La recogida de los tickets crea confusión te dice un muelle y era otro el de punto de inicio... Luego el día de la excursión te citan en el punto de recogida y tienes que ir directamente al muelle... Nosotros pensábamos que era en grupo.. no por libre nose faltaba información en la reserva la verdad. Translate this opinion into English.

The collection of tickets creates confusion, it tells you one pier and another was the starting point... Then on the day of the excursion they summon you to the pick-up point and you have to go directly to the pier... We thought it was in group... not for free, there was no information missing in the reservation, the truth is. Opinion translated. Show original.

Cuando llegas a Alcatraz vas por libre, con lo que puedes tomarte tu tiempo para ver las cosas. A la entrada a la cárcel te dan un audio guía en tu idioma. El autobús turístico es un plus, ya que recorre media ciudad, tarda 2h y pico en dar toda una vuelta, si lo quieres usar para desplazarte se puede hacer pesado ya que solo va en una dirección. Hay algunas zonas interesantes que menciona que no pasa por ellas, te deja cerca, como las damas pintadas, lo cual es una pena porque no lo ves. Translate this opinion into English.

When you arrive at Alcatraz you are on your own, so you can take your time to see things. At the entrance to the prison they give you an audio guide in your language. The tourist bus is a plus, since it covers half the city, it takes 2 hours or so to go around, if you want to use it to get around it can be heavy since it only goes in one direction. There are some interesting areas that he mentions that he doesn't go through, he leaves you nearby, like the painted ladies, which is a shame because you don't see them. Opinion translated.

EL BIG BUS, esta muy bien la verdad. Una de las mejores formas de conocer la ciudad en espanol y moverte a bajo costo. Lo bueno tambien es que te cuentan 24 hs de uso desde que subis al bus. El tour de noche no tiene traducciones en espanol, consultamos y dicen que al dueno de BIG BUS SFO no le interesa tenerlo en espanol. El tour de Alcatraz esta bien pero te asignan el horario que quieren y si tenes poco tiempo te puede cortar el dia a la mitad como a nosotros. Pero es un un paseo obligado

THE BIG BUS, the truth is very good. One of the best ways to get to know the city in Spanish and get around at low cost. The good thing is that they count 24 hours of use from the moment you get on the bus. The night tour does not have translations in Spanish, we consult and they say that the owner of BIG BUS SFO is not interested in having it in Spanish. The Alcatraz tour is fine but they assign you the schedule they want and if you have little time they can cut your day in half like us. But it's a must ride

Dicen que en elntiket esta incluido 2 horas de bicicleta, pero te dan 2 horas si pagas 10 dolares otr hora. El autobús bárbaro, Alcatraz todo el.viaje en ferry d bida y vuelta solo inglés y en la.desxeipcion decía español.

They say the ticket includes two hours of biking, but you get two hours if you pay $10 for another hour. The bus was fantastic, and the entire ferry ride to and from Alcatraz was in English only, and the tour guide said Spanish.
