Great tour, our guide, Finny, was amazing! - This was an absolutely amazing experience! Finny was our guide, and he was beyond knowledgeable, helpful and kind! We r ally enjoyed his expertise and extra bits of info he shared on the bus ride to and from Pearl Harbor. The museum and memorial were exceptional. We watched as the national anthem played and they raised the American flag for the day… brought me to tears. The entire exhibit is well done and honors those who so bravely fought for our country. A definite must see if you go to Honolulu!

Excellent Tour - We had a lovely time and loved our KTOUR guide. The Memorial site and museum were just awesome. Randy Garcia, our KTOUR driver/guide was full of history information and spoke of the history to and from Pearl Harbor. Randy was very personable and friendly and I encourage you to keep this wonderful man on Tours.

A visit to the Pearl Harbor Memorial was very heart-rending experience. - Visiting historic Pearl Harbor is a must-do while on Oahu. Our day tour offered the most complete experience, taking us to see all of the museums and memorials of Pearl Harbor: the USS Arizona Memorial, USS Bowfin Submarine and Museum, USS Battleship Missouri Memorial, and the USS Oklahoma Memorial Pacific Aviation Museum. While on the grounds of this multi faceted Pearl Harbor Memorial, we purchased an author hand-signed copy of "From Fishponds to Warships: Pearl Harbor, a Complete Illustrated History."

Tour is short but very impactful. - Pickup was on time, the driver, Charlie was funny and shared some local info. on the way to Pearl Harbour. He pointed us in the direction of the Arizona tour but it would have been great if we had been advised to go watch the film first as our tour was at 10am, we thought we would have time after the memorial visit but we were too late back and the next show was 11:15 & Charlie was very emphatic about pickup time at 11:45 so we missed the film completely, I really wanted to see it so it was a shame, maybe to have the pick up at 12 noon so people had enough time to see the film, look at all the plaques & pay their respects to the people who lost their lives and also have time to browse the gift shop for souvenirs. The time is a little too short to do the whole experience justice and let people enjoy it at a comfortable pace and not feel rushed. It is a stunning memorial and I was very moved by the reverence displayed by the lady who prepped us for the boat trip and the sailor on the boat. Both spoke with heartfelt respect for their fallen comrades which was very impactful.

Pearl Harbor Tour - The tour was able to pick me up right at my hotel and take us to and from Pearl Harbor. I appreciated that the tour did the work of booking tickets for us and gave us plenty of time to explore the grounds. The tour guide was fine, but he was reading off a script the entire time we were driving back and forth. I would probably have preferred he be less scripted and watch the road a bit more. Overall, a really good experience and going with the tour made it easy from a planning perspective.
