Bangkok: 04 - 06 Sep ~ Siam Ocean World

10 Sep 2012 (Mon):

Just one attraction & I've got so many photos to share. We bought the kids to Siam Ocean World, located at Siam Paragon. It was a 15 mins walk from our hotel.


The park itself has many different admisssion packages to choose from. But their pricing's a great difference as compared to their website.

At the place itself:
900baht/adult & 700baht/child for a normal admission.
1100baht/adult & 900baht/child for a super package which includes the 5D theatre, glass bottom boat, happy fish happy feet, back of house tour, pepsi & popcorn.
3500baht for a family package of 2 adults & 2 children which includes all of the above mentioned.

Website:
1360baht/adult & 1040baht/child for a silver package which includes admission to Siam Ocean World & Madame Tussauds. 
810baht/adult & 630baht/child for a normal admission.
3150baht for the family package.
630baht/adult & 490baht/child for a Happy Tuesday Promotion.

We were there on a Tuesday but no such package available. And the family package pricing was also different by 350baht. Nonetheless, we bought the Family Package @ 3500baht = SGD$140.


There were many different areas to explore. In our opinion, its even bigger than the Underwater World @ Ocean Park in HongKong.  At Bangkok here, they even have Back of the House Tour, Glass Bottom Boat Ride & Happy Fish Happy Feet ( fish spa).


The kids were on a shark encounter mission; the Glass Bottom Boat Ride. Surrounding us below the waters are all sharks. Daddy bought a bowl of shrimps @ 100baht for the kids to feed those to the sharks.

We went onto a " Back of the House Tour " where we saw how they do water filtration, how the sick marine creatures were cared for, the food preparation corner, the preparation for the birth of the baby sharks, etc. No photo taking allowed. :(




Touch Pool for the kids to feel the different creatures. This one staff stationed at the touch pool went around telling everyone to be gentle. " ... soft, soft ".... till at one point, i told him " .... ya ya soft soft, very soft soft already... " Haha... i know he's doing his job; who would handle the fragile creatures roughly, we wouldnt for sure. But i cant say the same for the local kids there.

** There were many students all over the park; some field trip they were having; damn noisy & loud & rowdy.



Happy Fish Happy Feet. We were doing fish spa. It lasted only 10mins but it was good while it lasted.

At the exit of the park, we got some close encounter with the mascots.
