Oahu
As an individual who is terrified of heights it has been a dream of mine to ride in a helicopter so I booked my flight on my 49th birthday. I chose this company as it seemed to have the most positive reviews. Kyle was our pilot and let's just say I had an awesome time!! He flew us over the best parts of Oahu!! There were waterfalls, beautiful beaches, the Dole plantation, Pearl Harbor and much more. It was the best birthday present EVER!!
Driver was informative. Very professional and helpful.
Tour driver was knowledgeable and was funny too. She knew the History and insight on the area.
As overseas visitors we were able to see and learned on what actually happened about the surprise attack on the Pearl Harbor naval facilities based on the videos presented and ships hit by the surprise attack. How the US navy base survived the attack. Our visit to the historical place was a big help on our history knowledge.
If the person by the window is in charge of photography, you can take great pictures even with a door. Since it was a travel day, I brought a large suitcase, but I was allowed to leave it in a corner of the room where the explanation video next to the reception counter was shown. I couldn't bring a bag on board, so I only took my smartphone and video camera. I left my valuables like my wallet in a staff-managed locked drawer. My daughter got motion sickness during the flight, but the captain kindly handed her an airsickness bag and checked on her frequently. The seats were assigned, and my son, who is not good with heights, ended up by the window, but he enjoyed the view. There is a box to leave tips in the initial room. I looked at the list of pilot photos and wrote my name and a message on an envelope to put in the tip. I had researched beforehand, but I wasn't quite sure about the amount, so I ended up putting in the largest bill I had in my wallet at that moment.
The views you can see only when you're on board are incredible. If you're interested, I encourage you to experience it for yourself.
窓際の人が撮影担当ならドア付でも十分良い写真が撮れます。移動日だったので大きなスーツケースを持って行きましたが、受付カウンター横の説明ビデオを見る部屋の片隅に手荷物と共に置かせてもらえました。機内にバッグは持ち込めず、私はスマホとビデオだけ持ちました。財布等の貴重品はスタッフ管理の鍵付き引出しに預けました。娘がフライトの途中から酔ってしまいましたが機長がエチケット袋を渡してくれ、度々気遣ってくれました。座席は指定され、高所苦手な息子が窓際になってしまいましたが眺めを楽しんでいました。初めの部屋にチップを入れるBOXがあります。パイロットの顔写真一覧を見て封筒に名前とメッセージを書いてチップを入れました。額は10%でもかなりの額になるので事前に調べたのですが結局良く分からず、その時財布にあった一番大きな額の紙幣1枚を入れました。
乗らないと見れない景色ばかり。興味があるなら思い切って体験してみて下さい。
Transpo- very good
Overall tour is very informative and enjoyable. Tour guides are great. Able to see uss misouri,uss bowfin and uss arizona memorial. The museum is great! I was talking to one of the personnel and he even gave me story about pearl harbour. Food serve is delicious. Able to meet my kababayan from Philippines. Thank you
Mahalo for spending the day with us at Pearl Harbor. One really needs to see it to understand and remember this infamous day in our history. Me ke aloha pumehana, Poly Ad Oahana
Aloha! We had a great time on the tour. Cousin Kimo was very knowledgeable and made the information on the tour interesting. It is the perfect length to get a sneak peak of Pearl Harbor and visit the Arizona memorial with a 3 year old in tow. So glad we did it. It is also a nice way to see a few of the hot spots downtown. Thank you cousin Kimo for all the information and the jokes that made it fun.
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.
The day goes by quick, so you may need a second day to explore, but the lunch add in was nice as it is hot durin the summer walking around grounds!
Nice to be able to set up the passport ahead of time and have it ready day of
Fantastic way to see the island. Flight was fun and informative. Pilot was great and the ground crew was fantastic. Was shown parts of the island I would never see from the ground. A ride and experience I will never forget.
It is a memorable day for us, we went to Arizona memorial, bowfin submarine in the morning, we had lunch at the hangers, then visited the battleship. We don’t need to worry about the tickets, shuttle and lunch, all have been arranged well, we have enough time to visit everywhere we like, I highly recommend the trip.
Nice and easy to have ready for the event! Thanks for the help in setting up.
Such a great way to see all of the Pearl Harbor sites! Pick up in Waikiki and all of the tickets included made it very easy. The included lunch was delicious and generous portion size. Our tour guide was very engaged and informative - she called us all her cousins and taught us a lot about Honolulu and Pearl Harbor. Would highly recommend!!
Mahalo for joining us Andrea! Glad you enjoyed your visit. Pearl Harbor experience is emotional and humbling indeed! Take care, Poly Ad Ohana
Earnel was just amazing. We've done lots of tours all over the world, and on an all-day tour like this one, the guide can make or break the tour. Earnel was one of the best we've had.
He was fun, friendly, knowlegeable, and very personable. He treated us all as "ohana" and made sure we had everything we needed to get the most out of this amazing day.
