Oahu
Was really informative, fun, yet still educational. Took the whole family we all enjoyed it. The tour around the city was just right to get the main points of Hawaiian history. The driver was very well informed on all the facts.
This was a great tour. I am planning on doing it again in 2009. Our tour guide/driver, Art, was great. Great deal and very informative.
Brother Oscar was great. Informative and entertaining. A great tour for all. Well recommended.
Your tour guide was Ron. He was the best tour guide anyone would want. He was very knowledgeable and took time to show us everything. Thank you very much. The MO is magnificent.
Great tour and guide
Pilot was very knowledgeable and good.
Pearl Harbor-Battleship Missouri Tour. I had randomly chosen this tour as a last-minute activity before we visited Honolulu. It was a wonderful surprise to have a very knowledgeable individual tour guide. The additional spaces we we able to visit on the ship were awesome and it was indeed worth price of admission.
It was the highlight of our Vacation! If anybody is interested in history then you need to go and do the tour ! We loved it!!!
This was worthwhile. Guide was helpful, informative, friendly. One drawback - necessary time limitations; if you really want to be leisurely about the visit, tour the museum using the audio guide ($5 price, not part of Hawaiiactivities.com), shop the store at your pace, etc., it may be better to drive yourself to the site. If that's not your objective, then this tour is perfect. The tour of Honolulu afterward was very enjoyable, giving bits of history and current news.
COUSIN BOB IS WONDERFUL. HE HAS SO MUCH INFORMATION TO SHARE WITH US. MY HUSBAND AND I ENJOYED THE TOUR.
My father fought in WWII in Italy, my brother was stationed off the coast of Vietnam for two tours, and my son is now serving in Iraq. To say the least the tour of the USS Missouri and the viewing of Pearl Harbor was emotional...just thinking about all who fought for our freedom and all who gave their life. Thank you for preserving history.
The 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.
The tour was very enjoyable and the guide was fantastic. We learned a lot more about the events and places than we imagined.
Excellent experience. I would not miss it for anything. Will do it again the next time we are in Hawaii.
Visiting 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.
"Cousin" Greg was a great Tour Guide -- very
professional, informative and entertaining!
My entire family enjoyed the tour very much.
This was an awesome tour. There were 6 of us including my mother who is 76 and her first time in Hawaii. We loved this and the tour guide was excellent
There were 4 of us on this tour, and we had varied levels of enjoyment. Overall, the tour is worthwhile. It is a bit of history that everyone should know, even though war is still hell.
We toured the Missouri with our Children. The boys loved the guns and it was very interesting to see how they live. I would recommend this tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and made it interesting and not just something that she was there to do. She realy believed in the cause.
We 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!
Well organized and informative, particularly the battleship Missouri
We truly enjoyed this tour.
It was wonderful.
We had a wonderful time on this activity.
Our bus driver was so funny and friendly.
He really cared about helping us have a fun trip. I would recomend this to all of my friends.
We had a great time and the guide was very knowledgable and personable...thank you.
Our guide, Richard, was the best and was able to answer all our questions with candor.
Our bus driver was great and very helpful. We could not have seen all that we covered in one day on our own. The one day tour was well worth the cost.
We didn't have much time on Oahu so this tour lenght was the best for us. Oscar the driver was great!
We wish the dvd player would have been working so that we could have purchased a personalized copy of our tour. Getting a basic one for free was nice though...thanks for trying to do the right thing!
We took the Explorer's tour and had a guide, he was very knowledgeable and this tour was the BEST of all the tours we took in Hawaii!
