DiscoverTown Tours
Similar deals
These two high quality tours can be done in the same day - or over more than one day. First, choose a date from the schedule for the Alcatraz prison tour, complete with headset audio (available in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish). Either before or after Alcatraz, you can enjoy seeing the city – from the high vantage of the open top vehicle, or sheltered on the street level deck of the bus. Considering how often Alcatraz sells out at the Pier 33 Box Office, this package is often a fantastic way to get a ticket to Alcatraz and take in several other great city attractions.
Departure Point
- The Alcatraz Island ferry & inside the prison tour components begin & end at Alcatraz Landing, Pier 33... departing at your designated tour time. Similarly, the Bay Cruise component begins and ends at Pier 41.
- The full loop on the Big Bus Open Top Hop-On-Hop-Off city tour begins and ends at 99 Jefferson St. -- but you can end your tour at any of the stops on the route, by simply not getting back on the bus.
