Highlighted reviews from other travelers
Alcatraz was very interesting and well worth visiting . The cruise around the bay and seeing the Golden Gate Bridge was fantastic. We had a really great crew and I would definitely recommend.
We really enjoyed this activity but be aware this is 2 separate activities. In the morning we has a city cruise ferry to alcatraz, looked round it using an audio guide and got the ferry back. Later in the day we went on the completely separate catamaran which was great fun!
