Blue & Gold Fleet's Escape From the Rock Cruise is an exciting 90-minute excursion that takes passengers around Alcatraz to view the island from every angle. As the ship sails, passengers are treated to a presentation complete with sound effects and chilling tales of inmates Al Capone, Billy Cook the Killer and Clyde Johnson's daring escape attempt. This historical yet entertaining boat trip does not stop at the island of Alcatraz itself, but it does evoke the days when this iconic maximum-security prison was the most feared institution in the American penal system.

We did not use the tickets, because we thought we were going to tour Alcatraz. Disappointed!

Waste of money! DO NOT BUY THIS!!! There is no entrance to Alcatraz. This event just drives in the water never getting to Alcatraz. It's a scam!!! You just pay to be in a boat for 90 minutes with nothing to do! Waste of money and time. We ended paying more money to do the actual tour into Alcatraz with a legit company. It cost the same! Goldstar refused to refund the money! This purchase is deceiving. Pay for the real tour and see Alcatraz. It was fabulous! I really wish Goldstar would credit me my money and remove the Escape from the rock package. It's a scam and I hope people read this and don't purchase and get scammed out of their money.

The women in will-call were really rude & the trip was a little boring but it was very relaxing.

The tour was from Pier 39 out to the Golden Gate and around Alcatraz Island. It was a windy day but the ferry ride was not bumpy. I give this tour 4 stars instead of 5 because the sound system was often timed muffled and poor in quality. To compensate, we stood near a speaker to understand the taped monologue.
