Your experience
Save with this combo ticket and enjoy two completely different sides of Edinburgh. Spend time puzzling through interactive illusion galleries and rooftop viewpoints, then step into a live theatrical journey through the city’s darker history. Getting started You can begin with either attraction, depending on your schedule. Show your mobile ticket at the entrance to Camera Obscura and World of Illusions or at Edinburgh Dungeon, then enter at your selected time slot. What to expect Camera Obscura and World of Illusions Set inside a historic Royal Mile building, this attraction blends classic optical science with modern interactive exhibits. Move freely across five floors, testing perspective, light, and balance before heading to the rooftop terrace for open views across the city. Features:
• Five illusion filled floors: Explore more than 100 hands-on exhibits including mirror mazes, distortion rooms, light tricks, and visual puzzles that challenge how you see and interpret space.
• Rooftop terrace views: Step outside for 360 degree views across Edinburgh’s skyline, spotting landmarks, rooftops, and surrounding hills from above.
• Victorian Camera Obscura show: Watch a live projection of the city created using lenses and mirrors, demonstrating nineteenth century technology that still works using natural light.
