Tour Highlights

Tour Description

Visit the most important historical attraction in Hawaii, Pearl Harbor National Monument. Rather than a bus tour with 50-60 people, this is a small group of only eleven people in a comfortable, new model van that takes you directly to Pearl Harbor. You do not need to go early in the morning (5:30 am) and wait in line behind thousands of other people to see if you can get an Arizona Memorial Ticket. We have reserved Arizona Memorial tickets for our clients in advance which are included for you in this tour (please read our disclaimer about the USS Arizona Memorial ticket). You do not need to worry about an Arizona Memorial ticket. The Pearl Harbor Visitor’s Center, Arizona Memorial, Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum, and a short Honolulu city tour is a 7 ~ 7 hours tour including transfers. This Pearl Harbor Tour operates only from Waikiki beach hotels. Those staying on any other part of the Island will need to come to the Waikiki Beach area for pick up.

This Pearl Harbor Tour is great for those interested in WWII history and especially aviation history. This tour takes you to the heart of Hawaii, where Pearl Harbor is located. The Arizona Memorial is the most visited tourist destination in Hawaii. The USS Arizona Memorial Monument is the resting place for 1,177 American Sailors and Marines. This tour includes the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum, America’s only aerial battlefield. Visit Hangars that were present during the attack on December 7, 1941. View the bullet holes made by attacking Japanese aircraft on that day. Take in many historic aircraft from WWII right up to today, including iconic aircraft such as the Japanese A6M2 Zero fighter, the B-17 Flying Fortress bomber, the F-14 Tomcat fighter, the SBD Dauntless dive bomber, and many more. On the way back to Waikiki, you will be taken on a short drive-through tour of Downtown Honolulu. You get to see the famous golden statue of Hawaii’s legendary monarch, King Kamehameha the Great. View the Famous Iolani Palace, the only Royal Palace on American soil. See Washington Place, the historic home of Hawaii’s Governors. View the unique architecture of the Hawaii State Capitol building. We will also take you on a drive-through of Punchbowl National Memorial Cemetery, considered the “Arlington of the Pacific”, the final resting place of many U.S. service members from WWI to the present.

Reviews

Pick up was right on time in a luxurious van and our driver Tom was great, very professional. Spent the whole day exploring Pearl Harbor and it was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend the full day tour so you can experience everything Pearl Harbor has to offer.

S. Moore

It got off to a rough start. Pickup was late because of traffic but the driver got us to Pearl Harbor on time. He was very courteous and made sure we were ok before he let us go on our way. The city tour was fun.

J. Fuentes

We had an awesome time at Pearl Harbor. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and polite. We will definitely use this service again on our next trip to Hawaii.

Here are some points of Interest that you will see on your tour:

Arizona Memorial

When you arrive at the Arizona Memorial, walk to the ramp from the boat dock and enter the Arizona Memorial. There is a limited time on the Memorial, and people will move from the entrance to the far end of the Memorial. On the way to the far side, take some time to look at the USS Missouri, which is docked near the Arizona Memorial. Some portions of the ship are still visible above water. These are parts of the superstructure, the remains of the number 2 turret, and the number 3 turret barbette. You may notice an orange buoy to either side of the Memorial; these denote the bow and stern of the ship.

Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz

Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz was the Commander in Chief of the Pacific Fleet during WWII. He succeeded Admiral Husband E. Kimmel after the attack on Pearl Harbor. With Admiral Nimitz in command, the US Navy ultimately gained victory over the Imperial Japanese Navy in the Pacific War. Fleet Admiral Nimitz helped to devise the Island hopping campaign against the Japanese. This campaign took the fleet through Japanese-held territory, attacking and capturing only the most strategically important one and bypassing the rest.

Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum

The Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum is located on Ford Island and is accessible by a special shuttle. The Pearl Harbor Aviation museum comprises three buildings, Hangar 37, Hangar 79, and Building S84. The Aviation Museum is unique in that it is the only aviation museum that is also an aerial battlefield. All three buildings were present on December 7, 1941, and the hangars still show damage from the Japanese attack. Their collection consists of 43 aircraft from WWII up to today. Their collection includes iconic aircraft such as the F4F Wildcat, A6M2 Zero, F-4 Phantom II, and F-14 Tomcat.

Ford Island Control Tower

One of the most famous landmarks on Ford Island is the control tower. Formally called Administrative building S84. The building was to serve as the administrative center of the Ford Island airstrip, housing administrative facilities, meteorological facilities, and serve as an air traffic control tower. By the time of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the building was not yet complete. However, the building was active as an air traffic control tower during the battle and was attacked by Japanese aircraft. Today, the tower was leased from the US Navy by the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum, and restoration work is being done on the building.
