It truly is Ali Babas cavern. Wandering alone in those narrow galeries full of items, all of which for sale really was like a treasure hunt. Highly recommended for the experience alone and to buy souvenirs at a reasonable price.

Not a museum as such. But a must see nevertheless. All the souvenir stuff you never wanted to buy at airports in one spot. Great pashminas, old (but still very much functional) drums, lamps etc. etc. Make sure to get to the darker parts of the dungeon - they are renovating, but hopefully keeping part of the old store to discover some exotic things in the dim light and smells of old wood.Also great place for getting your paintings, posters or pictures framed. Very friendly, competent, quick and reasonably priced.

Not worth the time, there are some good things you might find but good for people living Dubai. Unless you want to ship those big collectors item back home. Plus you can find the same in India for cheaper price.

I loved the way I was received at the Museum. Very kind and very nice people. The place is huge, you can see many things and you can buy every item you will find there, including items from Indonesia and Egypt. The location is away from the city center, but in 15 to 20min you will get there. I recommend. Thank you.

If you are looking for a great place for your home decoration or to have some good souvenirs, this is the right place.Kind and helpful employees and they will try thier best to make you satisfied.The only reason why I didnt give you 5 stars is that its too hot inside and there is no AC, Im not talking about the Cashier area Im talking about the sections inside.

Its just a too expensive scrap shop not a museum at all. Tour guides gets commission to bring tourists there and they charge 5 times higher prices for everything thats available on local stores in other areas. If your tour guide brings you there, definitely he is planning to cheat you. Just get rid of that basturd.

Fuelled on coffee is the best way to approach this museum as it spreads over four warehouses, with tiny corridors and millions of items, making it the biggest souvenir establishment in Dubai. You can find anything from Arabic style lamps, ceramics, wood carvings, coffee and tea sets, shishas and traditional crafts here. This museum used to be more of a marketplace, where haggling was a common practice, however, today, all prices are standardized, taking away the concern of being robbed. The Antique Museum also shares its revenue with charitable organizations. Thus, every time you make a purchase here you will be making the world a better place by contributing to a worthy cause.

One of the best hidden jewels in Dubai. You will find probably anything there. There are vintage products that are on sale and others that they distribute to shops that sell dubai memorabilia. Go there because the prices are so much cheaper.

It has wide collection of artifacts from all over Africa and Middle East. Good collection for home decor and garden artifacts. Its more of a store than a musuem. Worth a visit if you are looking for wooden, metal or ceramic decor.

Great variety of souvenirs at a ridicules price. After haggling will eventually come down. But still expensive. The worker lies through his teeth to get a sale. Sold me a perfume for £50. Which I later found on eBay for £15. Hes a good liar and I was gullible and stupid. All items priced really high. Avoid. Save your time and keep your money. Dont feel like a mug afterwards.

Ignore the name, this is a fantastic emporium selling all manner of weird and wonderful items. A great place to pick up a present or to take visitors and prices are more reasonable than touristy places with a great selection. Youll also find many items that youd thought could only be found in museums or someones attic from 40 years ago. Definitely worth a visit.

A family business with an amazing collection of antiques and nice souvenirs, much cheaper than the ones in the malls. The staff was really helpful and informed about the products and quite honest, not wanting to sell us bad quality when we asked for it. We bought many things and they gave us a good discount at the end. They sell anything from simple oil lamps to original Arabic perfumes, Very good quality pashminas (the whole range from low quality cheap ones to high quality expensive ones), jewelry, ceramics, wooden boxes, carpets...and sooo much more. An absolute arabic experience. 100% recommended.

This place is so awful!!! They will try to sell anything for you as they called special/ unique things. They will grab all things that youre interested in to a bag. This is not a museum, a fake one. It should called itself as a big souvenir shop!

Hidden gem in Dubai. If you are an antique fan then this is the place. Good prices. Huge space. Hundreds of items. The only drawback I saw is that most of the sections are not air conditioned so after some time you start to look for the exit and you will miss many items

Review №77

As mentioned by many others there is a huge amount of trinkets and souvenirs, but everything is priced excessively, haggle like hell because the prices are proper tourist prices, as an example I found some golden cards for 39 Dhs which you can pick in carrefour for 19. I personally was promised some discount and when invoicing I was informed that the items already had a discount in the price, thank them and left the place.

Review №78

Place, what is called the Antiques Museum is a shop. A wholesaler in fact, located in an industrial district, in a large, cluttered (hard to call it otherwise) hall. Dark and unventilated.But you can buy there - of course antique, if not antique - crystal balls, wicker baskets, tricot shirts, gold-plated elephants, leather paintings, reed frames and wooden pictures. Pillows, African masks, Indian statues and luxury Yemeni swords. Antique ostrich eggs, lovely ceramics and sailing accessories of my trust even in the pictures not stimulating. In general, an assortment well known to us from the shops Everything for 1 USD.Getting there is basically a taxi only, back worse - because the tariffs there are not waiting.Well, if you really want this museum, explore this free way ... only ... expensive.Some pictures are from their side. Description according to the impressions of the local inhabitant. Assortment according to their website.If they pass the truth, it is not to their disadvantage. And for me - its bad.Antique Museum, 12B, Al Quoz Industrial Zone, Dubaifrom 9 to 20:30

Great and thrilling shopping experience in UAE i never done in my life....Wonderful organizing wood and handicraft product.

I cant think my home decoration without Antique Museum....Best of luck...i am recommending for every visitors in DUBAI & UAE...

Review №82

Its not a museum... more like a gift/souvenir warehouse... Lots of artistic/cultural products sold here but place is quite messy due to the amount of product they brought in... The promoters/salesman are very annoying... They will try to promote almost everything saying special items or u cant get these anywhere else kinda stuff...

sa
Review №83

Really bad experience, they need only foreign tourist who are bought in by some hotel tour guide. Small gift and souvenir shop, 4 times the price what you get in deira or and other supermarket, like 1 to 10. Nothing fancy or nothing to see. waste of time and energy. Staffs judge you if you are local, visitor or foreign and treat you that way. if you say that you get a particular item at this price outside, they will ask you to leave. PS: its not a Museum just a sovereign shop with third grade and chinese goods, nothing more.

Review №96

From my experience this place is a rip off. There is nothing antique about this place except for the dust. This place has a ton of product but most of it is old dusty crap that is marked up and labeled as antiques. Everything is way over priced. They tried to sell me a deck of cards for 49 AED that I paid 9 for at the old souk. Other trinkets he tried to tell me were gold plated and thats why they were 30 more than at the souk. Waste of time and taxi money to get there
