Much knowledge was gained

Reviewed by: Tim and Pam, 2023/06/11

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.

Last minute booking - Successful

Reviewed by: JD and CL Rez, 2022/10/18

Tour guide/bus driver, Ms. Lola, was extremely upbeat and cheerful, provided a fun and interesting city/area tour, included all the “best spots” for everything. Ms. Lola was awesome and even though some of the scheduled events were delayed, reassured that “no one would be left behind”. The company also did a great job securing tickets to the memorial (Arizona) when other companies could not.

Great experience

Reviewed by: Patrick, 2022/08/06

It was a great experience. We wish it had included more narrative information on the memorial, we missed the twenty minute film somehow. So that may have filled that void. We did enjoy the tour, all went well and would surly recommend this tour.

Reviewed by: R. J. Ferguson, 2022/06/05

We were picked by a nice comfortable bus for the Pearl Harbor an the U.S.S MISSOURI with the National Pounchbowl Cemetery. It was our first time to Hawaii an the tour of the city was also nice. It would just be nicer if there was a little more time between each tour so that u don't have to rush.
But all an all it was a good tour.

Not sure how I feel...

Reviewed by: Heather, 2022/03/26

I was shocked to find we could not bring our purses in to the facilities. I did not read anything about this on my reservation. There were a lot of people at Pearl Harbor and there was not enough time during the excursion to go into the museums and gift shops. I felt rushed the whole time. Our driver was super nice and very knowledgeable. I feel like this excursion needs more time! There was not even enough time to eatunch and we were starving!

Tour of Pearl Harbour and the Missouri

Reviewed by: Wendy, 2021/11/07

We really enjoyed this tour. We would have liked to have had a little longer at the Arizona memorial itself as there were so many people it was hard to get the pictures that we wanted in such a short time. Seeing the Missouri was a plus and was awesome, since I am a nurse I would have liked to have seen more of the medical side of the ship...infirmary, pharmacy, Dr office etc....Overall it was very informative and we enjoyed the tour..

Must do!

Reviewed by: Christina S, 2021/07/30

The Deluxe Pearl Harbor tour is a must do trip if you're visiting Oahu! The tour seems long but we actually could have easily stayed even longer. Our tour guide Patrick was fantastic and very informative as we drove up to Punchbowl Crater, the cemetery and around Honolulu. We will definitely take this tour next time we visit.

We had a great time

Reviewed by: Christine, 2021/07/24

I’ve never been to Oahu so for those coming for the first time, I would definitely recommend going on a a few tours. BK was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable. I’m glad I found this tour here because I tried to purchase everywhere else online and it was all sold out. The only suggestion I have for those going on any tours is to keep track of time. I spent too long at USS Missouri and missed my scheduled tour for USS Arizona Memorial. Luckily I was able to get in on standby but I had to run to the bus right after because time was up.

Great tour. Very informative trip through the city and the two main attractions (Arizona and Missouri) were awe-inspiring.

Reviewed by: J, L & M Thompson, 2020/02/28

Larry with Royal Star handled our tour.... if you find a way to replicate him, you will be well served (as well future attendees). He was knowledgeable, fun, affable and a perfect fit for the thread that ties these parts of the tour together.
Cemetery was humbling and very moving - at the very time we drove through, military was preparing for an internment that day.
Downtown tour was just right - highlighting both historical and current buildings and sharing information for possible additional visits later.
Arizona Memorial - website information helped us prepare well (clear bags allowed us to bring cameras and other items). The presentations at the visitor center were informative, and the video presentation was very moving. Little was said on the transport to the memorial, and our time there was memorable -- anyone who visits and is not moved by the sacrifice and losses is missing something.
Missouri was very interesting as well. Self-guided touring allowed for us to take the time needed to explore areas we found interesting. We did not see the Air Museum (but it's on the list next time). Transfers to and from Ford Island were well timed and operated - then it was time for Larry to take us "home".
ONLY complaint - our visit at both the Arizona and Missouri seemed a little rushed. We had about an hour before our tickets for the video, then seemed to have only ten minutes at the memorial (I understand might have been time for lunch for the tender captains?) and then ten minutes before our bus to Missouri (and find time for lunch). At Missouri, we had at most 90 minutes from drop off to time to board return bus back to the visitor center. Even another fifteen minutes at each memorial would have allowed for a more relaxing and reflective visit.

Great day out

Reviewed by: Kevin Connolly, 2018/09/19

From pick up to drop off we had a fantastic day out, disappointed that the Arizona memorial was closed due to the damaged supports however we did get to view it from the boat that takes you out, our driver Marlon was very knowledgeable about honolulu and surrounding area, we had time to visit downtown including the Iolani palace, 5 o headquarters and chinatown, I would have no hesitation in recommending this tour and would do it again.

Very Informative Tour - Our Driver Larry Was Excellent

Reviewed by: Outrigger Guest, 2018/07/07

Very comfortable bus with a bathroom. Our driver Larry provided a plethora of information about Oahu and Pearl Harbor. Highly recommend both the Arizona and Missouri tours. Take the guided tour on the Missouri as the guide will point out many facts and stories you would not otherwise learn. Food stands at the Missouri are much better than what's available at the Arizona so if you want to snack hold off until you get to the Missouri. This was a great tour and I highly recommend it!
