In 1.5 hours, the cruise brought us to the Golden Gate Bridge, round Alcatraz, and to the Bay Bridge. There are stories told about these locations as well as San Francisco that bring them to life. It's a great way to see these sights and learn about them.

this tour is worth your money as it makes touring sfo very convenient. the places we went to are also advisable to be reached via taxis/uber, so this is a great buy. only downside is that the time allotted is very limited. it feels rushed. other than that, all went well.

Given a short time with the city, this is a great and worthy scheduled tour, giving you a glimpse of the best in the city. I really enjoy and appreciate our tour guide and driver. It is also nice that the weather is good.

This was my first trip to the United States, and when I came to San Francisco, I had to visit the Golden Gate Bridge and the very special Alcatraz Prison, so I chose Klook’s half-day tour. The meeting point is at Pier 33, and the Uber address is preset, making it easy to find. The instructions were clear upon arrival, and there are toilets on site and on the boat. It is recommended to scan the QR code and queue up early, which will help you choose your favorite seat when boarding the ship. The boat is very big, both indoors and outdoors, and there is also a hawker shop (you can only pay by credit card). Alcatraz Island is very close and will arrive in about half an hour. After landing on the island, someone will stand on a small stage to explain it to everyone, and then everyone can explore on their own. , follow the direction everyone is walking and you will arrive at the audio cellroom, where you can get audio guides for various countries. They are available in all countries. Please tell the staff on site how many people are you traveling with? Which language? Someone will help you set it up, and then you can follow the instructions to start listening and walking around. If your walking speed is slower than the tour guide, you can press the pause button and wait until you reach the next tour area before pressing play again. After walking along, you will reach the return office, and then visit the souvenir area. It is highly recommended to buy something as a souvenir. The return boat does not need to match the ticket time, you only need to gather at the port and wait for the next boat to board the boat and return. For the next one-hour cruise experience on the Golden Gate Bridge, you need to go to Pier 39. There is a small yellow and blue room to exchange tickets. Use QRcode to exchange for paper tickets. Go to the queue 15 minutes before the ship arrives. Personnel before boarding We will take commemorative photos for everyone, and you can buy them when you get off the ship. It costs 42 US dollars but there are three photos, which is very memorable. There are outdoor and indoor areas on the ship. It will pass by the bridge, cross the bridge and go around in a circle, allowing everyone to take photos to their satisfaction. After getting off the ship, you can visit Fisherman’s Wharf and Pier 39, it’s perfect! In short, I highly recommend everyone to buy this trip. I believe it will be a great memory in San Francisco.

Alcatraz island tour was interesting and informative. The audio tour is worthwhile and the views from the island impressive. The bay cruise we did at sunset and it was amazing. Definitely recommend
