28 million travelers from around the globe have enjoyed using CityPASS® tickets since its founding in 1997. Our tickets offer significant savings of up to 50% on admission to the most iconic attractions in 16 of the most-visited destinations in North America.
We’ve carefully curated the most popular attractions in each destination. With a variety of attraction types, there’s something for everyone, whether traveling solo or with friends or family. Observatories are a fan-favorite for getting a birds-eye view of these spectacular cities; museums offer educational and inspiring opportunities to learn about science, art, music, history, and more; theme parks delight visitors of every age; zoos and aquariums introduce different species of animals and inspire conservation; and sightseeing cruises offer a relaxing, enjoyable way to see cities from the water.
Our mission is to remove the stress of planning and researching all the possible things to do on vacation by providing a simple and affordable way to see multiple attractions while saving money. We aim to make the entire process as convenient and easy as possible.
