Denver CityPASS is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 927.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Very useful Very efficient and easy to use. A little weird with free special attractions that are still included on admission. Basically had to go on trust, it'd be nice if you could show your used vouchers on a null screen. Otherwise excellent.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Resourceful Great resource to a variety of venues. You are limited to number of days to use so choose wisely.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Worth it? Yes. Room for improvement? Yes. Overall I believe the CityPASS to be a good value and would purchase again. My family and I had a short stay in Denver for a conference and found that as long as we made it to 2 of the 3 locations the CityPASS paid for itself. 2 of 3 is all we were able to accomplish and was satisfied with that being so our children spent hours engaged at each location filling a large portion of each day. I enjoyed the aspect of the CityPASS encouraging us to visit the locations that we did because otherwise we may have looked elsewhere for kid friendly entertainment. The Zoo and Museum of Nature and Science exceeded our expectations for us as parents and our children, ages 5 & 3. Because there is always room for improvement i would say the experience would have been better if the lines/entry to the locations were more catering the CityPASS holders. The CityPASS has to then be confirmed at each location, and this process means you have to stand in line with others as if you still need to purchase a ticket for that location. Because the CityPASS QR Code is not a "ticket" and just a confirmation number basically. I feel the QR code received through CityPASS should work as a ticket itself for the venues of choice to allow CityPASS holders to skip the ticket line and go straight the admission line.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from CityPASS was well worth it I purchased a CityPASS as part of a weeklong series of day trips in my city. Beforehand, I researched how much I’d pay without the pass and discovered that by using CityPASS I’d came out ahead. There were a nice variety of venues I was interested in covered by the pass. Using the pass was simple, quick and convenient. I highly recommend using CityPASS to anyone who is visiting someplace new or wants to spend time exploring places closer to home.
