Passport to Pearl Harbor Ticket - Official One-Day Admission & Self-Guided Tour

Inspiring

Reviewed by: Linda Donohoe

We totally enjoyed our tour of Pearl Harbor, the BowFin, the Mo and the Aviation Museum. History of that day became so real and also remembering stories from my in-laws regarding the black out shades. The two young children and a teenager enjoyed the short movie before going over to the Memorial as it gave them more insight to what happened that day. We hope the Aviation Museum will be able to have more planes the next time we visit, as that is quite fascinating going through the choppers. The kids all loved going through the BowFin and the Mo, too!

Very good

Reviewed by: Jessica

I thought the cultural center was very good. Our tour guide was amazing and would recommend having one. The only bad thing was not being able to take pictures during the breath of life show and no air movement. Show was great but very warm. Wish I could have taken pictures.

Passport to Pearl Harbor Ticket - Official One-Day Admission & Self-Guided Tour

One-day passport to Pearl Harbor

Reviewed by: Herb

Veltra was great. They called to make sure we were good with our reservations and faxed a copy of our reservation to Pearl Harbor when we were not able to print the voucher.

Pearl Harbor was a great experience. Pearl Harbor is a must for any American visiting Hawaii, great history lesson. I learned a lot of information I was not aware of.

Important information: the Passport does not include a ticket to the USS Arizona. Show up between 6:30-6:45 a.m. to get your ticket. Theses tickets are free (not included with the passport). The only thing I would say is a must is: USS Arizona, USS Arizona audio tour, and tour the USS Wisconsin.

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

If you're a first timer, this is a must!

Reviewed by: BGC

We had a wonderful time. If you wanted to have plain good time knowing the Polynecian culture this is a must! You will be spending most of your day in a ALL IN ONE package,from activities, education, culture, music, language. I don't know about other people but there is nothing to complain about the Luau and this place, the food was good,the show was great, the evening show was spectacular! For those who expect to get drunk and expect a Las Vegas type of show, please do your self a favor go somewhere else, BUT if you wanted to have a clean entertainment and wholesome environment for you and your family and appreciate custumes,culture, pretty and handsome islanders don't think twice of going here. Several reviewers expect a Las Vegas show and almost bear all, I'm a Islander I find those reviews very insulting to the culture of our people, this is a paradise Island, so please leave your mind set behind before coming here. PCC does the best to preserve the culture and their ancestry.

Despite flight issue, they made sure we got our Leis!

Reviewed by: Robert S

We had a flight number change after United bought some other airline and we arrived with nobody waiting for us for our lei greeting. After a few minutes I realized what happened and we went to our hotel. I was planning on calling them to beg for a refund when I got a call from their office. When I explained what happened, they offered to meet us at our departure gate when we switched islands. I thought this was a great solution and was really appreciative of the extra effort.

As soon as I came off the plane there was the lady with my name and lei in hand! It was a beautiful lei, presenter was a nice lady and walked with me to baggage claim as well. She was very friendly, knowledgeable and a good resource. This was great experience after a long day to be presented with a beautiful and fresh lei! I definitely recommend this offer to anyone going to Hawaii.

Not very authentic except for HA

Reviewed by: Nicky

Terrible food at the luau. Not very authentic in terms of food or staff. Was like a discount Disneyland but with not very convincing landscaping. A total tourist trap in terms of knock off "artisan" items and souvenirs. However the show HA was amazing. If I ever went back, would only go for the show.

A must see

Reviewed by: Phil

Passport includes all four museums at Pearl Harbor, but you must still get there early to pick up your Arizona tour tickets. I got in line at 7am, and had no problems. It was important for us to stop and learn more in detail about the events in Dec 1941, while paying respect to those who lived and fought in WWII. USS Missouri was quite a sight as well as you get to see a lot of the ship on your tour.

Passport to Pearl Harbor Ticket - Official One-Day Admission & Self-Guided Tour

One day Pearl Harbor Pass

Reviewed by: Terri

First, Veltra was very easy to work with and very accommodating. I had to change the date of my excursion 3 times due to conflict involving the homecoming of a Navy vessel my son serves on. Once the date was locked in and we were able to visit the site it was a flawless experience. Ticket processing was easy and the museums were amazing. I will book through Veltra again. During summer just remember to arrive early to get the USS Arizona Memirial tickets since they do run out. It is a lot to accomplish in one day. We started at 7:45 and ended around 4:00pm.

