Beautiful - Visiting Pearl Harbor was a highlight for our trip to Hawaii. It’s somber and respectful. Hearing the national anthem as they raised the flag at the USS Arizona gave me goosebumps. We visited the Missouri also. We plan to go back and spend more time.

Pear harbour a must to do in Hawaii - I had this on my bucket list lots of parking bays it was 7 dollars to park the car it’s a scan parking thing we where there for about 3 hours we didn’t go on the battle ship mustzori or submarine has there are lots of steps to get on we went on boat to theists Arizona memorial we had to be very quiet and not say a word they said that we could take pictures it felt strange
You only get 10 minutes and then the boat takes you back .
Not allowed to take bags you have to put them in a locker it was about 7 dollars wroth the money very penny. So so said

He had many thoughtful insights and travel tips. The van was comfortable and he was an excellent and safe driver. This was our first Viatour experience, and because of him we will be exploring more tours on our extended voyage. Highly recommend this well organized, safe, informative and enjoyable tour!

Pearl Harbor Pivot - We had a unique experience today, day 1 of the government shutdown.
Our tour guide Art was wonderful. The gates and parking areas were closed. Art kept us informed and pivoted our tour to the USS Missouri, indicating that although we were unable to visit the Arizona memorial, we could still view it from the dock of the Missouri.
He was a wonderful tour guide, The Best I have experienced. His knowledge of Hawaii is amazing and I highly recommend this tour, despite the fact that our access to Pearl Harbor was denied!

Waste of money - The tour guide was very fun and informative on the drive to Pearl Harbor, however, upon arrival we were informed there was an issue with the ferry that was to take us to the USS Arizona memorial site. We joined a waitlist for the ferry and were never called to get on said ferry. Every other museum at Pearl Harbor required approximately $25 per person to enter, but we didn’t because we spent such a hefty amount on this tour. Had I known extra payment was required of us, I would never have paid what I paid for this specific tour. When I disputed the charge - because I never received what I paid for - it was denied. Don’t waste your money on this. Just drive to the site, pay to get in and go on your own.
