Go Boston Cards

Planning on a trip to Boston in July. Just found out about the
Go Boston cards. Has anyone ever used them? If you did use the card did you like it? Thanks!

Based on average admission price without the go boston card you'd have to go to more than one place a day. Since many of the activities outside of boston are full day activities (old sturbridge village, for example) I don't know if it would be a good value.

we went to Cape Cod, Boston and Salem last summer and used the heck out of the Go Boston card! Definately have to do the Duck Tour, the Science center is nice and there is a lot of boat/sailing trips tha sounded fun. We used it. If you go to the site it should have a list of all the attractions available. Good luck and have fun!

We used Citypass in Boston. We were there for a long weekend and it saved us lots of money.

I used the Go Boston card during my visit this past September. I figured the individual costs of each attraction and discovered that if you make sure to do the Boston Duck Tour, the Go Boston card is a good value. Without the Duck Tour, you're better off just paying for each attraction individually. My friend and I used the cards for all the major attraction admissions in the heart of Boston, plus did the Duck Tour and used the Trolley that's included. We also used it for a discount on the Fenway Park tour. So, with all that, it paid for itself and saved us a few bucks.

I used one a couple of years ago and it did save us some money. I can't remember exactly what we did but we did go on the Duck tours and it was a lot of fun. Before I bought one I figured out what I was going to do and priced it out and it was cheaper to get the card.

We go down to Boston a few times a year and for the most part we just pay admission to where we are going but if depending on what we do I would definately get one again.
