At the very top of the Castlehill section of the Royal Mile, this 170-year-old attraction combines a live projection of the city streets onto a screen (Outlook Tower) with a hall of optical illusions, holograms, and a mirror maze. A great option if you are travelling with children or if the Scottish weather is doing its thing — which is quite a frequent occurrence.
Ticket includes access to all floors, optical illusions, and the Camera Obscura terrace with a panoramic view of the city. Online purchase in advance is recommended for a discount and faster entry.
