This will save you a lot! Absolutely worth it! Just make sure you get your iVenture card at the collection point after presenting them this voucher and you are ready to go. You can show this card at the attractions and it is good as paying for a ticket.

All of the tours were great after we finally understood what needed to be done. We had to locate a place that would issue the card. I was e-mailed a list of places to pick up the card. The first place we went had the cards but had no instructions on how to use them. We drove 30 minutes to the next closest place. They had the cards with only a small flyer that described how to use it. No problem, we figured out the things we wanted to do.
When i bought the tickets, there was a long list of things we could do for free. I was really surprised when two of the "free" tours told me i needed to pay a surcharge; $20 each in one case and $10 each in the other. The great deal I thought I had bought was only a good deal..
A little truth in advertising would be a good thing.
