Alcatraz tour reviews from happy travelers
Our tour was truly tailored to our group, and Chet Peeples was the best tour guide! He gave us all the perfect tips and tricks. Highly recommend booking this tour early on in your trip.

Rob was GREAT! He was very upbeat and made the long walk worthwhile. He took our pictures and emailed us the pictures. He also made sure we made the ferry to Alcatraz on time.

I would highly recommend this tour. Seth, our tour guide, was very friendly and easy to talk to. Alcatraz was the highlight. You are given an audio guide, which was included in the price and was great for stories of the prison.

We loved our Fisherman's Wharf Walking Tour with Eric! He's extremely knowledgeable of the area and an excellent guide. It was great to hear recommendations of food and activities in the area from someone who actually lives here.

This was a great start in SF. Dara made the turn interesting and fun. We upgraded with Alcatraz tour and it is not to be missed. I would highly recommend this tour your first day in SF.

We loved our walking tour! Eric had so many interesting facts that it was one of the highlights of the trip! It was really cool to hear about the city from someone whose family has lived there for generations.

This was a great way to start our anniversary trip. It gave us a lot of good info about Fisherman’s Wharf that allowed us to plan the rest of our trip. Great time and would highly recommend it.

John Hurst was an excellent tour guide. Helpful to get us where we need to be and where we can eat fresh fish, crab, and other great places to see.
