点评:I’m sure this has been said by many, but it’s true: book your Alcatraz tour as early as possible to get the best selection of day, night, or VIP/Behind the Scenes tours.
Our ferry ride took about 15 minutes, and everyone in our group was lined up and ready to board about 20 minutes before our scheduled departure. The wind on the bay is chilly, so definitely dress in layers.
We really enjoyed the audio tour and can see why it has won awards. The facility has been preserved in incredible detail, and the tour gives you a very good sense of what life was like for the people incarcerated there. It was easily one of the highlights of the visit.
The gift shop also has some unique Alcatraz souvenirs, although you can probably find less expensive versions of some items in Chinatown.
We booked the last day tour at 3:50 p.m. on a Wednesday afternoon, which worked out really well for us. Overall, Alcatraz is absolutely worth visiting, and I’d recommend booking directly and booking early so you have your choice of tour and time.
翻译:我相信很多人都说过同样的话,但确实如此:为了能選到最合适的日间、夜间或VIP/幕后参观行程,一定要尽早预订阿尔卡特拉斯岛的游览票。
我们乘坐渡轮大约15分钟便抵达,而在预定出发时间前20分钟左右,我们一行人就已排好队准备登船了。海湾上的风相当冷,所以一定要穿多层衣物保暖。
我们非常喜欢这种语音导览服务,也明白它为何能屡获大奖。整个设施保存得极为完好,细节之处都处理得恰到好处。这次参观能让你很好地了解当年被关押在那里的人们的生活状况。这绝对是我们此行的亮点之一。
纪念品商店里也有一些独具特色的阿尔卡特拉斯纪念品,不过在唐人街或许能买到价格更便宜的同类商品。
我们预订了周三下午3点50分的最后一场导览,时间安排对我们来说再合适不过了。总的来说,阿尔卡特拉斯绝对值得一游。我建议直接预订,并且尽早预订,这样就能自由选择旅游路线和时间了。
