I suggest checking out the audio guide option when you arrive; it's super informative and gives you a deeper understanding of the palace without spending too much time reading displays.

I recommend wearing comfortable shoes; the floors can be quite uneven in places, and I found myself wishing I had better footwear toward the end!

I recommend bringing a small picnic to enjoy in the gardens after your visit. There are some lovely spots to relax, and it saves you money on overpriced snacks nearby!

My advice is to check their special exhibitions first! Sometimes they have cool temporary shows that the regular admission doesn't highlight but are totally worth seeing.

I suggest visiting on a Tuesday or Thursday - it's way less crowded and you'll have more space to explore the exhibits. Plus, you'll get better photos without random strangers in them!

If you can, go on a Wednesday afternoon. The museum is less busy, and you can really take your time to soak in Chagall's vibrant works.

My advice is to check out the museum café. It’s not super cheap, but I found the view and the ambiance worth the cost.

Don't skip the museum shop! They have lovely art prints and souvenirs that are reasonably priced, way better than the overpriced stuff in tourist traps around Nice.

I suggest checking out their website beforehand for any temporary exhibitions or events. I totally missed a fascinating modern art showcase when I visited, and it would have added so much to my experience!
