Traveler reviews

    ★★★★★10 months ago

    This is a great place for having fun and learning the interesting facts at the same time. There are plenty of different activities and illusion with some explanation in English and Italian. We were the only in the morning and had plenty of time for taking the pictures. The staff was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend the museum to both the children and adults (even our cat Caruso enjoyed the visit).
