Overview

Save money when we assign your Alcatraz time.

This package combines a trip to Alcatraz with standard option of a two hour SAME DAY bike rental. Options for four hours or all business day San Francisco bike rental are also available for upcharge through the bike company.

You will be assigned by us a random Alcatraz ferry boat time to go inside the Alcatraz cellhouse with audio tour of the grounds.

We will also issue a bike rental voucher. You do not pick the order of the two tours. Once your Alcatraz time is sent you will then book your bike voucher and choose a time slot that does not conflict with your Alcatraz. Some days will be morning Alcatraz and bike to follow. Some days will be issued bikes first then Alcatraz in afternoon.

Your same day bike rental voucher is for two hours of "NON MOTORIZED" classic self guided bike rental departing from Fisherman's Wharf. You can upgrade to electric bike for additional fees.

Bike vouchers expire on your Alcatraz date.

Frequently Asked Questions (9)

Q: Will I get seasick on Inside Alcatraz and Two Hour Bike Rental Same Day?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
