Review: Go City Oahu Pass

We visited Oahu for the kids’ Spring Break Vacation. We stayed in Waikiki for 9 days as our “home base” but we drove around the island during half of our stay. For this trip, I purchased a Go City Oahu 3 day “All Inclusive” pass. I bought 2 adult and 2 child tickets.

While planning our trip to Oahu, I know there are certain things I want to do with the kids like the Luau, Polynesian Culture Center (PCC) and a visit to Kualoa Ranch. Individual prices cost more than the Go City Pass as you will see below.

How does Go City Pass Work?

There are two types of Go City Pass. An Explorer Pass and All Inclusive Pass. The Explorer Pass let you choose the number of attractions to visit for a set amount. Once you visit your first attraction, you have 60 days to use it. This make sense if you have a specific attraction to visit in mind. The All Inclusive Pass let you visit all the attractions that Go City partnered with for a set number of days. You can pick from 1, 3, 5 or 7 days. Once you visit your first attraction, your pass is “activated”. You then have 14 days to use the pass before it expires.

All Inclusive Pass Itinerary in Oahu

We purchased 3 days All Inclusive Pass for our vacation. This all inclusive pass includes a “Premier Attraction” which is only available for all inclusive option. Our itinerary looked like these.

Day 1 – Travel Day

Day 2 – We used our Go City Pass to visit Kualoa Ranch. We did an early Grown Farm Tour. In the afternoon we visited the Polynesian Culture Center

Day 3 – Beach Day in Waikiki

Day 4 – We took a Catamaran Tour in the morning and a Luau in the evening

Day 5: Beach Day in Ko’Olina

Ko’Olina Beach Lagoon

Day 6: Secret Island Tour in Kualoa Ranch

Day 7 and Day 8 – Beach Day and a stroll in Waikiki

Day 9 – Travel Day

The total cost for individual tickets were $1,732.46 while the Go City passes were $814.14. Our savings were $918.32.

We could have save more by visiting more attractions, but with 2 kids, we like to lay low and stick to a couple of attractions per day.

The Go City Pass is vary easy to use. Go City Pass will ask you to download the app and redeem your tickets. Once redeemed, it will show your QR Codes. I took a screenshot of the QR code and saved it on my photo so it is easy for me to find. Once activated, it will also show you the expiration date. The expiration date is the 14th day once you activated your pass.

Go City Typically have sales going on ALL THE TIME. During the time I bought my pass, Undercover Tourist is the cheapest. You can also check out Groupon because they sell it as well.

Overall, I recommend using Go City. You have to plan ahead, but it can be totally worth it with some big savings in the end!

Happy Travels!
