Please check your boarding pass for pick-up time at your location.

Depart Clovis at 6:00 a.m. aboard a comfortable Best Tours & Travel luxury motorcoach and head north to San Francisco for a captivating experience that brings history to life. A 30-minute rest stop will be made enroute before continuing to the heart of the Bay Area.

Upon arrival, guests will be dropped off at Pier 33, where Alcatraz Cruises awaits to ferry you across the bay to the iconic Alcatraz Island—home to one of America’s most legendary former federal prisons.

This unforgettable visit includes a round-trip ferry ride and a self-guided audio tour of the prison’s hauntingly preserved cellhouse. Discover the stories of infamous inmates like Al Capone and “Machine Gun” Kelly, learn about daring escape attempts, and walk the very corridors where history was made. The tour also includes access to the prison yard, mess hall, and other historic buildings, with stunning views of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco skyline, and Angel Island along the way.

After your return ferry ride, enjoy free time to explore the nearby Fisherman’s Wharf area or make your way over to bustling Pier 39, just a short walk away. Whether you choose to shop, grab a bite to eat, or simply soak in the ocean breeze, the waterfront offers a perfect conclusion to a truly memorable day.

We’ll depart San Francisco at 4:00 p.m., with a rest stop along the return route. Arrival back in Clovis is scheduled for approximately 8:30 p.m.
