Alcatraz guides were extremely knowledgeable and it was a great vast amount of history that we learned. And the hop on hop off bus tour during the day was great and the night was even better two different sides of San Francisco. Francisco learned.

The DJ “rocked” the boat all night with his great musical selections. I enjoyed dancing the night away. The food was good, but my dessert choice was not very good. All in all, it was a nice evening with family and friends.

Alcatraz was fantastic, the bus tour was very good,however, the stops were still a long way from the attraction stated, particularly the stop for Lombard Street. There was a huge hill to climb to get to the big zag road.
