Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good value CityPass really saved us money on the attractions we wanted to see plus extra because of the savings. Easy to use and no hassles.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Educator Discounts? Please offer educator discounts. Yes, the pass is already discounted. However, as teachers, while we bring groups often to cultural outings, our incomes often are paltry at best. That said, we need to see cultural exhibits to connect them to curriculum and make them a worthwhile field trip for often 25+ students. Seems the ROI for free or discounted passes would be worth the initial lost revenue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good deal for week long denver tour. We got the 5 attractions city pass. We chose Day 1: zoo, Day 2: children's museum, aqarium Day 3: nature and science museum Day 4: colorado history center Children loved day 3 the most followed by day 2 (aquarium better than museum) followed by day 4 and finally day 1. Zoo was disliked because of the summer heat. You may want to pick and choose from other attractions (you pick 5 of 8) but these 5 seem the best for most kids ages 5 to 7. The pass is great value for money, more than 50% savings! Very good deal for a week long denver tour.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Value! I bought CityPASS tickets for my trip and it was a seamless experience. It definitely saves you money and is easily used for entry into the listed attractions. Specifically, I used my CityPASS tickets to enter the Denver Art Museum, Denver Museum of Nature and Science, and the Denver Botanic Garden. You do not need a reservation for any of these attractions. I just went to the front desk for all of these locations and they scanned us in.
