There is parking available nearby, but be prepared to pay a nominal fee, typically around AED 5 to 10 per hour.

  To reach Dubai Museum using the Metro, board the Dubai Metro Red Line from any of the stations along the Arabian Gulf Coast. Travel towards the Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall station and change at Union Station to the Green Line towards Creek. Disembark at Al Fahidi Station. From the station, it is a short 10-minute walk to Al Fahidi Fort. Follow the signs towards Al Fahidi Fort, and you will reach the museum.

• Public Transportation - Bus

  If you prefer taking the bus, check the RTA website for the most convenient bus route from your location on the Arabian Gulf Coast to Dubai. Many buses stop at the Al Fahidi area. Disembark at the closest stop to Al Fahidi Fort. From there, it is a short walk to the museum. Be aware that bus fares typically range from AED 3 to 7 depending on the distance.
