Highlights
- Must do South Island attraction
- Vast range of puzzling illusions
- Ideal activity for friends and family
No visit to Wanaka is complete without stopping in to experience Puzzling World.
Experience everything Puzzling World has to offer with this great value-for-money COMBO, which includes the following:
The Great Maze - Puzzling World developed the first of the world's modern-style mazes. Have loads of fun cracking this mind bending puzzle designed to entertain people of ALL ages. Allow 30 minutes to 1 hour (Emergency doors are on hand if a quick exit is required!)
Glow Rooms (x2)- The latest additions, āGlow Safariā and āParadox Laneā offer fully unique, immersive experiences with striking geometrical designs and optical trickery at play.
Tilted House- This illusion room is tilted at an angle so when you enter your brain compensates and straightens the room at the expense of the displays. Things now seem to hang at impossible angles creating mind bending fun and great photo opportunities.
Hall of Following Faces - 168 giant models of famous faces appear to turn and watch you. A world unique encounter where the famous follow you left and right, up and down.
Ames Forced Perspective Room - from the outside looking in this room appears perfectly normal but in reality it is cleverly distorted to shrink or enlarge it's inhabitants. A technique used in The Lord of The Rings film to create tall and tiny people, this Alice in Wonderland type experience is always a favourite.
Sculptillusion Gallery - Puzzling World's largest illusion room is a showcase of visual trickery at it's best. Explore over 20 larger than life sculptures, artworks and illusionary displays.
Also onsite for all to enjoy are the Leaning & Tumbling Towers (great photo opportunities) and the Puzzle Centre Gift Shop & CafƩ - relax and try your hand at the tables full of puzzles while you enjoy light refreshments, or shop for gift and treats from the amazing range of puzzling oddities only found at Puzzling World! Oh, and you MUST visit the toilets while you're here for even more photo opportunities!

Puzzling world
Very interesting eye opening experiences. Lots of variety. The maze was a little difficult so we bailed after first corner. Puzzles on tables while having coffee were great.
