The New York Pass gives you unlimited access to over 80 participating attractions for 1, 2, 3, 5, or 7 days. The price of the pass varies by the number of days it covers. The use time period begins when you use the pass for the first time. The pass is good for consecutive days and is based on calendar days, not 24 hour periods. So, if you have a two day pass, it’s not a good idea to use it for the first time on an evening cruise. Plan full days of activities to get the most value out of your pass.

Some of the more popular attractions include the American Museum of Natural History, Central Park Bike Rentals & Tours, Circle Line Cruises, Tall Ship Cruises, Discovery Times Square, Empire State Building Observation Deck, Guggenheim Museum, Luna Park at Coney Island, Museum of Modern Art, NBC Studio Tour, New York Botanical Garden, New York Water Taxi, Radio City Music Hall Stage Door Tour, Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, Top of the Rock, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and a variety of walking tours.
