Reviews

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Alcatraz. The cost was reasonable and we were supplied with an audio guide at no extra cost. The island, despite it's having been a prison, is really beautiful. So many volunteers have made the entire island a pleasure to see. We spent quite a long time enjoying the landscape and the birds. The prison itself was absolutely fascinating. When you think of how tough it was for the prison employees and their families it boggles the mind. It is unfortunate that it was too costly to maintain as it seems to me that the same rules should apply to prisoners today in that they should have to earn any privileges.

Joan E., United States, 04-2012

The tour was very good. only complaint is against mother nature as it was a little chilly. :)

Clell B., United States, 04-2012

It's well worth the money and very professional.

Geraldine M., Ireland, 01-2012

The narrative on the boat was very good. We received what we purchased. The passengers on the boat were rude and pushy which was unfortunate, but not a reflection of the company. We enjoyed the trip.

Patricia M., United States, 11-2011

JAMES D., United States, 10-2011

well worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chris H., United Kingdom, 10-2011

Alcatraz tour was Very interesting...I would go again. The park is beautiful!

Tim S., United States, 10-2011

well reccommended

alisdair t., United Kingdom, 09-2011

Alcatraz tour was excellent. would have liked more time on the bay cruise, especially under or around the bridge, as soon as we got under the bridge we had a very quick turn around

Michael B., United Kingdom, 09-2011

A top tour

Clive C., United States, 09-2011

This was a nice boat tour of San Francisco Bay to the Golden Gate Bridge. Very informative. Be sure to wear warm clothing. Many opportunities to take pictures

Richard G., United States, 09-2011

Very good service

sally d., United Kingdom, 08-2011

The whole charisma of Alcatraz lived up to expectations. The harbour cruise was informative, but freezing on the day we went, however, we did chose to stay outside.

Helen B., Australia, 08-2011

It was awesome. Can't wait to go back. Very interesting tour :)

Sharol R., United States, 07-2011

This tour was wonderful. The audio-tour was very well done on the cruise boat. I would recommend taking the cruise a few hours before Alcatraz and then taking plenty of time to have lunch and wander to the pier for Alcatraz as the area offers many opportunities inbetween the two destinations.

Christina O., United States, 07-2011

Tour was great, Jesus was very helpful and entertaining.

Renae T., United States, 07-2011

Flexibilty allowed. I can plan my trip more easily.

Lai Shan C., Hong Kong, 06-2011

Laurie L., United States, 06-2011

Awesome

Jennifer C., United States, 06-2011

Fun. Well organized. Left and returned when expected. Alcatraz tour was awesome!

shirley r., United States, 06-2011

Just wanted to let you know that it was a amazing time with the tour. Gained much knowledge about California and Californian history (interesting place). I hope I get the chance to return to SF one day.

Stanislav C., Canada, 05-2011

Very efficient and reasonably priced. Alcatraz and the Golden Gate bridge cruise are a duo of delights and a must if visiting San Francisco.

ANNI M., United Kingdom, 05-2011

I liked the Alcatraz tour the best. The audio tour was very informative.

Pat P., United States, 05-2011

I found the website easy to navigate and I am not a computer person. The Golden Gate/Alcatraz combo tour is a little redundant,but do both to get the history plus more visual enjoyment.

Tracie S., United States, 05-2011

My sister and I had a wonderful time, Leonid was a great driver and tour guide. The alcatraz tour was awesome and so was the G G bridge

Angela G., United States, 04-2011

We were very pleased with the Bay Tour. It gave us a nice view of San Francisco, Alcatraz and the military posts in the area.

Lezlie R., Canada, 04-2011

Sarah B., United Kingdom, 04-2011

The tour itself was fine. There was some confusion however in coordination of the Bay Cruise and Alcatraz tour. We did not realize they were separate companies and went to the Bay cruise dock only to learn the Alcatraz tour was at another pier.

Fred S., United States, 03-2011

We enjoyed the fact that each person received a personal headset to listen to the information that was being presented about the tour. For the Bay Cruise, it was nice to know what we were seeing and to learn some facts about these places. The audio tour for Alcatraz was wonderfully done and we appreciated the fact that it was personal. You could start or stop whenever you wanted to avoid lineups or move ahead if needed. Also, very informative.

Michelle H., Canada, 03-2011

This is excellent value for money. I've always wanted to visit Alcatraz.

Stuart R., United States, 11-2010

the weather was perfect and so was everything else. I would highly recommend this tour.

john l., United States, 11-2010

Both trips were well organised.Alcatraz is a must.and the audio system is excellent.

