Is Boston CityPASS worth it with kids?

DependsWith kids

With kids, it depends on the day.

Genuinely saves money and skips some lines if you'll hit three or four of the covered attractions in a tight window — solid value for a museum-heavy family week. The catch: the value evaporates if your interests are the city's many free sights (Freedom Trail, parks, USS Constitution), the menu is limited, and it pressures you into a fixed itinerary.
