CITYPASS MAKES VISITING CITIES EASIER

Planning a trip to an American city and don’t want to do a bunch of tedious research to find out what there is to do? CityPassTM, a visitor program already established in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Seattle, San Francisco, Chicago and Hollywood just added Southern California to their list. The San Francisco program also includes unlimited rides aboard cable cars and all other Muni transportation.

CityPass is the blueprint for a city vacation, allowing visitors to concentrate on city touring instead of research, planning and ticket line delays. CityPass ticket booklets represent substantial savings off box office prices. Unlike discount programs, the CityPass booklet contains an actual ticket to six of the city's popular attractions allowing immediate entrance, without standing in ticket lines. Tickets include instructions about how to use public transportation and an "insider's tip" on the best time to visit each attraction.

Tickets may be purchased at any of the CityPass attractions in each city or at some city visitor centers, and are available in advance on the Web (see below.) CityPass ticket booklets have no expiration date, but are good for nine days (14 days in Southern California and 30 days in Hollywood) once the booklet is presented to the first attraction.
