A guided behind-the-scenes tour will be offered for $5.oo and must be purchased at the ticket office when you purchase your tickets. Be warned- this sells out quickly. I’ve been at the aquarium twice, once on a homeschool day, and it was full both times. If you plan to take part in the special behind-the-scenes tour, plan to arrive early in the day.
In addition to the discounted prices, homeschool students and parents will also receive a 10% discount at the Aquarium gift shops. If you are a member of the Tennessee Aquarium and you are a homeschool student or parent, you will receive a 20% discount. These prices and discounts for homeschool families are available only on January 31st, during the Tennessee Aquarium Homeschool Day event.
