Card was a great value and we thoroughly enjoyed our tour guides who drove the trolley bus. The only problem we had was attempting to pick up our pass at the Viator/Trip Advisor office near one of the stops. Their was no admission allowed by anyone other than employees.

Good way to catch the Hop-on-Hop-Off bus, city transit and access to many sites bundled into one. If you aren't going to use it for multiple days or several museum trips you may get separate tickets for less...but this was definitely convenient. I've looked up similar bundles for european cities London, Paris, Amsterdam and they are a great option for sight seeing.

Very disappointed of the Go Boston Card service. They've made a mistake by activating our card with an old date, so we were not able to access our next destinations. It took us at least 2 hours to fix it by calling them and the call was in roaming. It happened with me and one of my friends, but entire group had to wait for us to fix the problem. _br/_ I would recommend to check for the date when you activate your Go Boston Card at the first place you visit.

Great trip and the process was simple! We turned in our e-vouchers and got our Go Boston Card at the Visitor Center, from there we just showed our card for each activity. Boston is Awesome and 3 days was not enough, we can't wait to go back! There was only one activity listed where there was an extra step, and that was explained. Will definitely use this process again.

Go Boston card only has 9 stops, very spread apart. Long walks to get to stops. Not recommended if you have any problems with mobility or walking!

Best way to See Boston. What an amazing city.
Review by: cashm, September 2017
Did the north freedom tour and the guide was excellent and awesome
Review by: Gillian B, September 2017
I bought the 5 day Go Boston Card. This enabled me to use the Hop on, Hop Off bus for 2 days. We saved a fortune purchasing this ticket on line before we arrived. Visited the Aquarium, Museum of Fine Arts, rode a Swan boat, had a tour of Fenway and many others. Decided to use the special attraction ticket to attend the Red Sox game. Excellent value and a free harbour cruise thrown in too. Would recommend this to anyone visiting Boston.
Review by: Darren T, September 2017
I think the Go Boston card is worth the money paid. One of the drawbacks for us in getting to do more of the activities was that we did not have our own transportation. We had to use public transit so some of the activities we would have done outside of the Boston area we had to skip.
Review by: Eileen R, September 2017
The GO Boston Card was so worth the investment. We bought the 3-Day pass. During our time we did the Duck Boat tour, Swan boats, Fenway Park tour, visited various museums along the Freedom Trail, the Aquarium, the 2-day hop on/hop off trolley, and the Skywalk Observatory. The trolley was the most helpful when we needed a break from all the walking. And each driver gave a tour while riding that added to the experience. Would highly recommend this if you are able to hit the ground running and get in all the sights. But do your research to make the most of your time there. It is over before you know it!
Review by: Susan L, August 2017
We got the 3-day pass and filled it up with: Great whale watch tour saw more than a few humpback whales, freedom trail tour, hop on off trolley tour, museum of fine arts, and aquarium. It was good weather generally and when it rained we went to a museum.
Review by: Christina M, August 2017
Very good deal. Nice tours.
Review by: Alison K, August 2017
This Go Boston card is excellent value as, it does not just include the trolley bus tour but gives you admission to a host of other attractions. We could not avail ourselves of all on offer due to our time in Boston being limited but, the items we covered made the cost of the card well worthwhile. It can be downloaded online so is easy to obtain. Make the Harbour cruise which is just one of many available attractions on the card a must do.
Review by: Leslie R, August 2017
The Boston Go card makes things so easy, and it is really nice that they give you extra activities when you buy the 5 or 7 day card. We when whale watching! The only thing to make it even better is if all the sites in Boston were covered in the Boston go pass.
Review by: MARY S, August 2017
was very good price was good
Review by: John B, August 2017
Great way to see Boston. Did the Fnway Park tour, the Skywalk observatory, the hop on hop off trolley tour, the Freedom Trail walking tour, the swan boats, Paul Revere house, and the Harvard walking tour. The card paid for itself with all these attractions.
Review by: Stanley C, August 2017
Used the card to visit the Skywalk, take the trolley tour, whale watch cruise, Aquarium, Paul Revere's House, Fenway Park tour. Just those things were worth the price of the card could have done even more.
Review by: Justin L, July 2017
This was excellent and a great way to see Boston. The attractions that were included were what we wanted to see, the tour guides very informative and the trains continually came so there was no time lost in getting off to explore and then getting to the next stop. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting or touring Boston. Plus, the price was amazing for all you got. We will definitely do this again.
Review by: theo.camenzind, July 2017
even one star is too much. When we tried to get the first of the attractions included in the Go Boston Card, they told us, that our Go Boston Card is not valid. They told us to contact the local provider. There they told us, that something went wrong with the booking and that they paid back the money to viator. From viator, we did not get anything - neither the information, that the booking went wrong, nor the money. So never book such a package via viator - with single attractions, we never had a problem !!!!!
Review by: Bonita F, July 2017
The go card was easy to use and well worth the money paid. We went on the whale watching tour and loved it.

