Boston CityPASS
Fun to be had in Boston with the CityPASS
The CityPASS made site seeing so simple. We loved not having to wait in long lines for tickets and the locations on the CityPASS were kid approved. The passes were well worth the investment!
Worth the Savings
The CityPASS for Boston was well worth it. We saved a significant amount of money visiting the museums and taking the cruise tour. Had a memorable time and it was worth it!
Boston CityPASS experience
Tasked by my wife to plan a 3-day weekend in Boston, CityPASS was the perfect choice to save us money and see the sights.
Totally worth it!
I bought a CityPASS for our trip to Boston and it was perfect. We went to the Museum of Science (the best!), the Franklin Park Zoo and the New England Aquarium. It was easy to schedule the visits and the passes were right on our phones. Also the price was just right. There were 4 of us, so technically one of the visits was free. Highly recommend Buying the passes.
What a Bargain!
I spent three days in Boston in mid-December with my girlfriend and thankfully, she got us onto a CityPASS. I had no idea they even existed and in hindsight we saved ourselves the equivalent of a whole night's accommodation!
Boston CityPASS is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 1506.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Value We went to Boston a few years ago for a vacation and the value of this pass was great. we are going again this year 2026 and the value is still the selling point of this pass. Our little one is so excited to visit the city and all the attractions we get to see with this pass again!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Loved the CityPASS, with one exception I didn't like the Museum of Science (a bit over stimulating for my taste) but enjoyed the other places I went on the CityPASS I purchased when I went to Boston in July 2022 for a Yankees/Red Sox game (New England Aquarium, City Cruise, Franklin Park Zoo). Also checked out Harvard Museum of Natural History and enjoyed that as well.
