We toured the Missouri with our Children. The boys loved the guns and it was very interesting to see how they live. I would recommend this tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and made it interesting and not just something that she was there to do. She realy believed in the cause.

Thank you for allowing us to join in on the celebration at Pearl Habor on Dec. 7. This was a special day for myself and my family.
I enjoyed the trip but would have liked more time to see the museum exhibits. The meal was ok but the eating place was way too crowded.
Brandon was a great guide. He answered qustions and kept us going all day.

My family enjoyed the information that was shared by Lani, our tour guide. We enjoyed seeing the "off the beaten path" locations that we went to. It was a great overview. I'd recommend it as a tour to do early on in your visit so you can go back to some of the places if you want to, some of the stops were very short.

We LOVED our tour and our tour guide Hana! He was very informative and hilarious!! If you go to Oahu n just stay in Waikiki, you're missing out! We are SUPER glad we took this tour. The Island is beautiful and you cant see that from Waikiki. Ive read a review where someone complained the lunch spot on this tour was pricey? No way, its very reasonable and they have a huge variety of food you can eat with various prices. It was a very nice place to eat. We are a young couple (in our 20's) and this was our honeymoon. This tour was the highlight of our trip! THANK YOU HANA!

It was a good trip, the Arizona Memorial was awe-inspiring, the USS Missouri tour informed me of things I didn't. Also since it was the anniversary of the signing of the Peace Treaty, they were sprucing it up. A little disappointed couldn't get out in Punchbowl or downtown, but time constraints may have played a part in that.
Overall it was excellent, our tour guide was well informed and easy to understand.

Besides traveling with family, I had the neighbor next door with us. Her husband was a Pearl Habor survivor so this day was very special to her. To me, it was a once in a life time experience to be at Pearl Habor on Dec. 7 and to celebrate with such a special ceremony.
The tour itself was ok. I was disappointed we did not get to spend more time in the museums and to hear more about the events that happened that day.
The lunch stop was too crowded. I was not able to set with my family during the meal.

What a wonderful experience to be at Pearl Habor on Dec. 7 and to be able to paricipate in the dedication. To me, it was a once in a life time experience.
The food at our lunch stop was ok. The room they placed us in to eat was not acceptable. It was too crowded and I was not able to be any where near my family when we ate.
We did not have lots of time to visit the museums.

We had wished for more time to tour the various places (especially the Arizona and Missouri). Though she had kept us on time during the day, we felt a little shorted at these attractions. The city tour was nice as was punchbowl, but time could have been compressed here to afford more time at the Arizona or Missouri. We never made it to the US Army museum as indicated in the itinerary. We did end the day earlier than we had anticipated. Our tour guide was excellent and she knew a lot of information that was helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed her comments and attitude. I understand that it is often hard to predict if people will be on time or not and therefore you need to plan accordingly, however as we were all on time most of the day, I think things could have been adjusted.

Trip was enjoyable. Tour guide (Happy Pappy) was the best. He gave a lot of information out and answered any of your questions. He made the trip.
Would recommend this trip. However I would recommend to take this trip early in your stay, should you like to go out on your own and see some of the sights that you were not able to spend much time at.

This was the only thing on the trip that was a concern. We was not given enough time to listen to the audio at Pearl which I felt would have enhanced the experience. Wish we have been given more time there and one less stop along the road so the driver could smoke!!
Also, the Dole Plantation was nothing. We only had time to look or buy something, not what I came for, and no time to take the tour of the plantation. If I have not asked one of the workers who was planting the pineapples some questions I would not have learned anything about the pineapple crops.
I did thoroughly enjoy the driver. He was very knowledgeable and made the drive fun. The sharing of music from a family tape added a personal touch.

Booked directly with Roberts Hawaii prior to coming to Hawaii, the tour guide was great, he told us what not to take to much time on and how everything worked. We only had one problem when we went to the second ship USS missouri, we had a tour guide from the ship and people that were NOT a part of the tour started to join our group which caused our group to become huge by the end and we only had 10 minutes to either eat or see anything else they had, so we missed out on the simulator which the girls really wanted to partake in. Next time I would suggest that you have your own specific tour guide, with colored stickers for the people that are with that tour so that the tour guide can distinguish who paid for this private tour and who did not, as we should not be waiting on people that decided to go at it by themselves and then join a tour which they did not pay for. Other than that, the girls 15 & 17 learned alot and were quite impressed with the whole tour itself. I would suggest th

We took the "Home Of The Brave" tour and it is a day that will live in infamy for us. If you are a history buff, you will think you have died and gone to heaven. We spent our time with Brandon (the world's greatest and most informed tour guide) as he took us through the events leading up to and and including the attack on Pearl Harbor and ending at Punchbowl National Cemetery. If you do no other tour when you are on Oahu, this is the one to do. Brandon provided unique insight into the historical events leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor. Because of his enthusiasm, we have since started to do our own research into the whole history that is available and not just the bits and pieces that we have seen through movies.This is just a bit if the info that we have found.

This is an exceptional tour and the best bang for your buck-so to speak. Thank you Brandon and Hawaii Activities.

Visiting Pearl Harbor is a very solemn experience embedded in history and displayed for future generations in an eloquent, respectful, and informative manner.
I would definitely recommend this tour to others with the suggestion that those going do so in the morning and as there usually is quite a line to get in. However, the tour is well worth it. You can actually imagine what it would have been like to experience the fateful event. The dignified proceedings allow one to truly reflect upon the historic happenings of Dec. 7th, 1941, without an atmosphere of hopelessness.

The navy treats the arizona memorial as a cemetary, and most of the guests do the same. Some people feel the need to ruin it for everyone else by talking loudly, but besides them, there is a definate feeling of patriotism onboard the memorial. The city tour was fact filled and interesting.
