    Me and my friend had a great time here! It was about $40 for two people for an hour. Honestly I was not expecting this place to have so many photo rooms when we first arrived. The rooms are not just great for cute pics but they are also interactive. My only criticism is that they had a map of all the rooms because we did get lost a few times. They had one at the front but I wish I had one to carry around.

    So I really wanted to love this place but it's just trying to be a Meow Wolf and we've been to every MW they have & this is no were close. I will say there is a few places that are extremely cool inside. Our favorite inside was the dinner. The set up was really cool but other than that, you are paying $20 a person and you only have an hour to do it. You definitely could do it for less time but for the price, it was meh. For a family I think it's pricey, but for like a date night, it's perfect. I can't imagine doing this place in the summer. The only AC place was the ice room.

    Hidden gem We didn't have any expectations as we walked in. Discovering so many unique rooms was a great experience for us

    My daughter and I love this place so much. We come at least once per "season" to experience all the changes they make. This was our third visit and it was the best one yet because they've expanded and added even more attractions. We can't wait for the new season whenever it happens and we will continue to come back time and time again.

    My son & I visited on Friday evening & we had a blast!! There is plenty of free parking. We took our time in each area and took lots of cool pics! My son enjoyed all the interactive stuff. They give an hour time frame which ended up being just enough time so we didn't have to rush through. My son's favorite was the ice cave. He loved the keyboards and the changing lights. It was pretty cold in there which was great!! I thought the Candy land room was the cutest!! This place is great for date night or family time. We loved exploring this place & shall return when the new exhibit opens.

    One of the many experiences

    We took a group of students here and they had a great time! Fun picture opps, interactive room, and cool visual experience.

    This place was so neat. Oscar was AMAZING! He gave us a tour guide and helped explained each room so well. It was so fun going through and interacting with all of the things they had to offer. You're able to use your senses to heighten the experience. 9/10

    Place has become terrible. Many non-functional areas. Not worth the $50 we paid for two people.save your money. It was dirty, run down, and half of the "exhibits" were not functioning, lights were out or the systems were not working. Legit took us like 10 minutes to walk through or less.. I emailed the owner to get a refund cause of the huge disappointment and no response. I also called, and gave them my phone number for them to call and again no one has reached out to me. Poor customer service and facilities are def not worth your time or money.

    I always love a good immersive museum and Wonder Chamber definitely delivered. All the different sets were fun and me and my friend totally got creative with the props. We went towards the end of the night and there was maybe 2 other groups at the same time as us. Everyone was super respectful of the place and we are able to leisurely roam around and take our time getting that perfect shot!

    This place is a must if you're into immersive art or like to get insta famous. There aren't many rooms but it's enough to spend at least an hour to get some nice shots. I really like that you can change the colors of the room with the touch pad in some of the rooms ... which really sets the tone and how you want to take that glam picture. It's a bit pricey considering how small it is ($25!) but it's all about the experience, right? so make sure u take advantage of each space and make the best of it!

    Had the pleasure of checking out the Wonder Chamber ahead of its grand opening and I was extremely impressed by how elaborate the rooms are. The rooms have everything you could need to make a nice photo. The $28 price point is definitely worth it and they offer discounts to veterans and sometimes give discounts to students and teachers. This business is locally owned and operated, so if you're big on supporting local business, this is it. My favorite room was the Edison garden room. Definitely make a point of stopping by this creative studio!

    We went here a week or so ago as part of a ladies night and we had a great time. The workers at wonder chamber are kind, accommodating and will gladly take group photos for you. They come periodically to check to see if there is anything you need. You have one hour to go through all 11 rooms plus a secret room. I thought we wouldn't have enough time to fully take in each space but we had a lot of time to do just that. I love that you can interact in each room uniquely. This is a great place to take children or adults honestly. They have a chalk wall to write down you Instagram handle and a space to write down your fears. They hand you a pamphlet with the room numbers and names of the rooms, (#4,5, 10& 12) were my favorites.

    Last night, my husband and I went here and it was SO MUCH FUN. We only had an hour to go through all of the rooms and we thought an hour wasn't enough! There weren't many people there at all for a Saturday, the girls at the front desk were constantly cleaning surfaces and high-touch objects, social distancing was happening, and the rooms were just amazing. As for masks, the front desk employees explain to you that you must wear a mask and the only time you may take it off is when you're taking a picture. Definitely worth the money and I wish we could've stayed longer!

We arrived at our designated ticket time and walked in through the gift shop. There a staff member showed us to the ticket check in desk. After checking in we stopped at the bar for a little drink to accommodate our interactive gallery. We went with the seasonal adult capri sun and the year round capri sun. The bartender was very friendly and made delicious drinks. Upon arrival I was a little nervous about the experience as some have noted that there aren't many rooms to explore and that it didn't take long for them to go through the gallery. After we finished we can say with confidence that it's worth it. We spend about 55min- 1 hour within the gallery.

