    The first thing you’ll see upon entering Atlantis Aquaventure is the Tower Of Neptune, a vertical slide nine stories tall. More than its high drop, the exciting part comes once you go through an aquarium filled with sharks and manta rays. It's a breathtaking journey that will have you gripping your seat in fear and in awe.
