Orlando: Madame Tussauds and SEA LIFE Aquarium Combo Ticket


About This Experience
This combo covers two indoor Merlin attractions that sit next to each other at ICON Park on International Drive. Madame Tussauds Orlando has more than 90 wax figures across eight zones, from History & Leaders to Sports, Music, TV, Film and an A-List Party, plus a Justice League area where kids pose with superheroes and swing a Bat-Signal over Gotham. SEA LIFE Orlando adds a 360-degree tunnel with sharks and turtles overhead and a rock pool where kids touch sea stars.
Both are walk-through and self-paced, so you can do them in either order on the same day. The aquarium typically takes an hour to an hour and a half; the wax museum has no official visit length, and photo-happy kids can easily stretch it. Parking is free on site and everything is air-conditioned.
Kids get the most out of Madame Tussauds when they recognize the faces. Superheroes and athletes land with most ages, while many music and movie stars mean more to teens and parents. The aquarium works from toddlers up. Wax hand casting and the behind-the-scenes tour cost extra.
Check hours before you go, since the two open at different times (11 AM and 10 AM on Sept 24, 2026). If your kids only care about fish, the SEA LIFE-only ticket is simpler. On the Merlin option, the Orlando Eye is listed as closed for annual maintenance with no reopening date.
