Chicago CityPASS
Vacationing with a family of 5
We have purchased CityPASS now for three cities: Southern California, New York and now Chicago. We have a family of 5 and this makes planning so easy and affordable!! Not to mention not standing in line for tickets!!!Chicago CityPASS
The CityPASS was the perfect way to plan our stay in Chicago. I was able to show my daughter my favorite places in Chicago, and a few others as well. The CityPASS provided a better price, and skipping to the front of the line was like icing on the cake!.Wonderful week in Chicago!
After doing much research about CityPASS and other group admission passes of the like, I knew I had to get the CityPASS. Chicago CityPASS gets you into 5 of the top sightseeing places - with an upgraded admission!Great Price
My family came to visit us from Colombia. It was their first time in the states and I wanted to make sure their first vacation was more than what they expected it to be. When I came across the Chicago CityPASS online I knew it was just what I needed to make their trip memorable. CityPASS Saved My Vacation and Marriage
We used Chicago CityPASS recently and it was a not only a vacation saver but a marriage saver. My husband and I would typically argue about which way to go and what to do next. The CityPASS was easy to use and offered detailed information as well as discounts.

Not served well
The museum was closed for 3 days when I am there.
Skydeck looking down part was closed due to the maintenance.
So I didn’t benefit much

Worth the price
Traveled with my family of four to Chicago for 3 days. Citypass was worth the price. Included upgrade for the Willis Tower Ledge alone was worth the cost to skip the long line.

Poor Communication and Customer Support
Poor communication about when certain attractions can be experienced and poor customer support that was rigidly relaying information that didn’t make sense. This resulted in my money being wasted on an attraction that I couldn’t see and CityPASS got paid from me for an attraction which me and my family never experienced.

Read the Fine Print
Read the fine print. There are significant limitations to admission that limit the ROI.
