The Bay Cruise was great. I learned a lot about San Francisco that I did not know. I have wanted to tour Alcatraz for a long time and the audio guided tour was exceptional.

Have waited a very long time to go on this tour, and it was worth the wait. A lot of history to absorb and it was a memorable experience. Highly recommend.
