      Alcatraz ferry + Bay boat ride
      It's strange not getting your tickets direct to mobile, but operator Al was very accommodating and helped me upgrade my tour. Alcatraz is ok but I've done better prison tours in Dublin + Nottingham

      Alcatraz Island is a must see when visiting SF! Checked off my bucket List!!! :)
      My Boyfriend and I had an amazing experience with Alcatraz Bikes & Tours! The Alcatraz tour is a must see/do once your lifetime. The customer service was excellent. We were given clear instructions on how our tour would go. We got to explore the prison and the ferry was an experience in its own. We also did the bay cruise tour; try to catch the last departure (4:30 pm) IT WAS AMAZING. Beautiful sunset!!!! Book your tickets Now! :)

      A must see
      So tried this as it’s been a bucket item for years. It gets crazy busy but it’s done now so I won’t have to trawl up the hill anymore🥵 keep hydrated if it’s a hot day and make sure your there early they won’t wait.

      Very nice experience!
      We had a great experience with Alcatraz tour! Initially I bought bike and Alcatraz tour package, but regretted later. We went to 571 Post St to get our tickets and Moustafa- the nicest person - was very helpful and agreed to exchange our tickets for Alcatraz+cruise tour free of charge, although this package was more expensive. Moustafa was so nice that he even sang a song and danced for my husband’s Birthday and gave him a present- a new package of chewing gums that he bought for his kids! His boss Al was also very friendly. We had a great time and were very happy. Highly recommended!

      San fran cycle and alcatraz trip
      Only had 1 day to explore San Fran , got bikes in the morning and was able to cycle the full way to Golden Gate Bridge, before stopping for lunch and getting boat out to alcatraz island. Good locks were provided with the bikes

      Probably worth the money
      A good tour, the audio tour through the prison cells is excellent and included in the price. A bit of a climb to the top but worth it and no problem if you are even reasonably fit. There is a 'tram' for those who are physically impaired

      Amazing service
      Didn't book early enough to get alcatraz tickets from the official provider. Ended up buying this package on TripAdvisor which had availability instead. Wasn't so sure about it at first but the owner of the shop is so so friendly and everything worked out really smoothly. Ended up cycling across the golden gate bridge which was amazing. If you can sort out overnight bike storage then you can return them by 10am the next day. Super recommend this package!

      Beautiful views, great experience, highly recommend.
      Easy and quick check in, we were given great bikes with locks and the guide was very informative about the different locations we could visit on top of when to get to the Alcatraz location to beat the lines. You can also split your package and do Alcatraz on your assigned day and the bikes the next day if you please, or do it all in one! Amazing views of San Francisco, would highly recommend to anyone looking for an easy and fun day exploring!

      Good experience
      I was traveling alone! But, I liked visiting the Alkatraz! I got my ticket from the location. And then, went to pier 33 to take the sheep to Alkatraz island. At first, I was worried that whether I can find the locations or not. But I could. So it was a good experience and I learned many things in this tour from Alkatraz prisoners and its history!

    I had a eTicket from Groupon which the owner Alladin refused to accept. He was very rude and adamant and said he doesn't have a scanner and cannot accept the e-ticket given by goldstar via Groupon while the eTicket clearly mentioned to show it to the shop owner. He refused to help in any other way. Moreover when he got to know that I had travelled from far to his store he mentioned he will be closing the store at 1pm while the website mentions that store is open until10pm.

    Unfortunately, today, we are afforded the veil of anonymity when misrepresenting the true nature of encounters. There needs to be a counterbalance to eviscerating businesses and negatively impacting their ability to make ends meet. As I expressed to you when we met, I do not have the ability to scan or, redeem Groupon QR codes. Your adamant refusal to consider the solutions I presented you, created the issue. I afforded you two alternative solutions. We took time explaining to you each possibility and you were implacable. There was no money lost, Groupon, refunded you 100% of your money. As for the bike rental, we offered you the same price as Groupon, confirming that you would receive a refund within 72 hours. You chose to not accept any solutions. Happy Holidays

    I booked an appointment the night before rental via this site, when I arrived the place was closed and no one answered my call. After contacting the vendor, I received a refund.

    Update: After reading my original 1 star review, I was contacted by an employee. He informed me that there was a break-in at their location the night before my appointment. He apologized & issued two free rental vouchers.

    We had an amazing experience with Alcatraz Bikes & Tours! The bike rental and Alcatraz tour combo was so much fun. Aladin's customer service was top-notch, and he gave us clear instructions on how our day would go. We got to explore SF on bikes and then took the ferry to Alcatraz. 10/10 recommend!

    Rude employee who doesn't know his job. We had reserved 2 bicycles with a child seat in advance. The employee knew nothing about our reservation. He didn't know how to install the child seats on the bikes so we couldn't get any bikes in the end. When I asked how we could cancel to get our money back, he said it had to be done through my reservation on the website. When I was logged in there but didn't see an option to cancel anywhere and asked how to do it, he said he didn't know and that I should just ask my husband. I told him that my husband didn't work there and he did, but he didn't want to understand that. When I asked for my money back in cash, he called me 'crazy'. Really not recommended!

    Hired two bikes for trip over the bridge from the store in Post Street. All worked really well, with the booking made on line the day before. Guy in the store was really helpful and gave us instructions on routes and ferries and there was a wide range of bikes to borrow. All good, thanks!

    It is the perfect plan for a sunny day. I got to the shop at 8 am on the clock, and got a great bike for just $29 with my hotel coupon discount.
    I felt really lucky at the Post St / Union Sq. location.
    Daniel was very helpful !! I actually got great ideas to go biking for a whole day.
    I think 10 - 12 hours was good enough for me, and you can drop off the bike at any location. Just go for it !!

    I booked a guided bike tour the night before. When I arrived it turned out the group had cancelled and I would be the only one for the tour. Miguel solved this very well. He offered me a full refund so I could go to another bike rental across the street or rent a bike for a day which was cheaper. He showed me on a map how to get to the Golden Gate bridge with dome information about the route, a bottle of water and one of their best bikes. Also I got the insurance for free. I had a great day by myself, crossed the bridge and went to Sausalito and returned with the bike on the ferry and drove along Embarcadero to return the bike. I would recommend Alcatraz tours. Miguel thanks for the great service.

    We chose this company after reading their reviews. We booked through Groupon and got a full days rental for 2 for $31! Karl who ran the office was excellent. Friendly, helpful and informative. We had light bikes with helmets, locks and maps. They were in good condition. This was an amazing deal and I can't recommend them highly enough! Thanks for a brilliant day!

    Had a Groupon voucher for bike hire, contacted the company in advance to.say which date and the response stated this was all fine. Details suggested that the two locations to pick bikes up were open 8-8. We picked the bikes up from Post St and were informed that the place would shut at 4pm. I asked about whether we could return to the other location, but was told would be a cost implication and that location would be closing even earlier! So we then had a few hours to get around as much of San Francisco as we possibly could which did put a bit of pressure on the day unfortunately.
