Go City Las Vegas passes compared

The short answer

The three Go City passes differ in what they count. The Essentials Pass counts three attractions from a short list, the Explorer Pass counts a number of choices you pick in advance, from two to seven, and the All-Inclusive Pass counts days.[3][2][1] Go City's own page describes them the same way: choose three, choose the number of attractions, or choose your duration.[6]

A pass is an entitlement to choose from a list. Buying one books nothing, and no pass here means you will visit every attraction on its list, so XTOUR shows these passes at the Las Vegas destination rather than at venue pins.

Go City Las Vegas Essentials Pass: 3 Attractions

The Go City Las Vegas Essentials Pass: 3 Attractions has one option, the 3-Attraction Pass. SkyGate's listing says the pass is activated at your first attraction, stays valid for 30 days, and allows one visit per attraction. Its list includes a daytime High Roller ticket, Madame Tussauds, a single FlyOver ride, The Tower at the STRAT, The Mob Museum and a day-or-night Neon Museum ticket, among others. SkyGate's page says included attractions are subject to change and points to the Go City app for the current list and reservation instructions.[1]

Go City Las Vegas Explorer Pass

The Go City Las Vegas Explorer Pass is sold as 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 choices, each valid for 30 consecutive days after first use. SkyGate's page describes a selection of over 40 attractions, tours and activities, and its sample list names Madame Tussauds Las Vegas, the High Roller, The Big Apple Rollercoaster, a Hoover Dam Highlights Tour and a one-day hop-on hop-off bus tour, among others. The page says to use the Go City app to view the included attractions and make any online reservations.[2] XTOUR's reading: the Explorer suits a visitor who wants more than three attractions, or ones beyond the Essentials list, spread over several weeks.

Go City Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass

The Go City Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass is sold for 2, 3, 4 or 5 consecutive days. Each option gives access to over 40 attractions and experiences, and the three-, four- and five-day options add a choice of one premium attraction. SkyGate's page says the list includes a hop-on hop-off bus tour and names the High Roller and a go-kart track among the attractions.[3] Neither SkyGate nor Go City's page gives the full list or names the premium attractions, and XTOUR has not verified them.

Note the day rule: unlike the Explorer's 30-day window, the All-Inclusive days run back to back.[2][3] XTOUR's reading: it suits a short, busy stay where you will use several attractions every day.

Pass entry or the venue's own ticket

Several Essentials attractions are also sold on their own, and the pass entry can be narrower than the single ticket. The Essentials list names a daytime High Roller ticket, while the standalone LINQ High Roller Ticket also has Anytime and open-bar Happy Half Hour options.[4] The list names The Tower at the STRAT, while the standalone STRAT product also sells SkyJump.[5][1] XTOUR's reading: if the evening ride or the jump is the point, compare the standalone ticket before counting it as a pass choice.

How to choose

• Exactly three attractions from the short list: the Go City Las Vegas Essentials Pass: 3 Attractions.[1]
• A set number of choices, two to seven, over up to 30 days: the Go City Las Vegas Explorer Pass.[2]
• As many attractions as you can fit into two to five consecutive days: the Go City Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass.[3]
• One or two attractions only: XTOUR's reading is that buying them on their own is simpler; XTOUR's Las Vegas views, museums and shows guide compares several of them.

Before you book

• All three passes sell child tickets for ages 3 to 12.[3][2][1]
• Check the current list and any reservation rules in the Go City app before relying on a particular attraction.[2][1]
• Attraction opening hours are not in SkyGate's listings, and XTOUR has not verified them.
