Known to the world as “The Rock,” the prison was famous for housing inmates like Al “Scarface” Capone and the “Birdman” Robert Stroud. Listen to a 45-minute audio tour and hear stories from inmates themselves and step inside a prison cell to see what life was like during that infamous era. Return to San Francisco at your own pace; ferry boats return every 30-40 minutes.

Take a scenic drive through the seaside town of Sausalito, famous for its views, local boutiques, and cafes.

Awesome trip well worth the money

Published on Oct, 2024

Our driver Patrick was awesome,he kept us thoroughly entertained. He also found a fantastic spot for a good picture of SF and GGB. Alcatraz tour was really interesting also. Only thing to mention was a rude young blond lady setting up in the morning annoyed she had to work and actually talk to customers. She wanted to chat on her phone instead.

Amazing experience