Save money and time
Review by: Vacationfun3, July 2017
This card was convenient and enjoyable. It was easily accepted everywhere listed. It was definitely worth it. The location sheet listing all the sites in a geographical area was very useful in helping us organize our trip. So many sites to choose from. Boston Duck Tour, churches, House of Seven Gables, Charles River, etc. I definitely recommend this card.
Review by: Eleanor B, June 2017
We usrd it for: CityView Hop-On Hop-Off Trolley, New England Aquarium, Skywalk Observatory, Boston Duck Tour, Museum of Science, Plimoth Plantation, and several other attractions. I feel that we save money and it was very convenient.
Review by: themcardles, May 2017
Highly recommend the Boston card. We saved a lot of money getting this deal.
Review by: Laura G, May 2017
This is a GREAT way to see Boston! Not only could I do the hop-on, hop-off tour, but the three-day pass gave me a free Boston Duck ride in the Charles River! I easily used the value of the card and still had many other things to see. Not only can one skip the ticket lines, but if you just want to pop in and see a venue for a short time, you don't have to worry about paying the full admission fee! I highly recommend this card!

Hard to find place to pick up packets. did not use all of the coupons, but a good idea
Review by: Karen M, April 2017
This tour was amazing!
Review by: Patricia A. T, April 2017
This was definitelly a great way to go. Bought the 3 day pass which worked out well. Was able to do The Freedom Tour, The Duck Tour, The Children's Museum, Aquarium, Science Museum and State House, which saved a lot of money. Depending on your family, you may want to upgrade to the 5 day pass. Doing this would also give you more time, which would be a plus, as you could save the inside activities for a rainy day.

It's a very organized tour. I like it.
Review by: Jenna R, December 2016
This was a lifesaver! It offered so many great things to do! Even after 2 days, it paid for itself. We had so much fun and would do it again in a heartbeat!
Review by: Linda N, December 2016
Once we found out how to get the tour bus, it was great. We had 2 different drivers and they were both knowledgeable and engaging. _br/_ The problem was, I misread the map which indicated where all the attractions were. I thought it was the route map. You know how things are so obvious in hindsight? well, that was my problem. _br/_ So you have to go to the ticket booth to get the ticket for the trolley. _br/_ The other confusing thing is that there are 2 trolley companies in the city and I got them confused._br/_ So, yes the tour was good once we figured it out.
Review by: Amanda H, October 2016
This was a great way to help us outline our plans and save money. We enjoyed Salem, the freedom trail, the trolley, the whale watch and so much more. We will definitely look at doing this option again.
Review by: Brad M, October 2016
We used the trolley, and 3 tours which more then paid for the card. It was very convenient and very easy! Go Boston!
Review by: Christina B, October 2016
Having the Go Boston passes was great! We passed ahead of the huge line ups at some attractions and it was so much easier than having to pay, just show your pass and go. It was really a great money saver too.
Review by: Nathan N, October 2016
The card was very useful. it gains you entry to lots of attractions and is worth the money. The duck tour for me, was not as good as everyone raves about! maybe go whale watching instead. The aquarium is very good.
Review by: rduijzer, September 2016
Super easy and definitely worth the money. The Red Socks game was awesome!
Review by: Roberta S, September 2016
The hop on hop off bus was excellent. We took it a number of times to get to various sights and we took it the first day to get an overall idea of Boston's layout. We also went to the Aquarium which was excellent. We recommend the Go Boston card for at least 2 days.
Review by: raine, September 2016
Great way to see a lot at an affordable price!
Review by: Brian H, September 2016
Use this card and a subway pass to catch all the sites. Wish I could have caught all the items outside of Boston._br/_ Good mix of locations for all ages
Review by: Thomas C V, September 2016
Although the Go Boston card has lots of options, it is difficult in the time you select to really take advantage of a lot of items. Most spots are only open till 5 or 6, which limits what you can do,. depending on how ou are making your way around town.
Review by: Louise G, August 2016
The Go Bus was awesome! It took us every where we wanted to go except Fenway Park. We took the subway to it. We booked it for 2 days but only used it one because we were on the whale watching tour the next day. The bus drivers knew every thing about Boston and they explained all of it to us. The freedom trail is awesome and so was Faneuil hall and the train station and the shopping area. It was just great to hear all about Boston's beginning and it's future will be great! Thanks for allowing us to take the GO BUS!
Review by: Nancy K, August 2016
Great value and made travel and sightseeing so easy! Highly recommend!
Review by: susan l, August 2016
Great way to get an overview of Boston, then we went back to our favorite places! Liked the variety of attractions and how far reaching...all the way to Hyannis in Cape Cod. Even got discounted tickets for the Martha's Vineyard ferry.
Review by: Karen, August 2016
Excellent this card does it all, so much to see and do! Only downfall is most things close at 5pm and your card cannot be used after 5.30pm.. Recommend the freedom trail, if you go on whale watch take some sea sickness tablets, as it is far out to sea and very tough lots of people being sick... You have been warned!
Review by: Landis K, August 2016
Worth the money, very convenient.
Review by: Teresa R, August 2016
Great value for the dollar any many choices of things to do. Was well worth it.
Review by: Daisy P, August 2016
Saved a pile of money! We saw and did much more than we could have afforded to without the card. Boston is a wonderful city, but expensive and the Go Card made our trip truly memorable.
Review by: Gregg N, July 2016
We were going to visit and pay entry to so many of the places included with this card, that it made for a very good value for us. It was convenient, and everyone listed was well aware of the program. When I look at all the places we visited and did, it helped us cover a lot of what Boston had to offer.
Review by: Janice C, July 2016
Not enough time to many things to do and see. The GO Boston Card is simply the best and cost efficient way in touring around Boston .
