Top Museums in Chicago

From the largest and most complete T-Rex to masterpieces and modern art, Chicago has it all. No wonder it’s called the "City of Broad Horizons," as top-notch museums aim to enlighten, educate and inspire. Whether it’s the vast collections at the Art Institute or learning more about planet earth and the solar system at America’s first planetarium it’s all in Chicago. Here are the most iconic museum stops to include on your itinerary.

Art Institute of Chicago

Just as the aerial view of the Chicago cityscape from Skydeck Chicago takes your breath away, so will the art of the Art Institute of Chicago. Within the walls of this grand museum are endless exhibits of both classic and contemporary artwork from around the world.

  • Included in CityPASS

Museum of Science & Industry

Chicago is a big city. But even within the big city are big museums that are so fascinating and inviting, it could take days to explore each one from corner to corner. The Museum of Science & Industry is no different.

The Field Museum

The Field Museum encapsulates a variety of exhibits that bring the pages of history to life through works of art, sculptures, artifacts, and interactive activities.

Chicago CityPASS
Vacationing with a family of 5
We have purchased CityPASS now for three cities: Southern California, New York and now Chicago. We have a family of 5 and this makes planning so easy and affordable!! Not to mention not standing in line for tickets!!!
Chicago CityPASS
The CityPASS was the perfect way to plan our stay in Chicago. I was able to show my daughter my favorite places in Chicago, and a few others as well. The CityPASS provided a better price, and skipping to the front of the line was like icing on the cake!.
Wonderful week in Chicago!
After doing much research about CityPASS and other group admission passes of the like, I knew I had to get the CityPASS. Chicago CityPASS gets you into 5 of the top sightseeing places - with an upgraded admission!
Great Price
My family came to visit us from Colombia. It was their first time in the states and I wanted to make sure their first vacation was more than what they expected it to be. When I came across the Chicago CityPASS online I knew it was just what I needed to make their trip memorable.
CityPASS Saved My Vacation and Marriage
We used Chicago CityPASS recently and it was a not only a vacation saver but a marriage saver. My husband and I would typically argue about which way to go and what to do next. The CityPASS was easy to use and offered detailed information as well as discounts.
Chicago CityPASS is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 14190.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pocket friendly! I bought my CityPASS to Chicago. I went to the Shedd Aquarium, Adler Planetarium, Griffin Museum of Science and Industry, the Skyline and the Field Museum. We saved a lot of time and money. The purchase experience was user friendly and the support team contacted us immediately via app when we had questions. We were in a family trip, so purchasing and reserving our visits was super simple. I cannot recommend this enough.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Made this worth it and had a great time! My partner grew up in the Chicago suburbs and it was my first time visiting the city. We had a limited amount of time and debated getting the pass because we needed to visit four of the five options for it to be worth the cost. We ended up getting the pass and visited the Planetarium, Aquarium, Art Institute, and Field Museum and had an absolute ball. Really loved having the option that made planning and visiting hassle-free. Can't wait to visit again and see the exhibits we weren't able to on this trip!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absolutely LOVED the CityPass !!!!!!! I absolutely loved CityPass !!! I was figuring up myself what would be cheaper …. Paying on my own or using CityPass. Best purchase I made going to chicago. No lines, no reservations. It was great. If we don’t feel good one day we just went another. Was there for a week so it was more than worth the money. I will definitely use again. Give CityPass a try …. You won’t be disappointed. !!!
