One visitor specifically called out the facilities and sparkling-clean toilets.
Site transport
Free buses connected parking and the main entrance, while people movers helped visitors move between zones.

Tips for a Better Visit
Arrive early. Arrive before opening; one midweek visitor arrived 30 minutes early and avoided queues.
Book slots. Install the Expo2020 app beforehand and use smart queue bookings for popular pavilions.
Wear comfort. Wear comfortable shoes and carry water; the site involves substantial walking and waiting.
Plan days. Do not attempt the whole site in one day; reviews suggest planning several visits instead.
Track parking. Note your parking location so the free bus can take you back to the right area.
Choose transit. For a less stressful arrival, one visitor recommended taking the metro or a taxi.

The Bottom Line
Head Office | Expo City Dubai sits in Dubai South and is described in the reviews mainly through its Expo-era visitor and event setting. People came for large international events, country pavilions and the architecture itself, while business-oriented visitors also described the office as a place to begin a business at the Expo City site. The strongest draw was the built environment: open spaces, canopies, gardens and landscaping were designed as one walkable experience.
Visitors specifically mentioned the Pakistan Pavilion, Dubai Ports and Emirates Airlines pavilions, and one review singled out the Expo Passport as a fun way to collect stamps. Staff were generally described as polite, informed and helpful, and the toilets were called sparkling clean. This is a large site rather than a quick stop.
Reviews mention six-hour visits, tiring feet and pavilion queues that could exceed an hour. Arrive early, use the Expo2020 app and book smart-queue slots where available. Comfortable shoes, water and a fully charged phone are sensible preparations.
Transport planning matters too. Free buses served parking and the main entrance, while people movers connected zones, but parking areas were extensive enough that visitors were advised to note where they left the car. Food choices were also described as limited by one family visitor.
