Waikiki Shuttle to Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial & City Tour - Roberts Hawaii

A missed opportunity

Reviewed by: C. Bennett, 2014/07/22

My wife and I went to Hawaii for our anniversary and as a history buff, I was really looking forward to seeing the Arizona Memorial and this tour seemed like a great opportunity to get the visit in on our limited time in Oahu.

However it was not to be, I was at the stop to board the coach on time. When the coach arrived (The tour was run by Robert's Hawaii), I was informed that the bus would be returning to the hotel between 1 and 1:30 PM; over an hour later than the itinerary on either website lists. Because of this, I could not make the trip which is the biggest disappointment I had on my vacation.

The ugly business out of the way, the staff at Veltra/Hawaii Activities and Roberts were extremely friendly helpful and went out of their way to make it right. I was given a refund despite it being well past the cancellation window and the agent I spoke with was very apologetic about the tour.

If I could rate just the staff, I would give them 5 stars, but the tour information still shows a 12-12:30 return to the hotels, so I would caution anyone that plans to take this tour to verify the return before and/or plan for a later return or risk being disappointed as I was.

Waikiki Shuttle to Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial & City Tour - Roberts Hawaii

Fantastic!

Reviewed by: Kathybee, 2014/07/03

This tour did not disappoint! My folks used to live in Mililani Town so I have been to Oahu many times. I didn't really think I could learn more than I already knew but I was wrong. Our driver/guide was phenomenal - I wish I could remember his name - and he was on the mic literally the entire time. He was funny and engaging, and shared island/culture stories and hilarious anecdotes. He answered the same boring questions I'm sure he's been asked a million times as though he was being asked for the first time. He spoke not only about the obvious "touristy" stuff, but shared "local" tidbits as well.

Pearl Harbor and the Arizona Memorial...haunting and beautiful. This was my 8th visit the Memorial and I learn something new each time. A very noticeable change is how quiet the Memorial itself is. During previous visits I was sad to hear the disrespectful chatter and laughter by some tourists. The staff does an excellent job of reminding everyone of respectful behavior and I could definitely hear the difference. The Visitor's Center has changed quite a bit since my last visit and many new exhibits/experiences have been added. I recommend it highly, even if you've been before.

A side note about courtesy and consideration. There is always one family/group who doesn't seem to care if they keep others waiting and we certainly had one on this tour. If you are directed to be back to the bus at a certain time, please plan accordingly. Nothing sours the mood faster than being made to wait more than 25 minutes for people we had seen in the gift shop on our way to the bus.

The journey back to Waikiki was just as lively and informative as the morning trip. I can't express enough what a pleasure our driver/guide was. He made the tour for us!

Beautiful

Reviewed by: Lisa, 2014/06/28

It was such a beautiful and memorable tour! I highly recommend you take this tour! They will make sure you have tickets for that day.... If you go on your own, you are not guaranteed tickets for the day. I recommend you take this tour... The tour around downtown was also so informative. The bus driver was very knowledgeable and funny!

Reviewed by: NC Hairston, 2014/06/26

Our bus driver kept us on track and shared great information about the entire Honolulu area. We returned to the bus early and he pulled out a ukulele and started singing. It was very entertaining! The AZ Memorial was impressive and our driver was great!

Pearl Harbor

Reviewed by: Petals4Zuzu, 2014/04/06

The museums and displays at Pearl Harbor were way more than we expected. My teens aren't always enthusiastic about history but they were very engaged with these activities and when we went out to the Arizona Memorial, it was clear they understood the import of this place in American history. Very moving. The Missouri was well worth the time and investment.

Great day!

Reviewed by: NicoleG, 2014/01/02

We chose the trip with the tour because we had nothing else scheduled for the day, and I'm glad we did! After visiting the memorial, we were able to go aboard the USS Missouri and spent a good amount of time there. Afterwards, our super nice guide took us around town showing us all of the main attractions and was able to answer all of our questions! We were picked up and dropped off at the hotel which made this really convenient. I would recommend this to everyone! We were back by early afternoon so still had plenty of time left to do our own thing for the rest of the day. Great experience!

Waikiki Shuttle to Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial & City Tour - Roberts Hawaii

EXCELLENT tour guide

Reviewed by: palacegang, 2013/11/08

Felix, our guide, was HILARIOUS and FULL of trivia information about the memorial and all the Hawaiian islands! Loved seeing the sights in downtown Honolulu and hearing it's history. Don't miss the opportunity to speak to and thank the WWII vets that are usually there at the memorial - priceless! The only thing that we missed was actually going ON the USS Missouri (Big Mo) and the submarine there. The sub cost an extra $10, but we didn't have time to go on. Access to Big Mo was not offered.

Exactly what we hoped for!

Reviewed by: Sara J., 2013/09/14

I had read other reviews of this tour that mentioned not having enough time for everything, so when we booked the tour, I mentioned that seeing the Missouri was our top priority. Sure enough, when we arrived at the memorial, our guide (Steve) handed us tickets to the Missouri with the right guidance so we could see it first, and still have time for the Arizona. Steve was great, gave the whole group detailed coaching and an insider's perspective, and kept us all on track. Terrific use of a day of our vacation!

Arizona Memorial & USS Missouri at Pearl Harbor Half-Day Tour (No Guide)/ Arizona Memorial & Downtown

Reviewed by: Kenneth Ferguson, 2013/08/19

The Bus Driver was excellent; very knowledgeable and gave us a great visit with great information on the history. Unfortunately it was a morning tour - but we had tickets for 2 PM? Having paid so far in advance it was a little annoying to have to wait for an hour on the stand by line. We never saw the Missouri - just the Punchbowl cemetary - so I think we should get a partial refund on this one as well.

Good Tour

Reviewed by: RSK, 2013/08/14

Good tour for the price. Worth having someone pick you up and do the driving. We wish we had more time on the Missouri and to see the museums back on Ford Island. We drove from Honolulu, to Pearl Harbor to get tickets, back to Honolulu for the tour, then to Pearl Harbor, and then back to Honolulu. I would have preferred that we were picked up a bit later and have the tickets all ready for us. We barely had any breakfast and because there isn't much time, we didn't eat from 6:30 am to almost 4 pm. Our tour guide was very courteous and informative (Marlan).

Ok tour

Reviewed by: Lis, 2013/07/15

The tour is early so don't b late because they will leave you. The pearl harbor part of the tour is nice and short but long enough to get pictures of the memorial, museum and to do some shopping. The rest of the tour around the city i did not like. It felt like we drove around forever. At the cemetery the bus just drives in and out. It does not stop or lets u get out so you just get a quick glimpse and thats it. I am glad it was a half day tour.
