Pearl Harbor was on my bucket list. This was by far my favorite excursion while we were in Hawaii. It's part of our history and I'm so glad I was finally able to pay my respects to those who sacrificed so much and paid the ultimate price.

A very moving experience that you cannot miss if your visiting Honalulu. Good city tour although it lasted a few hours longer than I was expecting . Guide very funny and informative.

Wonderful trip. Tour guide Chris is a wonderful person giving a lot of introduction for attraction places, coordinating schedule well.

Seamless booking and tour experience, our Tourguide Tra’ was awesome and top notch! Highly recommend

Our tour started at 7am, so the lunch wasn’t included. Our tour guide was awesome.
