What Is Included in the Miami Pass? Full Go City Inclusions for 2026

The biggest source of confusion we see with the Miami pass is that visitors assume "included" means unlimited access to every attraction in South Florida. It does not. The Go City Miami pass is a legitimate money-saver — but only for specific experiences, at specific price points, and only when you actually use enough of them. Buy the wrong tier or show up expecting an attraction that is not on the list, and the math turns quickly against you.

We priced every included attraction individually in June 2026 and cross-referenced the current Go City attraction roster. Miami currently has no CityPASS product and no separate Sightseeing Pass — that operator filed for bankruptcy in mid-2025 and has ceased operations. The only active pass products for Miami in 2026 are the Go City All-Inclusive Pass (time-based, unlimited entries) and the Go City Explorer Pass (choose 2, 3, 4, or 5 attractions from the same roster). This guide covers both, in full, with the numbers that actually matter.

If you have already decided you are buying a pass and just want to compare the two types head-to-head, our Miami city pass comparison has the full breakdown. If you are trying to figure out whether the pass is worth buying at all for your specific trip, the worth-it math section below will give you a direct answer.

Key Takeaways

Sponsored
  • Go City Miami covers 40+ attractions across South Florida — including Everglades airboat rides, Zoo Miami, Duck Tours, immersive art experiences, and Key West day trips.
  • The All-Inclusive Pass (1–5 days, from $119 adult) rewards visitors doing 3+ attractions per day. Below that threshold it loses money against individual tickets.
  • The Explorer Pass (2–5 choices, from $79 adult) is the sharper pick for selective visitors: choose only what you actually want, valid for 30 days.
  • Neither pass covers Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, the Wynwood Walls entry fee, PortMiami cruise terminals, or most nightlife/dining experiences.
  • The Sightseeing Pass is defunct as of mid-2025. Do not book it — it is no longer available.
  • Book Everglades airboat slots and Zoo Miami time windows in advance, especially during peak season (December through March).

Full Miami Pass Inclusions: What Is Covered

Sponsored

Go City's Miami pass covers attractions across a wide South Florida footprint — not just the City of Miami proper. You will find options in Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, the Florida Keys, and (via day-trip options) as far as Kennedy Space Center and Key West. The list below reflects the verified 2026 roster; Go City updates it periodically so always confirm on the app before your trip.

Sightseeing Tours and City Experiences

This is the core of the Miami pass and where the most meaningful à-la-carte savings come from:

  • Duck Tours South Beach — amphibious bus tour through the Art Deco Historic District and into Biscayne Bay. Individual ticket up to $52 à la carte; typically $40–$52 depending on time slot and season.
  • Island Queen Millionaire's Row Sightseeing Cruise — 90-minute narrated cruise past waterfront mansions on Biscayne Bay. Individual ticket approximately $35–$40 à la carte.
  • Big Bus Miami: Hop-On Hop-Off Tour (24-hour pass) — covers Miami Beach, Wynwood, Bayside, Brickell, and Little Havana. Individual ticket from $45 à la carte.
  • Big Bus Miami: Night Tour — two-hour illuminated city loop. Included alongside the daytime tour on the pass.
  • Miami Beach Highlights Bike Tour by Unlimited Biking — guided two-hour cycling tour through South Beach and Flamingo Park. Individual ticket approximately $49–$55 à la carte.
  • Key Largo Princess Glass Bottom Boat Cruise — a day trip down to Key Largo for a 2-hour reef viewing cruise. Individual ticket approximately $35–$40 à la carte.

Everglades and Nature Experiences

Multiple Everglades operators are on the roster — this is deliberate, since the Everglades are Miami's single most popular day-trip attraction and the options serve different areas of the park:

  • Everglades Alligator Farm and Airboat Ride — classic South Miami Everglades experience, 30-minute airboat ride plus wildlife show and farm access. Individual ticket approximately $30–$35 à la carte.
  • Sawgrass Recreation Park Everglades Airboat Adventures — Sawgrass Expressway location, one of the fastest access points from Miami. Individual adult ticket approximately $31–$36 à la carte.
  • Zoo Miami — one of the largest zoos in the US by area, covering 750+ acres with 500+ species. Individual adult ticket $25.95 plus tax à la carte.

