Disappointing that large parts of the prison are no longer accessible and those that are, are really really poorly maintained and untidy. What is advertised as a 2 to 3 hour excursion is more likely a 1 to 1 1/2 hour at most.

I have been in San Francisco 3 times and for the very first time I get to visit Alcatraz, overall is a great experience but I love history and would love to have more about facts, about stories that happened there. To have access to other buildings

BEWARE: This company is not an authorized official provider, they take your reservation then go to official providers website to book your reservation using your information and their virtual card. They never send the tour operators actually confirmation. They run two websites selling exactly same thing in order to scam as many customers as they can. Their other website is Alcatraz-tickets.com. They also a running same scam in New York for the Statue of Liberty. They just appeared online in February of 2026 and have no experience selling tickets to Alcatraz. Also website made with Ai, including ads.

Overly crowded, was not informed that large sections were under construction and the audio equipment was broken

We don’t normally go on tours. But, I wanted to take my granddaughter to have a different kind of experience on our trip together, so I chose the Alcatraz tour. It was sooooo interesting and well done. The short ferry trip itself was fun and beautiful. The tour was so unique and interesting. I think the best part was having the audio tour use the accounts of the actual wardens, inmates, and guards tell their own stories. It was just the best. Thank you!

Booking process, was easy. Boat ride was great to and from. We felt rushed through audio tour only because it was extremely crowded. We would have enjoyed it more if they limited the amount of guests. The island was under construction would have liked to explore more.

The jailhouse tour was the highlight of the journey
