    My family and I are going to the zoo/aquarium on 9/07. Is there any hook up to get the backstage tour at the aquarium? I know they have done GIRS tours before, didn't know if they would entertain just us

    It was a special backstage tour that we arranged (xroads) for the club, several months before the event. I'm not aware of any personal behind-the-scenes tour.

    The aquarium is currently getting renovated, at least the entry/cafe area. If you want to see the aquarium I would recommend getting there early and heading directly there. I was there 2 weeks ago and thought about going there about noon. The line wasn’t moving very fast and the entire family didn’t want to wait so we passed that up.

    It is really hard to get a behind the scenes tour.
