I actually booked this package for the Alcatraz tour, but so glad that I did both that and bay cruise. Both trips were a great introduction to San Fran bay and really enjoyed both!

Thank you John for your review. We are happy that you did enjoy both tours. You are so lucky to visit this year Alcatraz. With the Pandemic there is only 5 departures a day instead of more that 20 with half capacity per boat. There is an incredible low availability! There is a lot of pressure and last minutes changed from Alcatraz departure make it very very challenging for us. But we do the best to make sure our guest have a good experience.

It was not a legal buy. The police from the ferry came out and told us that we payed an illegal company which has nothing to do with them for this tickets. Also they were amazed at the price we got for them! Really really unpleasant experience and although I mentioned this, the company won’t give me back my money!!!!!!!!!! Nobody at the Pier 33 knew Hocine nor the company!

Dear Omar, sorry but it seams that you missed the second tour that was included in the price. Alcatraz shut down as a prison in 1963 since then there is no more police hahaha. After investigation you went in Alcatraz and I am sure you had a wonderful experience. Peace and love ;)

Do not use this service. We went to get our Alcatraz tickets and they couldn't locate our prepaid tickets anywhere. I even got on the phone to call Viator to resend the email with the tickets, but it STILL didn't have the information they needed. The Alcatraz ticket lady gave me advice to never use a 3rd party. Instead, book your tickets directly with the Alcatraz website.

Dear Stephanie, I am sorry that you couldn't go on your tour but we sent you by email your tickets the day before like everyone. Viator should be able to locate your tickets and help you with that. Also you could contact us and we would be happy to help you. Peace and love
