What To Expect

Discover the highlights of Pearl Harbor, along with skip-the-line admission to the USS Missouri and USS Arizona Memorial, plus a sightseeing tour of downtown Honolulu during this 7-hour trip. History buffs will especially appreciate this in-depth visit to the site of one of America’s most famous military moments.

Start your trip with pickup from your Waikiki hotel at 6:30am. Your tour operator will provide the exact pickup schedule at the time of reconfirmation. Travel by air-conditioned coach to the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center, the starting point for your visit to the naval base and home to a variety of artifacts documenting the infamous attack that catapulted the United States into WWII.

Head next by Navy launch to the USS Arizona Memorial, where 1,777 of the boat’s crew lost their lives on December 7, 1941. This national monument sits over the submerged remnants of the ship’s mid-section.

Continue your Pearl Harbor visit with a stop at the USS Missouri, where you’ll enjoy an in-depth guided tour of one of the most famous (and longest-serving) American battleships in history. The vessel first came into service in WWII, hosted the Japanese surrender to the Allied Forces and saw its last active duty during the 1990s Desert Storm operation.

Following your exploration of Pearl Harbor, continue back to downtown Honolulu for a chance to investigate some of the city’s top sights. Among the stops on your Honolulu tour are Kawaiahao Church, the statue of King Kamehameaha, the Hawaii State Archives and State Public Library, the Hawaiian Mission Houses Historic Site and Archives (originally known as Mission Houses Museum) and Honolulu Hale.

Finish your day with a visit to the only royal palace found on American soil at the Iolani Palace and with a visit to the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (Punchbowl Cemetery), followed by a drop-off back at your Waikiki hotel.

Traveller Tips

The audio tour for the USS Arizona is very well done (narrated by Jamie Lee Curtis) and is worth getting as an extra (is not included in the basic tour).
There is a lot of walking and the bus can not take you to the gate, so you have even more walking.
Highly recommend going to Pearly Harbor but if you can get yourself to the venue, just buy the tours.

Pearl Harbor documentary, timeline of events. USS Missouri has multiple decks to visit. Lunch was good but took a little bit of time. Could have used a little more time at each stop and less time on downtown tour. Tour driver was excellent

Attack Museum: A Narration That Pulls At the Heart Strings
MelodyL_C, Dec 2022
This was a fantastic tour, made even better by our guide, Ernie. He was informative, professional, and witty. I learned so much during the tour but I think the most memorable part was watching the movie in the Attack Museum. The narration coupled with the visual plan of the attack helped me to connect dots that I hadn’t previously.

They didn’t show us the movie like they were supposed to. Whole thwarted sat there for 20 minutes with a blank screen.
Response from Host, Oct 2022
We are sorry to hear that the documentary film wasn't shown. Thank you for your feedback. Mahalo!
We learned, laughed, and made friends!
Phillip_S, Oct 2022
Our guide, Ernie, was the best part of the day. He shared wonderful stories and insights into the culture and history of the islands. The Arizona memorial speaks for itself and is most moving. The Missouri is amazing. I recommend that you take the guided free tour on the ship. Ernie's comments within the city were particularly interesting. The only negative regarding the trip was the waiting in line for two hours before entering the launch to the Arizona.
Soak it all in

We were told it was shut down, which it was but then we found out later that the gates opened back up when we were still on the bus and yet, we still didn’t go. Major disappointment.
