The Ultimate Guide To Ripley's Aquarium Of The Smokies In Gatlinburg TN

[@cindyluwhonelson1416]

Ryan this video is the best that I've seen on KZbin of the Ripley's Aquarium! Very in depth & very informative. Planning on going there next time in the Smokies. Thank you!

[@dianesmith618]

I loved everything about this video. I have visited the Aquarium several times and even learned some new things from your video I apparently missed. Now I can't wait to go back! Keep up the wonderful work and look forward to more of your videos!

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Thank you so much for your kind words & encouragement Diane! We have plans for a lot more videos we hope will save other families time & money here in The Smokies & beyond! -Ryan & Brie

Me, my sister, and grandparents went here back in 2000. It’s so nice to see the tunnel. I still have it on a vhs home video with a sting ray pressing its face against the glass. That was the first time I ever saw their mouths and everyone there thought it was hilarious. Thanks for this

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Happy to share this tour!

[@sandranader8954]

Another great tour, thanks!! I'll put it on a possibility list.😊

[@ms.tep_]

I think your video was one of the best for showing Ripley's Aquarium!

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Thanks Tawna, we hope it helps people planning their time in Gatlinburg decide if the Aquarium is worth it for them!

[@xanderoxford6651]

Im so glad I watched this , I originally didn’t have this on my list of what to do but now I have put it in , thank you Ryan , you covered everything and im definitely looking forward to going

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Glad it helped Xander! We hope you have a great time here! ~Ryan & Brie

[@davef1977]

Thanks for the very informative video; you answered so many of my unknowns about the Aquarium. And who doesn’t enjoy a penguin parade!?

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

The penguin parade is great! Thanks Dave! We hope it helps lay out lots of helpful information for people coming to Gatlinburg and wanting to visit Ripley's Aquarium Of The Smokies! 🦈 - Ryan & Brie

[@Eg021875]

Ryan this was the best video on the Ripleys Aqauriuam that I have ever seen. So very well done. So much good information. All of thr many times I have been there in the smokies I never knew about or noticed those signs that have the number of parking spaces available. We have been to the Aqauriuam several times . This brought back some great memories for me. Like you one of my favorite parts of the Aqauriuam is the underwater tunnel. I Loved the penguins. They were so cute. They did not have the penguin parade when we were there. I would love to see that. Thanks so much for another great video. Keep tjose great adventures coming. God bless you brother Ryan.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Wow...thanks SMM! I try to put myself in the shoes of someone who hasn't ever been and try to answer the FAQ's I notice people asking online. I was thinking of swinging by the shark tunnel this next week with shark week about to kick off! 🦈😁

[@smokymountainman4964]

@@AdventureIsOutThere yeah can yiu believe it Ryan. We have been going to the smokies every year since 1995 and we didn't know about those signs with the number of parking spaces available in the parking garage. Thanks for that great information. There is always something new to learn and discover. Just like new discoveries in God's Word each day.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

[@smokymountainman4964]

@@AdventureIsOutThere thanks Ryan. The next time we are in the smokies we have to meet. I love having fellowship with a brother in the Lord.

[@karinahedgen4448]

To watch them be fed at 11:45, what time should we arrive at the entrance

[@PyroBear1776]

I haven’t been to TN in 3 years and haven’t been to the aquarium longer, definitely one of the best. But then again I’ve only been to maybe 3.

[@Blkrse-u1r]

Can’t wait to go here with my family I. The your videos are great and informational

[@Captain_Spaulding]

Aww the penguin giving the other penguin the rock reminds me of the movie, "The Pebble and the Penguin." That's what the boy penguin gives to a girl in order to purpose! Lol haha. You may have witnessed something pretty darn incredible! Haha. Cool video, thanks!

[@toriholtman5271]

Does the parking garage always stay open or does it have hours of operation?

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Gatlinburg Parking garages should be open from 8:00 AM - 11:00 PM. Overnight and long-term parking for vehicles is not allowed in any City of Gatlinburg parking lot.

[@BlackScarlet15]

I know this is an older video but do you remember how much it was for the photos?

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Hi Beth. Here is the cost for photos. I believe there is also a digital option when you are in the aquarium for around $35. Hope this helps! One 6 x 8 Photo in an Aquarium Folder: $21.99 One Keychain + One Magnet: $21.99 One 4 x 6 Photo with Seasonal Water Souvenir Frame: $27.99 One 6 x 8 Photo with Souvenir Frame: $25.99

[@BlackScarlet15]

@@AdventureIsOutThere THANK YOU!!!!

[@piedmontpengwing]

I am planning an entire day. I hope they are open in winter. It looks like it would be since it is mainly inside.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

They stay open year round.

[@IRLGaming510]

I’ve been there it is really cool

[@willbygosh4887]

[@larryolive2071]

Where do you suggest parking?

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Larry, I cover this at the beginning of the video showing the parking garage behind the aquarium that is $10 for the whole day.

[@pearlytexas1916]

Any EVCs there to rent?

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

They have wheelchairs, but I don't believe EVC.

[@rebeccabernhardt5995]

Are you able to go to the gift shop without going to the aquarium?.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Unfortunately no.

[@ashleighnapier4801]

Fun fact about the sea turtle there her name is sally! And she don’t like people if you wanna see her you have to go about the time they open cause she hides very well

[@sharonwilson2450]

Does it cost extra to go in and see the penguins?

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

To walk around the penguin area or watch the penguin parade there’s no additional cost. You can pay extra for a more up close experience, check out this link: www.ripleyaquariums.com/gatlinburg/penguins/

[@mindyburke7832]

They should put hoodies on the penguins🐧

[@ruthtate1816]

Makes me think of that tow truck driver dude. Who towels everybody in Gatlinburg away. when ya park in the no parking spots. And man there seems to be a lot of them. 😂😂😂
