The tour guide was not particularly friendly but very knowledgeable throughout the city tour. Alcatraz was great. The audio guide was very easy to follow and the cruise ship staff very good at organising large numbers of people. Definitely recommend but book early as trips to Alcatraz were booked out for a week.

one of the best days I had in san fran...what a special place in history..A must see.. walk the cells, hear all the stories, see the view and wonder why no one escaped..no ghosts but very interesting trip to the rock...city tour gave me the feeling of joy and what a special area in USA...Do this tour if you want to to see the real san fran...sit back and enjoy the trip I did ...

Great audio tour of the Alcatraz cell block, a really great tour overall.
SF bus tour met all or our expectations and tour bus commentary was fantastic.
Highly recommend this tour package.

Excellent tour! Very knowledgeable driver, full of interesting information. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to get a brief overview of all the sights and can then re-visit those they want to in more depth.

Great if you haven't been before, the city tour was great to orientate before you go it alone.

Tour guide very knowledgable. I really learned a lot about the city. He even gave tips about great restaurants.

The tour was great. Our bus driver/tour guide, Greg, was just the best. We had a really great tour. My one issue is that for the Alcatraz part of the tour in the afternoon we had tickets for the 2:50 pm boat. By the time we arrived on the island and got started with the audio tour, it didn't leave us sufficient time to really see everything before we had to head back to the mainland to get the bus back to our hotel. So, we cut our visit to Alcatraz short and got back in time for the bus. Trying to give your clients earlier tickets for the boat would have been nice. Despite that, we had a great time and will use Viator again.
