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.

Seattle, a major city in the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue Metro Area with a population of approximately 4.1 million, draws visitors with iconic landmarks and cultural institutions. The city is known for its observation decks offering views of the Puget Sound and surrounding mountains, vibrant markets showcasing local produce and crafts, art museums featuring contemporary and regional works, and museums exploring diverse subjects from natural history to maritime heritage. Eight nearby National Park Service sites also provide outdoor recreation and historical exploration within reach of the city.

Many visitors choose to explore multiple attractions during their stay, and Seattle offers city passes that bundle several popular sites into a single ticket. These multi-attraction passes can streamline planning and ticketing for travelers interested in experiencing the city's museums, markets, and viewpoints.
