Everything you need to know about Go City’s Orlando passes

Kennedy Space Center, Gatorland, The Orlando Eye and airboat rides—build an Orlando itinerary that fits your style and budget with a Go City Orlando pass.

The Orlando Eye

Orlando brings the big energy—sunshine, palm trees, and a ton of attractions beyond the theme parks. Think rockets at Kennedy Space Center, glossy fun at ICON Park, airboats across wild wetlands, hands-on museums and wildlife up close. With two flexible options—perfect for families, couples, friend groups or just anyone who loves variety in their sightseeing—Go City Orlando passes keep planning simple and costs sensible. Use yours to zip between I‑Drive highlights, head out to the Space Coast, and fill easy days with airboats, aquariums and mini golf. You set the pace; the app keeps everything in one place.

The basics: what is the Go City Orlando pass?

 

One purchase gets you into a big lineup of Orlando attractions and experiences with two ways to explore: the All-Inclusive Pass and the Explorer Pass.

All-Inclusive Pass

  • Choose a 2, 3 or 5-day pass.
  • Best when you want to do a lot in a short time—stack airboats, museums and ICON Park favorites without juggling separate tickets.
  • Visit as many included attractions as you like on each active day (one visit per attraction).
  • Great for first‑timers and families who want maximum variety and value.

Explorer Pass

  • Choose 2, 3, 4 or 5 attractions.
  • Best for relaxed itineraries—sprinkle a few standouts around pool time, long lunches and evening rides on The Orlando Eye.
  • You’ll have 30 days to use your choices from first activation.
  • Ideal if you’ve got a short list of must-dos or you’re back chasing Orlando highlights on a return trip.

Both options are fully digital, live in the Go City app, and typically save a solid amount compared with buying separate tickets.

Buying and activating your pass

 

  1. Buy online: Head to the Go City website or app for the best prices and live support.
  2. Download the Go City app: Your attraction info, maps, hours and booking links are all stored together here. Log in with the same email you used at checkout and your pass appears automatically.
  3. Activate when you’re ready: The All-Inclusive Pass activates on its first scan and runs for your chosen number of consecutive calendar days. The Explorer Pass activates at first scan and stays valid for 30 days.

Using your pass

Orlando in the Go City app

Open the app, show your QR code at the entrance or check‑in desk, and you’re in—no paper tickets to track. Each attraction allows one visit with your pass. The app has opening hours, directions, reservation notes and any age or height requirements, so you can pivot as the day unfolds. On All‑Inclusive days, we start early, pair an outdoor adventure with an indoor cool‑down, then time a sunset spin on The Orlando Eye. Keep your phone charged; a quick screenshot helps if service drops out.

What’s included?

 

With 35+ attractions, tours and experiences to choose from, there’s something for everyone across the two Orlando pass types.

Space and science

 

  • Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is a must. Tour NASA's launch and landing facilities, get up close to the Space Shuttle Atlantis and watch an IMAX film that makes spaceflight feel close enough to touch.
  • WonderWorks keeps kids and grown‑ups busy with hands-on science, a glow‑in‑the‑dark ropes course, and plenty of ‘press this and see what happens’ moments. It’s fun, air‑conditioned and right on I‑Drive.

Animals and airboats

 

  • Gatorland serves Florida classics—gators galore, a jaunty train and up‑close encounters that make for memorable photos. The jumparoo show is pure Florida fun.
  • Boggy Creek Airboat Adventures skims you across the headwaters of the Everglades. Watch for herons, turtles and gators as your captain threads through tall grass and open water. Morning rides often spot more wildlife.
  • Wild Florida’s airboats and gator park bring you face to face with native species, plus a boardwalk through cypress trees. It’s an easy day out when you want nature with minimal driving.

