Worth it! We went twice in 30 days
I purchased this for Mother's Day weekend with my son and it was an excellent value. We ended up doing the Golden gate bridge cruise and that was amazing! We also did the exploratorium but that day admission was free so I ended up saving one of my three activities. We went to the aquarium and although it was very small it was quick to go through and our favorite part were the touch tanks and shark tunnel. The employees were really nice and we got to touch baby stingrays. I probably would not have paid for this admission on its own but it was a good deal through the go City pass. We ran out of time so I booked another trip to come back and we came back in June within the 30 days and went to the zoo. The zoo was amazing and much bigger than I thought it would be! I will definitely be using go City again!
Response from the operator: Hello There, We are thrilled to receive your feedback. It would certainly boost our confidence as we strive to provide hassle free experience. Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We really appreciate the positive feedback. We're happy to hear you enjoyed using the pass while visiting one of our cities. Regards, Go City

We went to San Francisco . This pass worked for us as we could decide when and where we wanted to visit , turn up and show the digital pass on the app . Everywhere was accepting - and it worked like a dream . I would definately do this again

Why this scores 46
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Go City: San Francisco Explorer Pass: Choose 2 to 5 Things To Do: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Francisco.
How much does Go City: San Francisco Explorer Pass: Choose 2 to 5 Things To Do cost?
+
Prices start at $89 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Francisco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Go City: San Francisco Explorer Pass: Choose 2 to 5 Things To Do take?
+
Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in San Francisco is not rushed.
Is Go City: San Francisco Explorer Pass: Choose 2 to 5 Things To Do worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 57 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in San Francisco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Go City: San Francisco Explorer Pass: Choose 2 to 5 Things To Do?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Go City: San Francisco Explorer Pass: Choose 2 to 5 Things To Do suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 24-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Go City: San Francisco Explorer Pass: Choose 2 to 5 Things To Do?
+
Around 20 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in San Francisco can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in San Francisco and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Go City: San Francisco Explorer Pass: Choose 2 to 5 Things To Do start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central San Francisco within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in San Francisco?
+
San Francisco packs Alcatraz, Muir Woods, Napa and the bay into day-trip range, which makes booking order matter more than anywhere else in the US. Alcatraz sells out weeks ahead, wine-country vans fill on weekends, and the best food walks in the Mission and Chinatown cap at a dozen people. Our ranking favours small groups and guides who live in the neighbourhood they walk. On Outty we rank every San Francisco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small Group Yosemite and Giant Sequoias Day Trip from San Francisco, Golden Gate Bridge Muir Woods Sausalito with Optional Alcatraz, Chinatown, North Beach, Little Italy: 7 Tastings & History. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit San Francisco?
+
September and October, the city's real summer, once the fog season breaks. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in San Francisco?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
