There should definitely be a multilingual guide for the tour. We had to ask several times and walked many stairs for nothing.

All very nice and interesting. Very clear and detailed all the information given about the species belonging to the individual tanks. Itinerary of the internal route to follow very well structured.

We visited on the day we're were travelling back home so it was great to find out that they had a cloakroom to store luggage for €3 euro per item. The tanks were huge and gave enough room for enough people to view the aquatic animals. There are seating areas dotted along and there's doors leading up to the snack bar throughout multiple times. The signs for the animals are in Italian and English. However if your wanting to see more energetic animals I would say visit mid afternoon as on the morning some animals were still sleeping or had no energy.

Let me tell you a point abıut Genova Aquarium: There should be more taken care of some species in terms of healtiness such as amberjacks. There is a kind of infection on their eyes. Other than this location, premises and tour was good.

I've never visited an aquarium before, so I was suitably impressed. The route through the aquarium was very good, so you couldn't miss anything.
