Tour Description
Start your day with a hotel or airport pickup (for those coming in from the outer islands) at about 6:30am. Next, we travel directly to the World War II Valor In The Pacific National Monument that is home to the USS Arizona Memorial and the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center. Then we’ll watch a short Pearl Harbor documentary video, take a boat ride and explore the museum exhibits.
After seeing Pearl Harbor we begin a 120 mile journey around the island of Oahu, seeing places like the Pacific Historic Parks, Dole Pineapple Pavilion, numerous beaches, farms, food trucks, markets, towns and legendary North Shore surfing spots. Along the way we include stops at popular lookouts like Nu’uanu Pali as well as plenty of beautiful overlooks on our day long journey.
After a full day circling the island we bring you back to the airport to catch your flight around 5:30pm.
Please ask us here if you have any questions.

This tour runs Monday To Saturday.
We recommend booking your Pearl Harbor tours in advance of your arrival to Hawaii. Pearl Harbor is our #1 visitor destination and will sell out on certain days of the week. Book your tour for the 1st or 2nd full day after your arrival. Our guests usually get up early in the morning due to the time difference, so you’re usually wide awake by the time your tour starts, plus your tour guide will point out highlights not to miss on Oahu.
*Safety is our #1 priority. Sites & features of our tours can change due to adverse weather and other unforeseen circumstances.
Meal Options
Lunch is not included in the tour price. Your guide will make stops for great local food.

Cancellation Policy
Tours With Flights Must Purchase Trip Insurance
In the event of cancellation or request change to your reservation, please note the following if you purchase trip insurance there is no charge for date change or tour change based on tour availability but must be made 72 hours prior to the original tour day. No refunds issued for any tours within the 72-hour period, prior to the start of your flights.
Pearl Harbor Tours that include airline flights from Maui, Big Island of Hawaii, or Kauai can qualify for a refund if guests add the $15 per person insurance during checkout. If you do not purchase insurance, there are no refunds for cancellations or no-shows. Rescheduling fees will be applied to change your dates. Tickets are non-transferrable.
No stop is guaranteed to be operating on the day of your tour. We have no control of Navy and Army operations which may result in the closure of Ford Island or the boats going to the Arizona Memorial without notice. In the event of this occurring, our guides will make up for it in a variety of ways so your experience is always worthwhile.

While there is no official dress code to visit the Pearl Harbor Historic Sites, we ask visitors to dress appropriately and respectfully. Swimsuits are not acceptable. High heels, skirts, and dresses are also not recommended. Flip-flops and sandals are permitted; however, we encourage you to wear closed-toe shoes as there is a lot of walking when visiting the Pearl Harbor Historic Sites.
For security reasons, no bags are allowed. Additionally, no iPad cases or clutch wallets are permitted. A wallet must be no larger than a regular-sized cell phone.
Bags are not allowed in Pearl Harbor Visitor Center but if needed may be checked and stored for $7.00 per small bag or $10.00 per large bag. It is recommended only essential items such as phones, wallets, and a water bottle or any needed medicines be brought on tour.

*Note: Due to unforeseeable circumstances, the Navy may need to suspend boat operations to the USS Arizona Memorial at any time, or they may impose a capacity restriction on the boat. As a result, you may be placed in a standby line. Unfortunately, in these cases, there will be no refunds. You are still free to enjoy the Visitor’s Center, exhibits, and park monuments. Please accept our apologies in advance.
