Alcatraz Prison, A Museum
From 1934 to 1963, Alcatraz was America’s most notorious maximum-security prison, housing such infamous criminals as Al Capone, Mickey Cohen and George “Machine Gun” Kelly. Today, it’s a captivating — albeit a little spooky — destination just off the coast of the peninsula.
A three-story cellhouse
Hop on a cruise ship and tour the island and facilities for a history lesson on what was once the most expensive prison to operate in the United States. You’ll be thrilled by stories of prisoners’ escapes (some fatal), and with the audio tour, you can hear firsthand accounts from inmates and officers. If you’re not afraid of the dark, try the night tour for the ultimate cellhouse experience.
