Each tour went smoothly and they are right next to each other so we did Alcatraz and the cruise back to back

Incredible history made known. Including prisoners, prison guards and their families and a community on the rock. It was hard to hear the ranger speak, so a microphone is suggested. Walking through the buildings and property was an incredible experience, leaving you with a sense of what life was like for the people placed in the prison.

Poor directions, did not get tickets, did not get refund. Missed entire cruise had to book with another group. I tried to communicate with company and got nowhere.

The story was informative, interesting, and exciting. I enjoyed learning and hearing the stories shared. The gift shop was nice, and the boat ride there and back was awesome. The staff was accommodating and kind. Thank you.

The Alcatraz part of the tour was very good however when we tried to redeem the 2nd part of the trip for the san francisco bay cruise with the tour operator 'Blue & Gold Fleet' we were told that "we are only entitled to the 2.45 pm tour" despite our voucher stating 'any departure time with multiple departures daily', and a tour about to depart half full !!!!!! We were told this was the case on any day of our remaining trip ??? Unfortunately our itinerary would not allow us make this time slot. Disappointing and I will be seeking a refund for this portion of the tour.