Anne D., United Kingdom, 11-2010

Loved the whole experience.

gary a., United Kingdom, 10-2010

In our opinion everything worked out just perfect! Too bad the weather wasn`t too good, but I guess, this is something nobody is able to work it out ;-)

Michael H., Germany, 10-2010

Fantastic tours. Clear instructions and directions to assist travellers find the correct departure points. Great staff.

Jo-Anne G., Australia, 10-2010

Highly recommend this tour. Fun, informative, & interesting.

Sandra D., Canada, 10-2010

The tour was very well run and the audio commentary around the cell block was excellent

hilary h., United Kingdom, 09-2010

Alcatraz was great - Bay tour a little ho hum - but we had visited SF previously.

Philip D., Australia, 09-2010

We thought the visit to Alcaltraz was brilliant and use of the headphones was very informative, its a pity we live in Great Britain or else we would visit again. Thank you for a lovely time

Helen S., United Kingdom, 09-2010

hassle free

john k., Australia, 09-2010

My family of five all enjoyed both ferry tours. Alcatraz was the best of the two, but we did enjoy the Bay Cruise and found it very informative. My kids' ages are 7, 10 and 11 years and they all really enjoyed the tours! Thanks for a great experience!

Dawn S., United States, 08-2010

Excellent tour loved the Alcatraz tour.

Daniel H., United Kingdom, 08-2010

Other than the confusing wording in the advertisement, we had an enjoyable time on the cruise and Alcatraz.

Susan H., United States, 07-2010

good value for money

kevin b., United Kingdom, 07-2010

Great tour by water. Picture taking is at it's best from under the GG bridge!!

Shelley W., United States, 07-2010

This was my second time; bringing out-of-country guests each time. Listening to the audio commentary, I learned even more the second time around. It's a great way to see the San Francisco Bay and surrounding area, and to get up-close and personal with the Golden Gate Bridge. Loved it! Inside Alcatraz is a must see and seeing baby gulls on the island was a pleasant surprise.

Miriam D., United States, 07-2010

Excellent Experience

Kenneth B., United Kingdom, 06-2010

Fantastic

Danny W., United Kingdom, 06-2010

excellent trip

Richard G., United Kingdom, 05-2010

We would highly recommend this tour.

Sam H., United Kingdom, 05-2010

Boarding straightforward, good audio tour while on boat, great views of the Bay

GREGORY R., United Kingdom, 05-2010

Excellent

Imelda V., United States, 05-2010

I liked it.

Aaron d., United States, 03-2010

Boats seem to be old. In good conditions but old

carlos d., Mexico, 03-2010

Very well organized and was money well spent. educational experience as well.

Laura V., United States, 03-2010

very nice and worth paying for!!!

Tanya R., United States, 02-2010

This tour was a very excellent tour, everyone was very friendly, gracious and professional. This was a Christmas present to daughter, hubby and my sister. They all agreed the tour was awesome and the best Christmas present I could have given them. Thank you

Carol S., United States, 12-2009

We had a great time on this tour. The Alcatraz tour was wonderful and so was the Bay Cruise.

Tracy L., United States, 10-2009

The Alcatraz tour was very informational and organized. I liked that we could proceed at our own pace on the audio tour...although it was really crowded inside the buildings. I also appreciated that we were able to spend as much time on the island as we wanted...and the wait for the next boat back wasn't too long. Having the author in the bookstore who spent part of her childhood on the island was interesting. I enjoyed talking to her...and also bought her book!

James B., United States, 10-2009

The Alcatraz tour is a must. I've lived in California for 40 years and this was my first time going. The audio tour is excellent and you can go at your own pace, which was great!!

Carol C., United States, 10-2009

a must see tour

graham h., United Kingdom, 10-2009

I had a great time at Alcatraz & the tour was very informative. I learned a lot. The tour was great & it wasn't rushed. I got a chance to tour Alcatraz with the audio tour at my own pace with plenty of time to enjoy the island & prison because departure boats were available at different times. I really recommend this tour.

Michael M., United States, 09-2009

We enjoyed the Bay Cruise and Alcatraz and would recommend both.

Lynn W., United Kingdom, 09-2009

Ever thing went to plan the weather was excellent it was the icing on the cake,would certainly recommend the tour company

John B., United Kingdom, 09-2009

For the Alcatraz element the tour consisted of entrance fee & a ferry boat to & from the island which was as expected. The cruise takes you along the Wharf to out under Golden Gate Bridge. The bridge was spectacular from the water. The cruise then returns via Alcatraz, This provides views from the water of the bridge side of the island which is not so visible just from the ferry. The recorded commentary was good

Robert H., United Kingdom, 09-2009

We really enjoyed the Alcatraz tour as well as the Bay Cruise. All of the staff were very professional and they made sure that everyone was safe and had an enjoyable trip.

