Seattle CityPASS
Excellent Value and Selection
We highly recommend getting the Seattle CityPASS. We were really overwhelmed with all of the activities when we started planning our trip through Seattle; there is so much to do. It gave us a really well rounded tour of the highlights of Seattle.
The Way to Go
For your money's worth, the CityPASS Seattle is the best way to go. Not only did it include the best attractions in Seattle for the adults, it was perfect for the children, too.
We Rocked Seattle
Our family of four had great fun touring Seattle's best sites! Despite being locals, we don't often get the time to see all the fun family destinations that Seattle has to offer. These passes paid for themselves within the first two locations compared to regular entry fees.
CityPass Seattle
This was one of the coolest things we have ever purchased while traveling and I would recommend it to anyone! We saw all of Seattle, with two little kids, and we did it for half the price.
A no-brainer if you visit Space Needle and more...
Two trips to Space Needle alone is almost the price of the Seattle CityPASS. If you do anything nearby like Chihuly and MoPOP, you're already ahead.
Seattle CityPASS is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 10211.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from A fun guide for a fantastic city! I used three tickets as planned and used two to explore. I am very glad I did!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from CityPASS great concept. needs fine tuning to login CityPASS enabled five events which was fantastic great idea. Very reasonable price however the app was an ever loving pain in the rear for all three of us. Logging in and getting everything to pull up was a nightmare. Trying to get everything in sync was a nightmare. We got so frustrated at one point we were ready to just not even go to the aquarium. We had to go to the front desk show them the phone and let them figure it out and let us in. And this was not the first time that this happened on our 5-day trip. However loved all the events that were offered it was a great vacation this was the only real downfall that caused a lot of anxiety.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Empfehlenswert Deutsch: Wir waren jetzt bereits 10 mal in Seattle (wegen der Verwandten die hier wohnen), aber hatten nicht immer alles besucht. Daher haben wir uns entschlossen den City Pass zu nutzen. Der preisliche Vorteil ist einfach unschlagbar. Die Space Needle bei Nacht war trotz typischen Wetter (Regen) sehr schön und nur zu empfehlen. Das neue Aquarium ist sehr beeindrucken und sehr informativ. Die Hafenrundfahrt ist auch zu empfehlen. Es gibt viel zu sehen und enthält einiges neues. Das Museum of Pop Culture ist ein Muss für jeden der sich für Musik, Kino usw. interessiert. Hier kann man Stunden verbringen! Chihuly Garden war auch für uns neu, künstlerisch wertvoll. Insgesamt hat sich der City Pass gelohnt und nur zu empfehlen. English: We have already been to Seattle 10 times (because of the relatives who live here), but had not always visited everything. That's why we decided to use the City Pass. The price advantage is simply unbeatable. The Space Needle at night was very nice despite typical weather (rain) and only recommended. The new aquarium is very impressive and very informative. The harbor tour is also recommended. There is a lot to see and contains some new things. The Museum of Pop Culture is a must for anyone interested in music, cinema, etc. Here you can spend hours! Chihuly Garden was also new to us, artistically valuable. Overall, the City Pass was worth it and can only be recommended.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing Deal I did not know of CityPASS until some research I did while visiting Seattle. I purchased the tickets and it was the best decision I did. I had a great time and will definitely be looking at other cities that CityPASS is in for the future.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great deal Our hotel mentioned it to us and I’m glad we got it because it made it a lot easier for us to see multiple spots in a reasonable time frame.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Seattle CityPass Bought 5 Seattle CityPass for family that was visiting. We chose Space Needle, Chihuly Garden, MoPOP, Argosy, Aquarium. With the Space Needle, it said you can go twice in 24 hours, but the fine print is that if you go in the morning, you can go back within the last 3 hours of that day. If you go at night, you can go back within the first 3 hours of opening the next morning, so it’s technically not 24 hours. The aquarium is very underwhelming. The new one is pretty, but it’s basically one giant bowl that you can view from multiple angles. I don’t recommend the aquarium. The parking in Seattle is ridiculous too. It’s $40/day up by the Space Needle, and I spent over $120 for 4-5 hour parking across the Argosy Cruise location.