Art and Culture

  • Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) — contemporary and modern art museum on Biscayne Bay waterfront. Individual admission up to $18 à la carte.
  • Superblue Miami Immersive Art Experience — large-scale digital and immersive art installations (currently featuring teamLab). Individual admission $32–$39 depending on weekday vs. weekend; starts from $29 à la carte online.
  • Paradox Museum Miami — optical illusion and mind-bending interactive exhibits. Individual adult ticket approximately $28–$35 à la carte.

Extended Reach: Day Trips and Fort Lauderdale

Go City Miami's roster stretches well beyond Miami proper — this is unusual compared to most city passes and adds significant value for visitors who are willing to make a day trip:

  • Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex — roughly a 3.5-hour drive from Miami. Individual adult admission approximately $77–$83 à la carte (standard gate price). This single attraction can pay for a 1-day All-Inclusive pass on its own if you are planning to visit.
  • Big Bus Fort Lauderdale Hop-On Hop-Off — same Big Bus network, covers Fort Lauderdale Beach and Las Olas. Individual ticket from $45 à la carte.
  • Lion Country Safari (West Palm Beach, ~1.5 hrs north) — drive-through safari with 900+ animals. Individual adult approximately $45 à la carte.

Water Sports and Active Experiences

  • Paddleboard and kayak rentals (multiple Miami Beach operators)
  • E-bike rentals via Unlimited Biking and other operators
  • Snorkeling and glass-bottom boat experiences

The full current list is maintained in the Go City app. Attractions are added and removed across the year; we verified this roster in June 2026 but recommend confirming specific attractions in the app before you buy.

What the Miami Pass Does NOT Include

Sponsored

Several Miami attractions that visitors specifically ask about are not on the Go City roster. Expecting them to be covered and finding out at the door is the most common pass frustration — so here is the definitive list of exclusions:

  • Vizcaya Museum and Gardens — one of Miami's most photographed landmarks; individual tickets $22–$25. Not on Go City. Buy direct from vizcaya.org.
  • Wynwood Walls — the outdoor street art complex is free to walk past, but the indoor museum area charges admission ($12–$15). Not on Go City.
  • Frost Science Museum (Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science) — popular with families; individual admission $29.95 adults. Not on Go City's current roster.
  • Miami Children's Museum — occasionally appears on third-party Go City listings but was not confirmed on the active 2026 roster when we checked; verify in the app.
  • Bayside Marketplace — free to enter; shops and restaurants are pay-as-you-go. The Island Queen Cruise departs from Bayside but the marketplace itself requires no pass.
  • Art Basel and temporary exhibitions — timed, ticketed events with separate admission. Not covered.
  • Miami Seaquarium — was historically on the Go City roster but closed in 2023. Not available.
  • PortMiami cruise departures — cruise terminal fees and port charges are separate from any attraction pass.
  • Florida state parks (John Pennekamp, Bill Baggs) — parking and entry fees are paid separately.
  • Nightlife, restaurants, and bars — no pass covers South Beach entry fees or dining.
  • Airbnb Experiences and private tours — only Go City-contracted operators are included.

The practical takeaway: if an attraction is free to enter (Wynwood street walls, South Beach, Lincoln Road, Little Havana walking) or is a private operator not contracted with Go City, it will not be on the pass. Plan your itinerary around the paid, contracted attractions listed above, and build the free Miami experiences in around them.

Go City All-Inclusive Pass: Worked Worth-It Math

The All-Inclusive pass rewards density. The more you use it per day, the more money it saves. The moment you drop below roughly two to three meaningful à-la-carte attractions per day, it starts losing against individual tickets. Here is the honest arithmetic.

