Tampa Bay CityPASS
Bargain!
Bought the Citypass for our trip to Tampa area! Did EVERYTHING there was to do, and we enjoyed all of them! Easy to purchase and use. Would recommend getting a Citypass to anyone visiting the area!
Awesome Deal
It's not rocket science - if you have the time to do and see the included attractions, the CityPASS is a absolute steal for the money!!!!

Worth every penny!!! Do not tour the city without buying this first! It was a wallet saver and helped to schedule our week.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic We bought citypass tampa and it was well worth it. Had no problems using it at all 5 at of our attractions. The only issue we found out was that 4 of 5 attractions we had to pay for parking.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from CityPass It’s definitely worth the money if you’re trying to fit as much as you can into your Tampa vacation. We were disappointed with Busch Gardens as a lot of the water rides as well as some of the other rides were closed. The shows are also not as good as they used to be.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from No thanks ! I baught CityPASS Tampa, thinking that we would have an unforgettable experience with the kids, but we’re met with definitely not that. We went to Busch Gardens and absolutely almost 60% of the rides were closed for the week. We had a terrible time there and left only after an hour. Make sure you call in advance to ensure that the rides are even open, especially if you’re coming in from another country. We went to the aquarium and it was packed with school so it was unenjoyable because we couldn’t even go into any of the activities because it was just full with a bunch of kids running around which is OK but at least tell us that there’s a field trips on those days. Then we went to Clearwater excursion, which was way too far out. It was about an hour drive around super lengthy to get on the boat ride was OK but definitely not an experience I would die for. Didn’t see any dolphins. The facilities were way too far apart. You need to travel an hour or so between activities, and you have to ensure that the activities are even open or functioning as normal.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from CityPASS is a great idea, but we were disappointed While we like the discount that CityPass offers to see a group of various attractions, overall, there was disappointment! We are senior citizens from Michigan visiting with no young children. We went to the Florida Aquarium in Tampa, Busch Gardens, the Tropics dolphin tour, Clearwater Aquarium, and ZooTampa. It would have been nice to have another option rather than seeing two aquariums, but the other two optional attractions were geared towards children. Busch Gardens was especially disappointing; parking was $36.00, many of the rides were not running and exhibits were closed! We wanted to ride the Skyride , and after waiting until after 3:00 in the afternoon for it to finally open -we were told it was an extra $5 per person cost (each way) even though the CitiPass said it included ALL rides! We do not ride the roller coasters, so the Skyride was the main ride we were looking forward to…. How frustrating! Additionally, we were thankful that Zoo Tampa did not charge for parking like all the other attractions did! The other attractions were satisfactory, and we enjoyed them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth it! I highly recommend this service! The value for the price is exceptional, especially considering all the features included. One of the standout aspects is the convenience of having a single code that you can scan for access to all the venues. This eliminates the hassle of juggling multiple tickets or codes. Additionally, the ability to add it to Apple Wallet is a fantastic feature that enhances the overall experience. Overall, this has made my visits much more enjoyable and stress-free. I can’t recommend it enough!
