Philadelphia CityPASS
Great deal and great places to see!
CityPASS is a very convenient cost effective way to see some of the great sites of the great city of Philadelphia!!
Money saver and a good guidance on fun places
I view CityPASS as a good source to find out fun places at destination city. Philadelphia CityPASS definitely helped me with that.Amazing Experience
I found out about the CityPASS on my 1st day in Philly and I’m so glad I did because I did not have anything planned. It was inexpensive and perfect. Loved everything about it. I was able to visit 3 attractions without any hassle. I can’t wait to use this again when I travel with my kids.This is the way to go!
We are new to the Philadelphia area and we were anxious to get out and explore some of the sites with our three kids. We came across the CityPASS and decided to take our last two weeks of summer and dedicate it to exploring. This was truly the way to do it! We used every pass and got our money's worth. Great Purchase
I bought the city pass during my recent trip to Philly and it made getting into several sights that required timed tickets so easy. It was definitely a great purchase and well worth the price!

Great for a trip to Philadelphia
When I went to Philadelphia when the Guardians were playing the Phillies, I got a CityPASS, and it was very helpful to plan my trip. The one difficulty was narrowing things down! I ended up going with Adventure Aquarium, Constitution Center, Drexel Academy of Natural Sciences, Franklin Institute, and the Philadelphia Zoo - a mixture of history, arts, and sciences. I especially enjoyed the hippos at the aquarium, the US history at the constitution center (and its closeness to the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall!), and the Disney 100th anniversary exhibit at the Franklin Institute. I definitely want to come back in the future and do the things I didn't do last time. I was disappointed the Philadelphia Museum of Art wasn't included, though.

Absolute waste of money
Not fully informative. I bought the city pass but the hop on hop off tour did not have full coverage and it was never mentioned before I bought it. It would never buy it had I been informed fully about hop on hop off bus route.

Disappointed in Philly from
Don't go on a Monday or Tuesday
Attractions weren't open.
We were in Philadelphia for Sunday & Monday nights. I bought CityPASS so we could visit several attractions and save a few dollars at the same time. The 1st attraction I wanted to see was The Constitution. It is closed Mondays and Tuesdays. The next attraction is closed Mondays thru Wednesdays. We only got to use CityPASS at 2 locations. The 3rd one we tried to visit closed at 5pm.....we got there @ 5:15.
Had I known in advance that most of the attractions wouldn't be open, I would NOT have purchased.
If you are going to visit Philadelphia, make sure it's not on a Monday or Tuesday.
