Tour Overview
Embark on a unique journey that combines a guided ground tour of Pearl Harbor and Honolulu with an exciting 45-minute helicopter ride over O’ahu. This tour offers a deep dive into history, offering stunning aerial views and an up-close look at iconic landmarks.
Start your day with a hotel pickup from Waikīkī, and head straight to the Arizona Memorial, a poignant structure that spans the battleship sunk on December 7, 1941. This site remains a national monument and the final resting place for over 1,100 courageous Sailors and Marines.
You’ll have plenty of time to explore the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center, its grounds, and museums before boarding a boat for a solemn visit to the Arizona Memorial. Following this, you’ll visit the Battleship Missouri, affectionately known as the “Mighty Mo.” This immense ship is where World War II officially ended when Japan signed the surrender on its decks. Be prepared to lose yourself in the vast expanse of this historic battleship.
The next part of your adventure takes you to a helicopter tour of Honolulu. Soar over Pearl Harbor and see the Arizona Memorial from above, along with breathtaking aerial views of the National Cemetery of the Pacific at Punchbowl Crater, Downtown Honolulu, Waikīkī, and the iconic Diamond Head.
