    this was an amazing experience. Multiple people having completely unique experiences in the same room. The augmented reality glasses overlay and environment on what you see, ensuring that you don't bump into other people. The games are very fun, and diverse. Even one for Art fans: Determine if a work is an Emerging Artist, Famous Artist or AI generated. So of the works fill the room of the three floors. 30 minute self guided tour.

    I had very high expectations for this as I love to attend immersive experiences. I'm sorry to say that attending this experience fell far short of my expectations. Verse Immersive is located in Block 37 in the former Disney space. I bought a Groupon multipass ticket for two. This includes four immersive/VR "shows" using the headset "like NASA" uses. Verbiage says that reservations are required. Nowhere on my confirmation email, the Verse Immersive website said how to make the reservation. This adds to the confusion because the Groupon voucher says to show your purchase at the venue. I won't go into all of the confusion because it's boring to read. To sum up, lots of people are showing up without reservations, the venue was understaffed (though pleasant), the technology was wonky, the VR headsets just ok, the immersive aspects not very sophisticated. We only did Starwalk: a holographic odyssey and the Unreal Garden. We did not finish the two others, it did not interest us. I'm sorry I dragged my friend to this and I'm sorry we paid for parking. If you ever get the chance to see THE INFINITE, a VR experience with footage from the international Space Station in cooperation with NASA, go! It's mapped out so that you will never bump into anyone or grab someone (like I did -/ my apologies) while wearing a VR headset, and you will get to explore the space station and take a virtual spacewalk.

    This was fantastic. We went for our mother-son monthly outing (65 & 40 yo). We had a blast. I bought a pass for 2 VIP through Groupon and it was worth every penny (it was a good deal). We did only 2 of the 4 phases, enjoyed it and had lots of fun for 2 hours. With the VIP you get to go in and out so we went for a bite to eat to Atwood, right across the street. By the time we came back we were told we had to wait and since there was only one more hour to closing time we had the choice of having a free renter for the next 2 phases on a different day of our choice. The people working there were fantastic, kind, helpful, and patient. We are looking forward to our next mom-son's date. PS: This is the best I could do for pictures, we're taken through the my goggles

    It only lasts for 30 minutes, so it's a little pricey but overall a really fun experience. The staff? AMAZING, Robert (I think that was his name) was fantastic, he made our whole trip and was soooo much fun

Being able to see outfits and paraphernalia, and read things about Stan Lee and how great his mind worked was impressive. The last exhibit I saw was the James Bond exhibit. This two was outstanding. I wish I had known it was two separate rooms because I left the first one and thought it was it before tumbling upon the second room which had even bigger and better things. It's impressive how they had the James Bond car on display. I ended up buying quite a bit of James Bond paraphernalia at the end and wear it to this day.

I can not imagine 59 men packed into a sub with 1 bathroom and sharing bunk space. I'm slightly claustrophobic but the tour was only about 30 minutes and the distance toured was short. I can't imagine living on it for an extended period. We spent about 2 extra hours touring the rest of the museum but it must have been a field day for local schools, as it was packed with children. My second favorite exhibit was touring the Pioneer Zephyr train.

I arrived just as…read morethey were opening their doors at 11AM on a Friday, bought my ticket on my phone as the already formed line outside made their way in (don't worry, it moved extremely fast), and was inside roaming around in no time. While I love to roam around museums aimlessly and without much a plan, I knew I only really wanted to spend about 2 hours here. I grabbed a pamphlet, downloaded the museums free app and strolled with a bit of intention. This is a really incredible museum and I got to see so many famous works for the very first time: American Gothic, Nighthawks, and A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte just to name a few! It was not too crowded or busy at all and the security and staff were all so friendly and helpful. In just under two hours, I saw all of the pieces I was hoping too, while also spending lots of time just wandering around. I absolutely recommend a visit!

I was disappointed how this is not accessible at all for disabilities. Sure, they're added elevators. But different elevators do not each have access to every level. There were no tactile things included. Even with the embroidery exhibit, they could have included a fabric to touch but did not. I saw some paintings had audio symbols for descriptions, but I never found how to use that option. That being said, the breath and quality of the art is wonderful. I loved the Monet collection

    Finally visited this River North museum during my return to Chicago. Since I wasn't a CHI/IL…read moreresident, the adult ticket price was $22, however you can also opt for the Pay As You Wish option, which is essentially Suggested Donation. While the museum is 4 floors, the exhibits weren't as plentiful. The 1st floor is basically their cafe. The 2nd and 4th floors are prob the floors with more artwork. The 3rd fl felt like an "in-between" floor. Thankfully, the Yoko Ono exhibit was on display, which featured several interactive activations, like a Wish Tree or writing on a wall, which were fun. Their Museum Shop also spans from floors 1-2. I wouldn't say that this museum has the popular artists. The overall artworks are a mix of abstract, photography, and mixed media. I wouldn't recommend it as a "Must See" for tourists, personally. However, I'm an art enthusiast and still thought it was a decent museum to walk through. Perhaps opt for the Suggested Donation for this one.

Beautiful museum with multiple floors, excellent customer service, plenty of comfortable seating, cool gift shop, and a cafe and restaurant too. It has everything I need! The vibes are good here. I enjoyed all the floors and saw an impressive variety of art. I also wanted to see the Yoko Ono exhibit and I really enjoyed it. I appreciated how interactive it was. There were a few writing stations with activities, such as writing about your mom and taping it to the wall, and writing a wish on a tag and tying it to the wish tree. One room was blue and there were blue markers available and people were encouraged to add to it. Fabulous venue!

I wasn't sure what to expect, and it ended up being so much better than I imagined! All the people working were friendly, knew what they were doing, and helped us have the best experience we could have. I loved every part of it, and it was awesome tying in all the senses to color! The tasting one was so fun, I ended up guessing mine right! I think my husband and I had the most fun with the partner drawing activity, that's a keepsake for sure, haha! Other faves were the poem and balloon exhibit and of course, the ball pit. We came with our 6 year old nephew but I think the adults had more fun than he even did! It was fun to let loose and be a kid again. I was thankful for all the fun photo ops, it made it easier to get great pics without having our phones out the whole time. The only bummer was the ice cream. We paid $1 per person for it and it was just one tiny little ball with a wooden spoon, and I could taste the spoon more than the ice cream.
