On the day of your visit
On the day of your visit, we invite you to :
- Go to the ticket office at least 15 minutes before the start of your visit to pay for your visit and collect your group ticket.
- Leave your belongings in the cloakroom: the group leader must accompany all the participants when they leave their belongings in the cloakroom.
- Gather your group together and head for the entrance to the Museum or Aquarium for an independent visit, or join your lecturer or mediator at the reception/ticket office.
Rules specific to the Aquarium: observation is the key word during the visit. In order to observe the species, it is important to avoid stressing them by sudden movements, noise or light. To encourage a calm visit, we suggest that accompanying adults divide the children into small groups under the responsibility of an adult. It is also forbidden to bang on the windows, for the well-being of the animals.
Everyone is asked not to run or shout in the exhibition rooms. Photos and videos are allowed, but no flashes or booms.
To ensure that your visit takes place in the best possible conditions, we invite you to take note of the general rules for visits.
Incorrect behaviour may lead to exclusion from the group.
Minors are under the responsibility of their guardians.
Payment can be made either :
- in advance and at a distance by cheque (payable to the EPPPD) or by bank transfer
- on site before your visit, by cheque (payable to the EPPPD), cash or credit card
- by administrative mandate
