It is not stated, but if you are looking for sunset reservation slots for the Sky Deck, you will NOT be able to get them. I'm not sure why this isn't indicated when purchasing, but it was a terrible experience in that I had already made my other reservations. I then had to cancel each one and get a refund for the entire pass. It took three weeks for clarity from customer service on whether I could get a sunset time slot. Be warned!

The Chicago City Pass saved us $$$ and saved us from standing in long lines!
We went to the 5 places we wanted to see/do. Worth every penny!!

This was a great deal. My husband and I used it to go to the field museum, aquarium, skydeck, science museum, and planetarium. I was disappointed that we were unable to book the boat tour but understandable since we did visit in February. Make sure to book as much as you can in advance.

I think it’s worth it even though we couldn’t do all five. You will definitely make most of it if you have enough time to travel. Wouldn’t have been able to enjoy Chicago w/o it.

Saved a decent amount of money with the C3 Citypass and went to 3 good museums. As long as you understand how it works, and if you need to make a reservation at some of the places, then it works very well.

Hard to reserve. Some links do not work(365 tilt) so we couldnt use the last attraction from our 3 attractions list. Some other attractions (mob and crime tours) are not included in the city pass. Horrible experience. I rather buy next time each attraction per use and not spending so much money for 1 or 2 credits. If you do it, do not buy more than 1 or maybe 2 per day. But I would rather do it straight with the people from the show/attraction.
It is my honest opininion. City Pass for Chicago it is a scam.

Great deal, and the number of attractions makes this worth it. All of the places on list are sights you need to see - so it makes it much easier to include them all on your trip.
Wish there was a City Pass for iconic Chicago food, lol.
