Shedd aquarium, is the shedd pass really worth the extra money vs. the general admission pass?
We are going in March and it’s almost three times as much money to get the shedd pass vs the regular admission which is mainly the center area and not the ocean or penguin area. Are the other areas equivalent in the time it takes to go through? We don’t want to get the cheap ones and then be done in 45 mins but don’t want to spend the extra money for the other exhibits if they are quick too. Or lame. Thanks!
The Shedd Aquarium is fantastic, to be honest you could easily make an entire day out of it and still not see everything. So if you’re a water animal enthusiast I’d say definitely go for it, you’ll really appreciate it. I love the Shedd Aquarium, there is so much to see and do. To plan and see if the pass will be worth it take a look at the link below for more details. If you find that there’s enough for you to do without paying for the extras then just get the general pass. But if you’re thinking that you’d like to come back more regularly then get the Shedd pass, I think that there are even shorter line options with it if you’re not one to stand in line much.
If you’re looking for some other detailed information about attractions in Chicago I’ve included a great ideas link to help in the future. 
Which ever one you decide I hope you have a fantastic time!!
