    Enjoy comfortable outdoor seating onboard with panoramic views on the spacious sundecks. Take in the refreshing breeze while gazing over the waters, scanning the landscape as you cruise 20 miles of the San Diego coastline.

  3. 03.

    Capture photos and videos of the sunbathing sea lions and hear the barking as the pups and adults playfully slide on and off the bait barges as you pass by Point Loma.

San Diego CityPASS
Easy to Use
Took my kids to San Diego and got the City pass. Super easy to use the tickets on the phone. They scan them and you're in to the park; no trying to keep up with the tickets anymore. The CityPASS will save you money and time. I'll use it again when I go back next time.
Absolutely no regrets..!!!!
This is a great deal and was our 2nd CityPass experience. Highly recommended. Of course, we crunched all the numbers to make sure it was. Tickets on the app, worked every time, at everyplace we visited. Do it..!!!
Best family vacation we've ever had!
We bought a city pass for our recent trip to San Diego and it was the best decision. We bought the Legoland plus 3 and we used it fully. We chose the Zoo, Aquarium and the Midway Museum. The pass was so easy to use and we had no issues anywhere. We were able to enjoy so many attractions and we saved a lot compared to the regular prices and we were able to buy the city pass in our home currency which was also really nice. Will definitely buy a city pass again in the future.
Loved sunny California!
The citypass was a great deal and very easy to use. This is the second time I have used it and I would do it again. Thank you for making things so easy!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Way to Experience San Diego Attractions We had an amazing experience using the San Diego CityPASS! We chose the options for LEGOLAND, the San Diego Zoo, the hop-on hop-off trolley, and the USS Midway tour, and every single one was worth it. Not only did it save us a significant amount of money compared to buying individual tickets, but it also made the entire trip so much easier to plan. The app was incredibly user-friendly and made accessing each attraction simple and stress-free—no hassle at the entrances at all. Each experience was unique and memorable, and having everything bundled together allowed us to enjoy more without worrying about extra costs or logistics. I would absolutely recommend CityPASS to anyone visiting San Diego—it’s convenient, cost-effective, and a great way to see the top attractions!
