Go really early, crowds for wait time , ferry . Long Interesting , but flies all over, from ferry to all over island , birds 🦅 fly over , watch for poop droppings , such a strong stink when you pull into island . Staff where you pick up audio tour , headsets so rude!

You can use the museum audio or your own telephone with a QR code if you do this take your own headphones for comfort. Go really early before the crowds. You can’t eat on the island. Know as much as you can before arriving it will enhance your visit

The audio tour is great!
The audio tour is great! Everyone can enjoy this tour at his own pace. Also there are Park Rangers that will tell you more amazing stories about different aspects of the island and it's buildings.

Everyone should visit at least once.
Everyone should visit at least once. The history is interesting and the self guided audio tour lets you go at your own pace. Be prepared for a windy and chilly ferry ride there and back but the scenery is breathtaking

I was actually taken there by my friend, as I hadn't planned to go there and if I has missed this, I would have regret this until the rest of my life! I was very surprised, how great Alcatraz - place and its' history is. Not only the travel there is fast and pleasurable, but being there and listening to the audio guide with recorded voices of prisoners and guards, while doing a tour inside the Alcatraz prison is unforgettable experience! Highly recommended!JoannaCzech Republic - 10Scored 10

SIt on the top left part of the Ferry Boat on the way to Alcatraz for the best views of the Golden Gate Bridge (if not foggy) and the Island as you approach; bring a jacket/sweatshirt...you'll need it.

- From $887.03 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 4,854 reviewsStaff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was relatively simple from the outside, but the interior was very original and quite fantastic. The lounge was great, with many things to do for the entire family (table tennis table, outside grill for marshmallows, pool table etc.). The rooms were well equipped, and the photos matched the experience. The view of of the pier and Alcatraz was a big bonus.AlexanderHungary

- 8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 1,638 reviewsYou can't get any better location for a hostel than this. It's waterfront where you could see the Alcatraz from the hostel window and lots of land to walk around to or relax. The fisherman's wharf is just a short walk. Our 2-bunkbed room has high ceiling making it airy and smelling clean when the breeze from the outside comes in . Breakfast is simple but good! Staff are helpful.RodelUnited States of America

What Guests Said About Alcatraz:

Number 1 attraction is Alcatraz and you can't come here without visiting
Number 1 attraction is Alcatraz and you can't come here without visiting. Amazing experience. However this was probably surpassed by cycling over the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito and taking the ferry back. You will get amazing photos of the bridge doing it this way. World Series Baseball was on during our trip to California which San Francisco were in and eventually won which added an extra buzz to the city. In our time in San Francisco the Giants were in Kansas but the whole city was alive with Giants talk. Buy a MUNI visitor passport. At the start of the day you'll want to walk everywhere but those hills take their toll and you'll be glad you can jump on any bus, streetcar or cable car later in the day

A trip to Alcatraz island is worth the time but book before you arrive to avoid disappointment
Try the Big Bus an excellent way to see this large and varied city. Try later in the year the weather is good and the summer travellers will have gone home. A trip to Alcatraz island is worth the time but book before you arrive to avoid disappointment. If the crowds overwhelm you head for the Haight or the Golden Gate park where there is space for all.

Listen to the history of Alcatraz first hand from convicts and guards via the headphones while exploring the cells. The voices and background sounds bring everything to life.

Alcatraz is the most prominent tourist thing to do but if you don't want to spend an afternoon there, or tickets are sold out (get them in advance btw), just waking along the pier there is loads to see
Alcatraz is the most prominent tourist thing to do but if you don't want to spend an afternoon there, or tickets are sold out (get them in advance btw), just waking along the pier there is loads to see. If you only have a few days there, a good way to see the city is the bus tours.
