Oahu
Easy to pre-purchase before the park, they send you the QR and your ready to go!
Surreal experience seeing the ship WW2 ended on. Having a guide made it very pleasant.
Appreciate how all museums are bundled together on passport, really great day on grounds.
Nice to be able to set up the passport ahead of time and have it ready day of
I have traveled to Hawaii many times, but this was my first visit to this museum. The exhibits were more fulfilling than I expected, with many displays about the Hawaiian monarchy and photographs from that era, which were quite moving. You can deepen your knowledge about Polynesian culture as a whole. There are two guided sessions in Japanese at 10:30 and 11:30. We arrived at 10:45 without knowing this, but we negotiated and were allowed to join the 10:30 session (it might be a good idea to check in advance the days and times when the Japanese guide is available). In addition to the museum, there are facilities for children (playgrounds), a planetarium, and a science center, but these are not particularly impressive.
何度もハワイに旅行しましたが、こちらのミュージアムは初めて訪問しました。予想以上に充実した展示内容で、ハワイ王朝やその時代の写真展示も多く、感慨深かったです。ポリネシア文化全体についての知識を深めることができます。10:30~、11:30~の2回、日本人ガイドによる簡単な説明もあります。私たちは知らずに10:45に到着しましたが、交渉して10:30の回に入れていただきました(日本語ガイドの開催される曜日や時間は事前に確認した方がいいかもしれません)。ミュージアム以外にも、子供向けの学習施設(遊び場)、プラネタリム、科学センター等併設していますが、これらはさほどたいしたことはありません。
Thank you very much for visiting the Bishop Museum! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the Hawaiian Hall Complex, which is one of the highlights of our museum where you can explore the history, culture, and traditions of Hawaii and Polynesia through our exhibits. Currently, we are offering tours at 10:30 AM and 11:30 AM for about 30 minutes as much as possible after the pandemic, but as you mentioned in your comments, checking in advance will allow us to provide you with the latest information. We have special exhibitions that change periodically and new additions to our permanent exhibits, so we hope you will enjoy the museum again next time!
この度はビショップミュージアムへのご来館、誠にありがとうございました!展示品からハワイとポリネシアの歴史、文化、伝統をご覧いただける当ミュージアムの一番の見所とも言えるハワイアンホールコンプレックスをお楽しみ頂けたようでしたら私共も嬉しい限りです。パンデミック後の現在は10:30amと11:30amから約30分のツアーを可能な限り開催しておりますが、コメント頂きましたように事前にご確認頂けますと最新の情報をお伝えすることができます。期間で展示が変わる特別展や、新しく常設展示に加わるものもありますので、またどうぞ次回もミュージアムをお楽しみ下さい!
We learned so much about the history of Hawaii and the importance of restoring and maintaining its unique culture.
Thank you very much for visiting our museum! We are very glad to hear that you enjoyed our exhibits! Aloha!
Nice and easy to have ready for the event! Thanks for the help in setting up.
Best way to get to see all museums if you are touring on your own!
The passport to pearl harbor was an excellent experience for the price. You can see the many museums and learn about the event's history. I recommend this to anyone interested in WWII.
Appreciate so much offered in 1 ticket! Great day on PH grounds
Es war ein sehr interessanter Tag.
Alles war gut organisiert.
Mit dem Audioguides konnte man alle Informationen bekommen.
Leider war die Gepäckabgabe sehr teuer, 2 Rucksäcke kosten 20 $, wir dachten nicht dafür noch extra zahlen zu müssen.
we saw the main museum, the shuttle bus takes you to the Base & Missouri for a tour. you need the full day to see it all.
The Bishop Museum was at the top of our list when it came to museums to visit. With an expansive exhibit in the Hawaiian Hall main building, they have everything from artifacts from the Hawaiian Royal Family to traditional medicine and religion. Do not miss this part of the museum - it's too important to miss!
There was also a kid-friendly Backyard Adventures Exhibit in the Castle Memorial Building, which my young son absolutely enjoyed. Each part of this exhibit is interactive and teaches kids about the seasons and bugs too!
The Richard T. Mamiya Science Adventure Center is an amazing exhibit which houses their volcano exhibit and native flora and fauna. There is an amazing walk through of a dark maze backlit with colorful birds and plants. Don't miss this one either!
