  For those interested in history, this is a great place to visit. It covers some of the excavations from different ages from the Mleiha area. Parking is available outside and visitors can avail of a buggy ride from the main gate, although it is just a 5-minute walk. Adults have to pay 25aed and children between the age of 3-12yrs have to pay 15aed for entry. Family offer of 2 adults and 2 children for 55aed is also available. The centre has artifacts displayed from different eras. The interesting fact is that the area is an ongoing excavation site. From coins to tombs, vessels to jewellery, videos to interactive educational screens, it is worth a visit for understanding the history of the land. It is worth mentioning that the center is quite small and even with a lengthened visit, it shouldn't take you more than an hour. There is also a cafe at the exit.

  Amazing place , quite city , simplicity, well established Archaeology centre ( only need asphalt road last 200 meter) with amazing projector to present the story of human from start. Place that touch the heart with nature . Lovely well informative museum ( disclose with all era ) . Good place for family but prefer if you have 4x4 car . We enjoyed dunes and safari with my 4x4 car . Road to Mleiha stunning ( clean & smooth with many petrol stations and cafeteria) . Nice people and welcomed. Lovely coffee shop attached to centre. Only one advice if they can enlarge the museum and include all kind of wild life.

  Great experience to go with friends and family. Went overnight and the camp is pretty nice. Staff is extremely friendly, we even got taken into their back rooms to see some items that were not in display. Star gazing was very educational. depending on what time of year you go, you may see a lot or little. best thing to do is call ahead and ask the geologist, they will be very helpful. Camp site was really nice, as they had a fire pit, a big carpet to lay down on and separate tables for each group for meals. Tents are regular size, could fit up to 3 people. They will provide an air mattress and sleeping bag (no pillows). washrooms are in decent condition for a caravan. only down side is that the meals are not that tasty,
