History

Go City was created to simplify sightseeing in major global destinations by offering bundled access to popular attractions at discounted prices. The concept focused on flexibility, allowing travelers to choose experiences that matched their interests rather than following rigid schedules.

The New York Explorer Pass was introduced as an alternative to day based passes, giving visitors control over how many attractions they wanted to see without time pressure. This model quickly gained popularity among independent travelers.

Over time, the pass expanded its attraction list to include observation decks, museums, tours, and cruises, becoming a trusted and widely used option for exploring New York City efficiently and affordably.
