Buying skip-the-line tickets is very convenient, as it avoids waiting in line at the ticket office on site. The Miracle Garden is truly a magnificent garden! We loved it. It's a beautiful walk among these floral sculptures!

It was a great deal, no waiting at all, saving time after fighting with Dubai tracking was fantastic. The place itself is stunning. The flower arrangements are so gorgeous you would like to stay there for hours.

The whole process was straightforward and well organized. Booking was simple, entry was quick, and everything worked exactly as expected. Staff was professional and the venue was clean and well maintained. The view over Palm Jumeirah gives a clear sense of the scale and structure of the island and the city itself. It’s a solid experience, well managed, and worth doing if you want a different perspective of Dubai. No unnecessary waiting, no confusion — just a smooth and efficient visit.

The views are spectacular — you see Dubai’s skyline, desert and the Arabian Gulf stretching out in all directions. The telescopes help zoom in on landmarks below, and sunset visits give gorgeous photos.  • The ride up in the elevator is fast and fun — one of the world’s quickest elevators.  • Once on the observation decks (124 & 125), you get panoramic 360° views indoors and outdoors, with great photo spots.

I decided to do the aquarium first as my slot for Burj Khalifa was at 5:00 PM. The aquarium was amazing with a lot of fishes, jellyfish, seahorses, crocodiles, penguins, otters, and other creatures. The best part was that I got to see the staff there feeding both crocodiles while one of the guides gave us information about the crocodiles as well as their feeding techniques. The aquarium experience was amazing, and a person can easily spend about 2 hours and more exploring everything included in the ticket. There were tickets available for snorkeling, penguin encounter, etc. too! Though I didn't do any of it, it looks absolutely fun! Coming on to Burj Khalifa, the process is decently paced from getting your tickets to heading inside where the lift to the upper floor is. Though, the queue is pretty long so having a fast track ticket will cut down half the waiting time. The view from the top was absolutely beautiful! We got to see the transition from sunset-ish sky to night lights. The fountain show from the top view was fantastic! The only thing is that there's always a big queue for the Burj Khalifa, and even with a fast track ticket, it'll cut down only half the waiting time in the regular ticket. While I was trying to shop, I also noticed that they used very dim lights, and as a person with partial night blindness, it was difficult for me to navigate the souvenir aisles in the dim light. The said souvenirs were decently priced with USD and Euro currency conversion mentioned on some of the price board. The overall experience was nice. And buying online ticket surely saved a good amount of money.

Best time to visit** 

Weekday vs weekends: Weekdays generally offer a more relaxed experience at the Lost World Aquarium with smaller crowds, allowing you to explore at your own pace. Weekends tend to be busier, especially during peak season, so plan accordingly if you prefer a quieter visit.

Peak season vs low season: The peak season (October to March) attracts more visitors because of the cooler weather in Dubai. You can expect longer wait times and larger crowds. During the low season (April to September), the weather is warmer and brings in smaller crowds.

The Lost World Aquarium is located within the premises of The Atlantis, Dubai.

Address: Atlantis, The Palm, Crescent Road, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
