An overpriced place compared to other activities that you can do with the same fee. It was fun, but not as fun as the price of the ticket. I would say finishes in an hour or so I have some backup activity. It might be fun for kids, but I have seen a lot of adults and I’ve been happy with that ticket price. Overall, one of those activities that is fun to do once in lifetime.
I received an advertisement from this place on my Instagram, and after that, I was curious to visit. As per my experience, I advise you to go with at least three people to have fun in all the activities, taking pictures and enjoying each station. The place is small but fun for those who are curious about illusion. I went mainly to see the magician who is there once a month, and it was AMAZING! Steven Jones is the new David Copperfield! He does tricks with cards, coins, and small items that you have no idea how or where they come from... and he does that with you in front of everyone! He is THE BEST, and his show was included in my price ticket $30 with tax included!nAlso, Steve is a lovely and funny guy! I would have stayed hours just watching his tricks and seeing the audience amazingly shocked by what he does.nnDISCOUNTS: If you have a Presto card, you have 20% off I did not know that until getting there; otherwise, I would have brought it.nI gave it four stars because I had to ask people to take pictures of me and my hubby, as it was just us. A third person would have made my day. They should incentivize groups to visit by giving discounts and promoting their place better.
A visit to this Toronto museum was short and fun. But i must say it may not be for everyone as you have to use all your senses. It’s not a mindless walk through tour at all. This is definitely somewhere to take your kids as they will be in awe. It’s very interactive and kids will really love it. I like it too, but I enjoyed seeing the joy from the kids more. I walked in off the street for visit during a weekday in the early afternoon and there was not a line up. It’s likely other times are busy but not when I did. The two ladies at the reception provided friendly and efficient customer service. I was told the visit would be about 45 mins to an hour. We two adults and child finished the tour in no time. I did feel I wanted it to be longer. I’m sure if you were to engage in every activity or with every exhibit, it would be longer.
This place feels like a small downtown office. The waiting room consists of 4-5 challenges that you can purchase and 2 chairs to wait. that’s where this place peaked. After you make your way in you see the same four very small rooms as the other people at your reservation time you are left with the feeling is there more is this it? Even the advertised upside down want the same and seemed lame. The front counter staff seemed confused when you asked them general questions but are confident when you ask how long to spend inside and are surprisingly told that most people spend an hour inside the attraction. If I wasn’t there with kids I’d say to see it all would be almost 5-10 minutes. There are some interesting things but they glaze over the intersecting and provide vague reasons why it’s an illusion. We did like the room where you can change sizes but that’s about it. Also it’s mostly mirrored and not that interesting. I think the illusion is your perception of value for your money. It felt like another downtown business trying to capitalize on tourists for a quick buck.
Has a good time at this place. The illusion rooms are very nice. It's a unique experience. Few exhibits are good to watch at the location and cannot capture the video. This location is great advantage, it's in the core downtown. Ronnie helped us in understanding few illusions. Otherwise, we would have missed those.
