HOW TO USE THE GOCITYPASS IN NEW YORK CITY

GoCity Pass is a popular tourist pass that allows visitors to access multiple attractions and activities in NYC at a discounted price. The GoCity Pass for NYC typically includes admission to a range of popular attractions, museums, tours, and activities in the city. These attractions can vary, but they often include iconic sites like the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and many more. Go City Passes usually offer flexibility in terms of the number of attractions you can visit. You can often choose between a fixed number of attractions or opt for an "Explorer Pass,", which allows you to choose a specific number of attractions to visit from a larger list during a set number of days (e.g., 3, 4, 5, 7 days). Their All-Inclusive Pass allows travelers to see-it-all, and visit unlimited New York attractions each day of your pass. The Go City Pass can save you money compared to purchasing individual tickets for each attraction. The more attractions you visit, the more you save. Go City Passes are delivered digitally, so you can use your smartphone to access the pass and present it at the participating attractions. Some attractions offer skip-the-line privileges with the Go City Pass, which can save you time, especially during busy tourist seasons. Often, the pass includes a digital guidebook or map to help you plan your itinerary.


Explorer Pass

The GoCity Explorer Pass allows you to choose how many New York attractions you want to visit and save up to 50%. With this pass, you can pick 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 10 attractions to visit from our list of top New York sights, tours, and must-sees. Plus, with the Go City app, you'll have all the information you need at your fingertips. We're talking attraction information, suggested itineraries, a handy map, and more! Visiting your first chosen attraction will activate your pass. From then on, you can go at your own pace – you'll have 60 days to visit the rest. Did you know you can save up to 43% with an Explorer Pass?  If you visited the below 5 attractions without our pass, you'd spend $279.09. With our Explorer Pass, it's only $159. 




Choice 1: Empire State Building

Where better to have that “Oh my gosh, I’m in New York” moment than at the tip-top of the world’s most famous skyscraper? Before heading to the observation deck to recreate that perfect Sleepless in Seattle moment (or King Kong impression, we ain’t going to judge), be sure to take some time to peruse the Empire State’s indoor galleries, which document the history and cultural significance of this iconic landmark. Price without an Explorer Pass: $51.17. 

Choice 2: Big Bus Hop on Hop off 1-Day Classic Ticket

Have you ever heard public transport being described as enjoyable? Skip the cramped subway (sometimes it's not better to do as the locals do!) and get comfy on a Big Bus tour. With two routes to choose from, it's easy to hit up all the must-see NYC spots including Times Square, Wall Street, Little Italy and SoHo. Get on and off as much as you wish, or just sit back and tune in to their digital commentary - it's a great way to learn all about The Big Apple! Price without an Explorer Pass: $80. 


Choice 3: Edge

 Can you ever really ever get bored of gazing over Manhattan from high above? Probably not. But, if you’re looking to make your skyscraper experience even more exciting, Edge is probably the place to go. Travel 100-stories high and take in those views from its tilted glass walls. They'll make you feel like you're literally, well, er, on the edge. You can also test your vertigo with a stroll across their glass-bottomed deck. Price without an Explorer Pass: $50.08. 


Choice 4: Central Park Bike Tour

 We don't know if you've heard, but Central Park is quite big. So biking is definitely a good option for exploring it. Better yet, take this bike tour from Unlimited Biking. Not only will you stop off at the park's most famous spots, but you'll also learn all about the park's history from your local guide. Notable spots you'll visit include Strawberry Fields, Belvedere Castle and Shakespeare Garden. Price without an Explorer Pass: $56.84.


Choice 5: Circle Line NYC Landmarks Cruise

Did somebody say photo op!? Take to the water for a close-up look at Lady Liberty along with plenty of other famous landmarks on the Best of NYC Cruise. Onboard tour guides will give you a heads up when you're about to pass another unmissable view, so you can just sit back and take in the sights with ease. Price without an Explorer Pass: $41.


Other Attractions included in Explorer Pass:

Top of the Rock Observatory: Normal Value-$43.55

9/11 Memorial & Museum Tickets: Normal Value-$33.00

One World Observatory: Normal Value-$47.91


All-Inclusive Pass



Did you know you can save up to 42% with an All-Inclusive Pass? If you visited the below attractions without our pass, you'd spend $416.55. With our pass, it's only $239. That's a total saving of $177.55.



Here is an example of a 3 day itinerary you can do with the All-Inclusive Pass:

Day 1

Big Bus Hop On Hop Off: 1-Day Classic Ticket-Price without a pass: $80

Empire State Building Observatory-Price without a pass: $51.17

Conclusion

GoCity is the perfect pass to use if you are going to visiting multiple attractions in New York City, because it will get quite expensive to visit multiple museums and observatories without having a pass. Go City's Passes is your all in one pass for discovering the best of New York City and although prices may seem pricy at first glance, it actually isn't once you calculate the cost of visiting all the attractions, and doing activites like cruises and the Hop on Hop off.
