  • The New C3 New York CityPass

    New York CityPass[spacer height=”20px”]

    The New York CityPass has long been a popular attraction pass with NYC tourists. Anyone who has visited New York City has seen people with the CityPass booklets in hand at the city’s most popular attractions.

    One drawback of the CityPass, though is the price. At $122 per adult ($98 for youths), the pass is a pretty big hit on a budget traveler’s budget. The $122 price tag isn’t a bad deal if you’re going to six of the included attractions

    Other ways to save money: It should be noted that there are other ways to obtain reduced admission to some of the included attractions. Both the American Museum of Natural History and The Metropolitan Museum of Art operate on a suggested admission policy, with suggested admissions of $22 and $25 respectively (you can opt to pay less at either). There are pay-what-you-wish admission hours at the Guggenheim (although those discounted hours can be very crowded).  Circle Line often offers discounts on their cruises. And although there is a $26 admission fee for the 9/11 Museum, it is free to visit the 9/11 Memorial. However, there are some advantages to the CityPass that go beyond price savings.

    But skipping the lines is a great benefit! One of the primary benefits of the CityPass, beyond cost savings, is the ability to skip the ticket lines. One of the first things you will notice when visiting New York City during the busy tourism season is long lines of people outside the major attractions. No one likes to wait in line, and when you’re visiting New York City, there are much better ways to spend your time. Many attractions have special lines for CityPass and C3 Pass holders, allowing you to avoid the wait.[spacer height=”20px”]

    The New C3 CityPass – Pay Less & Pick Any Three Attractions[spacer height=”20px”]

    The ability to skip the lines and focus on three of the attractions with the greatest savings is where the new C3 CityPass shines.

    The C3 CityPass costs $74 for adults and $54 for children and allows you to pick any three of the included attractions.

    You’ll save the most if you use the pass for the most expensive attractions and the ones that seldom have discounts available, such as the Empire State Building, Top of the Rock, Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, and the Guggenheim Museum.

    Some combinations could actually end up costing you more than paying admission separately, so be careful with your choices if you goal is to save money. [spacer height=”20px”]

    C3 Attraction Options[spacer height=”20px”]

    Here’s a list of the available attraction options and their regular admission prices.

    An example 3 attraction combination is Top of the Rock, the Intrepid Sea,Air & Space Museum, and the Guggenheim for a $18 savings over the regular full price of $92.

    Visit the CityPass website for details and to order your C3 CityPass.

     

  • How The New York Pass Works – Pay by the Day

     

    fisheye-960

     

    The New York Pass gives you unlimited access to over 80 participating attractions for 1, 2, 3, 5, or 7 days. The price of the pass varies by the number of days it covers. The use time period begins when you use the pass for the first time. The pass is good for consecutive days and is based on calendar days, not 24 hour periods. So, if you have a two day pass, it’s not a good idea to use it for the first time on an evening cruise. Plan full days of activities to get the most value out of your pass.

     

    Included Attractions

    The New York Pass provides entry to 100+ attractions. Some of the more popular attractions include the American Museum of Natural History, Central Park Bike Rentals & Tours, Circle Line Cruises, Tall Ship Cruises, Discovery Times Square, Empire State Building Observation Deck, Guggenheim Museum, Luna Park at Coney Island, Museum of Modern Art, NBC Studio Tour, New York Botanical Garden, New York Water Taxi, Radio City Music Hall Stage Door Tour, Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, Top of the Rock, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and a variety of walking tours.

    How Much Do You Save?

    How much money you save with The New York Pass depends on which attractions you visit and how many attractions you manage to fit in a day. This pass is best for people who can plan out full days of sightseeing.

If the cost of The New York Pass is less than the total cost of regular admissions, it’s a good deal.

    Other New York City attraction pass options to consider.
