Sunset joy - A lovely relaxing tour of the bay. Sadly our Alcatraz tour was cancelled due to an electrical outage so we felt at least we had the opportunity to see the exterior. We also had time to take photos around and under the bridge The crew were helpful and super nice. This has been our experience throughout our stay - lovely people. Our only comment would be, collect your tips on disembarcation. We couldn’t see a jar anywhere !!

Good tour, would prefer a live narrator. - They were friendly, the boat was clean, and they took us on the tour. Just wish they had an in-person narrator instead of a pre-recording. On other tours with live narration there is a lot more interaction/character/personalization/local knowledge and commentary. Still a good little tour though.
