About this tour
The Museum of Illusions Johannesburg school tour is a STEM-focused, mind-bending CAPS-aligned Science and Technology excursion for Intermediate, Senior and FET learners. It is a unique educational stop that brings physics, perception and maths to life in unforgettable ways.
Learners explore optical illusions, holograms, vortex tunnels, anti-gravity rooms and dozens of interactive exhibits — each one a real-world demonstration of how the brain and eyes can be tricked, and the science behind it. Educators link the experiences back to the curriculum on light, perception and problem solving.
Wilrien School Tours handles the full educational excursion package: bus transport (if required) from your school, museum entry, professional guiding and teacher support — making it one of the most popular STEM school tours in Gauteng.
