Ease of Travel

What are CityPasses, Go Cards, and Connect cards? They’re all-in-one discount pass cards to local attractions within a certain city. In cities where attractions are closeby and easy to access, all-in-one passes are an incredible deal because they let you into places cheaper than if you paid for them individually. For many of them, they are valid for multiple days (some CityPasses are valid for up to a year after you first use them) and contain actual tickets so you can bypass the regular lines, which can get pretty big at popular destinations.

CityPasses are available for Boston, New York, Seattle, Chicago, Hollywood, San Francisco, Philadephia, Southern California, and even Toronto. For a city like New York, where you can get all-day passes for the Subway for around seven bucks, a CityPass is an ideal way to see the sights of the city on discount. The CityPass also contains useful information like the site’s hours, dining choices, transportation options and an “insider’s tip.” How much can you expect to save? If you were to see the individual spots on the NY CityPass, it would run $105.50 whereas the pass itself costs only $53. You have nine days to use the NY CityPass (the Boston CityPass is valid for a year!)

Go Cards are similar to CityPasses and are available for Boston and San Francisco, with plans to introduce them for Orlando, Seattle, Chicago and San Diego. Want to travel to Europe? European CityCards also offers similar plans for popular European destinations.
