This is a great experience for both adults and children. Adults may enjoy it even more as they may have a better understanding of the physics involved. Allow at least 45 minutes to an hour to enjoy the full experience. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about all of the exhibits.
The museum is fun if you have others with you!

You need to go with at least two other people with you in order to enjoy the experience . I went by myself but thankfully I found another person there who was doing solo and we became fast friends and did the activities together. It turned out to be a fun afternoon.
An experience not to be missed

Not really what we expected. Some interesting “exhibits” but for the price it wasn’t worth it. Seemingly no limit on the number of guests they let in at the same time and you need space to experience many of the exhibits so hard to take the space and time to really experience the place. Must be a cash cow for the owner.
Fun, engaging experience at the Museum of Illusions…

This was fun for the kids (ages 9 & 12), especially the puzzles. We decided to do this last minute after a lazy morning at our hotel which was right around the corner. It took us a little over an hour as my 12yo was trying to solve one of the puzzles and was almost done, but it was taking a while to life the heavy discs and her back was hurting (and people were waiting 😊). The only thing that was a negative was in the check in/gift shop there was a girl wailing/crying and the parent should’ve taken her outside (or the employees could’ve asked the parent to take her outside) as it was really disturbing to all the customers as the space was really small.
Really impressive...

Really impressive as an experience to see how things are perceived. However a little expensive as a visit for 2 adults and 1 teen.
Fabulous and ingenious!

Visual and physical experiences are extraordinary and accessible to everyone and taking photos is highly recommended for creating exceptional and unforgettable memories. We were three grandparents with our 12-year-old granddaughter and had a great time. We took the time to take funny pictures (especially the grandma and granddaughter) when the experience allowed then we benefited from the secrets behind the "illusions" thanks to the explanations provided.
Family fun

Lots of fun and great family activity. Takes about an hour to go through museum. The kids enjoyed the hands on activities.

Super fun and interactive experience, perfect for a date night activity! We also had a magician do card tricks which was a great time.

Very small! Not so much illusion, take the time to read the signs and it’s not very clear either ... no one who works on it directs us and explains ... you pay you in and you read!
