What to expect

Get to know San Francisco’s most iconic waterfront destination. You’ll start with panoramic views of the bay and then head off to explore the rest of Fisherman’s Wharf. This includes the Embarcadero Promenade, historic ships, the sea lions of Pier 39, and food stalls selling specialities like crab sandwiches and sourdough bread.

The tour also takes you along a portion of the fabled Barbary Coast trail and inside the 1930s Musée Mécanique with its vintage oddities. Along the way, your guide will share how SF transformed from a quiet village into a bustling port city during the 1849 Gold Rush.

Afterwards, your guide will walk you to your cruise departing for Alcatraz. Board with your included ticket and enjoy the views on the ride over. Once there, you can tour the prison with the audio guide, admire the gardens and seabirds, and visit the many exhibits. Return at your leisure.

If you’ve selected one or both of the upgrades, there’s more waterfront fun in store. See it all from 150 feet (ca. 46 m) up on the SkyStar Wheel, or cruise the bay to views of the Golden Gate Bridge and more.

What to remember

Know in advance:

  • This tour includes a mile of walking at a moderate pace. Once you get to Alcatraz Island, the amount of walking is up to you, but there are some inclines, so it's recommended to wear good walking shoes
  • This tour includes a ticket to Alcatraz for a self-guided tour of the island. An audio guide, accessible via your smartphone, is available. The National Park Service only allows one official provider to offer cruises to the island. After your Fisherman’s Wharf walking tour, which covers some Alcatraz history, your guide will show you where to find your cruise
  • There are two optional upgrades if you'd like to enhance your visit. Enjoy a ride on the SkyStar Wheel or a one-hour cruise along the bay. Both of these upgrades can be completed anytime during your stay in San Francisco. Your guide will give you instructions on how to redeem these upgrades at the tour
  • Tours run rain or shine, so please check the local forecast to plan. In rare cases when the local partner needs to cancel for extreme weather, they will offer you the chance to reschedule or give a full refund

Remember to bring:

  • A government-issued photo ID is required for every person 18 years and older who books tickets to Alcatraz Island. You'll need it when picking up tickets at the Alcatraz City Cruises ticket booth, and it may also be required in the boarding area
