The great value pack combines the best San Francisco experiences into one - a hop-on, hop-off bus tour across San Francisco, a Chinatown Walking Tour and a visit to the historic Alcatraz Island.
San Francisco hop-on, hop-off bus tour
Discover the stunning City By The Bay at your own pace with fantastic views from the top deck of an open-top bus. Hop on and off as you wish to visit the attractions of your choice - from Chinatown to the Palace of Fine Arts, while enjoying multilingual audio commentary in multiple languages on board. Hop on and off at any of the stops and customize your sightseeing itinerary according to your preferences.
Attractions Covered on the Bus Tours
Alcatraz Audio Guided Tour
Also known as 'The Rock', the federal prison once established on Alcatraz Island is synonymous with notorious bank robbers and murderers like Al Capone, 'Machine Gun' Kelly, and the 'Birdman of Alcatraz', Robert Stroud. Now empty, and managed by the National Park Service, you can explore the infamous facility on a 45-minute audio tour "Doing Time: The Alcatraz Cellhouse Tour" featuring prisoners and correctional officers who used to live and work on Alcatraz.

Wheelchairs can be collapsed down and stored on the bus but the buses are not equipped with ramps and therefore passengers would need to walk up 2 steps.
The locations that the bus stopped at were great locations and all those that my husband and I came in contact at this company where extremely helpful and friendly....
