No one can tell the Alcatraz tale like the men who actually lived it. The award-winning Alcatraz Cellhouse Audio Tour brings history alive through the actual voices of the correctional officers and inmates who lived on the island during the infamous Federal Penitentiary era.
Hear both sides of life in the island prison including such famous events as escape attempts, "The Battle of '46", food riots, and surviving solitary confinement.
The new Cellhouse Audio Tour is an expanded version of the original award-winning tour and includes new stories, new narrators, and explores new areas of the Cellhouse. The tour is available in English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese Dutch and Mandarin.
If you prefer not to take the Cellhouse Audio tour, we will be happy to refund the audio tour portion of the Alcatraz ticket price. The refund amount is $8.00 for Adults, Juniors and Seniors and $5.50 for children ages 5 through 11. Please let a supervisor know at the entrance to the Cellhouse.