1-day All-Inclusive at $119 — does it pay off?

You need $119 in individual tickets on a single day to break even. Here are two realistic scenarios:

Scenario A — Heavy day (passes comfortably): Duck Tours South Beach ($45) + Island Queen Cruise ($38) + Superblue Miami ($35) = $118 à la carte vs $119 pass — essentially break-even, plus you get digital access without hunting for individual tickets. Add Big Bus Miami ($45) instead of the cruise and the à-la-carte total hits $125, a $6 saving with skip-the-queue access.

Scenario B — Lighter day (pass loses): Zoo Miami ($26) + PAMM ($18) + Everglades airboat ($33) = $77 à la carte vs $119 pass — you overpay by $42. The 1-day pass is the hardest tier to justify unless you have a genuinely packed, urban-focused itinerary with multiple mid-to-high-price attractions.

The 1-day exception that always works: Kennedy Space Center. At $77–$83 alone, a single visit to KSC plus one additional Miami attraction on the same day — Zoo Miami ($26) for example — gives you $103–$109 in à-la-carte value against the $119 pass, a near break-even with the rest of the day's experiences effectively at no extra cost.

2-day All-Inclusive at $164 — the sweet spot for most visitors

Two days is where the math starts to work reliably for typical Miami visitors:

Day 1: Duck Tours South Beach ($45) + Island Queen Cruise ($38) + Superblue Miami ($35) = $118.
Day 2: Zoo Miami ($26) + Everglades Alligator Farm ($32) + Big Bus Miami ($45) = $103.
Two-day à-la-carte total: $221 vs $164 pass — saving of $57. That is a genuine, useful saving and a realistic itinerary that does not feel forced or rushed.

3-day All-Inclusive at $209 — best for first-timers doing South Florida properly

Day 1: Big Bus Miami 24-hr ($45) + Duck Tours ($45) + Island Queen Cruise ($38) = $128.
Day 2: Zoo Miami ($26) + Everglades Alligator Farm ($32) + Sawgrass Airboat ($33) = $91.
Day 3: Superblue Miami ($35) + PAMM ($18) + Lion Country Safari ($45) = $98.
Three-day à-la-carte total: $317 vs $209 pass — saving of $108. The 3-day pass is where Go City Miami delivers its best value, and this itinerary is unhurried.

When the All-Inclusive loses money — be honest with yourself

If your Miami itinerary looks like this: one beach day (free), one Wynwood afternoon (mostly free), and one day with two paid attractions — the pass is the wrong tool. Two paid attractions at average Miami prices ($35 each) cost $70 à la carte. Even the 1-day All-Inclusive at $119 more than doubles that. Buy individual tickets. No pass of any kind is the right answer for a trip where most time is spent at free or off-pass experiences.

Go City Explorer Pass: Worked Worth-It Math

Sponsored

The Explorer Pass is the right answer for selective travelers who have a specific shortlist of 2 to 5 attractions and do not want to commit to a daily-density requirement. At $79 for 2-choice and $134 for 5-choice, with 30 days to use your entries, this is a very different product from the All-Inclusive.

3-choice Explorer at $99 — the most popular tier

Best-value combination: Duck Tours South Beach ($45) + Island Queen Cruise ($38) + Zoo Miami ($26) = $109 à la carte vs $99 pass — saving of $10 plus skip-queue access. A modest saving, but you prepay and have 30 days to use the three entries.

High-value combination: Kennedy Space Center ($80) + Duck Tours ($45) + Superblue Miami ($35) = $160 à la carte vs $99 pass — saving of $61. If you are making the day-trip to KSC, the 3-choice Explorer is the single best-value product in the entire Miami pass market. The math is not close.

Museum-heavy combination that loses: PAMM ($18) + Paradox Museum ($30) + Zoo Miami ($26) = $74 à la carte vs $99 pass — you overpay by $25. The Explorer only makes sense when at least one of your chosen attractions is a higher-price experience ($35+). Pair museums with tours or the KSC visit to fix the math.

