Salute to Pearl Harbor Including USS Arizona

1.Salute to Pearl Harbor Including USS Arizona

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 7,433 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $59Our pick

Spend about five hours traveling from Waikiki to Pearl Harbor with an E Noa guide such as Nani, Momi, or Big Jon. You’ll see the visitor center, wartime exhibits, attack footage, and, if available, take the boat to the USS Arizona Memorial. Pickup and drop-off are included.

“Pick up was right on time. RJ was a great guide. He provided lots of information about Pearl Harbor and the Arizona on the way to the site. He was enthusiastic, very organized, and his suggestions and directions were very clear. He had even more stories to tell on the way back. Once we arrived, we could go the areas that interested us the most. Having guaranteed tickets for the Arizona was a plus. My only suggestion is to lower the volume of the sound system.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4,866 reviews · 5 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $94

Ride an air-conditioned coach from selected Honolulu hotels to Pearl Harbor and downtown Honolulu.

“I was disappointed to not get tickets to the Arizona memorial with the trip as the advertising is very misleading. The trip needs to be clearer about having to get your tickets before you arrive or you are in the standby line. We did manage to get to see everything we wanted and it was a full day, we arrived at 9, went on the standby list at 9:15am and got on the 11:30am boat. We managed to see everything but the bowfin sub and came back to that after the Missouri and aircraft museum. We did rush through the aircraft hanger so if you want to take more time…”

5.Pearl Harbor City Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4,254 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $69

Spend about five hours with E Noa Tours, starting with historic Honolulu and continuing to Pearl Harbor. Your guide, possibly Oli, RJ, Juicy, Kimo, or another local driver, explains Hawaii’s monarchy and the attack on Pearl Harbor. Pickup is offered from central Waikiki locations, but the USS Arizona boat ride is not always guaranteed.

“Juicy the driver kept us entertained and informed. We were first pickup at the Aloha tower so enjoyed a 45 minute tour of Honolulu and Waikiki beach as he filled up his double decker bus. The trip round the historic area was interesting but Pearl Harbour was as poignant as you would expect. The exhibitions taught this history buff a whole lot of stuff we in the UK are never told about the USA/Japan dynamic in the 1920/30s. Amazing.”

We throughly enjoyed ourselves and totally recommend the tour. After the visit to Pearl Harbour we got to see the war graves and given so very good information along the way. We also had time to have a short stop at the statue of one of their Kings. All in all apart from the 20 minute delay at the start that made the Pearl Harbour visit a little rushed we…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 621 reviews · 9 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $278

Spend a full day at Pearl Harbor with a guide such as Frank, Moana, Rey, or Garfield, visiting the Arizona Memorial, USS Missouri, USS Bowfin, and Aviation Museum. Admission, lunch, air-conditioned transport, and Waikiki pickup are included, though the Arizona boat ride depends on availability.

“Our tour guide was very informative explaining about some of the history of the island and about Pearl Harbour. The tour itself was self guided our package included an audio guide which gave a better insight to the exhibits. The only negative was we didn't have a lot of time to visit the Missouri due to the fact that some people arrived back later than the allotted time which then had a knock on effect on our time on the ship but other than that a great experience.”
