Customer Reviews
Museum of Illusions visit.
2023-11-25
All the exhibits were user friendly. Explanations were provided besides each exhibit, There was no waiting time involved in walking through the museum. My 7 year old grandson and my 75 year husband were equally amazed by the exhibits. It was a truly enjoyable way to spend an hour. The four of us (including myself and my daughter) left the museum in good spirits as well as with the memories of the thought provoking illusions that we encountered.
Fascinating, but a lot of issues here
2023-09-03
Access is difficult, large steps and no ramp. There is no place to sit; once you go in you’ll be on your feet for the duration of your visit. There are no bathrooms here.
Many of the presentations are contemplative and require some time to view, understand and think about. Because all of the illusions are visually based, the experience is undermined when others walk between you and interrupt your observation. The overcrowding and small space contribute to this.
Separate hours for adults only should be established. The dozens of unruly children seriously detracted from our ability to fully engage and enjoy this experience.
If you are able to set these issues aside, this museum has a lot of fascinating material to offer and explore, some of which can be truly thought provoking with regard to how we experience and interact with the environment around us.
Sadly, due to the issues mentioned above, this museum has yet to realize its potential.

Not Built For Anyone Other Than The Most Hardy!!!
2023-07-13
Was a very trying experience. for both my friend and myself. Although very interesting and a different type of experience it is not meant for older people nor anyone of any age not 100% physically strong - at all! There is absolutely nowhere to sit, stop, or rest even for a moment once you are inside. Not even in the entrance/lobby! There is literally not even one chair/seat.
Inside is very, very crowded and narrow, mobbed with people and many, many young kids. The outside entrance has two very high, large steps with no railing, nothing to hold onto. Unless your balance is perfect, good luck! I don't know who thought it up, but my driver literally had to carry us down to get out!!!
How does that even happen these days??? I thought the population was aging and that new places here needed to be built according to accessibility standards.
