San Antonio CityPASS
Great Value
I purchased a CityPASS for my family and loved all the places we visited. My kids had a blast and it saved us a ton of money!Super Convenient
We had so much fun and all attractions are close to each other. We are definitely using CityPASS again. Saved a lot using them. Thanks CityPASS.Very fun assortment for San Antonio
Bought the CityPASS for the two of us. Easy to purchase. No questions anywhere we went to use the pass. Perfect and saved money too.Amazing Deal
If you plan on going to San Antonio and want to experience the best it has to offer, I highly recommend purchasing the CityPASS. It will save you a few bucks along the way, and we were able to access it straight from our phones, so that made it even better.Great Money Saver
We were on our honeymoon and on a tight budget. With CityPASS, we were able to see more of the sights without spending a lot of money. Thanks.

Expected more
No military discount on purchase. Other than the river walk boat, everything else is on yourself pretty much. The Zoo with a lot of área closed (not many animals). The garden, same as the zoo

Happy Fun
Bought CityPASS. I haven't had a chance to use them yet, but they're asking for a review. It was easy to buy them. We'll see how it goes when it comes time to use them.

Good way to explore, but time-sensitive
I liked all of the places I went with CityPass and there was a good variety of options. However, I would’ve liked to have more than 9 days to use the pass.

Great for vacation!
We bought a CityPass because it an economical way to explore on our vacation! We crammed all 4 choices into 2 days and saw the San Antonio in a way we would have never done if planned on our own! The Rio Riverwalk tour was phenomenal and highly reccomend.

I have used city pass before and loved it but didn't really think this one hit the mark. The river walk and the art museum was the best, and would do again. Unless you have small kids the other museums were fair. The tower of the Americas was total rip off. The view was mid, and the elevator was probably one of the worst I have ever been in-in my entire life. On top of that parking was flat rate of $20-the highest of any attraction, and we barely spent 30-45 minutes there with hardly nothing to do at the site. I think I would do the city pass again, but not worth it in the location.

Great Value & Choices
Great value. Definitely saved on going to each place separately. Would like more details about what is included. Staff at each attraction are well versed on the pass. Very easy to use at each attraction.

Wonderful way to spend time with grandkids.
It was the easiest way to take my granddaughter on a trip of San Antonio. I wish I would have known about the best trip for a certain age. I found that the San Antonio Museum of Art more for adults. I probably should have gone to the Botanical Gardens. And more information on the tower would have been nice.
