Day Trip to Pearl Harbor from Kauai

It was a great tour packed with info. Instructions were very clear and we knew what to do from start to finish. We had a disabled member in our party and Michael did whatever he could to make our trip memorable and easy

My husband and I were so excited to see Pearl Harbor. The flight from Lihue to Oahu was perfect! We boarded the tour bus earlier than the time our email said (we were told between 9:15 and 9:30 a.m. but she arrived at... more 8:40 a.m. This was not a problem for us because we were there, but there was a couple who was not there when she left. She had to meet up with them in downtown Honolulu. She took us on a City Tour (which we were not expecting). The first part of the tour was great, but then, she dropped us off at Waikiki Beach for shopping and hanging out at the beach for 2 HOURS! We did not want to go to the beach, nor did the other people on the tour bus. She did not ask us; she just took us there and dropped us off. Because we were at the beach for that long, we were shorted our time at Pearl Harbor - especially the USS Missouri. We got there and she told us that we should get our lunch from the food truck right away because they closed at 2 p.m. - in was 12:50 p.m. when we arrived there. So, we got and ate our lunch which took about 20 minutes. We had to be back on the tour bus by 2 p.m. to head over the the USS Arizona as we had 2:30 p.m. tickets for that. We did not want to miss any more, so of course, we were on time. We could not tour the entire USS Missouri ship because we did not have enough time. And, over by the USS Arizona (not the boat ride and view of the actual memorial, but the other things to read and the movie - we did not have time to do. We had to be back on the bus by 4 p.m. This was supposed to be a day for Pearl Harbor, but it did not feel like that. We were so very disappointed that we could not view the entire ship and we do not feel that we got the full experience. Our tour bus driver was very nice but she should not have dropped us off at the beach/shopping for that long and take away the time we had for what we paid for and were hoping to see.

We were told to be at the airport by 6 am. Flight left. 2 hours later. No representative ever met us at the airport in Lihue or Oahu. Did not receive any instructions as to where we had to go once we landed in Honolulu. ... moreOur flight back to Lihue was supposed to arrive at 7 pm. We were put on a later flight so didn't arrive in Lihue till 9:30 pm. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant. The above made for a longer day than expected. Felt we should have been told this information .

My son is an enormous military buff. We were spending the holidays in Kauai and decided to make a day trip to Pearl Harbor. So worth it. Very enjoyable and educational. Really can’t say enough.

Our guide Gensing was outstanding! He thoroughly loves his job and was so knowledgeable! He made the trip do enjoyable. We spent too much time dropping other groups off, but it was memorable day!

Had a fantastic time. Cuzin Kimo was an outstanding host and tour guide. Totally recommend it, couldn't ask for a better day. Thanks again.
