Philadelphia CityPASS
Great deal and great places to see!
CityPASS is a very convenient cost effective way to see some of the great sites of the great city of Philadelphia!!
Money saver and a good guidance on fun places
I view CityPASS as a good source to find out fun places at destination city. Philadelphia CityPASS definitely helped me with that.
Amazing Experience
I found out about the CityPASS on my 1st day in Philly and I’m so glad I did because I did not have anything planned. It was inexpensive and perfect. Loved everything about it. I was able to visit 3 attractions without any hassle. I can’t wait to use this again when I travel with my kids.
This is the way to go!
We are new to the Philadelphia area and we were anxious to get out and explore some of the sites with our three kids. We came across the CityPASS and decided to take our last two weeks of summer and dedicate it to exploring. This was truly the way to do it! We used every pass and got our money's worth.
Great Purchase
I bought the city pass during my recent trip to Philly and it made getting into several sights that required timed tickets so easy. It was definitely a great purchase and well worth the price!
Philadelphia CityPASS is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 928.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect package for variety We purchased a city pass for our family of 4. We were touring the city quickly with a limited time line and had the opportunity to visit all 3 attractions/museums we selected. I would 100% do your research first on the locations you want to go to ensure you don’t miss anything with open and close times. Overall, incredible value for what we experienced!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for our family Our family party of 6 adults and 3 kids were very happy with CityPASS. The pass was easy to use, and we saved a substantial amount of money on admission fees.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Value The CityPASS was a great value; I believe I saved about $60 with the C5 pass. I had no issues using it at the aquarium, bus tour, zoo, Museum of the American Revolution, and Franklin Institute. I was worried about the required same day reservation for the aquarium, but I visited on a weekday morning and was able to get in easily. If you plan to go to the aquarium on the weekend or a holiday, it may be better to purchase a ticket separately and reserve a specific date/time.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Can’t turn off useless notifications! Never, ever will I use CityPASS again. The “attraction nearby” keeps popping up, even when I’m standing in the attraction. I can’t even take a second photo without this stupid notice popping up again and again. I keep turning notifications off on the ticket in the wallet. Not even one second later, it turns itself back on. I hate this system!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from CityPass made our trip easier and more enjoyable. CityPASS was convienent and very good value. All the attractions we went to accepted the CityPASS without issue. The flexibility of CityPASS was its greatest value if we didn't get to an attraction one day we just saved it for the next day.
