This was the perfect way to see Chicago! My husband and I got the 2-day passes, and managed to see nearly everything we wanted to see without having to pay any extra money. You definitely get your money's worth with this card, and it's so nice to be able to skip the ticket line at some of the places. Don't miss the architecture cruise--it's an interesting and beautiful ride; we learned so much about Chicago's architecture!

The Go Chicago card MADE my vacation. It made entry to dozens of sites quick and easy. There were so many possible excursions covered by the card that I couldn't do them all! I was able to go to the Art Institute on successive days and still didn't see everything. The Go Chicago card had events covered from the typical, museums, to the sublime, Sears Tower viewing deck, to the comic, Comedy Sportz. It was a most fortunate purchase on my part.

This card was great. We saved about 50-75 by buying it. I was in Chicago for three full days and went to a ton of places with the card. It was easy, we could have skipped lines if there were any and it was much easier to enjoy the attractions with out having to fork over money every time we went into some place. I would buy one again if I went to another city that has one.

I booked the three-day Go Chicago card because it covered most of the things we wanted to do on our four-day trip to the city, and though we spent almost every waking minute from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. running around to the point of exhaustion, we fit almost everything in. While it took a lot of coordination concerning when certain museums opened and closed and how close they were to other things, we were able to see just about everything we wanted for a third of the price. I definitely recommend the card if it covers what you want to do, you have some time to plan the trip, and you have the energy to run around. If we had been in town longer I would have gotten the five-day card, which would definitely give you the time to see everything without as much running around although. I would also recommend staying in downtown Chicago since that's where most of the destinations are located, and you cannot make reservations all at once: you must book your tours at the Palmer House Hilton each day.

Love Chicago would do it again. The card was worth the money, especially not having to pull your wallet out all the time.

The Go Chicago Card was the way to go! We probably saved over 200. The only thing was you felt rushed to get everything in with the one day pass. Another great thing to get around Chicago cheaper and easier is to buy a two day visitor transit pass for cheap, under 15.00 that allows you to ride unlimited bus, train, and subway. We had a great time in Chicago and will return someday when it isn't so hot!

The Go Chicago Card provides one stop shopping for busy weekend visitors. It included all the venues and tours we were hoping to take in and shopping discounts were an added bonus.

The line for the Shedd Aquarium had over 200 people in it. With the Go Card, we moved to the front and got in immediately without waiting. Just make sure you get on the correct on and off bus "The Big Banana".

Worth the one week pass but not the two or three day.

Go Chicago card is a deal, by all means. But a 1 day card is not that much; you can visit 3 places max out of 21 because everything has a 5.30 pm entry time cutoff. You can't expect to get the card at Macy's at 10 am and visit more than 2-3 places before 5.30 pm. If you arrive before 6 pm at Macy's the previous day to collect the card or have the card mailed to your home, you could start out at the entry queue of the first place at the earliest opening time, and even still you can visit at the max 4 places. But I had only one day in Chicago and wanted to visit only 3-4 places. I was able to make 3, and the cost was surely less than the total of the individual entry prices. Don't use a car by to travel between places; take a CTA Visitor Pass--a great deal.
