    Short but worth it

    Celia_B, Oct 2025
    Took convertible van on Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito, had lunch overlooking the water, then dropped at Pier 33 ferry for Alcatraz.

    What a fun filled 2 hours!!

    Viator a rip off company

    Trenese_W, Jan 2025
    Over priced , rip off, you need to be an athlete, to many inclines , and mold and mildew . Took the trip to sasalito and Viator only paid one way , this was not worth $197.00

    Response from Host, Jan 2025

    Trenese: The prison cellhouse dates back to 1910. It is an old prison with history. It is also on a hill that is clear from San Francisco that it is on a mountain. There was a S.E.A.T Program tram that takes guests who need assistance to the top of the mountain. You were given round trip service to Sausalito and failed to check back in for the return when the van was departing back to San Francisco. You were told to return at our location at a certain time and failed to report back. We sent tickets to your email and even texted to your phone. You then called us saying you had no tickets and we sent pictures of them to your phone. We tried so hard to help you out! Rip Off? You actually paid for the lowest Alcatraz Combo package on Viator. It is an incredible value! We actually had two people cancel so you were very lucky to get a ticket to be honest.

    Best Trip!

    Found my retirement place

    The guy who took us on the tour was amazing. Sausalito is an amazing cute little town. Alcatraz was ok. Thought you'd be able to see more of the island.
