These were so easy to use and well worth the money... we did everything except for the Art Museum and was so happy we'd got them. Would highly recommend.
An absolute must for the New York City traveler. I purchased this pass a few times but never visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I'm not sure it deserves its own required spot on the list, especially for first timers I would pair it with an either/or combo. Great value and easy to use. The one thing that was immensely frustrating is that you can't redeem the booklet without a printed copy of your pass purchase. Everything is digital these days, I should be able to redeem the pass using the generated barcode on my iPhone.
The New York City Pass was well worth the money, but you need at least 5 days to really enjoy it. We jammed all into 3 days and never stopped.
