It really stunk that the audio suggested cut out fairly quickly. Otherwise ok. Difficult if you have any walking issues.

Hi sorry that you had problems with the audio tour. We recommend to download the app "Alcatraz Experience-Audio Tour" and bring your earphones. They have some big golf cart to transport people from point A to B in case you have walking issues.

Do not use Viator. They are very unprofessional. I booked two tickets for my wife and I to do the Alcatraz tour. They changed my times 2 times and sent me vouchers for three other parties of people to didn’t know. I had to wait for these other people I didn’t know to go in with me , these people I never meet had to wait for me to let them go.

I am very sorry that you feel this way. But Alcatraz is a National Park and it is open to everyone. I am sorry that you thought you will have Alcatraz just for yourself. To visit Alcatraz you will have to take a boat to join the Island with 250 people (half of it during the pandemic) and meet other people that are already visiting. I am sure you had a great experience during the tour. Peace and love

This was an amazing experience from the boat ride to the tour, extremely informative and eye opening. It was great getting to walk the same hallways as these notorious inmates.
