What travellers are saying

Cool spot, close to the oasis Really nice recreation of sheik Zayeds early life and accommodations .

The numerous pictures brought you back to days of yore and highlights of the visit were the Series II Land Rover, the beautiful courtyards and the oasis.

Worth a visit to learn about Al Ain, Abu Dhabi and the rulers family.

Very interesting

There’s not many places in the world we’re you can go into a museum and palace and it costs you nothing. This is very interesting and well worth a visit whilst in Al Ain.

Expecting more

Thinking this was a museum to honor Sheikh Zayed (the father of the UAE) and his family, we were expecting more than just a few empty rooms with no information. The place was completely empty, we only saw one employee sweeping. No one there to...More

Beautiful Reflection of History

I have been to the Sheikh Zayed Palace Museum about 5 times and I absolutely love it. It shows the historical beginning of the country with Baba Zayed. It is a must see for any tourist.

Fantastic place to visit

The Palace Museum is a great place to visit and should not be left out on any visit in Abu Dhabi. A lot of history compressed in one location and a place full of interesting facts. Worth a visit.

Interesting Museum

Easy walk from the oasis so good place to cool off after, especially on a Friday when it opens at 3. Interesting to see bedrooms and living quarters all furnished. Free entry.
