This ticket includes a round-trip ferry, official Alcatraz admission, and the "Doing Time" audio tour narrated by former inmates and guards. Cross San Francisco Bay by ferry while taking in the Golden Gate Bridge, the Bay Bridge, and the city skyline, then explore the cells, solitary confinement, recreation yard, and dining hall at your own pace. When you order a meal at Mona Lisa Restaurant or Steps of Rome Trattoria in North Beach's "Little Italy," you also receive a free appetizer. This experience often sells out weeks in advance, so booking early is recommended.
