The Sutro Baths was a large, privately owned public saltwater swimming pool complex in the Lands End area of the Outer Richmond District in western San Francisco, California. Built in 1896, it is located near the Cliff House, Seal Rocks, and Sutro Heights Park. The facility burned down in June 1966 and is now in ruins within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area and the Sutro Historic District.

Pick up 8.30am Union Square Drove around the city on tour bus, had 4 stops with limited time at each location (maximum 20 minutes) Tour guide was knowledgeable about San Francisco but staff were discussing complaint from a previous tour (not very professional) this delayed our start time Dropped off at pier for Alcatraz tour, instructed from bus to collect ticket & checkin 30 minutes prior to departure at 2.15pm (dropped off at 12.15pm) Wouldn’t call it a full day guided tour

We are sorry to hear about your disappointment. Most guests will take about 3 hours to do the Alcatraz guided tour (you can take any boat back to the mainland) and return to SF between 4:00 and 5:00. That's pretty much a "full" day...but please call our guest services team @ (415) 357-0700 if you feel we misrepresented the tour.

Sorry to hear that you missed our text and email about the tour adjustment we made to avoid the challenge of doing the tour on the day of the San Francisco Marathon. We apologize for the delay but want to point out that the tour eventually saw everything that a normal tour sees. Please contact us about our Satisfaction Guarantee so we can put things right.

Our guide Michelle was very knowledgeable and imparted this knowledge very well. Very enjoyable especially if you like learning about the history of San Francisco. Would recommend this to anyone. Alcatraz was a great experience learning about the history of this place. Well worth visiting when in San Francisco
