We look forward to welcoming you for a one-of-a-kind experience. Please review the following information regarding your upcoming tour, as well as directions to our building and parking information. Call us at 410-576-8822 with any questions.
Checking In
Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your scheduled start time. We strongly encourage guests traveling long distances to allow themselves extra travel time in case of heavy traffic. Check-in locations vary by tour; check-in information specific to your tour can be found on the individual tour page or in the tour prep email you received after purchase.
Additional Information
Age requirements vary by program; please review your tour information before your visit to learn more. All guests under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a paying adult. For all programs, participants under the age of 18 must have a waiver signed by a parent or guardian in order to attend.
For programs with age requirements, if a guest does not meet the specified age requirement, they will not be allowed to participate in the program and no refund will be offered.
Your tour does not include admission to the National Aquarium; however, our tours are add-on experiences to general admission tickets, which grant you admission into the building.
For all behind-the-scenes programs, please wear closed-toe, non-slip shoes. No flip flops, high heels or Crocs will be permitted.
Because the health of the animals is always our top priority, any program may be modified without previous notice should the need arise.
Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable. If the Aquarium cancels your program, you will be notified by phone and will have the option of rescheduling for another date or receiving a full refund. You may also check the status of your tour by calling 410-576-8822 within two hours of your program start time.
