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!

Very useful
I'm very happy I bought CityPASS tickets for San Francisco because I did not have to pay more. However I'd like it to have more attractions to go.

My husband and I bought CityPASS, as we went to the San Francisco Museum of Science.
It worked out cheaper to buy this as we got passes for other places as well. We are kiwis (NZers) so went to the San Francisco zoo, SFMOMA and a cruise on the Red/White boats on the Pier 44. You could have used it at the Aquarium on the wharf at Pier 39, as another option.

Cheaper than buying the single attractions
I enjoyed citypass it made visiting multiple places in SF cheaper. We got the boat trip for almost free.

Best way to explore cities!
I'm extremely satisfied with my decision of buying City pass tickets to go around San Francisco as I not only saved on money but also got to explore some must do landmarks and activities! Definitely recommend everyone to opt for this especially for first time visitors!

Great Value to see the best landmarks
We've purchased the CityPASS for Toronto and loved it so when it came to planning our trip to San Francisco, we knew we had to get it there too! It's such a great way to make time to see and experience landmarks and get to know the city.
Only one excursion required a booking and our flight was delayed so we were unable to make our booking. CityPASS was great to work with and rectified our situation in a timely manner. Definitely recommend CityPASS for all cities they offer it for.
