It all depends on how long you take to look at the exhibits. Some areas we zip through and others we stare in wonder and discuss the genius of the piece. I would definitely go early in the day and allow a minimum of 2 hours for a cursory exploration. It is a beautiful and interesting museum, so you can easily spend 3-4 hours enjoying yourself. Have fun! And go back when you can. It is always evolving! : )
