Alcatraz Island
#1 Tourist Attraction in San Francisco!
Alcatraz is worth the hype! The audio tour is excellent, and it’s a fun experience taking the boat out to the island. You can buy tickets for “just” Alcatraz here, but oftentimes it is sold out. However, there are many tour companies that pre-purchase lots of tickets and combine Alcatraz with something else. You can see a full list of those options here.
