I didn't think it would be a problem to get tickets on-line on the day and tried to get them first thing on the day I was visiting but all the early times were gone and we had to change our plans and visit at a later time that day. That was in the summer but I think it is probably better to book in advance if you can and if you definitely know the day and time you are able to visit.

From their website it looks like it is open Tuesday to Sunday starting at 10:00 AM. I would think a taxi is the best way to get there. We arrived on a cruise and the shuttle bus into the city dropped us a few blocks away from the museum, so we did not need a taxi. If you are on a ship, they should provide a tourist map, which will help. You need to buy tickets. You can do this online. I do not know about tours, but the museum is breathtaking in architecture and easy to navigate.
