    We used the pass in Chicago and last year we did a similar one in New York City. The pass works very well. Its very reliable and easy to navigate. In this case we did 5 excursions with it and each place had no issues scanning our pass and off we went. In the end it does save you some money. The amount of savings depends on the number of places, cost per place etc but we found it saved in both Chicago and New York. Some events you can't sign-up as if you were buying the tickets direct however we had no problems with any of the activities we attended.

    BAD experience. Purchased passes for myself & son. Mine worked fine, son's did not. Per Co City, my son should have been able to activate via QR code at first vendor visited. HOURS on the phone with zero resolution. The manager of the boat site, Nico, refused (later a vendor had no problem). Nico blamed it on Go City - neither he nor Go City was being accountable. I ended up having to pay for my son's boat ticket since I wasn't about to have him wait onshore for me -- $58!! Then -- another event we'd reserved was canceled, and GoCity's system refused to let me rebook it. And then the movie tour was also canceled. Be aware that several of the offerings are only available on weekends or just one day a week. It's a racket, deceptive, but mostly - they are absolutely not helpful, do not honor their policies. Would never, ever use this again.

    So easy and convenient to use. Lots of useful information and you dont need to refer to an email for entry - you can just use the QR code to enter. I've used this now twice and will do so for all of my future travels.

    For the two attractions we chose I think I spent more money than I would have if I paid for tickets on site.
