Availability

We recommend booking your Pearl Harbor & Honolulu 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. * Tour features & stops are weather and safety permitting.

Our total time at Pearl Harbor is about 3 Hours, or longer if you want to continue visiting other sites at Pearl Harbor, such as the USS Missouri or the Pacific Aviation Museum, or we can explore the Island of Oahu. All our guides providing Honolulu private tours share valuable information to make your vacation overall better! Remember, this is your private Oahu tour and after our stop at Pearl Harbor you get to determine the itinerary. Of course your guide can suggest several “must-see” places on the Island of Oahu, but the stops are entirely up to you!

USS Arizona Memorial

After the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center it’s only a short trip to the USS Arizona Memorial aboard a U.S. Navy launch. The memorial was constructed such that you can view the USS Arizona under the water beneath you. Within the USS Arizona lie the 1,177 unsuspecting heroes who died on that horrible “Day of Infamy.” And, if you look for it, you will see a sheen of oil on the water. This sheen of oil has been dubbed “black tears”, and it 75 years later there is still a slow leak of this oil from the hull of the Arizona. Every one of the 1,177 crew members’ names who were interred on the USS Arizona are etched in stone and on display. The memorial is a serene and beautiful honor to those who were lost that day. Trying to truly understand the depth of the events as they unfolded on that infamous day? Visiting the ships, the memorial; witness the disastrous attack footage… observe the US flag at half-staff to honor those who gave their lives for our freedom and who still remain certainly helps to bring it into a realistic view. Explore the US’s role in world history, up close and personal.
