Atrip to Hawai’i is incomplete without a visit to one of the most popular destinations in Hawaii, Pearl Harbor. Seeing the USS Arizona Memorial and the Missouri Battleship lined up on Battleship Row is a sight to behold. You can see it all, stress-free with these Pearl Harbor ticket packages! Flights from the islands of Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island of Hawai’i, transportation, and admissions for a day-long adventure to the island included.
The USS Arizona Memorial is hallowed ground, with 1,102 sailors and marines interred in the ship beneath. The memorial’s white walls list the names of the lost. Nearby, is the USS Missouri Battleship, and upon her decks, the surrender deck where World War II ended. The Pearl Harbor National Monument includes numerous museums, shops, and exhibits, perfect for history lovers.
On this tour, after curbside airport pickup, we’ll explore the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center, and then take a boat ride to the USS Arizona Memorial. After a solemn visit, we travel to Ford Island to explore the “Mighty Mo” (Battleship Missouri). Explore beneath her decks, hear her service story, and witness damage from a kamikaze attack. Once you’ve enjoyed the USS Missouri, it’s time for a relaxing tour of historic Honolulu.
We will drive into Punchbowl Crater which overlooks the city and through downtown Honolulu. See sites like the Iolani Palace, Kamehameha Statue, Kawaiaha‘o Church, and more!
The first stop on the tour is the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center where you can learn all about the attacks that occurred on December 7th, 1941. Take some time to browse the historical displays throughout the visitor center to learn more about the events that took place that day as well as the events that lead to the United States entering into WWII. Of course, there are plenty of souvenirs to bring back home (All purchases help keep these facilities operational and updated). You’ll be also able to purchase lunch / snacks from the food vendors and spend some time relaxing while you enjoy your meal.
It’s a quick trip over to the USS Arizona memorial aboard a U.S. Navy launch from the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center. The memorial lets you view the USS Arizona under the water below you. Within the USS Arizona lie the 1,102 of the 1,177 heroes who lost their lives on the “Day of Infamy.” The memorial is a solemn and beautiful tribute to those who lost their lives. Want to truly understand the gravity of the events that happened on that fateful day? Visiting the memorial, witnessing the destruction, knowing that those who died in the name of freedom remain beneath you while the U.S. flag still waves at half-staff will certainly help bring it all into perspective. It’s a history buff’s dream tour.
Now, you’ll take a quick trip to Ford Island for the next leg of our tour. You’ll be welcomed aboard the deck of the USS Missouri. She was the last battleship built by the US Navy and is affectionately referred to as “Might Mo.” The USS Missouri is famous as she participated not only in WWII, but also the Korean War, Vietnam War, and Persian Gulf War. During the tour you’ll be able to walk the deck of Mighty Mo and learn about this great battleship and her legacy. You’re invited to stand in the exact spot where representatives of the Empire of Japan signed the Japanese Instrument of Surrender on September 2nd, 1945 marking the end of World War II.
No tour of Honolulu’s rich history would be complete without visiting Punchbowl Cemetery. Also known as the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, Punchbowl Cemetery is one of Hawaii’s most popular tourist attractions and serves as a memorial to the men and women of the United States Armed Forces who lost their lives. During the scenic drive you’ll be able to view the meticulous landscaping at the cemetery while you reflect on the beauty and reverence that is felt throughout the entire area. While driving through Punchbowl Cemetery you’ll also get to view Courts of the Missing and the chapel.
After experiencing Pearl Harbor, you’ll be taken on a narrated driving tour of downtown Honolulu. During the tour you’ll have your curiosity peaked by:
- Iolani Palace, the only royal palace on American soil
- Kawaiahao Church (one of the oldest Christian churches in Hawaii)
- An 18 foot statue of King Kamehameha (Hawaii’s first king)
- Honolulu Hale (Honolulu City Hall)
These beautiful, historical sites come to life thanks to the expert narration and local knowledge that your driver shares with you while you enjoy your tour of Honolulu city.
