The Experience

What your day looks like

Day 1: Start your adventure with a visit to Alcatraz Island, once home to one of the world’s most notorious prisons. Catch the ferry from Fisherman’s Wharf and explore at your own pace with the multilingual audio tour. Wander through the eerie cells, learn about escape attempts, and discover the island’s history as a fort, penitentiary, and site of Native American occupation—all while enjoying sweeping views of the San Francisco skyline and Golden Gate Bridge. Day 2: Hit the streets with a full-day e-bike rental and design your own sightseeing route. Cruise across the Golden Gate Bridge, snap photos at Baker Beach, grab coffee in North Beach, or sample tacos in the Mission. With the e-bike helping you conquer the city’s hills, you’re free to explore neighborhoods, murals, parks, and historic districts at your own pace. After your ride, return to San Francisco by bike, or opt for a ferry back (ticket not included). In high season, a Sausalito bike drop-off is also available for an additional fee. Please note, that the date you select when booking will be the date you will visit Alcatraz. Once confirmed, your Alcatraz tour date can not be changed. Your bike rental will be auto-booked for the day after, but can easily be redeemed any time during your stay in San Francisco instead!
