Great Tour! Our tour guide/bus driver was very informative. Was a wealth of knowledge about the memorial and the city.
Sorry we did not book more tours through Hawaii Activities. Would recommend them to anyone.

Makani Kai has one of the best reputations for safety in the islands. Knowing that, the experience of flying over the island of Oahu was quite enjoyable and relaxing. The pilot and ground crew are efficient and courteous. Easy to find if you drive yourself with available free parking!

My group 8 people took on the ride and 8 came back stating this was by far the best thing they had experienced and all 8 said they would go back again and Highly suggest anyone wanting to see from the sky down what is happening need to take the 60 minute ride as our group did. Thanks for a wonderful time members of the Vacation Club.

This was our visit to Hawaii. We had a terrific time on this tour. Our guide was fun and informative. We got to see almost the entire Island. It was terrific. Although we wish we had more time at the Dole Plantation. I highly recommend this tour if you only have a few days in Oahu. it is well worth the money.

This was our first visit to Hawaii and to Pearl Harbor. This was a dream come true as our father's were WWII and Korean War veterans. Duke, our guide, was terrific. Very informative. We would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to visit Pearl Harbor.You won't be disappointed.

Nice tour - interesting tidbits along the way. I think the Explorer's Tour is worth the extra. You get to venture where the ropes are. You do some bending and ducking as you enter the various door entry areas on the ship. I think you get more out of the ship tour with the guide than just visiting without a tour guide.
ps - I selected good for families but that is also a judgment call depending on how mindful the children are in dealing with tight quarters and time-constraints to visit various areas of the ship.

The Pearl Harbor tour was well done. Our tour guide, who was also our bus driver, did a great job explaining how the tour would be conducted, getting our large group lined up in order, and seeing that we all gained entrance to the tour together. The one thing that I did not care for was the tour guide's advice about who to vote for in the American presidential election. It reduced his tip by 50%.

I was impressed by the audio visuals used and the visuals used for USS Arizona tour and the Home of Brave portion of the tour.
The tour guide gave us some highlights of the USS Arizona attack as we waited in line for the Memorial to open.
Everything worked well: the extra tidbits, pictures in the van/shuttle, audio visuals; and the stops we made were interesting that also related with the audio visuals.
At the end of the tour, we stopped at a little museum and we were presented with a free post card that showed the areas that we had visited.
Oh - the meal on base that was all you can eat (not included in the price) but very good and less than $10. Great tour - it was a great way to start the vacation off in spite of the rain we experienced in the morning as we waited for the Memorial to open. I now have a $2 poncho that I purchased outside the Memorial and never had to use for the 12 days of my Hawaii stay. It's more of a conversation piece now :)

The explorer's tour is worth the extra money. Instead of just wandering around on a few decks you get a personally guided tour of about 4 secluded decks including one of the BIG 16 inch gun turrets. Very interesting to see how a battleship works.

Our guide was coughing into the mike as he talked and we thought if he was sick, he should have stayed home. He could have at least removed the mike when he was coughing.

Going to Pearl Harbor was an amazing experience. It was very touching. Taking a bus tour to Pearl Harbor eliminates the need for driving in traffic through Honolulu as well as dealing with parking. The tour gave us enough time to roam around and also took us on a trip through Honolulu showing some sights. This is one activity that is definitely better suited as a bus tour.

Please go and pay your respects! Tour bus picks you up and tells you how everything goes. We got right in when on some days you must wait an 1 or so. There's a short film before you are boated over to the memorial. It's awe inspiring.
Our drive was a cocky know it all rude person. Well, at least he thought he knew it all. He really sounded uneducated and told us things we did not need to hear. He also took about 12 cig breaks.
Overall great price and pretty good service.

We had Olafe as our tour guide. He is fantastic. I am a history buff and yet I learned more about the Dec 7th attack in that one trip then I have learned in all of my life.
He really really knows his stuff. Thank you to him.
I have only one complaint, the instructions to get to the hotel to meet the tour were very poor.
I think that they would be fine if a person knew the area, but we had never even been on that island. However once again Olafe was great. He waited for us and we made it. I am 61 years old and I have wanted to see that memorial for at least 50 years. I would have been heart broken if I had missed it.
So than you again Olafe
