Alcatraz
Tours
Cruise to the
infamous and notorious former federal prison - home to the
likes of Al Capone, George "Machine Gun" Kelley,
and Robert "The Birdman" Stroud. The National
Park presents a captioned orientation video with historical
footage, self-guided walks, exhibits and Ranger-interpretive
talks on topics such as "Famous Escapes." Also
featured is an award-winning audio tour in the prison Cell
House with actual interviews of former guards and inmates
(available in six languages - English, French, German, Italian,
Japanese and Spanish).
To reach the Cell House, you must walk up a steep hill.
In addition to the famous prison, Alcatraz features some
of the most spectacular views of San Francisco and the Golden
Gate from the beautifully landscaped Agave Trail. The trail
begins near the ferryboat landing on the east side of Alcatraz
and continues just above the water level to the southern
tip of the island. A walk along the trail winds through
a protected bird sanctuary, ending at a stone stairway which
leads to the parade ground, formerly ringed by the houses
of guards and their families. The Agave Trail is open from
late September to about mid-February, when bird-nesting
season begins. (courtesy of http://www.blueandgoldfleet.com/abcsc.htm)
