1.00Didn’t go because I accidentally chose the wrong date when I paid and Viator assured me it was updated, but it was not. I paid $130 into the ether. I wouldn’t recommend this tour company or Viator.
Good Time.

5.00Very nice. We went on a Saturday and it was pretty crowded. Would probably be easier to get around and take pictures if we had gone during the week.
Visit to Alkatraz Island, San Fransisco, California.

5.00We enjoyed the tour, and learned more about Alkatraz history. We learnt that Alkatraz island is not only about prison but also native indian history. We saw Golden Bridge from far, though we had hoped for closer look.
Great tour yet