The Bishop Museum is a wonderful resource and cultural center for both locals and visitors. I highly recommend it and consider it to be among the most comprehensive publically available experiences on Hawaiian & Pacific culture. Don't miss the chance to visit!
Thank you very much for visiting our museum! I'm glad that you enjoyed the exhibits! Please come again! Thank you!
Was very pleased, plenty to see and learn about. We went on Sunday and it wasn't very crowded. Only thing is, by the end of the day this old man was worn out. It's a long day with lots of walking. I do not recommend the Missouri or the Dolphin (the submarine) for anyone who doesn't have full mobility. The interior of the Missouri has lots of watertight doorways and steep stairways to step through and the Dolphin has even smaller watertight doors. (I wouldn't recommend the Dolphin for a larger person either for the same reason. )
It was disappointing that the planetarium was closed, possibly still due to the effects of COVID-19, but there were more exhibits than I expected, and the content was rich. I would like to visit again on a day when there are hula lessons.
まだコロナの影響があるのか、プラネタリウムが休止中で残念でしたが、思ってた以上に展示物が多く充実した内容でした。フラレッスンがある日にまた訪れたいです。
Thank you for visiting us. The planetarium programs are held every day except Wednesday, but unfortunately, they are all in English. Starting from November 17, we have resumed paid hula lessons approximately twice a month. Please be sure to sign up for the next hula lesson. Thank you for your comment.
ご来館いただきありがとうございました。プラネタリウムのプログラムは水曜日以外催行されているのですが、残念ながらすべて英語のプログラムです。
11月17日から月2回程度ではありますが、有料フラレッスンを再開いたしました。次回はぜひフラレッスンお申し込みください。
コメントありがとうございました。
This is great way to see all the sites at Pearl Harbor in a cost effective and easy way. No problems going between each site. Thank you so much .
What a fantastic experience, this was definitely something that my hubby wanted to do on his bucket list, so glad we got to do this.
The tour guide we had was informative and friendly and we had plenty of time to wander about after our tour.
Definitely a must see.
Every staff member we encountered were super polite and happy. The 30 minute tour was very informative. Enjoyed being able to take my time after guided tour to really experience what life was like on the ship during that time. The ship Is really well preserved.
Was a great humbling experience I would definitely recommend to families with children- history is always good to learn and experience thank you so much for this experience as it has made me feel whole.
My family and I were very impressed with the Pearl Harbor experience
The overall tour was absolutely beautiful everyone was very informative and helpful the only thing that I would point out to improve your services would be better direct people on where to go. Thank you
Easy way to obtain tickets to all of the activities available. Having the audio narrator added to the experience. Definitely all day experience. Shuttle to Ford Island was good.
Walk and see at your own pace and time.
The shuttle bus is on time and not packed.
The bus drivers/tour guides provides good info and details on the sites visited.
Passport includes everything listed and allows for an all day tour of all parts of Pearl Harbor. The only thing not included is the $1 boat ride to the USS Arizona Memorial which can be reserved online ahead of time. This was well worth the price.
Ease of the tour, no hassle. The experience is depressing but educational. It is nice to know more about history. But one day was not enough to read and study. The audio tour on USS Arizona helped. They should make audio tour also on the USS Missouri and USS Bowfin. I would definitely buy a tour from this website again. How I wish the website will send coupons also to frequent fliers. I am planning to buy tickets to Polynesian center next time I go back to Oahu. The price is reasonable. Thank you.
Went to the Pearl Harbor Memorial with my family and had a wonderful time! Great Service! The staff truly went the extra mile for our tour.
We took our two boys, ages 6 & 8 and it was a perfect historical experience. Captivating, educational, great length and easy tour for young children. Highly recommend! I was worried about a longer tour that would lose the kids interest, but this did not disappoint. Both my boys loved the experience.
The whole reason we purchased this day trip was for the USS Arizona Memorial. There were issues with the dock, so we were not able to go out and view…
We enjoyed our visit to the Bishop Museum. The Hawaii Hall has so much information about the culture, from people to plant use to gods. We also used the QR codes to access additional information about the exhibits and found this information very helpful.
I had a wonderful time with our day at Pearl Harbor! Lines were a bit long which is to be expected. Once we reached the memorial it was beyond worth it! The staff really knows everything you need to know about the history there.
