prison tours
Penitentiary public walkthroughs
Prison tours are organized visits allowing the public to walk through correctional facilities, typically decommissioned ones like Alcatraz or Eastern State Penitentiary.
Some active prisons also offer tours for educational purposes or to deter at-risk youth.
The term sometimes describes informal exposure to incarceration realities: His lawyer gave him a prison tour of what awaited if he didn't take the plea deal.
