Overview
This is one of our most popular Pearl Harbor tours. This tour takes you to Pearl Harbor, one of the main historical landmarks in Hawaii. The USS Arizona Memorial is the most visited tourist destination in Hawaii. More than just an important historical monument, the Arizona Memorial is also the resting place for many American heroes who lost their lives during the Japanese attack on December 7, 1941. This tour is the perfect choice for those who want to see the Arizona Memorial and the “Mighty MO”, the Iowa-class Battleship Missouri, a decorated ship that was the scene of the final Japanese surrender at the end of WWII.
This small group tour has only 14 passengers and includes all your tickets for USS Arizona Memorial and USS Missouri Battleship. You do not need to go early morning, and we also take you on a short drive through the Historical Honolulu downtown tour and show you the heart of the state of Hawaii.

We have reserved Arizona Memorial Ticket for you and it is included for you in this tour (please read our disclaimer about the USS Arizona Memorial ticket). Therefore, you do not need to worry about an Arizona Memorial ticket; because of this, you do not need to go early in the morning (5:30 am) and wait in line behind thousands of other people to see if you can get a ticket for the Arizona Memorial.
