HOW TO USE THE GO SAN DIEGO APP
Your Go San Diego App grants you admission to as many included attractions as you want to visit for the number of days you purchase. Once you purchase the pass, you can use it directly from your phone with the free Go City Card App. You don’t need to buy other tickets, the city app acts as your ticket to attractions.
After it’s used the first time, the app is good for the number of days you choose but must be consecutive days. For instance, if you use the card first on a Monday morning, that counts as your first day. Even if you visit your first attraction late in the day, it still counts. We recommend starting as early as possible!
If you skip a day because you’re tired, you won’t get a refund or an extension. You can visit each attraction once unless you get the multi-day pass.
What to Know Before You Download the Go San Diego App
- Be realistic about how much you can do. The big attractions will each take a full day and some are far apart from the others. For other attractions that are quick, there still may be significant travel time to get from one to another. However, you can visit a few attractions per day by choosing ones that are closer together.
- You get to skip the line. If you download the Go City App, you can skip the line at select attractions and go directly to the entrance turnstiles where they will scan a QR code on your phone.
- The app is free and keeps everything in one place. Once you download the app, you can guidebooks to each attraction and get directions on your phone. It’s a great and easy way to make sure you don’t miss a thing!
- Only longer-duration passes include Sea World. If you purchase a three, five or seven-Day card, you can visit SeaWorld on as many days as your card is valid. SeaWorld is not included on one and two day passes. Skip the ticket line with digital delivery.
- Child passes are for children ages three-12. Most attractions do not charge for children under three years old. However, there are some exceptions, especially children’s museums and attractions geared toward young travelers. If you have a child under three years old, you should check with the attraction in advance.
- You have one year to use your Go San Diego Pass once you purchase it. After one year, it will expire.
- Refund policy: the Risk Free Guarantee gives you 90 days from your purchase date to return any non-activated passes for a full refund.
