Arizona Memorial Tour

Arlyne_G, Apr 2026
The Pearl Harbor National Memorial is truly a must-see when visiting Oahu. It was a deeply humbling and meaningful experience for me, one that I will always remember.

USS Arizona Memorial and Honolulu City Tour

Kenneth_S, Apr 2026
On April 6, 2026 I took the USS Arizona Memorial and Downtown Honolulu Tour. The USS Arizona Memorial was a sobering, thoughtful, humbling experience. To be at the place where so many of our sailors and marines lost their lives in defense of our country and be at a place where an event that was so important to our nation and the world was incredibly special. I also visited a couple of the museums that dealt with the PH attack. Exhibitions were amazing and well done. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to visit the Submarine or Aviation Museums or the USS Missouri, though I’ve heard they were fantastic. The Honolulu city tour was also very interesting and informative. Saw The Queen’s Palace (though wasn’t able to go inside), drove through The National Cemetery in The Punch Bowl, saw the Indian Banyan trees (incredible!). Our Tour Guide,Will, was AMAZING! He was caring and kept up with everyone in the tour group! He was friendly, helpful and polite. He was very knowledgeable and told the stories about the PH attacks and other details about Honolulu with enthusiasm and energy that held my attention. I knew quite a bit about the PH attack, but he told many little known details I didn’t know. Will was a fantastic Guide and I was fortunate to have him as my Guide. He’s A Keeper!!!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you so much for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed review of your April 6 experience with our USS Arizona Memorial and Downtown Honolulu Tour. We’re truly glad the visit to Pearl Harbor was as meaningful and moving as it should be. It’s a place that carries deep significance, and it’s important to us that our guests are able to experience it in a respectful and memorable way. It’s also great to hear that you enjoyed the city portion of the tour, from the historic sites to the natural beauty around Honolulu. There’s so much to take in, and we’re happy you found it both interesting and informative. Most of all, we appreciate your kind words about Will. He takes great pride in what he does, and your recognition of his knowledge, energy, and care for the group truly means a lot. We’ll be sure to pass this along to him—he’ll be thrilled to hear it. We’d love to welcome you back in the future, especially so you can experience the USS Missouri, Submarine, and Aviation Museums next time! Warm regards,

Will very helpful driver!

John_W, Mar 2026
Will our tour guide was very knowledgeable about Pearl Harbor. Expected more history on city and a longer tour. It was rush hour so I know it would have been difficult.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Aloha! 🌺 Mahalo for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that Will provided great knowledge about Pearl Harbor 🤙 We understand your wish for more city history and a longer tour, and we appreciate your understanding regarding traffic and timing challenges. Your comments are valuable and will help us improve the overall experience for future guests. We hope to welcome you back to Hawaiʻi for an even more in-depth and enjoyable adventure soon! 🌈

10/10 would recommend!

Cloudy, muddy water for the USS Arizona but tour was great otherwise. Cuzin Miah was an awesome tour guide! Informational, engaging, and connected with the tour making us feel like family! 10/10 would recommend

Not worth it. Take an Uber instead.

Dinesh_M, Dec 2025
Not worth it. All they do is drive you to Pearl Harbor and you're on your own from 7:00am to 10:30am. The tour guide is not with you. And you have to sign up at a kiosk for standby tickets for USS Arizona. Tickets are not guaranteed. No tickets to anything are included. They engage in deceptive marketing as the description says: "Entry tickets to all the attractions on your tour are included" and "Entry tickets to the attractions on your tour will be provided by your guide on the day of your tour" and "Admission Included" for USS Arizona. The guide does not give you any tickets, and nowhere does it say that you will be on standby for USS Arizona. On the way back, there is one stop at King Kamehameha Statue and you'll pass by some other sites, but it was quick and not really worth it. This is not much more than a very expensive Uber ride to Pearl Harbor. I recommend taking an Uber instead and saving your money.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Aloha, Mahalo nui loa for your feedback. Due to the holiday season, Pearl Harbor can be extra busy and timing for entry can be affected. We do reserve USS Arizona tickets in advance, but sometimes waits are unavoidable. We hope you’ll give us another chance next time to show you a smoother, more enjoyable experience. 🌺

Early start was great

Kim_G, Jun 2025
This tour ran very smoothly. Couldn't quite work out reason for 6.10am pick up but all became clear when we got to Pearl Harbour Memorial. Tickets to theatre and boat experience were booked early which beat the crowds and the heat, so good. The rest of the tour of Honolulu highlights was also good with our guide Summer being very knowledgeable. In all, would recommend as Pearl Harbour experience a must to fully understand. Maybe a short stop at Punchbowl lookout and/or cemetery would have been a good inclusion.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you, Kim! We're thrilled you had such a memorable experience and enjoyed Summer's guidance. Hearing that Pearl Harbor was a highlight means a lot. We look forward to welcoming you on more tours in the future!

Love Jonny Aloha

Theresa_M, Jan 2024
The Pearl Harbox experience was amazing. I was able to share this educational time in history with my family for their first visit to Hawaii. Our tour guide Jonny Aloha was awesome. It was wonderful to hear all about the city and see the local sites around the island. Highly recommend this tour, and Jonny Aloha!

Screwed up our entire day!

Debra_C, Sep 2023
I booked a Complete Pearl Harbor experience and was not able to enjoy it because Viator did not have our reservation that we fully paid for. I was charged $366.42 on my credit card prior and was only able to see the Pearl Harbor Memorial. We were dropped off and left at the memorial until 11AM, unable to enter all the other exhibits because they didn’t have our admission passes. We were supposed to spend our anniversary on the 10 hour tour but instead, spent at least 1.5 hours on the phone with them just to be told that they were unable to accommodate our reservations. It’s just best to book your admissions individually for each exhibit at Pearl Harbor and not go through Viator. Such a disappointment.

Pearl harbor visit and city tour

Myeshia_M, Aug 2023
My guide was extremely knowledgeable would definitely book again. Gave me new insight on pearl harbor facts and honolulu.

Pearl Harbor tour was wonderful.

Sharleen_W, Jan 2023
I was overwhelmed at the whole experience. I appreciated the knowledge our driver shared with us. Jorge even told us a story about a father/daughter on the USS Utah seeing we were from Utah. It was a wonderful experience.

Hurry up and wait

Jonne_B, Apr 2022
Did not appreciate that I purchased tour and the night prior received a message that I would have to go standby to get on the Arizona memorial. Waited over an hour in the standby line and was lucky enough to get tickets from a passerby. I had just enough time to watch w quick movie and get back to the bus by 2pm. However, sat on the bus for 45 minutes waiting for others after being told when we arrived that they would be left behind if not on time. Had we known we would have stayed longer in the park. I would not recommend this tour as you have to get your own tickets anyway.

Disappointing
