Edinburgh's oldest visitor attraction, located at the top of the Royal Mile. Five floors of fascinating, hands-on, interactive exhibits. Where 21st Century tech meets classic illusions and historic science. It's a great day out for all ages. Camera Obscura & World of Illusions is the only place where you can discover the whole of Edinburgh without leaving the room. During a visit anything is possible in this world of visual trickery, from getting lost in the Mirror Maze, to shrinking yourself like Alice in Wonderland. And don't forget to visit the Rooftop Terrace, for the best views of Edinburgh, a photo opportunity not to be missed. Open late all year. A five-star rated visitor attraction and in the top five things to do on TripAdvisor.

Hello! I'm a hungarian university student. Can I use the student discount? (European Youth Card)
A:
Hello and thank you for your question. If your youth card states you're a student, we can accept this. We would also accept a student ID card from your university if you have one.
My partner currently gets PIP. I am her carer but don’t currently have my carers allowance letter or card. If my partner brought her PIP award letter would that be proof enough?
A:
Hi there. Yes, the PIP award letter is enough proof for our Carer discount. Thank you, we look forward to welcoming you for a visit.
Agree with all 3 answers given before me cracking place well worth the visit. No discounts but may get some through your email when you book in, I presume for future visits.
