Tour in the comfort of an air-conditioned Mercedes minivan while gaining insights into World War II and Hawaiian history. The itinerary also includes a tour of Honolulu City, featuring a drive through the Business District and Chinatown, along with stops at the Iolani Palace, the King Kamehameha Statue, and the Hawaii State Capitol Building.

Excellent tour - Eva was amazing! Super knowledgeable and kind, very perceptive to our needs and fun to hang out with! She went above and beyond to show us a good time. Pearl Harbor was a sobering experience and the rest of the tour was incredible.

Great tour with Ama - AMA delivered a fabulous tour from getting us to the USS Arizona Memorial with tickets while giving us an informative tour from a native born Hawaiian perspective. Then on to a Honolulu city tour with a great personal touch. We were extremely pleased. We asked to be dropped off at Wakiki vBeach and Ama directed us to a great place, Dukes for lunch and then we went to the beach and later did more exploring/ shoppingh

Not worth the money - This tour couldn't have ended sooner. Ama was very responsive and communicative before the tour. That's about where it ends. Driving was erratic. No cup holders in the back seat. Went to Pearl Harbor (which was amazing and worth visiting), and when we got back in the van, it smelled like weed, and he started asking us the same questions over and over. Not sure what was going on. We were both annoyed and couldn't wait to get back to our hotel. We went by the Punchbowl, and he didn't even stop for information or a photo. He was busy talking about his coin flipping business. For $466, I wish we had just taken a taxi to Pearl Harbor and skipped this "tour." We couldn't wait to get out of the car. Money wasted.
