“Seriously is a great aquarium for kids to chill when visiting Komtar. I feel worth it with the top 5 combo ticket. Aquarium is not too small but just nice. Many small fishes and some reptiles to entertain the kids. We visited while waiting for food before going to Jurassic and Top. Nice slot in for the combo. Tips: We thought is a small aquarium and can finish very fast but surprisingly we still need to walk and if seriously observe the fish closely and walk slowly can spend easily more than 30min to an hour. Do plan your time accordingly.”

“Summary: My family recently visited The Top Boutique Aquarium in Penang, and it was a very enjoyable experience. It's a smaller, more intimate setting compared to Aquaria KLCC but offers a unique and diverse range of exhibits that kept us engaged. Observations: The staff were particularly friendly and welcoming, which was a highlight of the visit. They were accommodating and created a memorable experience, especially for the children. Our kids were thrilled to have the opportunity to interact with four different types of lizards under the staff's supervision, which made the reptile exhibit a standout feature. Environment: The aquarium is well-organized into different sections, each with a distinct focus. We found the variety of fish to be impressive, and the exhibits dedicated to sea horses and jellyfish were particularly fun and visually appealing. The environment felt clean and the tanks appeared well-maintained. Conclusion: The Top Boutique Aquarium is a worthwhile destination, especially for families with children. The hands-on reptile exhibit and the welcoming staff elevate the experience beyond a typical aquarium visit. It is a solid choice for a fun and educational outing.”

“My recent visit to the aquarium was truly impressive. The sheer variety of fish was amazing; so many different species, all clearly visible. Each fish was identified with its name and a brief history, adding an educational element to the experience. The tanks were clean and well-maintained....I highly recommend a visit!”
