Boise Attractions & City Passes
How a city attraction pass works
A city attraction pass bundles admission to several of a city's top sights into one ticket you buy once. The big passes — CityPASS, Go City and The Sightseeing Pass — each cover a different set of attractions and price differently, and what they include changes over time. That is why this page never prints a price or a fixed bundle: we show you the cited attractions and link you to the provider for live pricing, so you compare against the sights you actually want to see.

The city is known for its zoo, historic landmarks, scenic parks, and botanical gardens, making it an appealing destination for families and nature enthusiasts alike. The Boise City, ID Metro Area, home to nearly 846,000 residents, provides plenty of additional attractions and activities within easy reach, including access to three nearby National Park Service sites.
A city pass can be a convenient way to bundle admission to multiple Boise attractions into a single ticket. Rather than purchasing individual tickets, visitors can streamline their planning and potentially gain easier entry to several popular destinations. For current information about which attractions are included in available passes, pricing options, and any other details, visit the pass provider's website directly, as offerings and costs change regularly.