5-choice Explorer at $134

Duck Tours ($45) + Island Queen Cruise ($38) + Zoo Miami ($26) + Everglades Alligator Farm ($32) + Superblue Miami ($35) = $176 à la carte vs $134 pass — saving of $42. A clean, achievable itinerary over 3–4 days at a Miami pace. The 30-day validity means no daily pressure whatsoever.

Explorer vs All-Inclusive: which one?

Use the Explorer if: you are staying 3+ days and plan to mix paid and free days, you have a specific shortlist of 3–5 attractions, or you want Kennedy Space Center in your itinerary. Use the All-Inclusive if: you are in Miami for 2 days and want to see as much as possible, you prefer to decide on the day what to visit next, or you have a group where the per-person savings compound.

Tips for Using the Miami Pass Effectively

Sponsored

Book Everglades slots before your trip

Both the Everglades Alligator Farm and Sawgrass Recreation Park can sell out their airboat tour slots during the busy season (roughly December through April). The Go City pass includes the entry, but not a guaranteed time slot — the pass is redeemed in the Go City app, and available time slots are shown per-operator. Book through the app as soon as you purchase the pass, not on the morning of your visit. Arriving without a slot in peak season means a wait of one to three hours, or no ride at all if it sells out.

Cluster attractions by geography

Miami's spread-out layout punishes poorly planned days. Group your pass redemptions by area to avoid burning half a day in traffic. A practical scheme:

  • South Beach + Biscayne Bay day: Duck Tours + Island Queen Cruise + Big Bus. All depart from or near Bayside or South Beach.
  • South Miami + Everglades day: Zoo Miami (South Miami) + Everglades Alligator Farm (South Miami, same corridor). Pair them easily.
  • Day-trip day: Kennedy Space Center (north, 3.5 hrs) or Key Largo Princess Cruise (south, 1 hr). Do not combine these with Miami attractions on the same day — the drive times eat your time budget.
  • Arts and immersive day: Superblue Miami (Wynwood area) + PAMM (Biscayne Boulevard). Both in the urban core, walkable or a short rideshare apart.

Activate on your first heavy-sightseeing day

For the All-Inclusive, the daily counter starts on first use. If you arrive in Miami at 8 PM and do nothing that day, do not activate the pass at the airport. Activate on the morning of your first full attraction day. Every day of your pass should have at least two paid-attraction uses to justify the per-day cost.

Check the app for current hours before you go

Go City maintains up-to-date hours and any temporary closures for each attraction in the app. Miami attractions — particularly outdoor and water-based ones — operate on weather-dependent schedules. Everglades tours sometimes cancel for rain; cruises depart on fixed timetables. Build a backup option for each day so a closure does not waste your pass day.

Who Should Skip the Miami Pass Entirely

Sponsored

Honesty is the most useful thing we can offer here. The Miami pass is not for everyone.

Skip if you are only doing 1–2 paid attractions. Zoo Miami ($26) + PAMM ($18) = $44 à la carte. No pass gets below that for two attractions. Individual tickets are cheaper.

Skip if your trip is primarily beach-focused. Miami Beach is free. Flamingo Park is free. The Art Deco architecture walk is free. The Wynwood Walls exterior is free. A trip where 80% of the time is beaches, restaurants, and nightlife has no pass that pays off — individual tickets for the one or two paid experiences you want will always be cheaper.

Skip if you have not verified your specific must-do attractions are on the current roster. The Go City Miami list changes. If a specific attraction is the reason you are considering a pass — and you have not confirmed it is currently included in the app — buy individual tickets. Do not buy a pass on the assumption something is included; confirm it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the Go City Miami All-Inclusive Pass?

