What You Will Do
These two high quality tours can be done in the same day - or over more than one day.
First, choose a date from the schedule for the Alcatraz prison tour, complete with headset audio (available in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish).
Either before or after Alcatraz, you can enjoy seeing the city – from the high vantage of the open top vehicle, or sheltered on the street level deck of the bus.
Considering how often Alcatraz sells out at the Pier 33 Box Office, this package is often a fantastic way to get a ticket to Alcatraz and take in several other great city attractions.
What's Included?
- Variable Departure/Arrival Location for Hop-On-Hop-Off City Tour
- Round-trip ferry from Pier 33, San Francisco to Alcatraz Island (Value: $45.25 USD)
- Note: The date you choose is the date of your Alcatraz Tour
Cancellation Policy
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
Itinerary
Meeting Point
