Houston CityPASS
CityPASS was a vacation life saver!!
My husband and I purchased two passes and it was THE BEST investment ever. Our weekend getaway was jam packed with exciting things to do. We didn't have to worry about carrying enough money or standing in long lines. Great experience
It was easy to buy online, easy to use and was so worth it. We took the family to Houston to hit up all the museums, zoo, and aquarium; the works. We had an amazing time and had no issues using our CityPASS. We bought it online and printed the confirmation. Easy. AWESOME!!
The CityPASS was the best thing I have ever purchased for one of our vacations! It gave us so many things to do and at a very affordable price for a family of 5! I will purchase a CityPASS every time we go on vacation from now on! The BEST option for having fun around Houston
This is really the best option you´ve got. I had family visiting for a week and we decided to give it a try...it was totally worth it! The options available are on point, plus you get amazing discounts and coupons...all of this for a considerably lower price than you would if you paid for each option individually. So go for it! Best Bang For Your Buck.
CityPASS ROCKS! I am a single parent to 3 awesome kiddos. This year I had family visit from CA and needed to show them the great state of Texas, but on a budget. I found the Houston CityPASS while doing a search and was I excited.

CityPASS is a must!
I bought CityPASS for my family of four on our recent trip to Houston and it was fantastic. It provided us with so many options to visit in Houston, allowing for fun and educational opportunities. The pass was so easy to use everywhere, a simple scan and we were on our way! The museums were all impressive, the staff in each was knowledgeable and friendly and there was a great variety of activities available within the different attractions.

Needs improvement
The Space Centre quoted no need to book in advance but when I arrived the Mission Control Door was fully booked The staff told me it’s a known issue with Cittu Pass but it’s not been fixed yet, so please FIX it
Secondly on my 9th day I planned to go to the Fine Art museum on Monday, when I turned up it was closed Monday and Tuesday and I was told I could not use it Wednesday the 10th day

Great option
The city pass was perfect for us. Honestly, it was a no brainer. It saved us money and there were no issues at any of the locations. I was concerned there may be a lot of hidden fees or confusion with locations taking the passes but it was seamless. I thought it was a perfect option for anyone wanting to learn and enjoy what the city has to offer.

No wait times
We always recommend CityPASS! The best part is not having to wait in the long lines to buy tickets because they are loaded in the CityPASS app.

Worth doing!
CityPASS is great value and covers all of the places you’d want to see in Houston. Glad I purchased it. Only criticism I have is I would like the validity to be at least 2 weeks. 9 days to go to 5 attractions just means it’s a packed time if you’re on holiday and want to take things easy. Or even have an option where you can pay more to extend the pass.

Fun time
I bought CityPASS when my grandchildren came to visit, and it saved money while we could enjoy all the places they wanted to go. Easy to use.

Wonderful
I bought two adult and one child tickets through CityPASS for our recent trip to Houston, TX. While it does not cover everything, such as the train ride at the aquarium, the tram tours at NASA, or the visiting exhibits at the Natural History Museum, we were still able to save money and get in to see these attractions with very little hassle.
