The audio tour was very well done. Informative and easy to follow instructions. Even with crowds the process flowed well. We were just a little disappointed that the cafeteria was not available to view. But the upkeep and maintenance we know is extensive and continual.

Alcatraz

Ferry ride over was very nice. Audio tour at the top of the island was informative and interesting. Warning it is a steep climb up. I liked that they offered a tram service (free) up to the top and down for people that need assistance.

The First "Super-max" Prison.

The interior audio tour of Alcatraz was interesting, informative, and sobering. The cells are incredibly small, sparsely furnished, and undeniably uncomfortable. Solitary confinement cells are nightmarish.

Dress very warmly and arrive 30 mins before departure to the tour area. It was nice to have the freedom to roam and listen to the tour without being on a tight time schedule. Great family adventure.

Not fair- ticket price was double the price in pier 33

I purchased 3 Alcatraz tickets and when I went on pier 33 I realized that the ticket price was double the price at pier 33 . They were selling $44 for each ticket but I bought each for $80. That was not fair at all. You should give my money back

Nice day in San Francisco

Very interesting tour learning how life was inside the island. We were dropped off and your tour begins with a talk and then the day is yours. You decide when you want to go back so no pressure to finish a certain time frame.
