If you purchase a 3, 5 or 7 day pass, you get admission to one premium bonus attraction on one of the days your card is valid. Please see your guidebook for more details.
The first time you visit an attraction, it will “activate” the calendar day countdown on your pass.
For example, a 3-day pass activated on a Monday will be valid on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. It doesn’t matter what time you activate the pass on the first day, so we suggest you start your day early.
With our Free Cancellation Insurance, you can return any unactivated passes for a full refund, within a year of the purchase date.
Most travelers visit between 2 and 3 attractions each day depending on individual preference. Our most popular pass is the 3-day pass.
Compare the price of the pass to the gate prices of the attractions you want to visit to see how much you can save. Many customers save more than 50%.

In most cases, you can visit each attraction once per day. Some attractions are valid only once during the life of the pass. Please reference your guidebook page for specific information on each attraction.

from MONROE, NC on 8/22/2010Comments about Smart Destinations Go Blue Ridge Card:
THIS CARD IS WORTH THE MONEY!!! THE DISTANCE BETWEEN SOME ATTRACTIONS CAN BE 100 MILES AWAY. PLANNING YOUR DAY AHEAD OF TIME IS CRUCIAL, ESPECIALLY TO MAKE THE MOST OF THE CARD. I THOUGHT I PLANNED MY DAYS, BUT WAS UNABLE TO DO HALF THE THINGS I WANTED. I FEEL THE CARD PAID FOR ITSELF AFTER 2 EVENTS!!!! WAS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED THAT SOME ATTRACTIONS ADVERTISED WERE CLOSED, MAKE SURE TO CALL AHEAD, TO NOT MAKE THE SAME TIMELY MISTAKE THAT I MADE!!!! IF YOU ARE BARGAIN SAVVY, THIS IS SUCH A GREAT DEAL!!!

Comments about Smart Destinations Go Blue Ridge Card:
We purchased the 5 day pass. We would have saved more had we known about this before arriving in Asheville because we had to pay full price rather than the internet price plus we already had reserved a white water raft trip. Considering the Biltmore Estate cost takes up over a third of the price of the card, it is a great value. We packed a lot in each day. The only thing we did not get to do was go to one of the mining attractions but that is because of poor planning on our part and very foggy conditions on the Blue Ridge Parkway. There is a lot of traveling involved to make this a value. Bottom line is that we would not have done nearly as much on vacation if we did not have the card.

Comments about Smart Destinations Go Blue Ridge Card:
We were disappointed when we realized how much serious drive time that we were up for just to get our moneys worth from this card. If you are staying anywhere more than an hour outside of Asheville-good luck. You will be racing just to make it all worth it....the Biltmore trip is the best deal on the card.
from Deerfield Beach, FL on 7/23/2010Comments about Smart Destinations Go Blue Ridge Card:
We had so much fun that I wish we could buy a 7-day card at our 5-day card or lower rate. Our Whitewater rafting days on the listed NC rivers were good but would be greater if more rivers within the Great Smoky Mountain were also included in the activity book. Finally unlike other rivers, we found the 48-50 degree Nantahala water was somewhat FREEZING cold for our South Floridian blood!

from Washington, DC on 7/23/2010Comments about Smart Destinations Go Blue Ridge Card:
I love the mountains, so picked a week long vacation to one of the most scenic areas and chose the Go Blue Ridge card to do it all. We were able to do tons of the attractions and had a ball. You'll have to either stay at a hotel in one location and do all the attractions there or do a day trip to area A and do attractions, then a day trip to area B to do them. At most, you can only squeeze in 3 per day to enjoy them, and the Biltmore and the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad trip/tours take up a lot of the day, but are worthwhile. If you get any of the Go cards, make sure to do the most expensive attractions with them, otherwise, you're not saving much. Must do's: Biltmore Estate, Chimney Rock Park, Dillsboro River Company Rafting & Tubing, Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, Lake Lure Tours, LaZoom Comedy Tours of Asheville, Mountainside Theatre, NOC French Broad River Rafting, Oconaluftee Indian Village, Smoky Mountain Jet Boats, Wildwater Rafting There's so much you can do with the card. Make sure to get a 5 day card, and if you can't do it all on 5 individual days, get a 5 day and some other day combination. If we were spending more than two weeks there, we would have purchased two sets of 5 day cards, so that we could save on even more attractions. The Asheville area's a pretty fun place with a diverse culture, great architecture, fabulous dining options, and lots of festivals. There's never a bad time to visit. Oh, we stayed at Country Inn and Suites at Biltmore Square--great hotel with tons of ammenities and in a central location to all the attractions.

from Orlando, Fl on 7/15/2010Comments about Smart Destinations Go Blue Ridge Card:
I was skeptical at first but it was useful using the card for three days. We loved all the places we went to at Blue Ridge. But the theater still charged us even though I called notifying them that I was a Blue Ridge card holder. But they are fixing it now.

from Booneville, Ms... on 1/6/2010Comments about Smart Destinations Go Blue Ridge Card:
Make sure you plan your days wisely to get the most out of your card. You need a whole day to see the Baltimore Estate...If possible do the Cherokee Reservation...It is an awesome dance. The Card does not cover any extras at the house and reservation they will cost more....But you cant beat this deal at all......

from Myrtle Beach, SC on 10/26/2009Comments about Smart Destinations Go Blue Ridge Card:
This is a worry free card. When you get to where you are going you just show the card, it's that easy. No digging through your pocket book or waiting in long lines to get in. The only flow was that after 5:30pm all places didn't except the card, so you have a time frame from 8:30-5:30 to shove everything you wanted to do into. That's not enough time, so pick your main attraction that day and do everything on the map on the way. Great DEAL!!!
