Really good value, even if it seems like a lot of money at first. Park for free at the zoo, if you’re early enough, and jump on the bus to get around. Book the Guiness tour, for everything else just turn up! Recommended!

Choosing Go City Dublin was a bad idea. I purchased the pass the day before I went having worked out that the Storehouse, Hop on Hop Off, and the Zoo was almost worth it on it's own, adding in another 2-3 and it made sense. I've had no issue with City Passes in the past but this one was different, everything was great, managed to get into the majority of places no problem but then it came to storehouse, I tried to book it and there were no slots, zero, for the whole time I was in Dublin. However, when I went to the storehouse, thinking well they must have space for walkins as i've never been turned away there, I was right, they could accept walkins, but not for go city holders, actually what actually happens is they buy a limited number of tickets and then when you book, you're booking through their allocation, so I could pay (albeit a reduced rate) to enter as a walk in or nothing. So one of the main benefits, the main attractions, actually you have to book ahead, no indication of how far ahead and no indication when you book that there's no slots. To me this is a failed system, what if they only buy 50 tickets, you stand no chance but they still get to list this as an attraction, storehouse gets more on the day customers and everyones happy? Except the customer. Oh and when I spoke to their customer service, he just kept repeating the limited availability and then told me there was a fire test in the building so her cut me off. 1 bad experience ruins the legitamacy of the pass as a whole

Excellent savings using a 2-day pass in Dublin We had the 2-day GoCity all-inclusive pass for Dublin in early April 2025. For the two of us, the total cost for two passes was 207.1 Euros. We made an effort to get to as many things as we could in the two days, focusing on the most expensive items that we were interested in doing. Overall, I estimate that the combined savings for the two of us was at least 148 euros (which assumes that without the pass we would have been doing online reservations at many of the attractions... which saves a little... and taking advantage of a senior discount). By using the pass, we realized substantial savings without having to work really hard to coordinate timing and make online purchases for each attraction. Great deal, and I am very happy with the pass!
