Visit Alcatraz with included ferry and admission, and enhance your journey with an immersive audio guide that stays with you from the moment you board the ferry to the moment you return. Available only with this exclusive ticket.
Step beyond the standard visit to Alcatraz with this exclusive package that includes official Alcatraz admission, round-trip ferry tickets, and a cinematic audio tour that accompanies you every step of the way — from the moment you depart Pier 33 to the moment you return from the island.
This isn’t just a prison tour. Our app-based audio companion reveals stories most visitors never hear: Indigenous history, hidden gardens, island families, art installations, and powerful moments of protest and renewal.
Download our app before your visit and use your headphones to follow along as you:
Ride the ferry across the bay with immersive narration and soundscapes
Explore the island's dramatic cliffs, gardens, and ruins with guided storytelling
Reflect on the deeper meanings of justice, resistance, and transformation during your return journey
This audio experience is designed to complement the official Alcatraz Cellhouse audio tour (which is also included), giving you a complete and unforgettable view of the island’s past and present.
At checkout, you can select the Alcatraz Night Tour option, which includes evening ferry service, guided introductions by park rangers, and access to areas not open during the day. With fewer visitors and special programs, the night tour offers a more intimate and immersive experience of the island.
