It was really worth it to do the All-In experience in the Aquarium. It is again extra awareness about the pollution that threatens life and need to take better care of our planet.
The Butterfly garden is nice, but very noisy due to the kids that get very excited about the thousands of butterflies which you are also allowed to touch. If you love that too, it's worth just to sit and relax there and enjoy all that is happening. Also a tip to ask questions to the staff, they are happy to explain more. And ... more animals to see besides butterflies. Look for the caterpillars and the egs as well.❤️
In the area are a lot of very nice shops and places to eat at affordable prices. Waterside views.

Visiting the Abu Dhabi National Aquarium was such a refreshing experience. From the moment you walk in, you’re pulled into a beautiful underwater world that feels both educational and magical. The aquarium is spacious, well-organized, and incredibly clean, making it enjoyable even when it’s busy. Each zone is thoughtfully designed, and the variety of marine life—from colorful reef fish to majestic sharks—is truly impressive. What stood out most was how informative yet engaging everything was; you don’t just look at the animals, you actually learn their stories. It’s a perfect place for families, couples, or even solo visitors who want a peaceful and fascinating escape. Definitely one of Abu Dhabi’s must-visit attractions.

Qasr Al Watan is a breathtaking place, with all of its exceptional architecture and luxurious gardens. I went there after finishing an educational program in Abu Dhabi, and it easily became one of the best parts of my 2-week trip. I went there alone, but I definitely imagine the experience will be much more amazing than it already is with a group of friends.
I got to see the international gifts exhibition and have a look at halls that have reached the top level of building beauty and skill, and the space is so spacious that you don't get affected by the number of visitors.
The ticket booking experience through Headout was very smooth and I got my ticket immediately. No bugs, no delays, no weird errors; just a simple booking and great destination.
