Hi everyone,

I'm going to visit my pen pal at San Quentin in a few days and I'm now wondering a few things. I've read the visitation rules but cell phones are never mentioned. Am I allowed to get there with my phone?

Also I'm wondering how to get to San Quentin. I'll be staying at San Rafael, does anyone know if there is a bus to the prison?

Thank you!

Unless you are driving taxi is the quickest way and get there 1 hour before your visit time as they start to process 30 mins before your

visiting time

Thank you Blondgal, great that they have lockers because I was wondering how to go there without my phone. I didn't think about calling a taxi but it might be a good option.

Thank you Stefanie, first time for me but I'm sure I will have a good time.

You cannot take phones in you can only take in 1 dollar bills in a clear purse to buy food if u call a taxi it takes about 10 minuets to the prison 

And will cost around 13 dollars they have lockers where u can out it bag in cost 50 cents

Hi Cla,

look here: https://www.rome2rio.com/map/San-Rafael/San-Quentin-State-Prison

And no, as far as I know cell phones (and other electronic devices) are strictly prohibited in the visiting room
