Oahu
An amazing and moving experience visiting all 3 locations in Pearl Harbour. The experience was made extra easy and smooth with attention provided by tour guide Marlow.
Don't miss the chance to experience all of Pearl harbour.
Our guide was very knowledgable and entertaining. Our experience was well worth the cost. I would highly recommend.

The entrance shop sells clear bags, so you can put a little bit of your belongings in there. Each facility has places where you can eat, so you should be fine with almost empty hands.
入口の売店にクリアバッグが売っているのでそれに入れればちょっとの荷物は持ち込めそう。いずれの施設にも食事できるお店がありますのでほぼ手ぶらで大丈夫でしょう。
アロハ、マサヒさん。パールハーバー航空博物館にお越しいただきありがとうございます。ここで素晴らしい時間を過ごされたと聞いて嬉しいです。またのご来館をお待ちしております!
Aloha Masahi, Thank you for visiting the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum. I'm happy to hear that you had a wonderful time here. We look forward to welcoming you again!
We saw all of Pearl Harbor at our pace with a guided tour of the Missouri. You get 2 consecutive days to see everything. It was a very memorable visit. Book your boat to the Arizona first. We booked the Pearl Harbor pass first then had to change it due to no tickets available for our original dates. Also the dates are available about a month early.
You can get standby tickets to the Arizona but it’s not guaranteed.
The inside of the ship and submarine are not accessible to wheelchairs and are very tight spaces.
The whole day was pack full of things to do, and each of them were really special. It was a very long day, and the weather was warm, especially on the Missouri. I would not have skipped a thing, though. The staff were all wonderful and you could tell they had so much respect for the history of the place. This was a bucket list item for me, and I'm so grateful tho have been able to go.
Go early, get on the waitlist for the Arizona Memorial immediately. Drink lots of water.
This was the one tour that my soon-to-be husband wanted to do since he is a big World War II fan. Our favorite part was visiting the USS Arizona and the aerial museum. The audio tour at Pearl Harbor was insightful for myself not knowing as much as my partner. It was a very long day and we were very hot when we got to the USS Missouri. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. Loved the pick up and drop off at our hotel.
Wear comfy shoes and a hat is highly recommended.
Aloha Kara,

We weren't able to go on the memorial, I understand that, but Ranger who talked on the boat over should be given another job! One, she had to read off a paper about what happened on Dec-7. many times she lost her place and had to start over! If I couldn' t remember what happend I'd give on my job! Volunteer on Missouri was terrific,older retired military, very good presentation,knew what the hell he was talking about unlike the woman Ranger!
During my visit to Pearl Harbor National Memorial, I was struck by the powerful sense of history and reflection that filled the site. Walking through the museum exhibits, I learned about the events of December 7, 1941, and saw artifacts, photos, and personal stories that brought the day to life. Taking the boat ride out to the USS Arizona Memorial was especially moving, as I stood above the sunken battleship and honored the lives lost. The experience was both educational and emotional, offering a deep reminder of the sacrifices made and the importance of peace.
You can book the ticket last minute!
You can enter the Missouri, the Aviation Museum, and the Submarine Museum smoothly. At the Aviation Museum and the Submarine Museum, you can borrow audio guides for free, so even those who are not confident in their English can feel at ease.
ミズーリ号、航空博物館、潜水艦博物館にスムーズに入場できます。航空博物館と潜水艦博物館では無料でオーディオガイドを借りることができますので英語が苦手な方でも安心です。
If you want to take your time, I think it's better to split it into two days. Doing it in one day can be quite exhausting.
じっくり見たいようでしたら2日に分けるのがよいと思います。1日だと結構体力を使います。
I was able to take my time and explore throughout the entire day, which was very nice.
There were also light snacks available at various places, so I didn't have much trouble.
丸一日使ってゆっくり回れたのでとても良かったです。
軽食も各所にあるので、あまり困りませんでした。
It seems that the convenience store at the visitor center closes early, so please be careful.
ビジターセンターのコンビニは早く閉まるみたいなので、気をつけてくださいね
Passport gave us a smooth experience and entry into everything Pearl Harbor has to offer.
Just book your ferry ride out to Uss Arizona when you arrive so you’re not waiting to see it .
My son and I both thoroughly enjoyed the tour and found the staff and guides friendly, interesting and helpful. The only disappointment was that, at the end of the tour, we could have been given more time to tour the USS Missouri.
Book the all day tour. Although it was expensive, we felt it was well worth it.
Aloha and mahalo for your wonderful review!
We’re so glad you had an excellent experience from start to finish, and we appreciate you sharing those helpful feedback regarding the USS MO timing. Thank you for choosing Polynesian Adventure; we’re honored to have been part of your Hawaiian journey and hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure soon!

