Let's explore one of San Francisco’s most iconic landmarks: Alcatraz Island. Come with us on a night tour! 

As Bay Area locals, we're sharing our firsthand experience. From stepping onto the ferry to wandering through the eerie prison corridors—once occupied by infamous inmates like Al Capone and The Birdman.

We're taking you through:
✈️ A walk through of our experience
✈️ Recommendations on things we would do again, or things to avoid
✈️ Considerations to keep in mind if you or someone you know plan on going
✈️ A bit of the history of Alcatraz
✈️ The island’s later chapter as part of the American Indian occupation movement

We're sharing our practical travel tips for first-time visitors—including advice on parking near Pier 33, ferry schedules, ticket availability, and the best times of year to visit Alcatraz. And, whether a day or night tour is best.

Whether you’re planning a trip to San Francisco, a history buff, or just love a good travel story, this episode gives you an insider’s look at what it’s really like to visit Alcatraz Island.
