Everything was good . We have to talk to the customer service for help because when we need to reserve the were no spaces available , but they explain that we just need to go straight to the place and show the tickets and we did and everything went just right . We have no problems and save with this instead of buying direct with the business . We definitely recommend it , we have try this in London , NY , San Francisco , and others places , and always works .

The Chicago CityPASS was absolutely excellent! It provided seamless entry to top attractions, saved time with skip-the-line benefits, and offered great value for the price. Everything about the experience was well-organized, and it made exploring the city so much easier and more enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Chicago!

I highly recommend the CityPASS, very good price, and you have a good list of attractions to choose from. You just have to arrive at the attraction you select and show the pass! Very good option.

Great! The only thing I would change is that the aquarium is not mandatory, I am not a zoo or fish person. I would have liked to have included the Field Museum of Natural History instead.

Fantastic great value and so easy to use the City Pass
