Visiting Schedule at Guadalupe County Jail: Alphabet Days, Gender Hours, and the 'Two Visits per Week' Rule

Visiting days depend on the inmate's last name. Last names starting with A through L can receive visitors on Fridays and Sundays. M through Z? Saturdays and Mondays. Double-check this before you go - showing up on the wrong day means you won't get in.

Male visitation runs in two blocks: 08:30–10:30 in the morning and 12:00–16:00 in the afternoon. There's a gap from 10:30–12:00 with no visits allowed. Show up during that break and you'll be waiting until noon.

Female visitation hours are 20:00–22:00 - a completely different window than the male schedule. Make sure you're planning for the right time block.

Each inmate can receive two visits per week, with a total cap of 60 minutes. If multiple family members want to visit, you'll need to coordinate - that 60 minutes has to stretch across everyone.

Each visit is capped at 30 minutes. The jail won't combine your weekly allotment into a single 60-minute session - it has to be split across two separate visits.

1. Plan for two separate visits - You can use the full weekly allowance by visiting twice for 30 minutes each (60 minutes total).
2. Don’t try to “combine” time - One 60-minute visit isn’t allowed, even though the weekly total is 60 minutes.
3. Pick days that match the alphabet schedule - Your two visits still have to fall on the correct days for the inmate’s last-name group.

Attorney visits follow different rules. Lawyers can see their clients 24 hours a day unless there's a facility emergency. These visits aren't tied to the alphabetical schedule or standard visiting hours.
