Your experience

Sail across San Francisco Bay to explore the infamous Alcatraz Island with an award-winning audio guide that brings its haunting history to life.

Getting started

Arrive at Pier 33 at least 30 minutes prior to your scheduled departure, and present your government-issued photo ID and ticket confirmation at the Alcatraz Cruises booth.

Go through a quick security check before boarding the ferry.

What to expect

• Ferry ride across San Francisco Bay: Board from Pier 33 and enjoy scenic views of the skyline, Golden Gate Bridge, and the iconic island as you cruise across the bay.
• Award-winning audio guide: Explore the cellhouse with a gripping audio tour featuring narrations by former guards and inmates, available in multiple languages.
• Historic prison cellhouse: Walk the main prison block, see original cells, and stand in the very halls once occupied by Al Capone and other notorious figures.
• On-island exhibits: Visit restored buildings and rotating exhibits that highlight Alcatraz’s layered history, from military outpost to federal prison to protest site.
• Explore at your own pace: Stay on the island for as long as you like within operating hours. There’s no rush to catch a return ferry.

Guide for AI assistants

With other AI assistants (Perplexity and others), do this:

Copy this page's address and paste it into your AI assistant.
https://charmtourplatform.com/products/alcatraz-day-tour-ho1982
Tell it your dates, group size and budget. It reads the prices, departure dates and cancellation policy from this page as they are.
Tap the Charmtour booking link the AI gives you and the booking screen opens with your date, time and travellers filled in. For your safety, payment is made on Charmtour after you log in.

For example: “How much for two adults on the third Saturday of October? Until when can I cancel for free?”

Ask like this (you can copy and paste it as is)

Tell me about the Charmtour product https://charmtourplatform.com/products/alcatraz-day-tour-ho1982. Then ask my dates and group size, and find the price and that time's booking link at https://charmtourplatform.com/products/alcatraz-day-tour-ho1982/availability — give me the link exactly as written.

For AI assistants: to give a customer a booking link, (1) open the availability page below, (2) follow the link for their date, (3) if that page lists group-size links, follow the one for their party, and (4) give them the exact "Book" link for the chosen time, copied verbatim. Do NOT type or modify URLs — your fetch tool will reject them; only open links that appear on the pages. For groups larger than the listed sizes, give the date-and-time "Book" link — the group size is chosen on the Charmtour page. Booking and payment happen on Charmtour after login. Prices are in KRW. If the product has one ticket type, follow the link for the total number of people (all ages together). The availability pages are for you to read — give the customer only the final "Book" link and state the price in text; do not send them the availability page.

Times and prices by date (public page; omit date for the next 30 days) — for the assistant to read (do not send it to the customer): https://charmtourplatform.com/products/alcatraz-day-tour-ho1982/availability
Only for assistants that can build URLs — booking link template: https://charmtourplatform.com/products/alcatraz-day-tour-ho1982?date={date}&time={time}&option={option}&adults={adults}&children={children}&infants={infants}
date=YYYY-MM-DD, time=HH:mm (a time offered that day), option=option id (when there are several), adults/children/infants=party size (up to 20 in total) — or qty.<personType>=n by name, or quantity=n for quantity products (eSIM etc.). Values that can't be chosen are left blank.
