Chicago C3
Great value!
Bought the pass for a family trip to Chicago and was pleased with the purchase. App was easy to use, attractions were great.
Helpful
Great list of options to pick from! Choose one excursion for each day of our quick 3 night vacation.
CityPASS was well worth it!
Super glad we bought the CityPASS C3. We did the aquarium, Navy Pier Ferris wheel and Hancock 360. It was absolutely worth it!
Great Value for Short-term Stay
I bought CityPASS for my trip and absolutely loved it. You can choose to see the attractions you want to see with great savings and flexibility of time.
Great way to see the best of Chicago!
We only had 4 days in Chicago and the C3 was a perfect fit. We enjoyed each activity and reservations were easy to make, and revise, as needed.
Chicago CityPASS is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 14585.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Made the trip worth it. I bought the city pass for family. It made going into the attractions they offer easy. Plus, the cost savings was worth it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing Product! We bought the CityPASS once in New York and it worked great so we purchased again for Chicago! Again another fantastic experience using it! We got fast track lines and it was so easy to sign up for the individual entry times at our specific events. I will definitely use it again in the future!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth it! It was our first time buying CityPass, and what a great way to save money seeing the sites in Chicago! I would highly recommend it. We had planned to see the included places so it made sense. The SkyDeck was our preferred skyscraper experience of the two offered (We did both.), and having a CityPass allowed us to use the express lane, bypassing the crowd waiting without a CityPass. We also enjoyed the Shedd Aquarium, the Institute of Art, and the Griffin Museum. We would not do the TILT experience again. (The CityPass gets you to the viewing deck and then a discount on the TILT tickets.) I look forward to buying CityPasses when we go to other cities.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Such a bargain I am a frequent visitor to Chicago and have often visited the sites available on the CitiPASS. However, in a recent trip with five teenage grandchildren, the PASS proved to be so helpful in choosing destinations and definitely saved money.
