Day-Trip from Maui to Oahu - Arizona Memorial & USS Missouri Pearl Harbor Tour
Overall Rating
4.62
Decent Experience
Reviewed by: Aaron, 2018/07/14The accommodation for getting set up to fly in from Maui and meet my docent was easy and stress free. The staff met me at both airports and it was easy from there. My driver was Tommy, he was friendly, funny, and informative. The only real negatives about my experience was the closed Arizona memorial (not the company’s fault just bad timing) and a lack of time at the USS Missouri. My group and I were handed off to a tour guide with the USS Missouri organization who was slow and annoying and by the time she was finished there was only 20 minutes to explore the ship before we had to get back on the bus. The other stops had enough time in my opinion but I recommend not following the tour guide on the Missouri and explore on your own. Overall a good experience.

Maui Fly-Away to Oahu
Reviewed by: Roger Carson, 2017/03/25Although pretty expensive...this was an enjoyable outing! Very impressed with Hawaiian Airlines...We're mainlander's so it was our first time to fly with them. Our tour bus driver (just call him ED) did a great job and gave us a lot of great back ground information on each exhibit. It was a long day, but we can recommend this tour...

Reasonable trip
Reviewed by: PH Visitor, 2016/05/16This was an OK way to see Pearl Harbor from Maui. We were greeted by someone when we arrived at the airport but when we arrived in Oahu, we couldn't find anyone. Eventually after 20+min, someone did arrive. The bus driver was OK. We arrived at Pearl Harbor and he was helpful showing us how to get around and provided some helpful trips. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get out to the USS Arizona - the launches were postponed due to winds. We missed it by 1 tour - 30 min. I know this was not necessarily the fault of the tour guide but we did spend time standing around. We could have made an earlier tour. Disappointing. Anyway, all in all this was a good to OK experience.

Too long waiting for shuttle buses
Reviewed by: Brian, 2016/04/23Our flight & our driver were great - driver went out of his way back to get shuttle buses to replace the ones that were running late. Driver deserves a pat on the back - "cousin K" - he did an amazing job. Good tour otherwise.

Pearl Harbor and Honolulu
Reviewed by: Taylor's 3, 2011/03/27We really enjoyed our trip and tour of Oahu from the meeting at the airport until our drop off at the airport. Our driver was Leo C. and he did a great job. He made sure we knew exactly where we were going and he was very informative. About the only suggestion I would make is to try to, somehow, give a little more time at each sight at Pearl Harbor. Always seemed a little rushed. Maybe have a earlier flight to Oahu.

Inter Island visit to Pearl Harbor.
Reviewed by: C. Gomez,Msgt.ret.USAF, 2010/03/07We found the tour to be everything we expected. Apart from some delays with pick up from the airport/Honolulu, all else proceeded as planned. The memorial experience was very emotional yet rewarding and an experience not to be missed.
The remainder of the tour was most interesting during the sightseeing in the area and our tour guide kept us well informed regarding the history etc.

Maui to Oahu and Pearl Harbor tour
Reviewed by: Pattie412, 2009/05/29My husband and I were amazed at the professionalism. We were picked up promptly at our hotel, taken to the airport, where we were met by another member of your staff, got our boarding passes, and were on our way. Our tour guide Ed, in Oahu was delightful--funny, informative, and knowledgeable. When our plane landed back in Maui, a driver was waiting to return us to the Hyatt. Great trip, great time!

Maui to Oahu & Pearl Harbor
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2008/11/19Our tour driver, ED, was wonderful! He made the day extremely enjoyable. We found that being part of the tour made our day stress free. We did not have to worry about driving in a city that we were unfamiliar with. We also saw sites that we would not have seen otherwise. Ed kept our group on time so that we could make the most of our day.

Great Day, HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Reviewed by: Susan, 2008/05/25Our tour guide made our day at Pearl Harbor and everywhere we went. His name is ED not Mr. ED. He had so much first hand knowledge and was just so well read and history educated. He was amazing and what a memory. We could have not asked for more of a history buff.
I do have suggestions for one area that left the trip a little flat at the end. I would have liked to have spent more time at Pearl Harbor(like to do the museum) and less time stopped in downtown Honolulu. I loved the bus trip around the city with all the mastery of Ed talking to us but we just stopped to long in town. Then my one thing that left me flat. We got to the airport just in time to hear a flight called for our destination (reminding everyone that we had been us since 4:00 am) and this was NOT our flight. We had to wait another 2-1/2 hours and our flight was not on time. It was not a good end to a perfect day. I would suggest that the trip to Honolulu be cut short so that the flight could be made more

Experience Pearl Harbor
Reviewed by: P. Eubanks, 2007/10/01I flew directly into Maui but wanted to see Pearl Harbor. This tour was the perfect opportunity! They arranged the flight to O'ahu and a nice, small bus with large windows to transport the group through the day and deliver us back to the airport on time. Our guide was excellent and entertaining! Be prepared for a long, full day but return with a complete experience of Pearl Harbor and a narrated bus ride through many sight of Honolulu. Lunch on Wikiki was a riot! The tour was interesting and well organized but allowed me the opportunity for some individual exploration and relaxation.

Pearl Harbor tour was great!
Reviewed by: Linda, 2007/08/07Seven of my family members made the trip from Maui to Oahu on this trip. We had a great time. Our tour guide, Tiny, was fabulous! He was so informative and funny!! He definitely made the trip worthwhile. The tour was fast-paced, but we got to see everything that we wanted. The greeters at the airport were very friendly and explained the details of the trip to us so that the whole day went smoothly. Thank you for a wonderful day.
