Alcatraz and Ghost Hunting Tour
Recommended by 98% of Travellers
2024-2025 SEASON UPDATE: Alcatraz does not currently offer a ghost tour.
They have a “night tour” that is slightly more spooky (note: check what time the sun sets; they sell tickets that are during daylight!).
Looking for a real ghost hunting experience in San Francisco?
We recommend the Paranormal Investigation: San Remo Hotel.
This is the only hands-on ghost hunting experience in San Francisco, inside of one of the city’s most haunted hotels.

Frequently Asked Questions
You’ll explore the haunted San Remo Hotel with exclusive access, enjoy a haunted cocktail, and use modern ghost hunting tools to investigate paranormal activity.
The evening begins with a haunted cocktail at Fior d’Italia, where you’ll take part in a summoning spell and hear chilling stories of the restaurant’s true crimes and haunted history. Then, we’ll head upstairs to the historic San Remo Hotel, a Victorian-era building that once housed those rebuilding the city after the Great Earthquake of 1906.
You’ll explore one of the hotel’s vintage rooms with a range of ghost hunting tools, including an EMF meter, Spirit Box, dowsing rods, laser grid, and EVP recorder. There will be plenty of time to try out the equipment yourself as you wander the narrow corridors, searching for your own paranormal evidence and leaving messages for the spirits that might still roam the halls.
To wrap up, we’ll gather outside for a closing ritual to send you off with positive energy—and perhaps a keepsake from your otherworldly encounter.
Your ticket includes the ghost hunting experience, use of all paranormal investigation tools, and a complimentary haunted cocktail (or alternative drink).
Absolutely! We run tours for bachelorette parties, corporate teams, friends, weddings and more.
