Easy to navigate. The big bus stop made collection super simple. The audio tour at Alcatraz is really well put together, booking in advance is a must. Recommend packing extra layers for the night tour if you plan to sit on top of the bus, the wind chill is next level. Overall a great experience - highly recommend.

Rob was so much fun! He was very knowledgeable and gave a great tour. We had a great time.

Everyone was so helpful when we left something on the bus, and returned it to us. Thanks!

We loved it. It was a perfect afternoon with our 9 and 11 year old kids.
