    If you're feeling bored or unsure of what to do in Miami, look no further than this place! It's an incredibly cool experience that's sure to be enjoyable. The staff is friendly and attentive, and there are lockers available to store any extra items you may have - all you need is your phone. At each location, the staff will explain the unique features of the area and give you tips on how to take the perfect photo. They'll even take photos of you themselves, so you can rest assured that you'll get great shots. The walls are covered in explanations and examples of how to take the perfect photo, and there are also restrooms, water, and a small gift shop available. Additionally, there are illusions and models with detailed explanations in both English and Spanish, which are both informative and entertaining. I highly recommend it as a must-visit museum, even if you've been to similar places before!

    One of the super cool places in the Miami/Wynwood area. As tourists, I very much stumbled upon this area. I really enjoyed my time here. Definitely spent between 1 to 2 hours here. The staff is amazing and they really help you capture great pictures to make your trip memorable. Top notch experience for the price we paid.

    This was such an interesting and surprisingly fun experience not solely to take pictures for social media but lots of optical illusion type exhibits to fascinate the mind. It was my first time here with friends. You have to book an entry time in advance. We booked 3:20pm for this past Sunday and it was not crowded. People ahead and behind us were spaced out and moving through the exhibits in a timely manner that you don't have to wait to take pictures in the photo exhibits. What's really nice is that there is one staff member stationed at every photo exhibit to help guide you on how to pose and take the picture for you. Besides photo exhibits meant for you to take pictures in, there were a lot of other exhibits where you observe or interact using your hands. A majority of the exhibits seem to rely on mirrors. We were so well entertained that we didn't even know we spent over an hour walking through the museum and never a dull moment. However, this might be a one time experience as I don't think I will find it fascinating if I go a second time. Definitely recommend going if you've never been and even if you don't like being in pictures you can enjoy a lot of interesting non-photo exhibits. Plenty of paid street parking within walking distance and may require crossing the street if you can't find any space next to the museum.

    Took our daughter and some of her close friends here for her birthday. It was fabulous!!! Such a cool place defying what you see and think. This is a museum that actually encourages you to take photos!!! It's a must. We also had the best private tour guide, Bryant. He was professional, kind, patient and gave the kids great ideas for poses. He also took their pictures!! Overall I'm giving 5 stars. It was an easy and pleasant process from the first call, to visit and quick tour with Samantha, to booking, to arrival, to start, to finish. I would give more stars if I could. Thanks for a memorable 18th birthday : )

    Awesome experience!! The staff was really nice, always trying to help you out with the pictures or something else with the right perspectives. The place is family friendly, lot of stuff to do and is really interactive. Be prepared to have a lot of fun, it’s inevitable. I suggest to go in groups, or with a partner because for the almost 90% of the exhibitions you’ll have to team up. Get some food before you get there, because you will spend easily a couple of hours in there.

    Great experience for kids and adults alike. It is mostly optical illusion exhibits, but it is fun. Most people on the staff are kind and helpful. We were lucky to meet Monique and then Pedro. Both took their time to answer questions, suggest best picture poses and they actually took pictures and videos of us.

    A medium-sized museum with plenty interactive illusion exhibits. There’s numerous photo-ops so I recommend arriving with a large group and a full battery. Family-friendly. After entering, you can only exit by reaching the final exhibit, likely to keep crowds moving in one direction. We reached the exit within an hour. Staff members were incredibly kind by explaining how to pose and taking photos for patrons. Street parking is limited and paid, plus $20+ ticket cost per guest. Entry is not cheap, I can only hope their staff are being paid well.

    I enjoyed my visit to this museum. We went on a weekday, just at opening time. It was perfect. Not very crowded and we were able to explore each exhibit and take several different pictures in each of the rooms. It was really fun! I'm thinking about going again next time with the kids.

    Went with my husband and best friend after they came by with a flyer at my job and it was so fun! The photo opportunities are plentiful, and there's some real mind bending experiences to have. Staff was helpful and explained exhibits and even helped us get the best pictures out of the illusions. Absolutely wonderful.

    If you enjoy paradoxes, you'll love this museum. From little optical illusions to sets that allow you to take pictures of yourself doing crazy things like defy gravity, it was a lot of fun. We spent over an hour and a half enjoying each of the exhibits there.

    The museum was fantastic. Tons of cool exhibits with interesting scientific tidbits. Definitely a fun visit for adults and kids alike. Takes about an hour or two to go through. Has something for everybody. Lots of visual and optical illusions. Plenty of opportunities for fun pictures too!

    A cool immersive experience to force you to think outside of the box. The staff let us see the first couple exhibits again since on the way through we were behind a large group and passed them to be able to enjoy the exhibits to ourselves - and were ready to help us with photos and show us more of the displays and exhibits.

    Entertaining and overwhelmingly unique. We loved being able to take some epic photos and learn about paradigms. Staff was AMAZING. Would give 5 stars but I injured myself at the couch exhibit (the one with the torso and leg illusion. Must have been a loose nail or wood etc. staff member was kind enough to find me a bandaid.

    Would def recommend 10/10!! Experience was so cool and entertaining the whole time. Juan helped us so much throughout the full experience by taking the best pictures and explaining how everything works! He was so patient and kind.

  • 5/5 Mark R. 6 months ago on Google

    Great place. Sergio was very helpful in letting us store our luggage while we checked out the museum. Staff was also great and took lots of pictures for us.

  • 5/5 Ayla S. 1 year ago on Google
    An amazing experience! Everything was really well put together and displayed. Kevy took us through and explained and really made the night. I really reccommend this place for anyone a fan of optical illusions! Some slight warnings for ppl with motion sickness or seizure prone though; there are a couple spots that might be uncomfortable. Will definitely be back with more friends!

    Me and my husband came all the way from Sarasota, Florida to experience the museum and we loved it. We want to give a special shout out to Anivette. She was knowledgeable, sweet and took some great pictures that we can keep for our cherish able moments❤️

    Awesome place to visit while in miami. Take your imagination to a different level. Super friendly staff , always there to take pictures to creat your own story

  • 4/5 Les S. 1 year ago on Google
    This museum has a lot to share both visually and thought provoking. There are things to see, learn and interact with. Illusion is the name of the game. You can immerse yourself and participate in the illusion or just observe it. The staff is present to assist you in creating the illusion or simply help with a possible explanation if needed. So photographing your experience is very much encouraged. Entering and exiting is a one way pathway so you can't go back once you've experienced a room (like a maze). Bath room facilities available halfway through. No food or drinks. The price of admission was higher than expected for this experience because you could walk through quickly or participate which would take much longer. The upside of your time here would depend on the amount of people attending when you do. Choose a week day to avoid a crowd. Family friendly but that can get expensive. Fl. resident discount, 2 bucks, if you call that a discount (no others). I loved the place. It's located in a place I would never venture if not for my curiosity. Parking is available but you're going to pay for that too.

    Absolutely loved it!! We got so many good, fun photos thanks to Christopher. They seemed to really love their job at the museum. Their enthusiasm really made a difference in our visit. We would love to come back if in the area again!

    It’s a cute little museum. I took my 17 year old son and his girlfriend they really enjoyed themselves. There are a lot of instragamable picture opportunities. I thought it was worth the price to go.

    This place was great! The installations are really creative and interesting, each perfect for a photo opp. The staff was fantastic -- friendly, attentive, fun -- and it is entertaining for both kids and adults. We held a meeting in the space before they opened, so we kind of rushed through the exhibits, but I know that I will be back with family and friends. Highly recommend it!
