Infinite Love
I bought the CityPASS when I visited Denver about a week ago. It was convenient, cheap, and it gave me no issues at all. Thank you CityPASS. I will purchase again real soon.
Denver CityPASS is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 916.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Highly suggested CityPASS worked out very well for my trip. The app worked easily and smoothly. It helped to purchase the cityPASS directly from the website rather than another site. Others in our group used a different site and struggled to get their passes available in an easy, convenient manner. Will be using again for future trips and I’d highly suggest it if you plan on going to more than one attraction.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Check that your destinations are open! Bought the 3 event pass. You have to use them in 7 days but on the site they don’t tell you the Denver Zoo was closed for 3 of those days and the main Lego discovery at the museum was closed for cleaning as well for some week ( found that out when we got there). Won’t be taking the grandkids anywhere that week again evidwntly.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from After buying, I found out CityPASS is 7 days only If it was prominently mentioned that the Denver CityPASS is only good for 7 days after the first ticket, (other cities give a bit longer) I would never have bought it. For tourists, I think it could be good. For residents, maybe less so.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great options I bought a CityPASS when the Guardians were in Denver playing the Rockies. There were lots of great options for things to do, but I was sorry the zoo was closed! The art museum and botanic gardens were my favorites, but I also loved learning about Colorado history at the Colorado history center. There were cool planes at Wings Over Rockies and I liked the Tigers at the aquarium. And as a bonus, I got to go to a wedding at the museum of nature and science, so I really did six things on it!
