Perfect day at Pearl knowledgable - Our guide Noelani was just awesome! She was very knowledgable, kept us on schedule and was flexible at the same time with what we wanted to do. We just adopted her into our Indiana family. The Bowfin is a must see along with Big Mo great to see how our service men and women lived onboard the ships. The Arizona is always something special to see!

Big Mo - A floating city - This is a really cool ship to visit if you have time. The size of it was impressive. You can pretty much visit every part of the ship, crew quarter, mess, control decks, guns, etc... Plan for at least an hour or more to do this right and not rush it. I would highly recommend this tour.

A must have experience! - Our trip started with our amazing guide Noelani. The history, her knowledge and her passion was the best part of our trip to Pearl Harbor. Our tour of the Harbor was solemn, heartbreaking, and yet beautiful. Everyone from everywhere should get to experience this at least once. Our tour continued to the USS Missouri. Noelani helped our Mom pushing her around the ship in a wheelchair so she could share in the experience which also allowed my sister and I to be able to see and do things we wouldn’t have been able to do without her. Hands down I would recommend her and this tour any day, every day. The absolute best experience. Thank you Noelani.

Great tour - Noelani was wonderful and shared her amazing families stories which really brought perspective to the Island culture. While she had to drop us off at the locations she briefed us on all we need to do when and how. Much more personal experience then a general tour bus but consider it more of a private driver than a private tour. Either way loved this event and would highly recommend.

Excellent - This was an amazing tour with our excellent guide Noelani. Her knowledge was very impressive. We learnt so much from her that we didn’t know and we are history buffs! The tour itself was wonderful and poignant and the length was perfect. Would definitely recommend this tour and guide.

Fantastic and Marvelous - Fantastic. The tour was super smooth. Noelani our guide was superb. Tina was marvelous for arranging all the meet up and pickup at AC HOTEL BY MARRIOTT. Please let them know. And be on time for pickup. Oh by the way regarding the visit on Arizona and Mo. Do not bring bags. Passports in side pockets. Handphones too. Camera no issue. Thats it. I really recommend this tour company. Seriously you cannot go wrong. And I was not wrong. By the way I had a massive gout attack the tour guide was very helpful and accomodating. We had a truly wonderful experience with Noelani. Oh also when she played the story about the ipod on the Japs attack and how it lead was a very educational history piece. Very long piece of history. Oh yes go to the Mo and hear what the Mo guide explains. Fantastic and wonderful trip. Thank you Tina and Noelani and staffs who arrange for us this tour and accomodate us despite 2 of us only. Thumbs up.

Venues Interesting and worth it- paying for private guide not worth it .-disappointed - The Pearl Harbor and USS Missouri were excellent and very interesting. What a way to learn about our history.
We did those two all by ourselves.
We were dropped off at Pearl Harbor by our guide - and took a small boat ride across to see the museum / memorial.
Then when we came back we saw a 20
Minute move. It was excellent!
We walked through 2 museums with Ph story and memorabilia.
We met our tour guide outside and she took us to the USS Missouri. Again we were dropped off and got a tour by the USS Missouri. Our guide was not the best and talked to us like we were babies. I would have preferred the guide we paid for to give us the tour. We walked along the ship and saw where the treaty was signed, as well as other interesting things.
Our private guide came on after the tour and gave us a tour of the lower level of the ship where the officers lived, and daily life activities were performed.
We got back in the van( private tour so just the 2 of us) - went to the punch bowl cemetery and drove around.
My disappointment with this tour was that our guide really was not that involved. I wish she would have done the whole tour instead of driving us and dropping us off. It never said in the description that she would not be our guide for the whole thing.

Disappointing - I have always used Viator in the past and have always had five star service. This “private” tour is the worst tour that I have been on. We also had to wait while they shuttled some other people and put back in our two infant car seats. If you are traveling with small kids check ahead of time what you are permitted to bring. I don’t feel this tour is properly advertised.
