Just a quick note: We update this article regularly, but sometimes things change out of the blue — you know how it is. Before purchasing, take another look at the terms and attractions on Go City.

How does the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass work?

The Dubai All-Inclusive Pass is your digital ticket to more than 50 different attractions in Dubai.

With the pass, you get access to the most impressive observation decks and the coolest theme parks. You can also join numerous boat tours and day trips to Abu Dhabi.

You can choose from a validity period of 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, or 10 days. During that time, you can visit as many attractions as you like.

The Dubai All-Inclusive Pass also lets you skip long lines at most attractions — which saves you a serious amount of time.

Important: For some attractions, you need to reserve a time slot in advance. The tables below show which attractions require this. You can find all the details on the Go City website or in the provider’s app.

Impressive Landmarks in the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass

No trip to Dubai would be complete without a visit to the tallest building in the world. With the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass, you can head up to the 124th and 125th floors of the Burj Khalifa.

Don’t miss these other great vantage points either:

• The Dubai Frame
• The observation deck on the Palm Tower

Important: Both of our top picks get very busy, so we’d strongly recommend booking a time slot for the observation decks as early as possible.

Theme Parks in the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass

No other city packs in as many theme parks as Dubai. Whether you’re after live shows, roller coasters, or hands-on activities, there’s genuinely something for every kind of visitor.

Our top picks:

• Motiongate Dubai — where you can step into your favorite movie worlds
• IMG Worlds of Adventure — the world’s largest indoor theme park
• LEGOLAND® Dubai

You can find more details about each theme park on the Go City website.

Boat Tours in the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass

The Dubai All-Inclusive Pass covers a great range of boat tours. A cruise on Dubai Creek — the historic heart of old Dubai — is especially worth doing. But the Speedboat Sightseeing Tour and the 75-minute Atlantis Panorama Speedboat Ride are seriously fun too.

Activities in the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass

The All-Inclusive Pass also unlocks a ton of great things to do in Dubai.

Our personal favorites:

• Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo
• Morning Desert Safari in Dubai
• Stand-Up Paddle lesson and excursion

Day Trips in the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass

Staying in Dubai for more than a couple of days and want to explore one of the other Emirates? A day trip is absolutely worth it — with the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass, you can take in the top highlights of Abu Dhabi. For full details on the day trips available, check the Go City website.

Who is the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass worth it for?

The Dubai All-Inclusive Pass is perfect for full-on sightseeing from morning to night. With the pass, you can visit an unlimited number of attractions over your chosen period.

For most visitors, the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass pays off with a usage period of three days, at which point the pass works out to around $137 per day.

Since individual attractions in Dubai tend to be seriously pricey, you’ll recoup that cost much faster than you would in most other cities.

Sample calculation for the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass

Here’s a 3-day itinerary showing what a typical first visit to Dubai might look like — and whether the pass actually saves you money.

Day 1

• At the Top – Burj Khalifa ($71)
• Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo ($48)
• Black Pearl Sightseeing Cruise ($35)

Day 2

• Hop-on/Hop-off Bus ($86)
• Dubai Frame ($15)
• Palm Jumeirah Kayak Tour ($71)
• The View at The Palm ($44)

Day 3

• Motiongate Theme Park ($90)

Total price without pass: $460
Total price with pass: $455

In our sample calculation, the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass saves you $5. That’s not a huge financial win, but the real benefit is being able to skip the ticket line at every attraction — and that saves you a significant amount of time throughout your trip.

Of course, results like this depend heavily on which attractions you actually want to visit. Your personal savings could be higher or lower.

Is the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass worth it for a layover?

Dubai is a fantastic destination for a layover on your way somewhere else. If you’ve only got a short window, here are the must-sees we’d prioritize:

• The observation deck of the Burj Khalifa (without pass: $71)
• Desert Safari in Dubai (without pass: $82)
• Black Pearl Sightseeing Cruise (without pass: $35)
• Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo (without pass: $48)

If you’re only in the city for a short time, the Dubai All-Inclusive Pass probably isn’t the right call. For a brief stay, we’d recommend the Dubai Explorer Pass from Go City instead. With the Explorer Pass, you only pay for the number of attractions you actually want to visit — you choose between 3, 4, 5, 7, or 10 attractions.

The Dubai Explorer Pass won’t necessarily save you money in this scenario, but it will definitely save you time. You can skip the ticket lines at every attraction you visit.
