London City Cards: Discover London with ease

London is a city where old-world charm meets modern buzz, and with a London City Card, you get to enjoy both without any fuss. Whether you're excited to see the Tower of London, walk through Westminster Abbey, or even visit the animals at London Zoo, the card gives you access to a bunch of top attractions. You’ll also get entry to museums, river cruises, hop-on hop-off buses, and guided tours. The best part? You can choose a pass that fits how you want to explore – either by number of days or number of attractions. So whether you want to pack it all in or take your time, there’s a City Card that’s just right for your trip.

London City Cards in a nutshell

Variety of cards

With three types of London City Cards and flexible options—whether it’s 2 to 7 attractions, 1 to 5 days, or even a full 10-day pass – you can pick what fits your trip and your budget.

Type of city cards

There are two main styles: day-based passes are great if you're on a tight schedule and want to see as much as possible. Attraction-based cards are perfect when you already know what you want to see and prefer a more tailored, focused itinerary.

Which city card is best for you?

If you’d rather take your time and choose just a few big-ticket sights, the London Explorer Pass by Go City is a flexible option that lets you enjoy each spot without rushing. But if you're looking to pack your days with as many sights as possible and skip those long queues, the The London Pass® by Go City or Turbopass London City Pass will help you make the most of a shorter stay.

How to use your city card

Just pick your attractions, plan your day, and scan your mobile pass when you arrive. No printing, no waiting – just easy, breezy sightseeing!

Why buy the London City Card

Huge savings

The London City Card often provides discounts and deals on major attractions, which can save you money compared to buying individual tickets.

So many sights, one card

From the Tower of London and the London Eye to Westminster Abbey and river cruises, your City Card covers a wide range of must-see attractions like museums, guided tours, cruises, and more. It’s your all-in-one key to the city’s top experiences.

Tailored to your trip

Whether you're in town for a quick getaway or a longer holiday, there's a pass that fits. Choose how many days or attractions you want – it's sightseeing, your way.

More time, more flexibility

Some passes give you up to a year to activate after your purchase. So you have plenty of time to decide when you want to plan your visits within that time frame.

Which London City Card is best for you

If you want to see many attractions within a set number of days

If you're going for a shorter duration and want to make the most of London, it is highly recommended to go for the Turbopass London City Pass or the Turbopass London City Pass with London Eye Tickets. You can choose the validity based on days. For example, if you plan to visit for 6 days and want to spend 5 days exploring everything London has to offer, get the 5-day pass, which will give you access to over 18 attractions like the Tower of London, Kensington Palace, and Madame Tussauds, cruises, guided tours, and more.

Both passes cover top attractions but differ slightly: the Turbopass London City Pass does not include entry to the London Eye, while the latter does.

This is highly recommended if you're someone who loves taking it slow and wants to cover several top attractions during your long visit.

Alternatively, if you want to go for attractions to explore as per your flexibility on a shorter stay, you can consider the Turbopass London City Pass or the Turbopass London City Pass with London Eye Tickets since they come with a list of 90+ attractions to choose from and shorter validity of up to 5 days.
