Pricing Analysis & Important Details
01. Universal Studios Hollywood isn't on Go City LA's standard tier
Confirmed directly on gocity.com: Universal Studios Hollywood is included ONLY on the pricier 'All-Inclusive Pass Plus' tier (from $244, 2-day minimum), not on the standard All-Inclusive Pass (from $94) modeled in this table. If Universal is a must-see, either upgrade to the Plus tier, buy Los Angeles CityPASS instead (which bundles it in from $157), or buy a standalone ticket.
02. "Hollywood Plus Pass" is not a live, verifiable product right now
The domain previously cited for this pass (hollywoodpluspass.com) is a dead, parked domain. The product name is real and is sold via iVenture Card's Smartvisit app through resellers like Musement — but that listing currently shows sold out, with stale validity copy from 2024. We couldn't confirm a live, accurately-priced offering, so it's been left out of this comparison rather than published with a guessed price.
03. Griffith Observatory and the Getty are free — no pass required
General admission to Griffith Observatory, The Getty Center, and The Getty Villa is free for every visitor. None of the passes in this comparison unlock anything at these sites beyond what's already free — the Observatory's planetarium show (sold same-day, box-office only) and Getty Center/Villa parking ($25/car) are the only paid costs, and no pass in this comparison covers either.
04. The Hollywood Sign has no ticketed access point
No tour, pass, or ticket — including the ones in this comparison — grants entry to the Hollywood Sign itself. Every product, including the Go City-included walking tour, only reaches a nearby viewpoint.
Which Option Fits Your Visit?
Universal Studios Is Your Priority
Los Angeles CityPASS (from $157) bundles it in at a lower starting price than upgrading to Go City's pricier Plus tier — unless you're also visiting many other attractions over several days.
Warner Bros. + a Mix of Sights (No Universal)
Go City LA's All-Inclusive Pass (from $94) covers Warner Bros. Studio Tour plus unlimited use of its other included attractions over your chosen number of days.
Griffith Observatory & The Getty
Skip the passes entirely — both are free general admission. Budget only for the Observatory's optional planetarium ticket (box-office only, same-day) and Getty parking.
Visiting Only 1-2 Attractions
Individual tickets win here — at $79-99.95 each for the two paid headline attractions, no pass in this comparison beats buying just one or two tickets directly.
