San Francisco CityPASS
Amazing
So happy I bought the citypass in San Francisco. It helped make my trip there unforgettable. Would definitely do it again!Great
I bought Citypass for my boyfriend’s birthday to show him some cool places in the city and I thought it was perfect. We went to four different places, and it was extremely affordable. 10/10 would recommend.Great Deal
Easy to use and save you quite a bit of money. Our family had a trip to San Francisco and didn’t know what to do out there and this gave us a great option to enjoy activities as a family while still getting to know parts of San Francisco.Great value for money!
It was a great trip and we loved the city pass . Will definitely recommend !!NorCal CityPASS
We had an amazing experience visiting Northern California and much of it had to do with the activities included within the San Francisco CityPASS we purchased. Thank you, CityPASS, for helping to create lasting memories for my family!

Wonderful! So easy, and 9 days to enjoy it all!
CityPASS made it so easy to get in to all my favorite SF sites. Allowing 9 days to see it all spread it out and made it much more relaxed and enjoyable!

Great Way to See Attractions Around San Francisco!
We bought these to take in some of the local attractions in San Francisco before our cruise! The various attractions offered through CityPass were limited compared to the availability of attractions being offered by the vendors throughout the city! Understand, that were enjoyed ourselves but it would have been nice to have a wider selection to choose from

Definitely worth it.
We weren't sure we would be able to get to all 4 of our CityPASS destinations within our tight schedule. But, even if we only made it to , the purchase would still have been worth it. We did make it to all four, and it saved us a lot. Definitely worth it.

False Ticket Prices
The prices that are listed in the breakdown are incorrect, admission to the San Fran Zoo is $31... at most for weekend and holiday visits.. only $29 for weekday.
Fact check admission costs to visit on your own without the CityPass, I don't think it is worth it!
