Took the Antalya Aquarium tour last week and it was SUCH a blast! 🙌 My kids were fascinated by the sharks in that massive tunnel aquarium—they've been talking about it non-stop! Really enjoyed wandering through Antalya's Old Town too; it felt like stepping back in time. The Kurşunlu Waterfall was a peaceful break, and don’t even get me started on all the pics we took 🤳—so pretty! Totally recommend for families looking for some fun and adventure. Make sure to bring your camera!

Such an awesome day out with the kids! The tunnel aquarium was my fave—seeing the sharks up close was just wild! My kids honestly loved it and got to learn so much. After the aquarium, strolling around Antalya Old Town was really neat and the waterfall was the cherry on top. Packing some snacks for the kiddos was a lifesaver during the bus ride. Totally recommend it for a full day of family fun!

Perfect day out! The aquarium is huge and full of cool sea creatures. Especially great for families. Kids loved the wax museum too! Pro tip: wear comfortable shoes since you’ll be walking a lot at the Old Town.
