Go City Pass

The GoCity pass can give you great savings and flexibility because it can tailored to fit your specific needs. It is particularly helpful if you are staying for multiple days. The basic plan called the "Explorer" gives you the option to choose the number of free admissions you are looking for. With this pass you can choose from 2 to 5 free admission from a selectoon of 29 attractions of all types, including tours.

The "All Inclusive Pass", on the other hand, gives you unlimited free admissions to any attraction from a list of 46 major attractions, including tours. This pass lets you select the number of days you want to use the pass. 

The list of 49 attractions is extensive and includes many major attractions like the MFA, the Isabella Stewart Museum, Fenway Park, Hop-on/Hop-Off tours, harbor cruises, and much more. 

You don't have to decide your selection of attractions when you buy the pass.  Instead, you can make the selection at the time you visit the attraction.
