An attraction well worth spending half a day visiting, especially if you are visiting San Francisco with kids. The facilities inside the museum are very well done and there are many things to see. There are booths in the museum where service staff explain carefully, which is especially suitable for curious children to ask questions. Booking tickets through KLook is convenient and fast. You don’t need to spend a lot of time queuing at the door. You can get the electronic ticket immediately after buying it and swipe it to enter the venue.

You can have a great experience in a short time! If I may give you a tip, I would go to the line before the boat departs to get a good seat, but since people will get up and block the view in front of you once the boat departs anyway, you can just board the boat at the departure time with plenty of time to spare.

It took a while to confirm the reservation, but they were very friendly and accommodating to my questions and requests. Biking around San Francisco is an unforgettable memory. The road is really pretty. From the store to the Golden Gate Bridge, there aren't too many hills, so it's a good ride. The bike is in good condition too!

We enjoyed the 4-hour walking tour. The pacing of the tour was just right and we did not feel tired at all. We learned some history and info on SF's culture, tasted some Chinese and Italian food, and met people from different parts of the world. Our tour guide, Cynthia, did a pretty good job.

Show your Klook voucher and you will be able to return to Alcatraz Island with fixed boat trips. You can choose your own and you can visit the island freely.

Alcatraz is one of the tourist attractions worth visiting. We originally planned to purchase tickets at 10 a.m., but we had to receive the official email and official ticket time 24 hours before departure. We did not notice that the original tickets were earlier than 09:00. 40. Fortunately, we arrived at the pier at 09:15 and queued up to board the boat smoothly. There are actually more than 10 boats to and from Prison Island every day, but not every boat can be booked on Klook. We stayed on the island for more than three hours that day. Every location on the island has different scenery and introductions, which is very worth visiting.
