5.00We thoroughly enjoyed both the Aquarium and the rainforest! The Penguins were our favorite! We also ate at the garden restaurant, which was fantastic! We also did the 4D experience simulating being in a submarine and the music museum. Both of those were good also. We spent over five hours total. I would highly recommend spending a day here!
We love Moody gardens!

4.00Did both the aquarium and the jungle I will go over the aquarium first. Over all not the best aquarium I have ever seen the penguins were probably the highlight for me. Most of the tank set ups were ok but just not blow my mind amazing. There was a dead jelly fish in the jellyfish display area and I did see some fish being picked on. The jungle how ever I thought was great! It was very cool how you went from the tree tops to the bottom loved how bio active it felt and was to me the stronger of the two. The plants and flowers were beautiful. I love how it did have little air vents through out to help beat the heat in the area. It could have used more benches for people to rest at. I was with my mother who needed a couple more places to sit towards the end. I would for sure do the jungle again but not the aquarium.
