A must see for everyone!

Reviewed by: Ellie, 2016/12/08

This tour was amazing and our tour guide was so fun! His name was Ernie. One thing people need to understand is that Pearl Harbor is a memorial to fallen men, not a loud tourist attraction! Be respectful.
We learned so much history. We highly recommend this tour.

All I wanted to see

Reviewed by: Ladytamila, 2016/08/13

My excursion was excellent, from the moment i boarded my flight from Maui. the staff was informative and friendly. I especially enjoyed the the docent on the Missouri, he explained the surrender in a way I could understand without being at all condescending. I was as moved as I hoped I would be. Thank you all for a most memorable experience.

Great day trip!

Reviewed by: Nancy, 2016/01/18

It was great flying from Kapalua airport as we were staying in Ka'anapali. Plus the flight over to Oahu on the small plane was wonderful. We had fantastic aerial views, saw some whales and a beautiful rainbow and our approach in Honolulu took us directly over Diamond Head. We did the whole tour - the Arizona, the Missouri, the Bowfin and the museum, so we felt a little rushed to see it all. Otherwise, it was a wonderful day!

Great experience! Loved Auntie Em as our guide.

Reviewed by: Diane Koers, 2013/09/26

We took the Pearl Harbor tour during our recent stay in Maui. The sign up process was easy and all the employees were extremely helpful. Our tour guide, "Auntie Em or Emily" was fantastic. She told us all kinds of information about what we were seeing and she also relayed several additional stories from her father who was in the military and stationed at Pearl Harbor during the bombings.

The trip was more than about Pearl Harbor. She also took us to downtown Honolulu and Waikiki beach area. It was a long, but inspiring day trip. I highly recommend it.

The tour was excellent. The tour driver did an awesome job. My only negative comment is that we had limited time to visit the land-based building exhibits. All exhibits on the tour were definitely worth the time and money. This is a high-value tour.

Not boring at all!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2011/07/13

Kind of expected this tour to be pretty boring, I have to admit. But I have family in the military so I figured I should pay my respects and go see what this place is all about.

I was pleasantly surprised. The exhibits were informative without being bland, and getting to actually go on a Navy launch, and walk around on an actual ship was pretty cool. The best part for me I think was the film they showed about the attack itself, with real footage and everything...that really made it real to me.

Worth a visit at least once in your life, and not even boring ;)

Great Experience

Reviewed by: Winthrop, Maine, 2010/10/19

We are a family of four, children ages 12 and 16. All of us enjoyed this tour. Ed was our tour guide. We have been on many guided tours before, Ed was by far the best guide we ever had. We were really impressed with his knowledge of Honolulu and the amount of information that he shared with us. The sights through the city, and Waikiki were so breathtaking that we are actually ready to plan our 2nd trip to Hawaii. We also enjoyed how Ed really personalized this tour by sharing his own memories and experiences growing up on the island. This is a long day, yet our guide's enthusiasm, and obvious love for Hawaii remained constant from start to finish. He was very charming, funny, and yet very professional. Not one time did he hint at getting a tip, this has never happened to us before! We have nothing negative to say about this tour, nothing. MUST SEE TOUR, REALLY!

WWII History Buff

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2010/05/15

I read a lot of books about WWII, and I've also watched many documentaries about WWII. It was such a rewarding experience to visit one of the most historically important sites in America. You can see where WWII started for the United States, as well as, where the Japanese surrendered (On the USS Missouri). If you are in Hawaii, visiting Pearl Harbor is a must. Even if you are not a history buff, the historical significance of Pearl Harbor is something that should not be overlooked.

Pearl Harbor

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2009/04/21

The tour of Pearl Harbor is one of a kind! I've always wanted to see the USS Arizona and it felt like a dream come true being out there. We also had the best tour guide! Cousin Ben you rock! He wasn't even scheduled to be our tour guide that day, but in the end he took care of us for over 12 hours. It was an Amazing day!!

Visit the USS Arizona EARLY to get there before all the other tourists! It gets crowded fast!

Maui to Oahu and Pearl Harbor

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2009/02/02

This was my first time to Oahu and I really enjoyed the tour. The Driver was waiting at the airport for us and was very friendly. He explained the sights to us and guided us thru Pearl Harbor and the Missouri. The only negative thing was that we were not booked on a return flight to Maui until 735pm. The tour was over at 5:00 pm Some people on our bus had flights returning to Maui @ 6:30 pm, so these people had to get to the airport for their flight. The driver dropped the people from the tour bus that had the 7:35pm flights at a restaurant so we could eat while he took the 4 people who had 6;30 pm flights back to the airport. There were 12 people left at Ruby Tuesdays to eat or just sit and wait for the driver to return. I would have preferred to stay longer in Waikiki or have done some more sightseeing instead of just sitting there waitng for the bus driver to return from the airport.

We loved it!

Reviewed by: Kelly from NC, 2009/01/19

I was with my mother during this vacation. She and I went to Maui as part of a medical convention. Our tour guide was "Ed" and he was just as great as I had previously read about him on this VERY SITE!! Ed is very knowledgeable about all of Hawaii, not just the areas that you will go to. He spent a great deal of time talking to us about Hawaiian culture as well as the tour route information.

First off we were picked up at our hotel by the tour company and transported to the Maui airport promptly by the timing described in our confirmation email. We then flew to Oahu and met Ed. This process is made easier for the tour guide and you by stickers that you are supposed to wear, it helps the guides find you. We then went to Pearl Harbour as the first part of our trip. Pearl Harbour was very moving as I suspected it would be. It is an experience to be there and unless you are a small child, I am sure all teenager aged upwards would be moved by the sites, the movie, the wall and the actua

Our trip was ruined by rain but not only did this Company give us all they could under the cirmumstances, they refunded the entire purchase price. We didn't get to do alot but we still flew to Oahu and toured the city of honolulu. The Staff was exceptional and we are going to go through this Company for all of our tours next year. They are a class act. Thanks for everything.
