Pros: in the middle of the city, very kind english speaking staff, have several interesting illusions, but they are seen mainly by phone not by eyes, so you must use phone to see the exact effect, we knew some of the from another places so it was nothing new for us, Cons: expensive, very small, the same as you can see everywhere Nice to visit but way overpriced, worth maximum 7 euros. The size of the is less than our house.. The of in Maastricht is a fun and quirky spot to check out, especially if you’re looking for something different to do in the city. The interactive exhibits are entertaining and great for a quick mental workout or some Instagram-worthy photos. It’s an engaging way to spend 45 minutes to an hour, especially for families or groups of friends. That said, the ticket prices are on the higher side for the amount of time you’ll likely spend there. I’d definitely recommend checking for online deals or discounts beforehand to make it more budget-friendly. Booking ahead can also save time, especially on busy days. Overall, it’s worth visiting if you have some free time in Maastricht and want a lighthearted, unique experience. Just make sure to grab a deal to get the most bang for your buck! We only visited because we received gift vouchers from someone. The place is more suited for kids, and the weren’t anything special, similar to what you see in other places like in Kraków or Stockholm. Nothing particularly outstanding. In my opinion, it’s not worth the price of over €16. We spent maybe 20 minutes there. A big plus, however, goes to the very nice staff: the ladies were extremely helpful and kind, and they helped us sort out a problem we had with one of our gift vouchers. Interesting place. Conveniently located in the downtown right above the underground parking. Could be quite crowded at some point, but take the advice and come a bit later if necessary. There is plenty to see whitin walking distance. The place itself is not big. Probably less than 1 hour if you are not very curious. Could be extended a bit more. 5 stars for the staff, 3 stars for the facility. Average 4. Crazy good experience o heard it’s a franchise so they are all across Europe and are probably going to open more. The was super especially one guy he looked as strong as the half god Maui and he was definitely smarter then most dudes I know maybe even the smartest and he had a very good sense of all the and he would come around and explain everything and make it seem even more fascinating and he made the puzzles look so easy my mother and me couldn’t make it in like 20 minutes and he took one minute, but he already knows how it works so it’s maybe unfair. I would definitely Redfin end visiting the price is also quite fair I’d say It's not too big but they have a fun collection of to play around with. Fun as a date but could also be enjoyed by kids. The Vortex walkway was especially trippy and funny. Very experience and a fun activity to do, especially with a friend or the family. Saw some very that blew my mind, and the were extremely and awesome. The entry fee is also very reasonable. Definitely recommend going here if you are ever in Maastricht. 👍🏻 Really museum, just very small. It's worth a visit if you have 1-2 hours to spare, they have fun and interesting exhibits, but I wanted to see more! Great with optical and staff. We had a great time. The of in Maastricht is super and creative place where adults and children can enjoy and play with incredible and enigmas. In the entrance hall is possible to buy gifts and play with very tricky wooden puzzles. It's definitely worth a stop if you're in the area! This was an interesting experience. Some of the don't work if you're by yourself, but the are really and will help with those. I think the ticket price is high for what you get. Book the tickets online to get a discount. The Illusion was one of the highlights of visiting the beautiful city of Maastricht. There’s a wide variety of puzzles, mind games and visual effects. The turning tunnel was definitely our favourite. The whole were super and helpful especially the blonde lady (didn’t catch her name unfortunately), George and Ryan. We would definitely love to come back!! :) HUGE TIPP: book your tickets ONLINE beforehand to guarantee your place. If it’s full you won’t be able to enter the museum. Have fun guys! The Team working there is really nice and cool, they do a great job. My problem are the ticket prices. I have to pay 16.50€ per person, I invited my Friends so i paid 66€ for 4 adults. And actually I would like to get my money back. Thats a lot of money and the only Highlight was the turning tunnel. Hightech light museums in big halls have a lot of expenses, so I would understand higher ticket prices. But this "Museum" is filled with you find on the Internet for free and its so small. You think "Oh you probably can go deeper in the back" and there is just nothing. I was so dissapointed. Even if you interact with everything you are done in under an hour. Would not recommend, really. You can spend your money better. staff, but way too expensive for what you get. They show the typical illusions, not very innovative or creative and very for a museum. For kids more fun maybe but still too pricy. The worst I have ever visited. It is more like a room than a museum. There is nothing much to see. They have printed some of Escher's work and pasted them on the wall. Complete waste of Euro 30 for me and my son. I highly recommend that NOBODY visits this crap. If there was a 0 star option, I would give that. Amazing experience. Fun and good laughs. All the was incredible!! Ryan, Kelly and Anna were always with us and gave us good tips for our pictures, and even helped us solving one of the enigmas. I took my 14-year-old son to of which is in the very centre of Maastricht. As well as the optical there are a number of classic puzzles that visitors can try and solve. If you attempt these then you will have a good visit. If you just pass over these items your visit would probably be quite short. The are very attentive and helpful; they will guide you as to how best use / stage the optical and guide you with the puzzles. There are a number of optical that you can photograph and the are on hand to help you with staging the photographs to get the best results.
