I was able to receive the tickets in real-time through the Headout app. That was super convenient. The experience at the the museum itself was stellar. The staff were super considerate. My toddler who is a fan of dinos and animals really enjoyed all the exhibits - especially the T Rex one. The Lego play area was the icing on the cake.

The entry did not go smoothly as there had been problems with both the barcode provided and the app. But a quick call and the subsequent response had been quick, and we did get to enjoy the day. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed talking in particular to one staff from "The Story of Earth", who spoke with us in detail about the origins, including the moon and space artifacts. The dinosaur displays were awesome, and the hunt for hidden tardigrades was very interesting.

We really enjoyed our visit to the Natural History Museum in Abu Dhabi. The entry process was smooth and easy. The interiors were calm and relaxing. The displays were well placed and there were interactive stations which were very interesting and informative. Our time was well spent there and we did not realize that we had spent quite a few hours in the museum. We are looking forward to going back with our grandchildren

Absolutely loved the Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi. A fantastic and informative exhibition where I learned so much, with beautifully displayed pieces throughout. The building itself is stunning, there’s plenty of parking, and the staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming. A wonderful experience and definitely worth a visit!

Opened in November 2025 on Saadiyat Island, and it's already the Middle East's biggest natural history institution — and it shows. The atrium alone is worth the ticket: five massive sauropod skeletons — Diplodocus, Brachiosaurus, Camarasaurus, and a Barosaurus — greet you like a welcoming committee from the Jurassic. The star attraction is Stan, the famous T. rex, staged in a dramatic battle scene with another T. rex — a genuine fossil, not a cast, and it's stunning up close. What sets this museum apart is its regional lens: an entire gallery walks you through Abu Dhabi seven million years ago, when the desert was a lush savannah roamed by four-tusked elephants. It's a side of natural history you won't find told this way anywhere else. The scale (35,000 sqm) means you need a full half-day, maybe more. Interactive displays and digital tools keep kids engaged, and the design — meant to echo natural rock formations — makes the building itself part of the experience.

Visiting this museum was truly an unforgettable experience. Everything about it felt magical, from the incredible exhibits to the atmosphere that made every moment special I traveled all the way from Bahrain specifically to visit this museum, and it was absolutely worth the trip. I learned so much during my visit, and it was amazing to see in person many of the things I had previously read about. The museum gave me a deeper understanding and left me with new knowledge that I’ll always remember I honestly can’t recommend this place enough. I only wish I had more time because there was so much to explore. I hope to visit again in the future for another incredible experience,I definitely couldn’t get enough!
