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 14479.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from CityPass made our trip fun and easy to navigate! We booked CityPass for our family trip to downtown Chicago and it worked out so well. The two attractions that you have to visit were on our list anyway and definitely worth it. We chose the 360 Observation Deck as my girls absolutely loved the Skydeck and bought tickets for Tilt which were pretty inexpensive and a fun experience especially at sunset! We also chose the Shoreline Architecture River Cruise and Griffin Museum of Science and Industry. The process was so easy using the app and making reservations in advance was also a breeze. I would do this again if we come to Chicago.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great time! We bought CityPASS tickets for us and our grandchildren. Everywhere we went people were friendly and we used the discounts numerous places. I have recommended the pass already to friends that are planning a trip to Chicago and we will purchase the passes again when we return to Chicago.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great experience but dont go to the Shedd Aquarium All the locations in Chicago were great except the Shedd Aquarium! Long ques to enter. If you were late like 5-10 minutes to one show they will put security and draw the curtains not to see the show. Very poor atraction. Very unsatisfied
