Description
Please Note: Tour itinerary may change due to the availability of Alcatraz tickets, your tours may have to be conducted on consecutive days.
Let our friendly and knowledgeable driver-guide pick you up from your downtown or airport area hotel in our air-conditioned motor coach. (Fisherman's Wharf area hotel guests will meet at our departure point at Fisherman's Wharf.)
Enjoy a fully guided 3.5-hour tour of San Francisco's most famous sites, including the Golden Gate Bridge, Chinatown, Nob Hill & more!
This unique tour features 3 to 4 sightseeing stops (subject to change according to driver's discretion), including a photostop at the world famous Golden Gate Bridge.

After approximately 7 hours, we will return you to Fisherman's Wharf or your San Francisco downtown or airport hotel.
Normally, the ferry tickets to Alcatraz sell out weeks in advance. We pre-buy the tickets and include them in this combination tour for you. This means that there will be 2 charges on your credit card. One for your tour, the other for your Alcatraz tickets. Please Note: We cannot sell Alcatraz tickets alone.
Please Note: Roundtrip transportation from downtown & San Francisco Airport area hotels available. If your hotel is located within 2 blocks of our departure point, you will meet us directly at the Wharf.

Wonderful! Got to see many parts of San Francisco that we otherwise wouldnt have been able to see/find on our own. The bus driver was very knowledgeable and personable. Very enjoyable. Excellent job!
The only problem we faced was that the shuttle pickup at our hotel was about 20 minutes late. We became worried that we would miss our Alcatraz and city tours and not be refunded our money as per the terms and conditions of the reservation.

The roads are for the experienced driver. I am from the midwest and was so happy with the decision to take the tour. We learned about the history of what we saw and felt safer with a professional driver. Worth every penny!!!!
