The combination of two of San Francisco Bay’s most famous Islands, Alcatraz and Angel Island, make for a great day on the bay. This seasonal tour includes ferry rides to and from Alcatraz and Angel Island, a one-hour narrated tram tour of Angel Island, and the Alcatraz Cellhouse audio tour.
On Alcatraz Island, walk the Cellhouse at your own pace with the award-winning audio presentation “Doing Time: The Alcatraz Cellhouse Tour”. Stop to picture yourself in a dark solitary confinement cell, hear the stories of life inside from real prisoners, and feel the intensity of a prison breakout from correctional officers who lived and worked on the Island.
Your one-hour Angel Island Tram Tour is a short walk from the Angel Island dock. An audio tour is now available in French, Italian, Mandarin Chinese and Spanish that is offered only before the tram tour begins. Please see an agent on Angel Island to retrieve the headset before boarding the tram.
Accessibility requests can be sent in advance by emailing the special arrangements team at [email protected]
The second hour of your tour is spent as you choose: taking a walking tour, enjoying the cafe or chatting with a ranger at the Visitor Center.
Please note: All other tours or activities, such as the Immigration Station or segway/bicycle rentals, on Angel Island are not included in the Alcatraz & Angel Island Combination Tour ticket. Immigration Station is only open Wednesday through Sunday.

Cellhouse Audio Tour Included
“Doing Time: The Alcatraz Cellhouse Tour”
Tour the Cellhouse at your own pace with the award-winning audio presentation “Doing Time: The Alcatraz Cellhouse Tour”. Stop to picture yourself in a dark solitary confinement cell, hear the stories of life inside from former inmates, and feel the intensity of a prison breakout from correctional officers who lived and worked on the Island.
No one can tell the Alcatraz tale quite like the men who lived it. 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 Cellhouse audio tour is available in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.