Some were really cool, while others I probably could have skipped. I do think it helps going with friends because it makes the experience more fun and interactive. My favorite was the secret room where you pick up phones and listen to anonymous secrets from other people. That one was pretty unique. I also liked the room with all the changing lights--it looked really cool and was fun to walk through. There's also an area filled with balls that reminded me a bit of Chuck E. Cheese, and another section that's basically a maze made out of clear plexiglass panels. When you first walk in there's a bar, and they also have a gift shop. The bar was really backed up as a think there was only one bartender but she was very friendly. The entry process was easy since I bought my tickets online. Overall, if you go by yourself you could probably get through everything in about 35-40 minutes. It was a fun outing with a group, but personally I'd probably save my money and try something else next time.

A sculpture garden surrounds the museum so there's plenty of areas to stroll and take photos. This museum resides in a gorgeous 1920s Spanish colonial revival residence built by Marion McNay. The building itself is art with its wood detailing, arches, and intricate tile ceilings and floors. The actual art collection consisted of over 20,000 items, but only some are displayed and occasionally on rotation. The collection embodied European and American art of the nineteenth century, twentieth, and twenty first centuries. Sooo much to see- paintings, special exhibits, vase collection, Angelica Raquel Mystic Threads, sculptures, and a lovely garden/pond/fountain containing koi. The museum has a gift shop, restrooms, and a special collection of art displayed by many artistic school children. My new found artist I discovered here was Carl Rice Embery. A pure Texan, his art was amazing ! Initially I thought the pieces were photographs, but up close they are actual paintings. That's how realistic they are. Simple Texan scenery.

The staff is super friendly and helpful, and is willing to speak with you regarding anything that has to do with western art. If you really love western art and history, and especially would like to learn more about Texas history, this is a fantastic place to visit :) ! The artwork varies from unique paintings, sculptures, artifacts and photos :) ! There also happened to be a great talk going on about Texas mapping history :D ! I also happened to visit here during the holidays :) ! So both the inside and outside of the museum were beautifully decorated for the holiday season :D ! I have visited a lot of well-known museums in the United States. And although this one is not a huge name nationwide, I liked the fact that it was small to medium-size that it made it easy and stress-free for me to get around and enjoy the various art exhibits :) ! I like visiting all kinds of museums. But for sure, it definitely is meaningful to visit these smaller museums as well because they do feel much more personal and engaging, compared to larger museums that have so many tourists that it can get overwhelming.

I have visited many Museums such as the Huntington Library, the Getty and the Gene Audrey Western Museum. We really enjoyed ourselves. The museum is a perfect size, not too big and not too small. There is a nice mix of what is on display, from an excellent collection of spurs, paintings, and artifacts. My favorites were the paintings. Most museums have very old famous painting, but the Briscoe has a large number of paintings which have been painted recently. Now don't get me wrong, Blue Boy at the Huntington is an amazing painting but the paintings at the Briscoe were so vivid and captivating. I wish I could have purchased at least a dozen of them. The colors were bright, which made me wonder if this is what it would have been like looking at a Van Gouh a year after it was painted? Even though there were contemporary painting, the subject matter was distinctly western capturing a style unlike anything I have seen before. The staff was super friendly and very helpful. For instance, we asked what's the best way to go through the museum. Start one the 3rd floor and work your way down. We highly recommend making a day of it. If you get hungry, take a break and come back. If your budget is tight, the first Sunday is open the Bexar county residence for free. Enjoy the experience.

You can probably guess that we upgraded to the family of 4 year pass ($180, but used our day pass cost to include into that membership). Thinking ahead here, when it will get stupid hot later in the summer time, great way to take the kids to burn their energy and not get stir house crazy being inside all day - great way to break up the day from all the screaming and jumping around. The exhibits: wow, SO much variety! It's basically 2 stories, downstairs is the main floor area, and options! When you first enter, there's giant toy puzzles shaped as gears, then another room that takes you to a full on pretend city arena where there's little tykes cars for these kids to drive around in this pretend city, a HEB store front, airplane simulation, trolley, car wash, vet office, etc. so fun for these kids! Then another room where there's instruments like a giant piano and other fun things for kids to explore. Outside, there are 2 areas, one is a bubble play area to explore ways to play with bubbles in SO many different ways. Another outside area, playground with a giant slide, water play area with boats and things that you can imagine with water. For over stimulated kiddos, there's a room downstairs that's called a "calming room" where it's much quieter than out in the open if you need time to decompress from the chaos. Upstairs, there's a pretend to play with tools and right next to it and where you can assemble flowers. Now food wise, there's a Café Bakery Lorraine downstairs which include their macaroons, sandwiches, snack platter, crossiants, etc. It's a little pricey, but at least it's good! You are allowed to bring snacks, water inside, but not outside food like actual meals. Parking: it's free and first come first served out in the front area.
