## Corrections to claims found elsewhere

- The Aquarium ticket price is not fixed: online fixed-date tickets follow a dynamic price (EUR 26-34 for adults in 2026).
- Swimming with the dolphins is not possible: Italian law forbids physical contact.
- In combined tickets sold online (Lighthouse, Citta dei Bambini, Columbus House, FantaCinema) the Aquarium time slot is booked separately.
