Top Museums in Chicago

From the largest and most complete T-Rex to masterpieces and modern art, Chicago has it all. No wonder it’s called the "City of Broad Horizons," as top-notch museums aim to enlighten, educate and inspire. Whether it’s the vast collections at the Art Institute or learning more about planet earth and the solar system at America’s first planetarium it’s all in Chicago. Here are the most iconic museum stops to include on your itinerary.

Art Institute of Chicago

Just as the aerial view of the Chicago cityscape from Skydeck Chicago takes your breath away, so will the art of the Art Institute of Chicago. Within the walls of this grand museum are endless exhibits of both classic and contemporary artwork from around the world.

  • Included in CityPASS
  • 4 Hours

Museum of Science & Industry

Chicago is a big city. But even within the big city are big museums that are so fascinating and inviting, it could take days to explore each one from corner to corner. The Museum of Science & Industry is no different.

  • Included in CityPASS
  • 4 Hours

The Field Museum

The Field Museum encapsulates a variety of exhibits that bring the pages of history to life through works of art, sculptures, artifacts, and interactive activities.

  • Included in CityPASS

Adler Planetarium

Everyone looks up at the stars at least once in a while. At the Adler Planetarium, you not only get to look at the stars, you get the chance to immerse yourself in the wonders of the cosmos.

Museum of Contemporary Art

Much like the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Contemporary Art is an architectural masterpiece containing some of the world’s most important creative gems.

  • 4 Hours

National Museum of Mexican Art

Chicago is a cultured city, through and through. If you saw the world in the stars at the Chicago Adler Planetarium, you’ll see a vibrant and beautiful new world in the National Museum of Mexican Art.

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.
Chicago CityPASS is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 14307.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from One of the best experiences vacationing in Chicago Our experience buying and using CityPASS was great, good savings but the most important is that it can be selected the most important places that the city oc Chicago offer to the tourists. I really reccommend have one of this pass when visitng the city.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Do you research beforehand! "SAVINGS" may be fake Bought the C3 Pass hoping to save a few dollars. The "Discounted" C3 package actually costs MORE than if we had bought individual tickets. I was hoping that maybe the difference in cost would be covered by taxes/fees, but it does not. total to buy my tickets to Shedd, Field, and Griffin without the pass: $345.10 (this a summation of all costs at time of payment from the website for the exact dates/times which includes all taxes and fees). Cost of C3, $378.00 (also including fees).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great value We purchased the 5 attraction pass for my thoughts day trip to Chicago. We used all 5 but but barely. We chose citypass over c3 because of the additional perks it had such as expedited entry or 3D shows or Sky shows etc. It was a good value.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Building 360 un engaño Si adquieres citypass para tener la experiencia 360 perdiste el dinero porque no te permiten hacerla, te cobran extra, es como si no hubieras pagado y tienes que volver a pagar cuando ya estás dentro del edificio. Las otras actividades le doy un 10 de 10, triste por el 360. If you buy a City Pass for the 360 ​​experience, you've wasted your money because they don't allow you to do it. They charge you extra. It's as if you hadn't paid, and you have to pay again once you're actually inside the building. I give the other activities a 10 out of 10. Sad for the 360.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from an excellent way to save time and money Chicago CityPASS is an excellent way to experience the best of the city while saving both time and money. It offers access to top attractions like the Shedd Aquarium, Skydeck Chicago, the Field Museum, and more — all bundled at a discounted rate. Each attraction included is a must-see, and the CityPASS helped us organize our sightseeing in a smooth, hassle-free way. Whether you’re visiting for a weekend or a full week, it’s totally worth it. Highly recommend for first-time visitors or anyone wanting to get the most out of Chicago!
