Overall value for money. Statue of liberty Island was included in package, however we didn't know until we reached the island that going up on statue was not included. This was bit disappointing. Maybe should have been explained better.
5Go City is definitely worth the purchase - 5 out of 5 stars!
We have used Go City a couple of times now for different cities and the experience has been great. The list of attractions is very comprehensive. For our most recent trip to NYC, we used the all inclusive 7 day pass which kept us busy with many options to choose from for the entire week. The passes are so convenient and easy to use. We will definitely be using Go City for any trip we take where the pass is available.
5App alone is worth it
Not sure of savings, however, having tickets and booking all in the same app for various attractions was a big plus. Even if not savings, the app alone is worth booking. Just need to be mindful that some attractions require additional costs for different experiences (which is clear when booking and you can even upgrade when booking).
5Excellent value
We had a fantastic experience with the Go City Pass. Definitely recommend, it offers value for money and access to all the major tourist hotspots.
5Great way to see lots in a week!
Great way to see all the sights of NYC with just one ticket!
4Very helpful
The pass is very convenient to have, all those great options to choose from that really help you to organize your trip. Sometimes at a location the code won't go through, but they always let you in because they know the Go City pass. I was very happy that I got it.

About New York City
New York City packs skyscrapers, famous museums, Broadway theatres and dozens of distinct neighbourhoods into five boroughs that hum day and night.
Manhattan is the classic first stop. Times Square glows above the theatre district, Central Park stretches for blocks between the Upper East and Upper West Sides, and the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building and Rockefeller Center define the midtown skyline. Downtown, the 9/11 Memorial, Wall Street and the Brooklyn Bridge sit close together, and boats run out past the Statue of Liberty to Ellis Island.
Top-ranked sights in New York City: Statue of Liberty, Central Park, National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