Passport to Pearl Harbor Ticket - Official One-Day Admission & Self-Guided Tour

Very Full & Informative Day

Reviewed by: Anonymous

The passport is a fantastic way to see all of Pearl Harbor! Be prepared for a full-day, and definitely get there as early as you can. I was unable to secure a ticket to the USS Arizona online, so I arrived around 8:15 and got a ticket for 9:30, but the limited tickets to the USS Arizona Memorial were sold out by 11am, so get there early (especially in the summer)!

Since you cannot bring anything with you (other than what fits in your pockets) make sure to have some money for drinks and snacks and don't forget your camera! I'm not a huge WWII history buff, but it was a truly fascinating and moving experience being aboard the gleaming white memorial.

The USS Bowfin and Missouri are amazing if you have never been on a submarine or battleship before, and the Pacific Aviation Museum is excellent as well. This is definitely something I would recommend to any and all, just make sure to eat a good breakfast and wear comfortable shoes!

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

Best day in Hawaii

Reviewed by: Steve Salisbury

Booked an "Ambassador Package" as it seemed to offer a comprehensive itinerary and very glad we did as it took care of all the planning necessary to view the centre in a day.
The prime rib and seafood buffet was as good as expected considering the amount of guests it was catering for. The different cultural villages provided a good mix of information and humour as not to overload visitors brains. Guest involvement in traditional customs such as weaving and drumming was fun.
The "Ha" show was excellent, keeping the audience fully focused and entertained.
I would recommend the travel inclusive package from Waikiki. Smooth bus operation and after a full day, an opportunity to relax after the event. The guide on the outward journey was entertaining and informative.
What really made this a day to remember was our centre guide "Tori". Through all our years travelling the world, she was beyond doubt the most friendly, informative and caring person we have ever encountered in this role.

We were met as we emerged from the restricted area by a beautiful young lady who held a sign wishing our grandson Aloha to Hawaii. She presented him with a gorgeous white and purple lei that smelled so nice. It kept for a week in the fridge. We were all happy with the way it went and she even posed for a picture with him. Keep up the good work. I recommend them 100% Thanks, a happy customer.

We got Lei'd!

Reviewed by: Seasoned Hawaii Traveler

We signed up for a Lei Greeting to surprise the couple who went with us to Hawaii for the first time. We signed up several months in advance and in our busy schedules never remembered to check back with Hawaiia Activities to insure they would be there. When our flight arrived late to our delight a professionally dressed lady was there waiting with our names and 4 leis (2 women's 2 men's). The qualify was beyond any lei I have had before. It was fresh and very well made. She took pictures for us and even escorted us to baggage claim. We toted the leis from Oahu to the Big Island and a week later they were still in pretty good shape. We finally dismantled them (so not to put the plastic string into the ocean) and put only the organic material into the ocean at southpoint as we made our individual wishes. We are so glad we did this for our new Hawaii travelers as it really made great start to another magical Hawaiian trip. We plan to use Hawaii Activities again when we go nex

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

Unique Experience

Reviewed by: Sheryl Janssen

We were greeted by our guide who made sure we were in time for all of the activities. She would have us leave a little early to get to shows that were especially popular so we could get good seats. When it was time for dinner, we opted for the prime dining instead of the luau, so I cannot comment on the luau. After dinner we had a few minutes before going to the show. The show was a fabulous way to end the evening. It was a history of Hawaii that sort of reminded me of the Broadway play, "The Lion King". I would definitely take guests who had never been to the Polynesian Culture Center. I doubt that my husband and I would go again unless we wanted to try the luau. Not because it wasn't enjoyable, but because we have already experienced it. About the staff: they were wonderful! Our guides were so protective over us that it was hard to get away from the group to buy a soda! There is no alcohol served here which suited us fine. If you can't get through an afternoon and evening

Amazing Service

Reviewed by: Donna B

The Leis were so beautiful. We chose the deluxe leis and they could not have been fresher or prettier. This was a surprise for some in our party and the staff member from Hawaii Activities met us right as we came out of the restricted area at the airport. She was so sweet. Our group - despite the surprise - easily identified that this was for them, and the young lady was so very welcoming that this made the perfect start to our vacation. The leis lasted for about a week when kept overnight in the refrigerator. A very happy reminder of our journey.

In addition to providing the leis, the young lady was very helpful with regard to where we went for baggage, and just help getting us oriented. She answered any question any of our group had and walked with us for some time to answer them. She was so warm and so sweet!!!

Thank you so much for making the start to our dream vacation so special.