Terri F., United States, 08-2009

Just move to live here for a few years, family were visiting from UK. It was amazing, my children were to sure prior, but they couldn't stop talking about it after...excellent.

CLAIRE D., United Kingdom, 08-2009

alexandra a., United States, 08-2009

It was a very enjoyable experience; staff were professional and courteous and the whole trip was on schedule. Definitely a trip worth taking for the money

Shamita D., United States, 07-2009

Very organized, on time

Katrina L., United States, 07-2009

Alcatraz was more exciting than I expected it to be. I thought my 11 year old might be bored, but he enjoyed it as much as the adults. The audio tour makes it so interesting and keeps people moving so everyone has a chance to experience and see everything. I learned so much about Alcatraz that I didn't know before! Great time, we all enjoyed it. The bay tour was great as well. It gave us our first look at the bridge because it goes right under it. The audio tour on this is also so helpful as it points out many points of interests along the way. It also gives us an chance to see the back side of Alcatraz where the tour didn't go. Just such a good time!

Anne C., United States, 07-2009

we found the one hour bay cruise really great, make sure you wear your warm clothes though. What really made the cruise was the very informative guide (via headset, different languages available too), that was a bonus. Alcatraz was excellent and again the realistic sounds and information via headset is what really makes the tour. Book well in advance.

Rachel w., Australia, 07-2009

Very pleasant and enjoyable. Loved our guide Pam.

liz m., United States, 07-2009

Book early! Alcatraz fills up quick.

andrew b., United States, 07-2009

like both trips

owen g., United Kingdom, 07-2009

very satisfied

kurt g., United States, 06-2009

the view was great from the Golden Gate Bay cruise and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a quick tour of SFO.

Keren-Happuch E., Singapore, 06-2009

Great!

Carol E., United Kingdom, 06-2009

I really enjoyed the tour of Alcatraz. It was an excellent tour. It was worth every penny. The tour of Alcatraz was one of the best things my wife and I did during our trip to San Francisco.

Steve A., United States, 05-2009

good sight seeing, everything is well explained, also audio tours are very detailed and in language that is your preference

Paola C., United States, 05-2009

Great deal for the money! Must do this your on your visit to San Fran!

Yvonne E., United States, 05-2009

Truly enjoyed the Alcatraz tour while the Bay cruise could have been longer - 1hr was just too short...

Tracy K., Singapore, 05-2009

very great...we loved it...would do it again.

Arabella B., United States, 05-2009

Excellent tour, well worth the money

Connie B., United States, 05-2009

A very pleasing tour, very pleasant and professional staff.

Alyson M., United Kingdom, 04-2009

If you'd like to know the history of San Francisco and surrounding area, check out this guided bay cruise. You will not only leave with a new understanding of this historic place, but also with captivating views of the landmarks."

Janis R., United States, 03-2009

The early bay ride is best because less people attend, so the ferry wasn't crowded!! My son and I had a wonderful time and he (15 years) thanked me over and over for the nice day on the bay together. It was a wonderful bonding experience doing something fun and relaxing.

tracy m., United States, 01-2009

Fantastic tour and very good value for money.

Simon W., Australia, 01-2009

excellent

Nagalingam R., Canada, 12-2008

OK

AMNA S., , 11-2008

Great.

JoAnn M., , 11-2008

We really enjoyed this combination tour and would recommend that you book in advance, especially for Alcatraz. We were in San Francisco during the Scottish Autumn school holidays and had we not booked in advance, I doubt whether we would have got on to the island at all.

Lorna K., , 10-2008

On arriving at the wharf in San Fransico I found the staff at Golden Gate Bay Cruise and Alcatraz to be very efficient.

Susan T., , 10-2008

We were quite pleased with the tours we took. Alcatraz was very interesting and the information given on both tours was very informative.

Susan T., , 10-2008

I would completely recommend this tour. The ease of using email and prebooking was excellent.

Sheila F., , 09-2008

This was the first time my husband and I went to San Francisco, so we really wanted a guided tour. We loved both tours we went on and were impressed by the comprehensive, interesting, informative and easily intelligible recorded information/headphone sets. We're already planning to go on other guided tours with tourcorp.

Evelyn G., , 09-2008

Eugene W., , 09-2008

I was very impressed.

