I booked at the 11th hour. The booking team was extremely helpful- they texted theQR code so I didn’t need to go collect the pass. We had a great trip - just the right weather for a short cruise and in good comfort. The free snacks were an added bonus.

Great trip, friendly & knowledgeable driver.
Absolutely fabulous tour of San Francisco in a classic VW T2b Transporter. Our driver Clay was friendly, told us loads about San Francisco as we drove round. Swapped peoples seating position in the VeeDub to ensure everybody got a different view. Plenty of photo opportunities too Culminating with a ‘spirited’ down Lombard Street before heading back to the pick up point

Great views of SF Bay
I am a local to the Bay Area, but I’ve never done this night cruise of the bay. I would highly recommend it to locals or visitors. It was beautiful, calm, relaxing, and everyone in my party really enjoyed it.

Alcatraz City Cruises: Official Admission Ticket

A San Francisco Must
Booking online easy and ferry boarding easy. At Alcatraz there is quite a steep walk up to the tour start - then a free audio provided and tour to follow. Extremely interesting - as expected - and much enjoyed! Tip would be to have a clothing layer - the wind in the exercise yard is biting and we were there on an extremely hot day! Views stunning.
