Tour Highlights

Tour Description

For anyone who comes to Hawaii, there is one place that you must see above all others. That place is Pearl Harbor. It is the most visited attraction in Hawaii. For many people who visit Hawaii, it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and you should not waste a minute of it. Unlike larger bus tours, Our Luxury Pearl Harbor and Arizona Memorial Tour will pick you up as part of a very small group. Your chauffeur/tour guide will take you to Pearl Harbor in comfort in a nicer-class vehicle. When you arrive at Pearl Harbor, the driver will take you to the Pearl Harbor National Memorial Visitor Center. He will give you a professional orientation and manage the Arizona Memorial tickets for you. You will then get to see the two Pearl Harbor Visitor Center Museums called “Road to War” and “Attack.” In the “Road to War” Museum, you will learn about the background and reasons for the war with Japan. You will also learn about the reasons and planning for the attack on Pearl Harbor. In the “Attack” museum, you will learn about the execution of the attack and what Hawaii was like on December 7, 1941.

You will also learn about the aftermath and consequences of the attack on Pearl Harbor as well as have a brief overview of Pearl Harbor as it is today. Then you will enter the theater to see the National Park Service Documentary about the attack on Pearl Harbor. This film includes footage that was taken during the attack on Pearl Harbor. Then you will board the US Navy-operated shuttle boat for the ride out to the Arizona Memorial. On the ride out, you will have a great view of Pearl Harbor, including a nice view of the USS Missouri battleship. When on the Arizona Memorial, take some time to reflect on what you have learned about the attack. Look into the water and see the wreck of the battleship USS Arizona and see the oil on the water still leaking from the ship. Have a look at the memorial wall that bears the names of all the sailors and marines who died on the USS Arizona during the Japanese surprise attack. Once you get back to the visitor center, take some time to have a look at the Pearl Harbor Museum Store or have a snack at the Blind Vendor. The tour will conclude with your return to the location of your pickup.

Here Are Some Points Of Interest That You Will See On Your Tour:

Arizona Memorial Boat Ride

Once you leave the theater, you will be directed down a ramp to get to the boat dock. The only way to get to the Arizona Memorial is by boat. Two shuttle boats rotate between the Visitor’s Center and Arizona Memorial every 15 minutes. While the National Park Service manages the Visitor’s Center and Arizona Memorial, the US Navy operates the shuttle boats. Every day, the Navy supplies the boats and sailors that shuttle the visitors to and from the USS Arizona Memorial.

Submarine Memorial Circle

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 battleship 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.

Tree of Life

The tree of life is a sculpture in Pearl Harbor located at the Pearl Harbor Visitor’s Center just outside of the “Road to War exhibit gallery.” The sculpture was designed by Alfred Preis, who also designed the USS Arizona Memorial. The sculpture is meant to be a symbol of renewal and inspire contemplation. While you are at Pearl Harbor, be sure to check out this unique work of art. Don’t forget to also visit the exhibit galleries “Road to War” and “Attack.”

Submarine Museum

Across from the submarine, USS Bowfin, is the Submarine Museum. This museum is dedicated to educating people on the history of submarine warfare throughout history. The museum houses over 1,000 artifacts from submarines that served in the US Navy. Including battle flags and ship’s bells. The museum’s primary focus is to educate guests on the role that US Navy submarines played in WWII. Also housed within the museum are more recent artifacts, such as a disassembled submarine-launched ballistic missile.
