The cruise is not cheap but I thought it was worth it. It was such a treat seeing the Golden Gate Bridge up close and sailing beneath it. The ferry also sails very close to Alcatraz Island, so close that we can see the tourists in the island. It can be cold and windy while sailing so it’s a good idea to bring layers.

A tip to save a little on cost. Look out for coupons on tourist brochures. The ones we found saved us $4 for each ticket.

Great Views for the 3 Big Tourist Attractions for the Price!

We arrived early in San Francisco and after some research we decided to take the Blue & Gold Fleet for our Bay Cruise. For a $26 ticket each, we were able to see great views of the Golden Gate, Alcatraz, and the great city of San Francisco from the bay. We bought tickets for a 3PM cruise. But didn't board till 3:30PM. The deal is this, ONCE YOU BY A TICKET IT IS FIRST COME FIRST SERVE. So when I do it again, I would just get straight in the long line. While we waited, my wife held a spot in line while I got a pretzel and coke to tie us over till dinner. Once on board we went to the front of the ship on the right, starboard, which gave the best view of the sea lions at pier 39. With the waiting and cruise time of about an hour. You can expect this attraction to take 3 hours of your time if everything goes smoothly. Recommended. Thanks for reading. Photos were taken by my wife with her Nikon D90 and look great!

The first thing we did when we got to the pier was ask a person "an older woman with black hair" where the line was for the Escape from Alcatraz tour was? She gave us the answer with out even asking us if we needed to get tickets or redeem the tickets from online. Then after standing in line for 30 minutes, the guy told us we had to go back and get our tickets from that same lady. Why couldn't she have asked if we had anymore questions and we wouldn't have had to get out of line and lose our spot.

The trip was overall great and the views were vary beautiful. However, when we got off from the boat and went over to see our pictures that were taken the SAME LADY was there and she treated me and my fiancee horribly. My girl was holding her phone in her hand and the woman told her not to take pictures of the pre-taken pictures. Then, she stood there and watched my girl with the meanest face possible. First, her phone was off. Second, how dare you treat someone younger than you with disrespect when we showed you nothing but kindness. We were going to buy the picture, however, now you have made us not want to come back to the Blue and gold Fleet again. We will take our business elsewhere.

We did the escape from the rock tour. You get extra time going around Alcatraz. It was a great trip.

Boat was late to pick us up and then on the return we were told we would be dropped off at the San Francisco terminal which would have been a 45 minute walk back to pier 41, due to an equipment issue. No compensation offered. We were on our own to get back to pier 41. It looked as though they combined trips to save a buck. No proof of this but this company left a lot of people hanging.
