Our driver was entertaining and very attentive to our needs. He kept the tour on track and shared his knowledge and wit which kept us involved in what we were seeing and doing. He was a teacher as well as a tour guide. For first time visitors to Oahu, this tour is a must see. We did not have to hassle with a rental car and directions to major sights of the area. There were plenty of potty breaks. Try and eat something before the tour begins since you can't eat on the bus. Sit on the right hand side of the tour bus to get the best view of the North Shore beaches. To get the most out of your first trip to Oahu, tours are the way to go.

We really enjoyed our tour. Our driver was the absolute best!!! He even took us to the neighborhood where he grew up as a kid. We have been on other tours around the country and will be the first to tell you it's your guide (driver) that makes it great. This by far was one of our best!!! Thanks for a great and informative day!! Aloha!!

We had a great time on this tour. The highlight of this tour was definately pearl harbor. The tour director was very knowlegable and also a very good story teller.
I think this tour is great for first timers to Hawaii, as you do get to see all the main attractions. Would definately recommend this tour to friends.

The tour was excellent. It was a good introduction to Oahu where one could see places that they might want to return on their own. Lani is a wonderful guide. The knowledge that she shared with us as well as her "secret tips" and her sense of humor really made the tour special. We vote to give her a raise!! :)
Just returned to PA today and missing Hawaii already. Aloha

We had an amazing time. "Cousin Dave" was an excellent tour guide. We enjoyed all that was shown and told to us. The Pearl Harbor and City tour was much more than we expected and worth every penny spent. Thank you!

My family & I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. My husband is a HUGE history buff, my son - age 15 even enjoyed it, along with my parents (Around 60 yrs. old) and my husband & myself (late 30's) Therefore, you can see that it was interesting for all ages. It was a very spooky feeling standing on the Arizona Memorial, looking down at the sunken ship, seeing the oil still leaking into the water, and reading all of the names of those who perished that awful, fateful day. We also got to meet & take pictures with two of the survivors from that day. They were inside, sitting near the museum signing autographs. One of them was born in Macomb, Illinois, about 50 miles from our hometown of Rockford, so that was very surprising! We had an awesome guided tour aboard the USS Missouri. Took about 90 minutes, we even got to see inside. Saw the bunks where the sailors slept, the control room, radio room, the table where the declaration was signed to end the war, the "mess hall", stood under the g

I want to comment that the driver, Ben, the guide /bus driver, assigned to our tour was the best. He made our trip enjoyable and informative. Our entire group enjoyed his sense of humor and knowledge of Arizona and Missouri tours. In fact you was our tour guide at the USS Missouri. He knew how to make the maximun use of our time and best place for lunch.
We definitely will come back and will request Ben, if he is still owrking for this company.
Excellent value.

Definitely worth the time and money. Tavita was our tour guide, and he did an excellent job of pointing out everything we needed to know, from getting through lines quickly to evening activities to other areas of interest. He was well-informed of the area, and he was very enteraining - we laughed all day.
I definitely recommend this tour, and Tavita!!

My husband and I were first timers to the islands and our first activity was the tour. Our guide, Ken, was unique and fun. We took another tour with a different service the next day (Volcano tour) and was disappointed. Ken was thorough in everything. We knew which side of the boat to sit on for the best view at Pearl Harbor, we knew the importance of each stop and his enthusiasm was contagious. We took a ton of pictures and I personally learned more about Hawaii and its history on the tour than from reading the provided pamphlets or from the other tour service we used. We were both very impressed and have told everyone at home that we were "professional travelers" for at least one day of our trip. Please extend our appreciation to Ken and we will be recommending your services to anyone that will listen. We will be touring again when we return on our next visit to the islands. Mahalo!

outstanding tour...tour guide was very knowledgeable, excited, and totaly enthused about the many subjects and topics. He made the tour as if Pearl Harbor had just been attacked and the events occurred on the day we visited. The many details and points of interest that was shared with us by the tour guide was graphic and realistic. The lunch was fantastic...actually one of a few wonderful meals of our entire 8-day stay on Oahu! I spoke with the managers of the Home of the Brave tours and complimented the tour guide on his energetic and positive attitude displayed by him the entire day. Wish we had more time on the tour with Home of the Brave....perhaps include the USS Missouri as a visit with this package. AAP

I didn't attend this one myself, but my husband and his friend
went together. We girls didn't want to be gone that long, but
the guys enjoyed it immensely.
It goes without saying - that type tour is very touching and
extremely informative. It's great for history buffs. Reminds us
just how quickly something like that can happen to our country.

We were picked up on schedule, the bus driver was excellent -
very informative - even telling us not to jay walk because
Honolulu accessed a $92 fine for doing so.
We had an excellent narration the entire time we were on the
bus and, it goes without saying, the Memorial is well worth
going to see. Very touching.
He returned us to our point of origin as scheduled.

The tour exceeded our expectations and we would recommend it to all aspiring to become 'Professional Travelers' to the island of Oahu. Our tour guide, Kenn, was an encyclopedia of knowledge. He was entertaining, educational, patient, and very proud of the job he is doing and the island he calls home. The travel arrangements were flawless. We highly recommend this tour to all who are interested in an in-depth guide to most important sites in Oahu. The price is a bargain in comparison of what you will get out of the tour.

The Circle Island Tour was probably the best thing we did while vacationing in Oahu. We knew we were going to have a good time on the Circle Island Tour but we were not expecting to see all the beautiful things we saw and get the information we received. The tour was very entertaining and had many beautiful sights. Our tour guide, Ken, was very educated in the history of Hawaii. I would definately recommend this tour to anyone. If I go back to Hawaii anytime soon I will certainly book another tour.

My husband and I really enjoyed touring the USS Arizona Memorial. The documentary we watched before the tour began was very informative and made us more aware of the events that occurred before 07 Dec 1941.
We also enjoyed the Circle Island Tour. We are both in the Army and arrived on island almost one year ago. This tour allowed us to see some of what Oahu has to offer. Our tour guide Roland had an extensive knowledge of the island's history and we were thoroughly impressed! We would recommend this package to anyone who wants to enjoy the sites of the island while in an air-conditioned, comfortable shuttle while someone else is driving!

The Arizona Memorial Tour was far more then I expected. I think everyone should visit the memorial at least once, and then again any time their patriotism fades. To see first hand the devastation of the ship and realize that there are hundreds of men entombed there is a real eye opener. Our guide was friendly and informative. I would suggest paying the $5 at the memorial for the audio tour, we didn't, and I feel we missed out on some of the reality. The museum is phenomenal and you really need to take your time through it. It's a great tour, but I would like to have spent more time there.

The tour was terrific. I travelled with my 10 year old son, and wanted him to experience as much as possible the history and surroundings of Oahu.Wewere limited on time. The Arizona visit was informative and moving. The island tour was spectacular. The only thing I would have liked to have had more time for was the Dole Pineapple Plantation (maybe 1 full hour so that we could experience the maze, and the grounds). Our tour guide was Kenn, he was the best, and provided us with many laughs and information. I would recommend this tour to everyone I know. thank you so much.

This has been one the best tours I have taken in Hawaii, and definitely the most memorable one. Not only did we see Pearl Harbor, but we were taught so much about the military history Hawaii and being able to go to other points of military interest was a definite twist on the typical Pearl Harbor tour! The guide was a vertiable fountain of knowledge. It is easy enough to go to the Arizona Memorial, but that is just a mere tidbit of the vast expanse of history that is there for learning in the islands. Everything was perfect from pickup to dropoff, and the memories that I have from this experience are priceless.
