Worth a visit?
It is not a very big museum, and it does not come close to the number of pieces that the Louvre in Paris has. However, the architecture of the place and the objects it protects is spectacular. If you are in Abu Dhabi, you cannot miss it, and if you are in Dubai, it is worth combining it with a visit to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque.
How do I get to the Louvre Museum Abu Dhabi?
To get to the museum, you can take bus 94, which goes through Abu Dhabi Central Station and leaves you at the door. This will be the way for those who do not want to take a taxi regardless of whether they arrive from Dubai or are already in Abu Dhabi.
Travel tip. Combine the visit with the Abu Dhabi mosque, and you can take the same bus in the opposite direction (number 94).
