Alcatraz Island
The world famous federal prison is top of the list of things to do whilst in San Francisco. The audio tour is fascinating and wandering around the prison is eerie and at times emotional.
We recommend you book tickets 3-4 weeks in advance of your trip (especially during the summer) and get the first boat out in the morning to beat the crowds. Buy your tickets directly from alcatrazcruises.com to avoid over charging, tickets cost $31 for an adult entrance.
We have a full guide to visiting Alcatraz here, including tips for booking tickets and when to visit the famous prison.
