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.

I really felt like I was off balance and going to tip over. It was cool. I feel it is overpriced and the person at the reception area was not the friendliest and she was very slow. Also there was not a whole lot. I would recommend it for ages under 12.

I've had the chance to experience the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue twice--once for my birthday and…read moreanother time with a group of colleagues--and both visits were an absolute blast! The energy from the performers is contagious, and they do a fantastic job getting the audience involved, making the show feel interactive and unique. The food was delicious, and you definitely won't leave hungry since it's all-you-care-to-enjoy. Everything was served family-style, and there was plenty to go around, making it a great value on top of the entertainment. My biggest piece of advice? Save room for the strawberry shortcake! It's the perfect sweet ending to an already fantastic meal. If you're looking for a classic Disney experience that's filled with laughs, music, and great food, Hoop-Dee-Doo is absolutely worth adding to your itinerary. While it's probably a one-and-done experience for me personally, I'm so glad I've done it--not just once, but twice. It's one of those iconic Disney experiences that everyone should try at least once!

Not sure what the big Hoop-Dee-Doo is... Unfortunately, the…read moreshow was more of a Hoop-Dee-Doo-Doo for me. Arriving in Fort Wilderness, the check-in process is very drawn out and poorly executed. It's amazing how simple every other restaurant in Disney can be. If you want your Annual Pass discount, you'll have to deal with a second long line. We were originally excited for a second floor seat, but the layout is just annoying. Swivel chairs line the railing, so you turn out toward the wall to eat and spin back around in a tight area to watch the show. The food could've saved the day being all you can eat and comfort foods. But the servers brought it out in the middle of the acts.. when it's pitch black and we are swiveled around... so it was cold by the time you were ready to eat. The all you can eat was accommodated by the server bringing out a full tray of each item and plopping down one or two items on each of their tables. The cast makes a huge deal with a musical number about the dessert... Strawberry Shortcake.. but it was honestly not the best dessert option. The show was definitely cute and old timey - with the whole place joining in a chorus of This Land Is Your Land and corny jokes, but I would highly suggest you leave as soon as you finish dessert. They hand out washboards and serving spoons to every table... which turns into a nightmare of banging and unnecessary showboating to gain attention from the characters. Was it worth marking off the experience? Yes. Would I suggest anyone venture to do it? No.

I popped in on a whim with my family after grabbing some ice cream next door at Sampaguita. It was pretty quiet on a late Sunday afternoon and we were the only ones in there. My son loved running around and pretending to play on the machines. They also have a cute mini ball pit that he was having a blast with. I decided to get my first gaming card and load 90 credits onto it for $25. The claw games all range in credits from around 6.5 and up. If you opt for the 90 credits and don't win anything, they will give you a free plushie at the end which is a plus. At least you don't go home empty handed. My first few attempts I was majorly faked out thinking I had the prize in the bag only for it to drop 1 second before reaching the chute. WAHHH! I ended up having the most luck with the mini key chain machines and won 3 cute little prizes (see pic). But those credits went real quick and I spent them in maybe 15 minutes, haha. I fought every urge to buy more credits and keep playing, but thankfully my husband said "time to go!" This is a dangerous new hobby for me lol. I like that this spot is pretty chill compared to other arcades I've seen in malls. I'm sure I'll be back to play soon.

The claw machines were fair and I won a decent amount for the money I spent. They have a lot of cool features such as trade-ins for more high-quality plushy's, as well as a little shop section where you can buy figurines and other cool items. The service was also phenomenal. The workers had fixed a plushy that was giving me a hard time and I ultimately won it! The only con I could really say is that it was a little expensive. Overall, I would highly recommend this place, especially if you have little ones who love claw machines and cute stuffed animals.

What. A. Blast. I…read moregot a chance to go to the Magic Mansion last year after I heard that there was a magic show happening at the Dr. Phillips House in Downtown Orlando right around Halloween. Anyone who knows me knows that I'm a nut for Halloween events, and even more so when they're under $30 (I'm 'thrifty,' what can I say!), so I was first in line to get tickets. The house was set up in a really unique way - with magicians at stations around the bottom floor and the large backyard patio. As an attendee you were able to walk around freely and stop at the different stations as the magician was 'performing.' These magicians were certainly not amateurs! Many of them had traveled from around the country to perform at the event and they really put on good, unique shows! There was also food and alcohol available for purchase outside at very reasonable prices ($3-$6 average per small dish). I honestly had a terrific time. I remember thinking that it was a shame that I had gone on the final night that year because I would have wanted to bring some friends and go again the next night! It was just really nice to be able to suspend reality for a few hours, while in a wonderful historic home in the heart of Downtown, being entertained by some incredibly talented (and funny) fellas. I'll absolutely be going again this year!

Anyway, I loved seeing some of the magicians I saw last year and seeing how more intricate their acts have gotten! I have yet to figure out how they do ANY of their tricks/illusions/magic/whatever it's called. Meraux (I hope I spelled that right) from New Orleans was a charmer as always, I think his name is Alex (he did tricks with red, foam balls last year) did some awesome card tricks, and Kostya killed it and got engaged on the last night (awww!), and there were some new ones that were funny and impressive! The best part was once they were about to close and the magicians are wrapping up, one tall redhead magician sat down with these two little kids to do a few tricks just for them. The impromptu side show was exactly what the entire night was about- skilled magicians who genuinely want to go above and beyond to give everyone a magical night. Can't wait for next year!
