The museum wasn't crowded, which made it easy to explore the exhibits, try out all the illusion games, and take plenty of photos. Teachers get complimentary entry plus one guest, which is such a thoughtful perk. Juan, the manager, was amazing, he allowed both of my guest complimentary entry and gave me the coolest flexible pencil as a fun keepsake. The staff were super friendly and helpful, explaining how each illusion worked and helping create them. They even took the pictures, which made the experience even more interactive and entertaining. I just wish the museum were a bit bigger so we could've spent even more time there, but overall it's a unique, fun, and memorable spot that's worth a visit!

My child absolutely loves this type of museum. We have been to illusion museums all over the world…read more We went to similar to museums and places like Berlin and Scotland and Dubai. This one is definitely the smallest one we've been to, but my son really enjoyed it nonetheless. We've seen many of these type exhibits before. Most notably where it looks, as though your head is on a plate and you have lost your body, the table where you reflect and it looks like you're sitting with six of yourself, and the room where depending on what corner you're in you may look very large or very small. That being said it doesn't seem to get old to my kid and he had the best time. They also had some new stuff that he hadn't seen before which he really enjoyed. We spent about 45 minutes here and he had a blast. My only real issue with it was the cost as it was close to $30 a person.

Our guests loved the uniqueness of the booth and how it gives you so much room to take lifetime memory picture, and also its a lot of fun.

I would definitely suggest them to your event because Jose and his wife make you feel so comfortable that they feel like family. You will not regret your choice if you go with Instant Memories!!! If you want your guests to have fun, do it, call them! Best decision I made for our wedding!

But, I love the adorable Disney theme festive gear even on a hot summer day. In the past, I would give this place five stars. But on this visit, I was a bit disappointed. They used to have more variety. They would have on themed clothing, accessories, and more decorations than ornaments. They also used to have more decorations for other holidays, especially Halloween. I bought Haunted Mansion merch the time before this, a and squinted Jack Skellinton shirt before that, plus other things. They also used to have cute items to decorate your car, like the tiny mickey ears. Another complaint from this trip is that some families let their kids who were upper elementary school age, so not babies or toddlers, play ball around the ornaments, and throw items around, I know this sounds petty on my behalf, but really? Does not sound appropriate in a room full of glass. I will be back, but I do hope they return to selling a larger variety of merch.

The Island Mercantile food cart is another home to the viral Cookie Dough Ice Cream sandwich. It was the perfect treat on a hot day. It quite a large sandwich and it does melt quickly. However, it came beautifully wrapped which helps stop some of the melting. The sprinkles in the sandwich were a fun touch and it was an interesting mixture of cookie dough and vanilla ice cream. It can easily be shared with multiple people.

While I was shopping at this store during the holidays, there was a lot of Up merchandise, Disney Pins that were Animal Kingdom theme, and even a discovery series pin! I really liked the coco inspired Merchandise! There were some toys and really cool shirts! I think the largest section of the store was dedicated to Lilo and Stich though. We saw a lot of Lilo and Stich merchandise like key chains, plush, shirts and a lot more! This is one of my favorite stores to shop at inside Disney's Animal Kingdom. Annual Passholder discounts and Disney Visa Cardmember Perks do apply at this store!

If you want to purchase a Rivera tee shirt (and you know you do, they're so choice) they are on display and ready to hit the park. Nice hotel store selling candy, drinks and everything Disney related. One of the nicer hotel merchandise store I've seen compared to other Disney Hotels. Enjoy!

My senior dogs weren't handle the stress well, and Santa grabbed a blanket, put our littlest dog in his lap, and had a perfect picture done in moments. The price isn't cheap, but, with a season pass included, that we will use at least 3 times with different friends and family members, it is very well worth it! Also, the lines weren't crazy. We didn't wait at all on a Sunday night around 8p, and only about 10-15 minutes on a Wednesday night, which is popular because you can bring your dogs. Overall great experience. I'll buy a season pass next year too, if it's a thing. Ps. We wanted a serious group photo and Santa totally played along. I love the picture!
