Ja’Vonne and I recently became tourist in our own city by using the Chicago CityPASS. With the CityPASS we were able to visit five out of seven major Chicago attractions at a much discounted price. The CityPASS also put us on the fast track to the head of lines and entrance to some exhibits.
We had a great time going from attraction to attraction. I think our favorite was the Skywalk on the Skydeck of Willis Tower. I was a little hesitant to step out on the Skywalk high above the streets of Chicago but Ja’Vonne convinced me to go for it and it was awesome.
We found that the CityPASS was a great and economical way to enjoy the city.
