The Rock & the waterfront

Al Capone was once imprisoned here: the ferry takes you to Alcatraz, where you explore the cell house and the island. Back on land, you visit the sea lions at Pier 39, clam chowder at Fisherman’s Wharf and the Italian quarter of North Beach.

We pick you up at your hotel in San Francisco and bring you back afterwards. We will confirm address and time with you after booking.
