• The personal insight given by ex prisoners and guards.
• Wish we had more time!

“I recently took the nighttime tour of Alcatraz and found it a fantastic place to visit. An audio tour given by ex inmates and prisoners gives you an amazing insight into life on Alcatraz, while individual talks throughout the evening allow you to pick and choose what most interests you. We were amazed by Alcatraz's history as a military fortress, as well as home to many children and families of the prison guards. With fewer numbers of people allowed on the night tour, we had plenty of time and space to explore the island, and I would highly recommend booking early to get on this tour. We spent 2 hours on the island, and would still go back to see more. An excellent tour!”
