and chairs at the entrance, right after the check-in booth.

This is a very small exhibit. The fish are carps, bass, and other common varieties. Save your time. Shouldn't be called an aquarium. Display tank at bass pro has about the same variety.

Cool fish but what is that?
