Shuttle to Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial & Honolulu City Tour - Roberts Hawaii
Overall Rating
4.55
A very sobering experience
Reviewed by: Bryan, 2008/02/08The navy treats the arizona memorial as a cemetary, and most of the guests do the same. Some people feel the need to ruin it for everyone else by talking loudly, but besides them, there is a definate feeling of patriotism onboard the memorial. The city tour was fact filled and interesting.

PEARL HARBOR
Reviewed by: Shaina, 2008/01/10Visiting Pearl Harbor is a very solemn experience embedded in history and displayed for future generations in an eloquent, respectful, and informative manner.
I would definitely recommend this tour to others with the suggestion that those going do so in the morning and as there usually is quite a line to get in. However, the tour is well worth it. You can actually imagine what it would have been like to experience the fateful event. The dignified proceedings allow one to truly reflect upon the historic happenings of Dec. 7th, 1941, without an atmosphere of hopelessness.

Arizona Memorial always Good
Reviewed by: bj, 2007/11/26We were picked up at a hotel very near ours, easy to find. We had a large comfortable bus. The bus driver provide great commentary during the drive to the Arizona. The Arizona memorial is always awesome. This is my third time, my families first. Great video presentation and museum prior to the boat ride.
Tour of the City afterwards was great and we took the option to be dropped off at Hilo Hatties. Great Hawaiian Store.
Thanks!

It was fun!
Reviewed by: Family Vacationers, 2007/08/21The driver was funny and pointed out all the interesting sights and details. The tour itself was good. It was our first day on the island and a great chance to see things without getting lost. We took time later to visit some places again, but had the history (as presented by our driver) to help us understand it all. Thanks for a great tour!!

Reviewed by: Jack Caldwell, 2007/06/14The Arizona and Honolulu tour was very well done. We arrived at the Arizona Memorial early and our guide was very well versed in the happenings. Honolulu tour was quick but infomative.

Arizona Memorial and City Tour
Reviewed by: Patsy Howell, 2007/06/11We were picked up on schedule, the bus driver was excellent -
very informative - even telling us not to jay walk because
Honolulu accessed a $92 fine for doing so.
We had an excellent narration the entire time we were on the
bus and, it goes without saying, the Memorial is well worth
going to see. Very touching.
He returned us to our point of origin as scheduled.

Arizona Memorial
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2007/05/30The Arizona Memorial Tour was far more then I expected. I think everyone should visit the memorial at least once, and then again any time their patriotism fades. To see first hand the devastation of the ship and realize that there are hundreds of men entombed there is a real eye opener. Our guide was friendly and informative. I would suggest paying the $5 at the memorial for the audio tour, we didn't, and I feel we missed out on some of the reality. The museum is phenomenal and you really need to take your time through it. It's a great tour, but I would like to have spent more time there.
