First, choose a date from the schedule for the daytime Alcatraz prison tour, complete with headset audio (available in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish). Either before or after Alcatraz, you can enjoy a "boat-load" of spectacular views along San Francisco Bay. (With wifi/mobile phone audio tour available in nine languages: English, Spanish, Mandarin, Italian, French, Japanese, Korean, German, and Taiwanese. ) Considering how often Alcatraz sells out at the Pier 33 Box Office, this package is often a great way to get a ticket to Alcatraz and make memories going under the Golden Gate Bridge.
