My advice … don’t pay any extra for ad ons!! I paid $278 for 2 pax when I should have just paid the basic $40/pp for the ferry ride… yes mine does include a bay cruise which I’m yet to do but the Alcatraz portion was supposed to have a few extras BUT once you get there everyone gets the same…. Also everyone waits for half an hour in a big line for the boat to leave Peir33. Everyone gets an audio included. There’s not much more than that. There no VIP type ticket. It’s worth going there and having a look. Interesting place. Instagram: @joblogstravel 👩🏻‍🌾

Iconic, fantastically run, take as long as you want tour of this hugely historic Island. Learnt so much and thoroughly recommend the guided walk up to the cell block. Finished off with a bay cruise under the equally iconic Golden Gate Bridge. Fantastic !!

Loved the Alcatraz experience. That was an awesome tour which I would recommend to friends and family. However not the Bay Cruise. When we got done with the Alcatraz tour we had to wait hours for that tour. Never was told that it was narrated. Windows were filthy for the people who sat on the lower deck. Deck member sat and ate the whole time we cruised, very unprofessional especially when they don’t go continuously during the day
