Look for the temporary exhibits ahead of time. Some of them were really amazing and I regretted missing a few!

Make sure to grab an audio guide; it's super helpful and gives you a lot of context that you wouldn't get just from looking at the art.

Consider taking a break in the café while you’re there. The view of the water is beautiful and it's a nice way to recharge.

check out the museum shop for unique souvenirs; they're a bit pricier, but i think they’re special and support the art community.

If you're looking to save some cash, consider visiting on a Saturday or Sunday when ticket prices might be a bit lower on certain promotions.

I recommend checking out the museum shop before you leave. They have unique souvenirs that are much more traditional than the ones in the malls.

Don't miss the outdoor area! I almost skipped it, thinking it was just for photo ops, but it's a great peek into traditional life in Dubai

I suggest getting there early, around 9 AM, to avoid the big crowds. It gets busier as the day goes on, and you want to enjoy the exhibits without feeling rushed.

I suggest visiting on a weekday if you can. The weekend can get super crowded and it took me ages to get through the exhibits!

My advice is to check out their website for any special exhibits or events before your visit. I missed one and felt a bit bummed about it.
