The Museum of Illusions in Copenhagen is such a fun and mind-bending experience! It’s a perfect blend of entertainment, science, and creativity — making it a must-visit spot whether you’re with friends, family, or even solo. Every corner of the museum has something interactive — from rooms that play tricks with your perception to puzzles and installations that challenge your brain. The Vortex Tunnel and the Upside Down Room were definite highlights for me — they totally mess with your sense of balance and perspective in the most fun way. What I really liked was how hands-on the entire experience was. It’s not just about looking at exhibits but actually being part of them. You can click some really cool and quirky pictures here — so definitely keep your camera ready! The staff was super friendly and helped us understand the illusions better and even suggested the best photo spots. It’s not a very big place, but you can easily spend 1-2 hours having a great time exploring, laughing, and getting amazed.

It was truly a captivating experience. Imagination ran wild, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. The illusions were masterfully crafted, leaving me in awe and wonder. Every moment was an invitation to suspend disbelief and embrace the impossible. The artistry and creativity were evident in every detail, transporting me to a realm of pure enchantment. I left feeling inspired and filled with a renewed sense of childlike wonder. It was an experience that will linger in my memories for years to come.

The Museum of Illusions was absolutely fantastic! Georg was an amazing help, they helped us to thoroughly enjoy every single exhibit and talked us through those that were too mind boggling for even my partner and I! I can't recommend it enough!

The museum of illusions was super fun! Even as a solo traveller the staff were so helpful in taking my photos and explaining the different illusions to me. Price is great for everything you get to see & there are explanations for all illusions you see.

This place was amazing, the kids were hooked from start to finish. They had a great time exploring all the illusions. Very interesting finding out how they work and doing the interactive ones. Would highly recommend visiting.

Visited with my wife using our Copenhagen Cards for entry, and we’re really glad we stopped by! The museum is a fun and slightly quirky experience—perfect if you're looking for something a bit different during your time in the city. There are plenty of interactive exhibits that play with your perception and make for some great photo opportunities. We spent about an hour exploring, laughing, and trying to figure out how some of the illusions worked. It’s a family-friendly spot, but enjoyable for adults too. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Copenhagen and in the mood for something light and entertaining.

We visited the Museum of Illusions during our visit to Copenhagen and it turned out to be one of the most unexpectedly fun stops in Copenhagen. It located within the city and easy access to the place. It was mind-bending experience to see the optical illusions. Sometimes it makes that makes you even question the reality. It is not only that we see and experience these illusions we can also play and experiment with them. Every exhibit puzzles you and invites you to play and pose. The staff were friendly and encouraged interaction, offering to take photos or explain the science behind each illusion. Sometimes they come and help. The whole museum is not very large but— perfect for a one to two -hour visit filled with laughter and sometimes we want question them even after experiencing it. It is great for couples, families, and persons of all ages who love quirky experiences. I highly recommend that you go with a companion to take your pictures. For children t is combining entertainment with education. There were over 70 mind bending exhibits that will shock out senses and puzzle out perceptions. For us it was a place like we have never been before.
