4.0The Alcatraz part was great. When we went to pier 39 for the second part, the lady said my tickets were not good. Be careful and don’t plan your day around that portion.
A good pair of tours!

5.0Really great tour of Alcatraz. Although the tour is a self-guided audio tour, it is very well done indeed and really gives an idea of what it was like there. No time constaints - you can take as long as you like, which is great! The Bay cruise under the Golden Gate Bridge was also good, although bring some warm clothes, it can get a little cool out there, especially if it's cloudy or foggy.
We really enjoyed the...

5.0We really enjoyed the tour. We learned so much and would go back to take our kids. Our other plans cut the trip short so didn’t get to see everything but the tour itself was as great.
