Description

Discover San Francisco’s most iconic sights and infamous stories with this combo tour that includes both a city highlights tour and a visit to Alcatraz Island.

Start your morning in Fisherman's Wharf, where you’ll hop aboard our open-air bus for a 90 min guided journey through San Francisco’s vibrant neighborhoods and historic landmarks. With a local guide leading the way, you’ll see must-visit spots like Lombard Street (The Crooked St), the Golden Gate Bridge, Palace of Fine Arts and more all with panoramic views and entertaining stories.

After your city tour, we’ll drop you off at Pier 33 (Alcatraz Landing) by noon, giving you time to grab a bite before boarding the 1:00 PM ferry to Alcatraz. Your ticket includes the official Alcatraz self-guided audio tour, where you’ll walk the same halls as some of America’s most notorious criminals.

Return to San Francisco at your leisure since ferries run back frequently throughout the afternoon.
