Take this tour!!! - This was a fabulous tour! Our guide was Ama and we cold not have asked for a better experience! He was incredibly knowledgable about all things Hawaii, not just Honolulu. His personal anecdotes and enthusiasm made the tour even more special! We were able to see so much without the hassle of having to plan anything ourselves!

Pearl Harbor and City Tour - For the first time in Hawaii, wanting to see Pearl Harbor, this was the best tour I could have booked. I was there on Dec 7th for the 84th aniversary and the company communicated cleary in advance that there wouldn't be tickets available for the navy boat but the stand by system worked out great. Our tour guide, Simina, was extremely knowledgeble about Hawaiian history and WWII. The city tour was perfect with the palace and king staue and I learned a lot in only 4 hours. Higly recomended for anyone that wants to learn history here on Oahu.

Had fun, learned a lot about the Hawaii, and spent our time with great people - We were picked up in front of our hotel right on time . Our driver Christine was pleasant and knowledgeable. She got us to our destination, Pearl Harbor on time. She gave us great instructions on how to navigate the sign in process. We then went through the city and stopped at the Palace, She explained a lot about the king and queen. It was a small group and everyone was great. We would definitely recommend this tour, and highly recommend Are driver Christine

A private tour is so worth it! - Ama is the most excellent driver & guide! Contacted us the pm before by text to validate pick up along with when he was on his way here. Having a Hawaiian native guide just enriches the tour experience. He was able to share a detailed history of Hawaii along with fascinating antidotes from throughout his life time. The USS Arizona portion is iffy due to national park service maintenance. Our stand by entry time for the boat ride was going to be the next tour after our original departure time from Pearl Harbor. Being a private tour, Ama adjusted so we stayed later at Pearl Harbor to get the boat ride & stop at the USS Arizona memorial, the pinnacle of this tour. Then we just zoomed through the city tour portion a little quicker. So appreciated the personalized service for a perfect tour!

A wonderful tour of Honolulu. - Gordon was our guide. He picked us up on schedule and showed us some unique views of Honolulu and the iconic Diamondhead. We arrived at the Pearl Harbor National Park just before our scheduled trip to the USS Arizona memorial. After Pearl Harbor, we got to see some of the key sites in Honolulu. Gordon was a great conversationalist.

Great tour!!! We were... - Great tour!!! We were very pressed for time due to small window between cruise arriving and flight departing. Melissa picked us up early at the airport and did a great job covering ground in a short period of time. Having everything taken care of for us to visit Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona while our luggage was safe, was a huge blessing and enabled us to focus on the tour without worrying about missing our flight. Would have loved to have had more time at Pearl Harbor; so if you are pressed for time like we were, communicate your highest priority early — Melissa was very flexible and made use of the compressed time we had.

Don't waste your Money! - Disappointing. This tour was a let down. I thought it was going to be more of a private tour of Pearl Harbor, it was not. He showed you where to get standby tickets and where museums were. And that was about it. We had a 1.5 hr wait for boat out to the Arizona but we expected that. It was anniversary of Pearl Harbor. The guide got lost on way to Punch bowl. But once there we did spend time. We did not stop at capital bldg nor the palace. They were not knowledgeable about area history, told us to Google it for answer. The van was old, problems with shutting side door...there was nothing special or extra about this trip. Sad that a family of four spent $1k for a mediocre tour...you could do as well with Uber.