I-Drive and Icon Park favorites

 

  • The big wheel at ICON Park lifts you 400 feet for big‑sky views across Orlando—time it for golden hour and watch the lights flick on below.
  • SEA LIFE Orlando Aquarium wraps you in a 360‑degree tunnel with sharks and rays overhead, then adds touch tanks and talks that keep kids engaged.
  • Madame Tussauds Orlando is pure selfie fuel—pose with screen stars, athletes and superheroes, then step back out to restaurants and bars around the plaza.

Play days and quirky gems

 

  • Fun Spot America is all about classic thrills—wooden coasters, multi-level go‑karts and midway vibes. The pass typically includes a flexible ride sampler or armband; check the app for the current offer and height requirements.
  • Museum of Illusions Orlando bends your brain with tilted rooms, Ames illusions and plenty of playful photo ops. It’s compact and easy to slot between bigger stops.
  • Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition tells moving stories from the ship through original objects, recreated rooms and knowledgeable guides—slower‑paced and surprisingly absorbing.

Plan ahead

Gators in Orlando

Orlando covers a fair bit of ground, so a little route planning saves time and sanity. We like to cluster days by area: stick to International Drive for The Orlando Eye, SEA LIFE, Madame Tussauds, WonderWorks and dinner with minimal traffic. Dedicate a full day to Kennedy Space Center; it’s a 45–60 minute drive to the Space Coast, and you’ll want time for the Shuttle Atlantis and IMAX shows, plus a break for lunch. Pair Gatorland with an afternoon at Fun Spot or Old Town Kissimmee, or plan an early airboat ride, then cool off inside the aquarium or a museum.

Set time-specific experiences first—airboat departures, Kennedy Space Center IMAX shows, and limited-capacity attractions can fill at peak times. Check the app for any reservation links and build your day around those slots. Orlando weather flips fast: sunny to stormy and back again. Bring sunscreen, hats and a packable rain jacket. When thunder rolls in, lean into indoor picks on I‑Drive and return to outdoor fun once it clears. Driving? Most venues have easy parking, though ICON Park and I‑Drive garages can get busy in the evening—arrive a touch early. Using rideshares? Drop‑offs near ICON Park are straightforward, and you can walk to multiple attractions from there. Lastly, pace the kids—alternate high‑energy stops (airboats, coasters) with calmer ones (aquarium, museums)—and keep snacks handy.

Reservations

 

Some experiences call for advance booking. The app flags what requires a reservation, includes links to book and notes any check‑in steps. Use the same name and email tied to your pass for quick verification, arrive 10–15 minutes early, and bring photo ID if a venue requests it. If your plans change, cancel inside the provider’s window to free up your spot.

What’s the main advantage of Go City Orlando passes?

 

  • Clear savings when you visit multiple Orlando attractions and tours.
  • Flexibility: pick a series of sightseeing days with the All-Inclusive Pass or pick a specific number of attractions with the Explorer Pass.
  • Scan and go: one app for entry, maps, hours and bookings.
  • Freedom to try experiences you might skip if buying individually.
  • Easy budgeting: pay once, then mix space, wildlife and I‑Drive fun with ease.

Is buying a pass worth it?

Kennedy Space Center

If your shortlist includes big‑ticket favorites—say Kennedy Space Center, an airboat ride, The Orlando Eye, SEA LIFE, Gatorland and WonderWorks—yes, you’ll usually come out ahead, and without all the admin of buying multiple separate tickets. Prices for top Orlando attractions can run upwards of $70–$100 individually, so it doesn’t take long for the pass to pay for itself. 

Let’s say you get a 3-day All-Inclusive Pass and visit: 

Day 1

  • Kennedy Space Center ($82.39)
  • The Orlando Eye ($31.94)

Day 2 

  • Gatorland ($34.07)
  • 1-Hour Slingshot Rental ($109)
  • Fun Spot America ($38.34)

Day 3:

  • LEGOLAND Florida Resort ($105.93)
  • Outta Control Magic Dinner Show ($39.39)
     

That’s $441.06 worth of tickets on a $279 pass. That’s some pretty magical savings of $162.06 or around 27%!*