We loved the monuments and the whole tour. We'll definitely recommend it to others!
I’m so glad we ended up choosing this package rather than trying to coordinate this trip on our own. Our tour guide, Chelsie, sent us great information ahead of time so that we knew exactly what to bring, what to expect during the trip, and where to meet. The open air bus was a fun part of the trip. She shared great information as we drove through Honolulu and to Pearl Harbor. When we arrived, she made sure we knew where to go and our timeline for the trip. Everything went smoothly and the whole family enjoyed the visit.
Dear Chelsie, Thank you for taking the time to recognize and acknowledge the great tour you had with Chelsie. So pleased you received all you had hoped for on your tour to Pearl Harbor.
My family and I had a great time with the E Noa Pearl Harbor Tour! We were all very impressed by the extensive guided tour. I would definitely recommend this experience
Dear Grace, We are so delighted and happy you and your loved ones had an amazing tour with us at Pearl Harbor.
Best way to get to see all museums if you are touring on your own!
It was a long and tiring day, but it was absolutely worth it. There is so much history. Most people know about the USS Arizona Memorial, but there is so much more. The submarine Bowfin, battleship Missouri and the Aviation museum. With the short movies and museums at each attraction there is so much to see and do it takes a full day. Our 9 yo boy absolutely loved it. He never complained once. His favorite part was exploring the Missouri. I highly recommend this tour.
Really a great tour! Our guide was a well of knowledge, we learned so much! I would definitely consider this tour if it is your first time visiting Pearl Harbor.
We participated in this tour as a family (four adults). I'm glad we chose the helicopter without doors. It was thrilling, and without the doors, we had a great view of the scenery!! I was impressed by the incredibly beautiful views, such as Hanauma Bay. The pilot (English only) was also very kind and wonderful! He piloted while explaining important locations. Don't forget to tip the pilot!! If you receive good service, it's nice to give a gratuity.
I strongly recommend taking motion sickness medication, as I think people who are not used to helicopters will definitely get sick! We took motion sickness medication in advance and chose the shorter 30-minute course, but we still felt a little nauseous. Just when I thought I was getting sick, we landed, so it was okay, but if it had been the longer 60-minute course, I might have felt worse.
We also purchased the video recording option, but to be honest, I think it wasn't necessary. There was no audio, and the visuals weren't very clear, so it felt like it wasn't worth the price. Other than that, I was very satisfied! I highly recommend this tour!
私たちは家族(大人4人)でこのツアーに参加しました。ドアなしのヘリコプターを選択して良かったです。スリルがあったし、ドアがないので景色が良く見えました!!ハナウマ湾などすごく美しい景色に感動しました。そして、パイロット(英語のみ)の方もすごく優しくて素晴らしかったです!重要な場所の説明をしながら操縦してくださいました。パイロットさんにチップをあげるのを忘れないでくださいね!!良い対応してもらったらお心付けを渡しましょう。
ヘリコプターに慣れていない人は絶対酔うと思うので、酔い止めを飲むことを強くお勧めします!私たちは酔い止めを事前に飲み、短めの30分コースを選択しましたが、それでも少しだけ酔いました。酔って来たなーと思ったところで、着陸したので大丈夫でしたが、長い60分コースとかだったら気持ち悪くなっていたかもしれません。
私たちはオプションでビデオ録画も買いましたが、はっきりいってこれはいらなかったと思います。音声はないし、映像もあまり鮮明ではなかったので、これでこの値段か・・・って感じでした。それ以外は大満足!すごくお勧めのツアーです!
The Pearl Harbor Guided Arizona Memorial & USS Battleship Missouri tour was so moving. The Arizona Memorial was very humbling to know how many lives were given up for the freedom we enjoy today. The Battleship Missouri was amazing, knowing all the history that transpired on it. The tour underneath with all the memorabilia brought us right back to the days that the letter were written, the bed that were slept in, the uniforms that were worn and so much more. It was so educational and inspirational!
My husband and I did the full day tour and had a wonderful time with our tour guide Donna! We moved quicker since there were only 2 of us, but had a great time! Donna was very informative and fun! Highly recommend this!
Aloha
Thank you for your review. We are delighted you enjoyed your private tour with Donna. You were fun guests and we hope to see you again next time on a Best of Oahu Sightseeing Tour. A hui hou

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.
we thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Kerry. The whole tour was a very somber experience and we learned much about Pearl Harbor. Kerry was knowledgeable on the Honolulu city tour. we would definitely take other tours with Kerry as our guide.
I had an amazing time the Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial & Honolulu city Tour was more than informative. Our tour guide was awesome and she just knew what she was doing and talking about. I would do it again with her as the tour guide. LEI Thank you for being soooooooooo informative.
On the bus rides over they give a lot of awesome detail!
Appreciate so much offered in 1 ticket! Great day on PH grounds