We are visiting from Australia and very impressed with the service and quality of this tour. Bus driver was hilarious, he had all the Dad jokes and was very informative. The Pearl Harbor Tour was both informative and respectful. Plus we received a delicious lunch. Bus was very comfortable and clean and on time. Would definitely recommend.
Dont be late for your pick up as it has a knock on effect with other passengers. We had no issues.
Everything was great with not problems at all. It was easy to purchase online and have the tickets on my phone.
This is absolutely a bucket list trip that everyone should take. It’s an amazing place with the USS Arizona Memorial and the tragedy of WWII. Finishing with the USS Missouri.
Aloha and mahalo for your wonderful review!
We’re so glad you had an excellent experience on our Pearl Harbor tour with lunch. It truly is a meaningful journey to learn about the beginning and end of WWII and to honor those who were impacted by the war.
Thank you for choosing Polynesian Adventure — we’re honored to have been part of your Hawaiian experience and hope to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable adventure.

This was an incredible experience and a highlight of the trip for our family. We particularly enjoyed the submarine and the tour of the ship.
You need a lot of time (and it goes super quickly!) but you will learn so much and be very moved.
Every thing you said it would be and more Thank you
Our guide was the best person we met throughout all the islands. He made this tour so personal and special, and was great overall.

The official website of the USS Missouri Memorial (https://ussmissouri.org/) also sells tickets, but I couldn't purchase them with my Japanese credit card, so I bought them through VELTRA. There are so many highlights that it might be difficult to see everything in one day. I considered other sightseeing tours departing from Honolulu, but I decided to split my visit into two days to take my time.
I purchased tickets for the Captain's Tour and the Chief Engineer's Tour (in Japanese) on the day of my visit, and they showed us places that are normally off-limits, making it a very interesting tour.
After visiting the USS Missouri, watching the movies "Battleship" and "Midway" provided a different perspective.
戦艦ミズーリ記念館の公式サイト(https://ussmissouri.org/)でも販売されていますが、日本のクレジットカードでは購入できなかったため、VELTRAで購入しました。見所がたくさんあるため、1日で回りきるのは難しいかもしれません。他のホノルル発着の観光ツアーも検討しましたが、ゆっくり観られるように2日間に分けて訪れました。
戦艦ミズーリのキャプテンツアーとチーフエンジニアツアー(日本語)は当日受付で購入し参加しましたが、通常では入れない場所を見せてくれるので、大変興味深いツアーでした。
戦艦ミズーリを見学した後に、映画『バトルシップ』と『沈黙の戦艦』を観るとまた違った視点で観ることができました。
You cannot bring carry-on luggage or bags (checking them is subject to a fee). I had a hamburger at the concession stand near the USS Missouri. (There were also hot dogs for sale near the submarine Bo
手荷物・バッグは持ち込めません(預けるのは有料です)。食事は戦艦ミズーリの近くの売店でハンバーガーを食べました。(ほかには潜水艦ボーフィンの近くにホットドックが売っていました)
This was the best tour we’ve ever been on! Marie was fantastic and a wealth of really interesting knowledge! We all learned so much history and she took us to many great sights! Highly recommend Blue Hawaii tours!
Just do it! You will not be disappointed!
Aloha Lana,
Thank you for your review. I'm so happy you enjoyed your tour.

It was surprisingly uncrowded, with few Japanese people, giving it a foreign theme park feel. There's quite a lot to see, and if you take your time, one day won't be enough.
意外と空いてました、日本人は少なく外国テーマパークという感じです。かなりのボリュームでゆっくり見たら1日で足りません。
Bags are not allowed to be brought in. You must check them in for a fee.

Our agent got us these and was easier and we got to avoid the long line at the park!
If it wasn’t for our tour guide, Dave, our adventure would have been very unsatisfactory. There was far far too much driving. The caves were inaccessible for most of us as the rocks were slippery. The stairs were steep, and there weren’t enough hiking sticks to go around. we stopped for quite a bit of time just to have lunch, which to me was very unnecessary. A snack would’ve sufficed. Then we drove, which seemed to be forever to go see the most recent lava flow… Which was quite interesting but somewhat repetitive. Again, if it wasn’t for our tour guide, Dave, his personality, information and enthusiasm It would’ve been a bust. Again far far far too much driving for what we actually could get out and enjoy and see.
Less driving and more interactive stops.
This was our first Hawaii visit and first tour on the island. The experience of this tour was well worth it, we had a great time and were able to take plenty of pictures. The communication was very clear on where we would be picked up, the times for each stop on the tour and information on each stop. We had plenty of time at each stop. We recommend the tour and would do it again.
Great crew. Better than expected. I would definitely do this again.
Do it!
Our tour guide was Wes. He was an excellent tour guide in charge was knowledgeable, entertaining & a historian of Hawaiian culture. We learned so much. We were touched so profoundly by the memorials.🇺🇸💝
Walking shoes & water bottle are a must.
I really enjoyed the tour. The tour guider is so nice, and organized very well, cared every person in the group, answered questions patiently. Also, the tour planned itself is excellent, no hurry, enough time for each activities, especially for seniors.
Thank you!
This was my first time participating. It was rewarding to not just watch it in videos but to actually visit and experience it. They also had various souvenirs for sale, which was great.
初めて参加しました。
動画で見るだけでなく実際に訪問して体験できたことが収穫
お土産も色々販売しております良かったです。
We loved the extra inclusions on this tour! Fabulous and easy day around PH
We loved our agent for setting this up ahead of time for us!! MAHALO
