This is the what and where of a 2010 Guide to Atlanta's City Pass. The city pass program offers an efficient and affordable way to see six major attractions in the metropolitan area of Atlanta without buying individual tickets to each venue. The Atlanta City Pass price for adults in April 2010 is $74USD for each adult and $54USD for each child, a savings of over 50%. Atlanta City Pass ticket holders usually avoid lines. Tickets and booklets can be purchased on line and are valid for nine consecutive days.

Georgia Aquarium

Atlanta City Pass ticket and booklet holders enter at the main gate or through the “Express Entry” and are expedited quickly. In addition to the five main aquarium galleries with otters, beluga whales and whale sharks, the pass includes admission to “Deepo's Undersea 3D Wondershow” and a “Quick Dip Tour”. The twenty minute “Quick Dip” is based on availability.

World of Coca-Cola

Presentation of the Atlanta City Pass at the window reserves admission to the next available time. After receiving the timed admission proceed through the arch and security to the self guided portion then to the 4D theatre and bottling line. The best availability is Sunday through Friday before 11:00 a.m. and after 3:00 p.m.

Zoo Atlanta

General admission to Zoo Atlanta and wristbands for admission to all of the kids rides are part of the Atlanta City Pass and visitors can enter either through the main gate or through the express entry.

CNN Studio

The tour is almost an hour and includes a guided walk through the studio. The best time to see live news happening is Monday through Friday from 9AM-3PM. The Atlanta City Pass ticket is exchanged inside the CNN studio box office for a timed tour ticket. The box office is located in the CNN building atrium.

Atlanta Botanical Garden OR Fernbank Museum of Natural History

Atlanta City Pass holders can choose between these two attractions. The Fernbank has a special City Pass sign to expedite entrance and the ticket includes admission to the museum as well as to one IMAX film. The Botanical Garden has a special City Pass entrance and the ticket covers special exhibits as well as general admission.

Atlanta History Center OR High Museum of Art

Either of these attractions are available as one of the six Atlanta City Pass selections. The High Museum has a special City Pass entrance and the ticket includes special exhibits.