The Go City Miami All-Inclusive Pass includes 40+ attractions across South Florida in 2026, covering sightseeing tours (Duck Tours South Beach, Island Queen Millionaire's Row Cruise, Big Bus Miami), Everglades experiences (Everglades Alligator Farm Airboat, Sawgrass Recreation Park), Zoo Miami, immersive art (Superblue Miami, Paradox Museum), Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), Kennedy Space Center, Lion Country Safari, and water sports including bike tours, paddleboard rentals, and a Key Largo glass-bottom boat cruise. It does not include Vizcaya Museum, the Frost Science Museum, the Wynwood Walls fee, or the defunct Miami Seaquarium.

What attractions are included in the Go City Miami Explorer Pass?

The Go City Miami Explorer Pass draws from the same pool of 39–40+ attractions as the All-Inclusive Pass. You choose 2, 3, 4, or 5 of those attractions to use within 30 days. The best-value choices from a savings standpoint are the higher-priced experiences: Kennedy Space Center ($77–$83 à la carte), Duck Tours South Beach (up to $52), Big Bus Miami ($45+), Island Queen Cruise ($35–$40), and Lion Country Safari ($45). Choosing museums alone (PAMM at $18, Zoo Miami at $26) produces a weaker return — the math only works when at least one choice is a $40+ experience.

Is Kennedy Space Center included in the Miami Pass?

Yes. Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is included on the Go City Miami All-Inclusive and Explorer passes in 2026. It is one of the highest-value inclusions on the entire roster — individual admission is $77–$83 for adults. Kennedy Space Center is about 3.5 hours north of Miami by car; most visitors combine it with an overnight or a very early start. If KSC is on your itinerary, a 3-choice Explorer at $99 that includes KSC, Duck Tours, and one more Miami attraction almost always beats individual tickets by $50–$60.

Is Zoo Miami included in the Miami Pass?

Yes, Zoo Miami is included on both the Go City All-Inclusive and Explorer passes in 2026. Individual adult admission is $25.95 plus tax. At that price, Zoo Miami is a moderate-value inclusion — it contributes meaningfully to a multi-attraction day but should not be the primary reason to buy a pass on its own. Best paired with the Everglades Alligator Farm, which is in a similar geographic corridor in South Miami, so both can be done in a single day without significant backtracking.

Is the Everglades airboat included in the Miami Pass?

Yes. Multiple Everglades airboat operators are included on the Go City Miami pass, including the Everglades Alligator Farm and Airboat Ride and Sawgrass Recreation Park Everglades Airboat Adventures. Individual tickets run $30–$36 depending on the operator. Book your airboat time slot through the Go City app as soon as you purchase the pass — slots sell out during peak season (December through March) and popular morning departures can fill by mid-afternoon the day before.

What is the difference between the Go City All-Inclusive and Explorer Pass for Miami?

The All-Inclusive Pass works by the day — you pay for 1, 2, 3, or 5 consecutive days and can visit as many included attractions as you want in that time. Prices start at $119 per adult for one day. The Explorer Pass works by the attraction count — you choose 2, 3, 4, or 5 specific attractions from the 40+ roster and have 30 days from first use to redeem them. Prices start at $79 per adult for 2 choices. The All-Inclusive rewards dense, back-to-back sightseeing; the Explorer rewards a relaxed itinerary where you mix paid sightseeing with free Miami experiences over several days.

The Miami pass inclusion list is genuinely broad — 40+ attractions spanning Everglades airboats, South Beach sightseeing tours, immersive art, Zoo Miami, and a day-trip reach that stretches all the way to Kennedy Space Center. For the right traveler — someone doing three-plus paid experiences over two days — the Go City All-Inclusive at $164 (2-day) saves $57 over individual tickets with minimal planning. For the selective visitor, the Explorer Pass at $99 for three choices is the sharper tool, and the KSC day-trip scenario alone saves $61.

The math turns against both passes quickly, though: a beach-and-free-attractions Miami trip has no pass that pays off, and buying any pass without first confirming your specific choices are on the current roster is a reliable way to overpay. Check the Go City app, confirm the roster, plan your itinerary around geography — and you will get honest value out of whatever tier you choose.
