We purchased the 7 day Go Boston card. I've read some reviews where people were frustrated about some things. We did have to go a block out of the way for the Hop On Hop off bus and for one of the cruises but it wasn't a big deal for us. We read all of the instructions for each place carefully and so there were no surprises. I suggest you do that. We've also purchased these in San Francisco a few times and loved them. The Hop On Hop Off buss takes you within walking distance of so many of the sites in Boston that you really don't need a car. We used the Hop On Hop off bus on 3 different days. We also traveled to Salem and Cape Cod where we could use the passes as well. Do your homework and see if it will save money. For us, it always does.
The Go Boston Card was perfect for my out of town guests! I purchased the all-inclusive three-day pass for two adults and two kids. They are huge history fans, of which Boston is full of history, and they were able to fit a lot in with three days. The Duck Tour, New England Aquarium, Science Museum, Paul Revere House, along with having fun on the trolleys and all were no line wait with the all-inclusive pass. I would highly recommend the all-inclusive passes because they get to select a premium attraction as well. On hot days no waiting in line and they were able to show their smart phone pass so no fumbling or losing tickets. The four Go Passes were priced amazingly lower than what I would have spent if I were to buy individual passes to each attraction. Go Pass is the Boston Go to Pass for me from now on and is highly recommended even if you don't live out of state with all the selections of activities across Massachusetts not just Boston!
If you're planning to be a serious tourist and hitting the major sites...I recommend doing the GoCard. We did the 3 day so we could get the duck tour included which is at least $50 on it's own. The Urban bike rental was awesome! Excellent staff! If you organize by location you can really fit a lot in. Tremendous value!
I got this because a similar card was helpful in another city. Ended up not being worth it due to weather and the time of year we were there. Also a source of stress (much of the three days was dictated by getting our money's worth rather than what we found interesting). If you are big into museums and guides, go for it. If you like meandering, self-guided sight seeing, save yourself the angst and just buy individual tickets to the aquarium/etc.
Such a good buy! We got to visit so many places and the trolley was definitely so convenient! This is very common in Boston as a tourist and all of the excursions gladly took the pass without being confused. So happy I found this and definitely would repurchase for another city. The only problem is that I thought this pass was for 48 hours but it's actually for 2 days so if u use it late on Friday night, it will count as your one day. However, I called and they were kind enough to give my family another pass. All in all, a great experience!
