Seattle CityPASS
Excellent Value and Selection
We highly recommend getting the Seattle CityPASS. We were really overwhelmed with all of the activities when we started planning our trip through Seattle; there is so much to do. It gave us a really well rounded tour of the highlights of Seattle.The Way to Go
For your money's worth, the CityPASS Seattle is the best way to go. Not only did it include the best attractions in Seattle for the adults, it was perfect for the children, too.We Rocked Seattle
Our family of four had great fun touring Seattle's best sites! Despite being locals, we don't often get the time to see all the fun family destinations that Seattle has to offer. These passes paid for themselves within the first two locations compared to regular entry fees.CityPass Seattle
This was one of the coolest things we have ever purchased while traveling and I would recommend it to anyone! We saw all of Seattle, with two little kids, and we did it for half the price.A no-brainer if you visit Space Needle and more...
Two trips to Space Needle alone is almost the price of the Seattle CityPASS. If you do anything nearby like Chihuly and MoPOP, you're already ahead.

Amazing Deal
I did not know of CityPASS until some research I did while visiting Seattle. I purchased the tickets and it was the best decision I did. I had a great time and will definitely be looking at other cities that CityPASS is in for the future.

Great deal
Our hotel mentioned it to us and I’m glad we got it because it made it a lot easier for us to see multiple spots in a reasonable time frame.

Seattle CityPass
Bought 5 Seattle CityPass for family that was visiting. We chose Space Needle, Chihuly Garden, MoPOP, Argosy, Aquarium. With the Space Needle, it said you can go twice in 24 hours, but the fine print is that if you go in the morning, you can go back within the last 3 hours of that day. If you go at night, you can go back within the first 3 hours of opening the next morning, so it’s technically not 24 hours. The aquarium is very underwhelming. The new one is pretty, but it’s basically one giant bowl that you can view from multiple angles. I don’t recommend the aquarium. The parking in Seattle is ridiculous too. It’s $40/day up by the Space Needle, and I spent over $120 for 4-5 hour parking across the Argosy Cruise location.

CityPASS Seattle Family with teenagers review.
Seattle CityPASS is an incredible deal, especially when traveling with teenagers! We used it on our recent trip and loved how it made exploring the city easy and budget-friendly. With teens who can be hard to impress, the CityPASS gave us access to a great mix of attractions that kept everyone engaged and entertained.
The pass includes the Space Needle, which offered breathtaking views and was a huge hit with the teens. They loved taking selfies from the top! The Seattle Aquarium was another favorite, with lots of hands-on exhibits and fascinating marine life. Having options for the Museum of Pop Culture and the Chihuly Garden and Glass allowed us to pick activities that interested everyone.
One of the best parts was how convenient it was. We saved time and money, and with the pass, we could skip some ticket lines, making it easier to navigate the day. Seattle CityPASS truly made our trip more enjoyable, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Seattle with teens. It keeps the whole family happy, and we definitely got our money’s worth!

Did all the touristy things at a great value
We had such a great time with our CityPASS experience. The best part of Seattle, is so many of the attractions are within walking distance from each other. This made it so easy to park once nearby, and visit all the stops together. Pay attention to opening and closing times (Chihuly was wrong on Google) and plan your stops to take advantage of the evening return to the Space Needle.

Great, money-saving choice, with a caveat
We bought CityPASS for our trip to Seattle. It was absolutely fantastic, but for a couple of issues. One issue: once you've made a reservation, it cannot be changed. We chose the zoo as one of the five sites and the day we had made reservations, it was predicted (and did!!) to pour down rain. We tried to get that changed and found that we couldn't, so we didn't see the zoo and also lost out on choosing an indoor option. Second issue: most places on the list require reservations and those tickets/reservations are often not included in the app, so we were forced to show the qr code from CP and the find the email that contained our specific tickets for said reservation. Its kind of a pain.
The value is fantastic, but I feel like it could be better managed and more efficient to use!

Great Value
I used CityPASS in my recent trip to Seattle and it helped me save money and forced me to see and participate in activities that I normally wouldn't. Great

Best Value for Top Attractions
We only had one day to explore Seattle. It was my first time so I wanted to do all the top attractions. This saved me so much! Easy to use. Although parking in Seattle was tricky for the experiences. I recommend looking into parking apps!

INCREIBLE
Mi familia y yo viajamos sin planes a Seattle, el Citypass fue lo mejor que pudimos hacer, pudimos visitar el zoo, el acuario y muchísimas otras cosas con el mismo ticket, nos ahorramos mucho en entradas al usar esta opción, en ningún lugar tuvimos problemas para redimir los beneficios.
