Dolphinarium is worth visiting but you either have to take buses and walk a lityle or taksi. Ticket is 160 Lira for adult which is expensive. The show was good

It’s really worth the money and the visit. The show will take one hour but you will really enjoy it so don’t miss it when you visit Istanbul. Highly recommended.

A bit pricey. Good family spot for children. 100 TL per picture with the dolphin or walrus. 10TL for a small-sized popcorn. 20 TL for a bigger-sized popcorn. Adult entrance ticket costs 160 TL, childten 130TL.

BE CAREFUL of PICK POCKET. You need to be AWARE of this risk before you want to go there. The Show is very good. A 4 star. But the surrounding, mainly the roads & crossings are unsafe. There is Organised PICK POCKET/ criminals. Think twice before you go in this area. We had the bad experience of our life of being picked pockets just on the main road/ crossing in front of the Dolphinarium. The management & owners of the Dolphinarium knew that there are pick pockets but they say they can not do much. Attached pictures that we have taken after the attacked. It is a group of 5 to 6 'COVERED ladies' -35 to 55 years, look innocent, wearing hats like tourist. They have male leader using their or stolen cars to distract you while the ladies do the pick pockets. In our case they have used the crossing, the male leader drive the car backward to make us get distracted. If the authority want to catch them, they can, the car plate used in the attacked is in the picture Black Honda. Even the bus or the EDS camera can recognise them. Strong message to the Dolphinarium management. You should take care of this matter or else people won't come if this continue. Involve the municipality/ police/ put more camera/ inform the guests about pick pockets on the main road. Hope you will take it seriously.

DO NOT support animal abuse ! Just do not participate in these kind of activities! You can change it, and Thereafter we ALL can change it and then these places will go bankrupt and disappear!

Amazing show. All sea animals are extremely well trained and you can feel the love between them and their trainers. Highly recommended.

Tickets cost 140 Lira per person. Popcorn is 15 lira. The show starts at 14:00 everyday but 15:00 on Friday. The show last for 1 hour, included in the hour is a 15 minute interval for pictures touching the dolphin, walrus, beluga whale for a cost. Very enjoyable experience.

I do not recommend for the turists!!! Be very carefully because the employees from there are taking advantage that you are not from their country and they are stealing your money from the bags (they know that the police can't do nothing because is their word against yours and they don't have cameras in the changing rooms so you can't prove this). If you are going there please take the money, the phones with you to the pool or put them to lock your backpacks. The experience itself, swiming with doplhins is great, but you better chose other dolphinarium for doing this because you can't have trust in the people from this one. We were 2 days ago to swim with the dolphins and we had the worst experience. A fuller man with blue/green eyes put us to change in the rooms and he told us to let there the backpacks while we'll be swimming with dolphins(without being put in a locked place). We have checked before and we had the money. After less than 10 minutes (that they say they let you swim with the dolphins but is not like this -they were rushing us even if we were the only ones there) we came back to get dressed and go to the hotel. I want to mention that we only went by taxi and had nowhere to lose money. When we got out of the taxi and checked the money was gone !! We went back and called the police but nothing happened. They don't know english, is very complicated to communicate with them. The attitude of 2 employees from there (the fuller man who told us to leave the backpacks there because he will guard and an older one) was very rude, they were laughing and told to us they we lost the money on the street ( really? In taxi we could not loose the money). The interesting part is that when we came back there the guy who \guarded\ blushed and was acting strange...So, if you cand avoid this place, DO IT !! If you really want to swim with the dolphins take everything with you to the pool!