Bruce J., Canada, 09-2008

The Alcatraz tour is a must when you are in San Francisco, although the cruise around the bay can be disappointing due to the weather. We could see less than 50 percent of the Golden Gate bridge due to fog, the following day would be fine (unfortunately we only had one day to take the cruise even though the ticket is valid for a few weeks), therefore pick your days carefully when you are there

Donald G., United Kingdom, 08-2008

I think it should be envisised more the importance of early booking tickets for Alcatraz as it is impossible to cross on same day. The Bay cruise had excellent audio facilities and we found it very informative and made the whole trip very interesting it was also very well paced. Alcatraz also had good audio facilities and it definetly made the whole experience a lot easier being able to pr-book our tickets and not have to worry about trip availability. It would have been useful to have known the boat departure times before the day.

Mandy F., United Kingdom, 07-2008

I would definitely use Tour Corp again.

LISA D., United States, 07-2008

The ticketing process is a little confusing, the two piers are quite far apart if you have to walk between them, and the Alcatraz tour is VERY prompt. I think the Alcatraz tour is a little over priced, as you have to tolerate bird poop everywhere you go, and the island is very stinky AND most of the walking is very steep inclines. There is no way to adjust the headsets for the Bay tour and much of the narrating is too loud and the music and sound effects are cheesy.

Mary H., United States, 07-2008

everyone was satisfied

Anna L., United States, 07-2008

well worth the price

Liliana G., United States, 07-2008

Overall, good experience. It would have been nicer if the weather wasn't foggy that day.

Roanne P., United States, 07-2008

We loved seeing the Alcatraz and the bay area for 1 hour. Learned a lot from the tour guide on bay tour. The directions on the internet couldn't be easier. I printed my tickets off & did not have to stand in line to see if I could get a ticket. The pier was easy to find. You are a great company!

walker j. h., United States, 06-2008

Really could not be bettered

Rhys H., United Kingdom, 06-2008

The audio tour of Alcatraz was very interesting. I liked the fact that you could stop the audio at any time to spend more time at one place. It would be nice if that was explained when you got your radio set. The 1 hour cruise gave us a view of the city that is unique to the experience of just driving around the city. It was very educational and a great opportunity to take photos.

Monica M., United States, 06-2008

We were determined to take this tour to Alcartaz when our holiday was in the initial planning stages, and i have to say we were not dissapointed. The guided tour events were very interesting and informative, they cover several different areas military, Hollywood and other perspectives of the islands history, very worth while.

Carole R., , 06-2008

One problem was that the ticket machine at the boarding gate did not recognize our downloaded tickets. this was soon rectified in the office. Other than that very ell organised tour.

Stuart D., United Kingdom, 05-2008

The Bay Cruise tour and the Alcatraz tour were amazing. Very good value for money and simple to apply over the internet.

Joseph B., Australia, 05-2008

This was a great tour! Plenty of room to move about the ships.

Sarah R., United States, 05-2008

This was overall a nice trip all together. I just hope that there would be an easier way to purchase the tickets without having to buy them on a seperate transaction. (i.e. Alcatraz/bay cruise)

Tiffany P., United States, 05-2008

Both the Bay trip & the Alcatraz visit were very good and value for money. The commentary both on the boat & in Alcatraz was very detailed and informative.

Graham W., , 05-2008

Excellent service with clear concise instructions

Graham R., United Kingdom, 04-2008

We had a wonderful day on the Bay Cruise and trip out to Alcatraz. The Bay Cruise commentary was very knowledgeable and we learned quite a bit about San Francisco we didn't know. Alcatraz was great, I would recommend taking the 10am Bay Cruise and then the 12:45 Alcatraz Ferry to maximize your time at Alcatraz... we felt like we didn't have enough time going on the 1:20pm Ferry then needing to come back on the 3:05 Ferry to make it to SFO airport in time.

Amanda D., United Kingdom, 04-2008

This combination of activities made for a fun, busy day. We were very satisfied with the overall experience.

Suzanne M., United States, 04-2008

both trips were very infomative and very well staffed and very good on our safety. I enjoyed the cruise very much.

sherrie e., United States, 04-2008

Everything went well, my family really enjoyed both outings, the 6:30pm bay cruise was the greatest! Thank You

Alexander G., United States, 03-2008

We had a wonderful time the weather was great and the information was fascinating and informative.We got some fantastic pictures of the SF skyline ,Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz everything, the price was very reasonable for all we got to do thanks again for a great time.EA

Edwin A., United States, 03-2008

informative, would have been better if the weather was nice. Cold and rainy the day we took our tour.

leesa b., United States, 02-2008

a fabulous tour

laraine s., United Kingdom, 12-2007

We had a great time!! It was my daughter's first time in San Francisco, she was thrilled with the Alcatraz tour as well as the Bay cruise.

