We loved our tour of Alcatraz. We spent a lot of time there. Our time to get on the boat was 1 PM but we were able to get on earlier. I think we were there around 11:30 and they let us on the boat then. Make sure to go to the ticket booth and use your vouchers from, this app to get your actual tickets and bring your drivers license with you. We did not end up going to the wax museum. We spent a lot of time on the island of Alcatraz, and we retired and just wanted to go back to our hotel and have a meal. We would highly recommend this Alcatraz tour. It was a lot of fun and very informative.

The fact that the actual prison is at the top of the island and there were escape attempts was wild.

Although the guides were knowledgeable and shared a lot of additional information about Alcatraz, I enjoyed the audio guide tremendously that I could pause where I felt the need to.
