Pearl Harbor Experience in a Day - This was the best way to see the sites of Pearl Harbor. There are 4 various activities across 3 locations and this lets you get all of them. It does limit how much time you can spend at each location but it guarantees that you will get the highlights of all of them.
We had an amazing tour guide (Gar you know you are amazing). He was so knowledgeable about Pearl Harbor and area in general so even as we traveled from location to location we were learning and experiencing. My husband and I are so glad we took a day to do this activity.

Learning about Pearl Harbor, the tragedies and the miracles… - It was a day tour of Pearl Harbor and all that occurred. The guides are well versed in all the sad details of that day. We went on the Missouri and Arizona and saw the wreckage in the ocean that is still there to this day. It makes us grateful for all who serve today and who have gone before us.

Exceeded Our Expectations. - Frank was an excellent ambassador. His narration was interesting and engaging. He is also a gifted bus driver. The streets of Waikiki are treacherous but Frank made it seem easy.
The lunch exceeded my expectations, too.
Pearl Harbor is a place of emotion. It was an honor to walk in the footsteps of the soldiers on ship, submarine and airfield. And it was a privilege to thank them for their service at the memorial site. The respect shown by all involved in the tour was respectful. We appreciated that courtesy.

Excellent Tour - Mo was great and the tour was memorable. If you're going to Pearl Harbor take a day and see it all. Far more convenient getting picked up and dropped off at your hotel.

Worth the full day tour! - There are a lot of options when it comes to Pearl Harbor tours but wanted to see as mush as we could. This tour delivered! Our tour guide, Gar, was very knowledgeable and brought a locals perspective which really added to the experience.
We started at the Pearl Harbor National Memorial with time to look around, go through the USS Bowfin sub and sub museum and take the ferry out to the Arizona memorial. Then it was off to Ford island to see the aviation museum and the Battleship Missouri. Be sure to take the free guided tour on the Missouri.
We learned and saw a ton on this tour. For those that like to take their time and see everything, you may feel a little rushed at the National Memorial and the Missouri. Still, they did a great job fitting all of this into a one-day tour. Thanks Gar!
