The driver was difficult to understand. I understood maybe half of what he said. Others on the bus agreed with me.
Why tell us something is up ahead or on the right or on the left and drive too fast for us to actually see it?
Bay crui..se was much better, with good narration. Very long line to get on boat - not a good thing.Read full review
I took a tour earlier this same trip with the same company and luckily got the same guide as last time, so my pick-up and transfer went super smooth. We got out of the city fast despite the traffic from Pride weekend and reached Muir Woods ..in a blur. We had about 2 hours there and it was the perfect amount of time to follow the different hiking trails, talk to the ranger guides, explore the gift shop, and get lunch. Our guide let us know the exact time to meet back up and everyone made it back early, so we left promptly.
At our guide's suggestion I got off the bus at Sausalito and was easily able to get a ferry ticket back to Fisherman's Wharf with his instructions. Luckily the weather had cleared up by then and I got to enjoy a sunny afternoon in Sausalito - plus the ferry took us right by Alcatraz!Read full review
The cruise was wonderful, but we purchased tickets online without an option for children.m so we had to purchase adult tickets for everyone. When we got to the ticket booth to redeem our online tickets I was told they had cheaper tickets fo..r kids, but since I bought them online they couldn't refund me the difference. Next time I will plan ahead and get the tickets to Alcatraz, or just buy the tickets at the booth on fisherman's wharf.Read full review
"I'm happy with my trip with Tours4Fun. It went to the Golden Gate bridge and then turned around. And then did a view of the skyline of San Francisco. It was nice and I would do it again. Although it wasn't easy getting the ticket. I had to.. return an email which I never received. And then I had to go to the booth where the boat was going to take off and pick up the tickets there. Versus, I was hoping that I could just print them from home and take it with me. I also had to confirm a couple days before as well. But Tours4Fun is more affordable than other sites and I didn't have to take the whole package. With other sites, I had to take all 3 options but with Tours4Fun I could just choose a lesser version of the same tour."Read full review
"My Escape from the Rock Cruise was on a good day, not too hot and not too cold. We went to San Francisco Bay then to the bridge and came back to the island to have a tour. Overall, it was a good experience. I liked the boat, the tour, and ..the view. I'll book again with Tours4Fun on my next trip if I have a discount."Read full review
"We're glad we did the Escape from the Rock Cruise with Tours4Fun. It was reasonably priced, real organized, and we enjoyed it. I was pleasantly surprised that the similar things at Fisherman
"We went to the Escape from the Rock Cruise to Alcatraz by Tours4Fun. We didn't actually go on the island and just went around it, but it was a great tour. The weather was good and it was a nice perspective. We've always seen it from the sh..ore and it was nice to see it from the bay itself. Overall, I'd recommend Tours4Fun."Read full review
"The Escape from the Rock cruise that Tours4Fun organized was really cool. They did a really good job. They had a lot of good historical facts about Alcatraz. I've never been on the Rock but I did learn a ton of stuff from the tour that I'v..e never known about so that was cool. They had the speakers on the boat really loud so that you could totally hear what they were saying even though it was windy. I like going underneath the Golden Gate and we saw a ton of wildlife - a couple of seals, a few otters and some dolphins. I would use Tours4Fun for another trip and I would recommend them to my friends. Booking a tour was super easy except that it was irritating that all of their confirmation emails got sent to my Spam box instead of being sent directly to me. I don't know why, but it's weird and a little frustrating because I had to look on my credit card to figure out where it was and then I found it in my Spam box."Read full review
"The Escape from the Rock Cruise was very enjoyable. We were nervous because they said something about having guards and ex-prisoners tell their stories, but thankfully it was over the intercom system so it was safe. I liked them talking th..roughout the tour. It was cool. It was also me and my 15 year old sonRead full review
"We took the cruise around Alcatraz through Tours4Fun and our experience was really great. We deeply enjoyed it. We had a wonderful tour, and the guide was great. He gave us all the information and stuff on Alcatraz and took a lot of pictur..es. I loved the way the tour went all the way around it. The boat was clean and they were very nice. Moreover, the customer service rep was very helpful and she would let me know exactly what time to be there at the pier. I wanted to know about the times because we were on a time limit and because I have a cast on my foot. They were very accommodating because I had a little scooter."Read full review
