We joined the Family Shark-cation 2D1N sleepover at the KLCC aquarium, and overall it was a really good and memorable experience for the kids and us parents. The activities were engaging, and it felt special to stay overnight surrounded by marine life. However, we were a little disappointed with our tent location. Our tent was set in front of a small window, so we couldn’t really see the sharks swimming. Other families’ tents were arranged in front of the big glass panels with a clear view, which made our spot feel less special. Also, the play mat provided for sleeping was too thin — it was quite hard to get comfortable through the night. A slightly thicker mat or added padding would make a big difference for future participants. That said, the staff were friendly, the program was well-organized, and our kids had a great time. We’d still recommend it for families, just hope the tent allocation and sleeping comfort can be improved in the future.
