The tour was a nice way to see San Francisco. I was a bit disappointed that there was such a large gap in my day between Alcatraz and the rest of the tour. Instead of lunch on my own, I was hoping for lunch in Sausalito as the booking stated. It was a bit misleading to be honest.

Interesting
This was an audio tour. It was interesting to hear about all the history of Alcatraz & some of the more notable prisoners.

It was a great mix of local history, nature and fun facts. Our tour guide, Dylan did a great job…very knowledgeable and helpful. The San Francisco tour was a little shorter than expected but took in a few well known spots. Muir Woods was beautiful and enough van be seen in the hour and a half allowed. We added the Alcatraz Tour to our trip and the tickets were waiting for us at “will call” and we had time to grab something to eat before getting on the ferry. It was a good tour!

Fantastic experience
We had an amazing day with our guide, Eric. We were in town for the World Cup and this was just as enjoyable for the family. He was great with the kids and keeping their interest and excitement throughout the tour. Alcatraz was fantastic, especially the Indian Land exhibit. You can explore every part of the island in under 2.5 hours and get back on the boat.

Well worth doing
A bit confusing but that might be me this is run by 2 different tour operators one on pier 33 the other on 39 only a short walk between the 2 to be fair.
Overall very good Alcatraz very much self guided and the Bay cruise commentary is very informative and you see a couple of sides of the golden gate bridge close up that are hard to see from land.

Very worthwhile tours in SF
The ferry ride to Alcatraz was as expected. A beautiful day made it very pleasant. Once there, we did the cell block audio tour, which should not be skipped, and walked the grounds. Lots of flowers and garden plantings, as well as fantastic views of San Fran, made for many photo ops. We also did the full big bus tour and learned about/saw a lot of the city we probably would have missed otherwise. Overall, A+.

Great day out
Had a great day out with Dylan on this tour . He was very Knowledgeable and we went round lots of streets and areas with plenty short stops for photos before we went to the woods . There was no stopping in Sausalito only a drive through before we headed back to go to Alcatraz. He was great at telling us when to be back and how long we had in each place.

We took the tour with Buddy and it was good as he brought us around San Francisco to all the major sights and the dropped us off at Alcatraz for the tour. The only draw back was no time for lunch other than eating something on the run.

Buddy our guide was the best- very kind, personable and knowledgeable about SF; covered historical facts and interesting information about all the points of interest in the city. The Alcatraz portion was also excellent. Total experience 5 stars! True value!
