Most travelers plan to visit 2-3 attractions each day, but there's no limit. The more you do, the more you save. What do you mean by "consecutive calendar days"? "Consecutive calendar days" are days in a row, on a calendar. A calendar day is not a 24-hour period. For example, if you have a 3-Day Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass and visit your first attraction on a Monday evening, it is valid for the remainder of Monday (1st calendar day) and the two days immediately following it: Tuesday (2nd calendar day), and Wednesday (3rd calendar day). Tip: to get the most out of your pass, plan to visit attractions early in the day. Is this just a discount card? Will I still need to buy tickets? No. Passes include admission to each attraction; no need to pay anything at the gate. Some attractions may offer upgrades or special exhibits for an additional fee. Do I need to choose my attractions in advance? Nope, you can choose from the included attractions as you go. What is the age cut off for child cards? Child cards are for children ages 3-12. Most attractions do not charge for children under 3 years old. However, there are some exceptions (especially children's museums and attractions geared toward very young travelers). If you have a child under 3 years old, please check with the attraction directly in advance. You may be charged at the gate. How will I get my pass? Instantly! Choose between 2 options: Use your pass right on your phone with the free Go City Card app. Print your pass and guidebook at home. Links and easy-to-follow instructions for both options will be in your confirmation email. How do I "activate" my card? Simply visit your first attraction! Is my card valid all day? Yes. You can enter attractions any time with the Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass. What is your refund policy? Our Risk Free Guarantee gives you one year from your purchase date to return any non-activated passes for a full refund. How many days should I buy? Most travelers visit between 2 and 3 attractions each day depending on individual preference. Our most popular card is the 3-Day card. What is the Premium Attractions offer? With 3, 4, and 5-Day passes, you get admission to one Premium Attraction on one of the days your card is valid. Can I use my pass at all of the V Theater Shows? You may go to one V Theater Show per day during the life of your pass. Can I hop on the Bus Tour at any stop? Yup! The Hop-On Hop-Off Big Bus Las Vegas tour lets you hop on at any stop along the 2 routes – just show your pass to a Big Bus staff member and board the bus. Click here to download a list of stops. Can I purchase passes on the spur of the moment when I arrive in Las Vegas? Of course! With instant digital delivery, you can purchase and access passes right on your mobile device. Does a Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass expire? Yes. You have one year from the date of purchase to begin using your pass. After one year, it will expire. How much will I save? Compare the price of the pass to the gate prices of the attractions you want to visit to see how much you can save. We give you the flexibility to create your own itinerary and choose the attractions you want to visit depending on your interests. For inspiration, check out some of our sample itineraries, insider tips, and more for info on all the fun things to do in Las Vegas so you can make the most of your time here. Can I visit an attraction more than once? In most cases, you can visit each attraction once per day. Some attractions are valid only once during the life of the pass. Please reference your guidebook for specific information on each attraction. Do I need to make reservations to visit the attractions?  Attractions that require a reservation will display this symbol on the guidebook page. Some attractions require a credit card to hold a reservation. In these cases, your credit card will not be charged unless you do not show up for your reservation. What’s the catch? There’s no catch. Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass has a partnership with all of the participating attractions to make your visit to Las Vegas as memorable as possible and to help you save time and money. Can I share my pass with a friend or sell it? No. The Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass is non-transferrable and may not be re-sold. What happens if an attraction is closed or a tour is cancelled due to weather or other problem? While we do our best to ensure that all attractions are available, events happen that are out of our control. The great thing about a Las Vegas All-Inclusive Pass is that there are so many attractions to choose from. If an attraction is closed, or cannot be visited for some reason, we know you'll find a fun alternative in your guidebook!