Elizabeth P., United States, 10-2007

The tours were great, and the guides were excellent.

meera A., United States, 10-2007

Alcatraz is a must see whilst in San Francisco.

Claire B., United Kingdom, 09-2007

It's great when you can reserve your tour and print a ticket from the other part of the planet!

Zvonimir L., Croatia, 09-2007

Both Tours were excellent - delighted that we had booked in advance as it would have been difficult to obtain tickets for the days we wanted to take the tours because it was very busy.

Kath D., United Kingdom, 09-2007

Very nice experience. Bay tour is nice, but not very special. A trip to The Rock is definitely a *must* for people coming near the SF Bay.

Tomas S., Netherlands, 09-2007

I was very satisfied

Jacques L., Belgium, 09-2007

massimo g., Italy, 08-2007

This was a great tour well run and just what it said on the website

janet f., United Kingdom, 08-2007

I will recommend to my friend to do it.

Montserrat A., Spain, 08-2007

First headset didn't work ( not recharged ) Had to replace. A Very Good tour!

John C., Australia, 08-2007

It was value for money and everything we hoped for as my husband wasn't able to do the tour last year because it was booked out.

Louise K., Australia, 08-2007

Good combination

Esperanza G., United States, 07-2007

Loved the tours and the friendly, helpful staff

Bernard M., New Zealand, 07-2007

Great

Alan B., United States, 07-2007

We visited San Francisco for one weekend, and tried to cram as much as possible into it,however that went out the window when the girls saw the shops. Our tour was a cruise round the bay and a trip to Alcatraz Island, thoroughly enjoyed both. We had an excellent and well narrated tour of Alcatraz and I intend to go back in the near future. Our only regret was that this Island is a large part of San Frans history and, from what we experienced a must see trip for all visitors, it was a shame that the authorities, local businesses and Californian lotteries don't restore all the buildings including the warden/family accommodation back to their original state as I think that access to this side of the Island would be a major benefit to the tours.

malcolm j., United Kingdom, 07-2007

I took both, San Francisco Bay and Alcatraz tour and let me tell that this is such a very good tour:well priced and the most important thing is that all the activities performed during the tour were done as described at the website, the on-line booking as well as the on-line tickets purchase are so easy...all this means that the company is reliable and it is a very important thing.I definitively recommend it.

ADRIANA J., Colombia, 07-2007

The Alcatraz trip is unmissable if you are visiting San Francisco. The Bay Cruise was extremely enjoyable and informative. Would definitely recommend to all.

John H., United Kingdom, 06-2007

Very good experience, enjoyed the tour very much. All the staff were very good and helpful. Well worth the money.

Gerard P., United Kingdom, 06-2007

The Bay Cruise Tour was very enjoyable. We'd taken the city bus tour the day before, so sightseeing from the water was a great complement to that tour.

Albert P., United States, 05-2007

The tour is highly recommended. An absolute must for every San Francisco visitors.

Roman M., Austria, 05-2007

Tour was easy to book,informative and enjoyable,highly recommended.

Bruce W., United Kingdom, 05-2007

I had a great day seeing the sights of San Francisco. The boat tour went as planned, even though the morning of my tour day was overcast & rainy; this didn't deter the tour from going ahead and it was actually nice seeing San Francisco in all kinds of weather. The trip to Alcatraz in the afternoon was excellent; the duration was the right amount of time & I was fortunate to get over on an earlier departure as I arrived at the loading dock well in advance of my booked time. My request to tour earlier was accommodated, which I really appreciated.

Jan S., Canada, 05-2007

We really enjoyed our tour.

Nancy K., United States, 05-2007

The tour that we took was really nice and interesting. I did not feel we had enough time so I would not recommend the evening tour.

Cynthia H., United States, 04-2007

When you look to go the 'see the sights' you often pay less attention to the providers of the tour than the sights themselves. That's exactly as it should be. It was the same thing in this case. The tour providers almost blended into the background, and that's the way I like it.

Claus H., United States, 03-2007

I love history, I spent a total of 7h on Alcatraz and I could have spend more, this place got some kind of spirit you've got to visit!

Eric V., Canada, 03-2007

On Alcatraz the personnel was very good for entertaining, and the cruise was great and also the explanation of the prison.

TINA p., Canada, 02-2007

Overall it was a great tour. It was rainy and my eight year old was more interested in playing with the umbrella outside.

Julie W., United States, 02-2007

I wasn't able to attend both tours, but the transit there was short from downtown and the staff was efficient

Eric D., United States, 01-2007
