The museum is small but lot of artefacts display on UAE history. Nice place to visit and understand the old culture, the people, business and way of living. In a nut shell minimum entry fees but maximum information. A must visit for all.

This museum is very small, from a Western perspective and has to tell the history of such a big city. It is still interesting to learn how fast the city has grown over the years.

The museum was really interesting and very informative. There were many informative displays and an exhibition showing life in the old days which reminded me of Yorvik!

Went as part of a city tour. Half an hour wasn't enough but better than nothing. Well laid out, easy to follow storyboards and explanations. With the Museum being part of the city tour the chances are it will be very busy.
