San Francisco Attraction Passes: The 6 Worth Buying

1.San Francisco CityPASS®

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 365 reviews · 9 days (approx.) · from $89Our pick

Use a mobile San Francisco CityPASS for admission to the California Academy of Sciences, a Blue & Gold Fleet bay cruise, and two chosen attractions. Pick from the Aquarium of the Bay, Exploratorium, San Francisco Zoo, SFMOMA, or Walt Disney Family Museum, then spread your visits across nine consecutive days.

“Worth every dollar. We visited some places that werent on our itinerary but the passes were in with the CityPass. I would highly recommend the Science Museum which has a tropical rain forest and underwater tubes and aquariums that have to be seen to be believed. The Exploritorium was interesting but would be better if you have a couple of kids with you to explain everything to. It also saved us a fortune on transport as the cost is 2.25 dollars whether you are going one stop or several stops. Highly recommend, saves a lot of money in the long run.”

“I was concerned as this was my first time using this service. It was smooth and efficient and am incredible value. We did the Science Center, the Exploratorium, and the Cruise. All excellent. The pdf tickets they provided scanned with no issue at the sites. We had short time in town and bought knowing we would only use 3 of 4 but it was still an excellent value and very convenient skipping the ticket lines. I recommend these guys highly which is good since I starter with a concern. You can buy with no concern.”

“On Saturday we tried to retrieve the muni pass. The visitor center is the place that we were supposed to redeem it. (there was a secondary place but it states it is only open on Sunday) Once we parked and walked over to the address for the muni pass, we found out the visitor center was closed! The night before we tried to use it at the believe it or not attraction, and the attendant told us we could only use it before 5:45pm! All in all, we were only able to use 2 of the 4 activities and we were very upset with that. They need better disclosures or…”
