Puzzling World is A LOT OF FUN!!! No AI, no screens, just good old fashion fun! The large outdoor puzzle is a fun workout. Just as you think you are there, dam... another blocked wall. Really enjoyed this experience, and it only takes about 2 hours of of your day, which is great, because there is still so much to see and do in Wanaka.

Full description

Welcome to Wanaka's wonderful world of weirdness with a COMBO ticket to Puzzling World!
Upon arrival, you'll see the famous Tumbling Towers and The Leaning Tower of Wanaka which offers great photo opportunities as friends or family appear to hold, push, or rip out the tower, foundations and all.
Then, head into the Think Tank Cafe, where dozens of puzzles await the curious as a massive kaleidoscope ceiling looks on from above. 
The Illusion Rooms are sure to challenge reality as 6 unique rooms, along with ever-changing “walls of wonder” exhibitions and the latest displays will leave you thinking “what the..?!” 
Outside, The Great Maze encourages problem solving, exercise and fun, with over-bridges and underpasses creating the world’s first truly 3-D Maze. Don’t worry, emergency exits for those with limited time, patience, or energy are also built into the maze design!
With so many incredible things to see and do here, make sure to allow plenty of time for your unforgettable visit to Puzzling World.
