Has anyone ever visited Alcatraz Prison since it closed in 1963.

I was there in the early/mid 70s. Was interesting, but had a kind of creepy/cold atmosphere(then again it IS a prison). It's been a very long time but I believe we saw Al Capone's cell. I was in SF again in early 2000s but didn't plan ahead to go so tours were booked. TIS

Yes, I highly recommend it. Allow at least 3 hours, and you need to rent the headphones. One of the times I went, they had an former inmate (Whitey Thompson) signing copies of his book.

I was in SF around 2004 and I wanted to tour but my aunt said I was to young, but I most certainly plan on going back to visit.
