We had the BEST time today! (As adults in their 30s). Such a cool experience and each room was so unique and fun 🌀 The highlight of this was the wonderful customer service from Ginny at the front! She was so warm & welcoming ☺️ made our experience that much better. When we came in, there was a big group of people that got there at the same time. But she gave detailed and pleasant attention to everyone and when we went in, we hardly overlapped with the group in front of us. She encouraged us to get the glasses… and if you’re questioning it… GET THE GLASSES! 🤓 It makes everything way cooler and slows down your experience to absorb it all in. The maze mirror room and ball pit room were my favorites 😍 Lots of little gems around every turn. 100% recommend and thank you Ginny for making it unforgettable 💘🥰

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with younger children experiencing a sensory maze for the first time, and those who treat it as a premium Queenstown splurge rather than a value activity. Groups who buy multi-entry passes and move slowly through each room get the most from it. Families expecting extended entertainment for the price will leave disappointed.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Buy the multi-entry pass upfront — kids consistently want a second run
Move slowly through each room to extend the experience significantly
🎟️Ask staff about reassurance for children anxious about dark environments before entering
🚗Use toilets before entering as there are no facilities inside the attraction

A truly unique entertainment experience that keeps you on your toes ✨ 🏃‍♂️ I couldn't recommend this place any higher**, the sensory maze in Queenstown is a MUST attend for an duo & above that are looking for an adventurous laugh and some good photo ops 📸 For me and my grandmother, we had an amazing time with laughs, thrills, and close calls with the odd stumble (at our own fault). The lovely German female was hospitable and friendly from start to finish, having a great chat afterwards about the different rooms! The price justifies the experience wholeheartedly (BookMe will always be a handy tool on the belt), I would certainly bring new friends through this 💜 ** although I am gutted to have missed out on the cool glasses everyone else mentioned as we weren't offered them 👓

I went as a solo adult 🤣 it was a pretty neat experience! I could see kids really enjoying this, as well as people of all ages who are neurodivergent (in particular ASD, ADHD, etc) or who are just sensory seeking in general. There are some very dark/pitch black spaces, and one or two spaces that may not be suitable for people who get claustrophobic, however there is a sign at the start to let the staff know if you have anxiety etc and I believe they may be able to keep a bit of an eye on you. All in all I highly recommend, and I would recommend getting the unlimited for an hour session so you can go through as many times as you’d like, in case you miss something the first time. It is also super interactive!

We went as an adult duo - lots of fun while it rained outside to pass time. Took us about 15/20 minutes to get through, not slow and not fast. Loved the mirror maze and the balloon room. Some rooms we moved through faster than the others, and we moved along quicker when we heard people in the room behind us. We booked online and scored a half price adult ticket via their website. Only available for specific times though but that worked for us!

Overview

Odysseum combines the Odyssey Sensory Maze — a sequential journey through themed light, sound and tactile rooms — with Arcadium's retro arcade lineup. Staff are consistently praised for reassuring nervous children in the dark environments. Most groups complete the maze in 15–20 minutes. Kids frequently want to go again, and multi-entry passes exist for that purpose. Birthday party groups are well-catered for by on-site staff.
