When you arrive at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center, take your time exploring exhibits with artifacts from December 7, 1941. You will learn about the events that changed history and reflect by the waterfront. Don’t forget to check out the bookstore and gift shop for souvenirs to remember your visit.

Before visiting the USS Arizona Memorial, all guests will watch a powerful documentary film about the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. The film provides unique historical context, featuring archival footage and survivor stories, offering insight into the events of that pivotal day.

After watching the documentary film, board a Navy ferry for a 10-minute ride across the harbor to the USS Arizona Memorial. Once there, you will have about 30 minutes to explore the memorial, reflect on the historic events that unfolded, and pay tribute to the service members who lost their lives.

After your Pearl Harbor visit, enjoy a scenic bus tour through historic downtown Honolulu. Pass iconic landmarks like Iolani Palace, the King Kamehameha Statue, and Punchbowl National Cemetery, soaking in the rich history and culture of Hawaii’s capital as you explore its cultural & historic sites.

Pass through Punchbowl National Cemetery, a resting place for U.S. service members, nestled in an extinct volcanic crater. This serene and reflective location offers visitors a chance to pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their country, creating a peaceful atmosphere.

Take in the sight of Iolani Palace, the former royal residence of Hawaii’s monarchy, viewed from the King Kamehameha Statue or a short walk away. This historic palace showcases Hawaii’s unique blend of cultural heritage and Western influences, offering a glimpse into the island’s royal past.

View Kawaiaha’o Church, often called the "Westminster Abbey of the Pacific," from the King Kamehameha Statue. Built from ancient coral blocks, this historic church holds deep significance in Hawaii’s religious and royal history. It stands as a key landmark, reflecting the island’s cultural heritage.

See the King Kamehameha Statue at Ali’iolani Hale, home to the Hawaii State Supreme Court. This iconic statue honors the king who united the Hawaiian Islands, while Ali’iolani Hale stands as a symbol of Hawaii’s political history, blending tradition and governance in the heart of Downtown Honolulu.
