A full-day tour to the island of Oahu from Maui, Big Island or Kauai, to experience history at Pearl Harbor and the USS Missouri.
Pearl Harbor Tickets & Helicopter Tour
This tour has it all. Round trip airline tickets to Oahu, tickets to Pearl Harbor, rental car for the entire day, and a 45-minute helicopter tour around the entire island of Oahu. Your Pearl Harbor tour includes a visit to the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center exhibits and museums and a movie tour, and Navy boat ride to the USS Arizona Memorial. This is one of our most complete Pearl Harbor tours since it gives you a beautiful view from the air and an expertly-guided tour from the ground.
Take a trip back in time and see Pearl Harbor from the vantage point of Japanese fighter jets. Considering that our other popular Pearl Harbor tours will typically only offer the experience and view of the brave American heroes, this one is great at showing you the other side of the coin. Additionally, we will make sure that we allow plenty of time for exploring the breathtaking views available all-around Oahu. Come see why many people consider this to be the best Pearl Harbor tour available.

Tour Description
This is a great day for visitors from Maui, Kauai and Big Island to see the island of Oahu from both the ground and the sky.
Start your day with a scenic, quick flight into Honolulu. There are beautiful views outside your window throughout the flight. Depending on where you are traveling from, you will pass over islands of Molokai, Lanai and others.
Once on the ground on Oahu, itʻs a great time to head over for a morning helicopter flight (this is flexible). You will see some of the best sites across the southern part of the island and see the Arizona Memorial from above which is truly breathtaking.
Back on the ground, take your party over to see Pearl Harbor and start your Arizona Memorial Program at your ticket time. Our personal concierge will provide that to you before arriving in Oahu so you can plan your day just right.
Once you have explored all the sites at Pearl Harbor, you will have time to drive out to various other places across the island. See Punchbowl, Waikiki, Diamond Head Crater and historic Honolulu too.
You will return your rental car back to the airport after 8-10 hours on the island for your flight back.
In the notes please let us know if you want to extend your time on the island with earlier and later flights!
Please ask us here if you have any questions.

FLY-DRIVE PACKAGE FEATURES
Pearl Harbor Helicopter Flight
After providing an optimum experience on the ground, our day will climax with a 45-minute helicopter ride. Since this time needs to be handled with care, we will be sure to ask if there are any special nearby sites you wish to see during this time. However, one site that you will not want to miss is seeing the sunken USS Arizona from the sky.
Pearl Harbor National Monument
Your USS Arizona Memorial experience will start at the visitor center. Check in for tour times out to the Arizona Memorial. After a solemn and thought provoking experience at the memorial, spend some time at the Visitor Center browsing through informative displays and learn more about the events that propelled the US into WWII. There are snack areas and food vendors where you can grab a bite to eat and relax.
USS Arizona Memorial
After a brief film about the Japanese attack you’ll make the short trip to the memorial itself aboard a U.S. Navy launch. The memorial is built over the remains of the USS Arizona Memorial itself allowing visitors to honor and reflect on the heroes of that “Day of Infamy”. You can read the names of all 1,177 sailors and marines who were killed on December 7, 1941 etched into a towering marble wall. Don’t forget to look for the “Black Tears”, the oil that is still leaking onto the surface from the sunken remains to this day.
City Tour and Punchbowl National Cemetery
Go explore downtown Honolulu. This scenic drive, including a drive through Punchbowl National Cemetery, will allow you to discover the cemetery’s meticulously landscaped acres. Enjoy the beauty and honor of this serene area as you drive through and view the Courts of the Missing and the marble staircase leading to the statue of Lady Liberty that houses a chapel and the finely detailed mosaic maps of the Pacific Theaters of Operation in World War II, Korea and Vietnam.
Honolulu Historic Sites
You should also visit some Hawaiian sites on this tour, including the impressive Iolani Palace, the only royal palace on American soil. You’ll also see the 18 foot tall statue of King Kamehameha, the State Library and Archives, Honolulu Hale (City Hall), and the quaint Mission Houses as they all display the rich history of the Hawaiian Kingdom and the evolution of the original Hawaiian government.
