About the Pass...

What is an Explorer Pass?
A Boston Explorer Pass is a multi-attraction pass providing you with your choice of three top Boston attractions. You combine one Premier and two Signature attractions to create your own experience, tailoring your activities based on what you like to do.

What’s the catch? How can you offer all this at such an affordable price?
There is no catch! Because we bring a very large number of visitors to each of our attraction partners, we are able to get great pricing on each admission, allowing us to pass the savings on to you when using an Explorer Pass.

How does the Boston Explorer Pass work?
All you have to do is present your Boston Explorer Pass at a participating attraction and your entry is included (you pay nothing). The Boston Explorer Pass is valid for admission to one Signature attraction and two Premier attractions for a total of three. You can visit each of your selected attractions once.

The pass is activated the first time you use it and you have 30 days to visit your remaining attraction choices. Every person (ages 3 and up) in your group must have a Boston Explorer Pass to take advantage of the free admissions. Attraction admissions follow the open operating hours of the attraction.

Does my pass expire?
Your first attraction visit must occur within one (1) year following the calendar year in which your card is purchased. For example: cards purchased in 2008 will expire on December 31, 2009. Once you activate your Explorer Pass by visiting your first attraction or picking up your trolley pass, you have thirty (30) days to visit your remaining attractions.
