The driver had a lot of information and was funny. Unfortunately it was raining so touring the city we did not get out of the bus. The palace was not open due to Covid. Pearl Harbor was interesting and the Park Ranger on the Arizona Memorial was very informative and you could tell he liked his job and willing to share his information.
It was a nice relaxing boat ride and they guarantee that either you’ll see a whale or else they will give you another tour at no cost. The crew was friendly and offered a selection of drinks along the way. We really enjoyed it and definitely recommend this fun experience for the whole family!!!!!
We had perfect weather and smooth seas. A blow was sighted soon after we left the harbor. We followed two different mothers with calves. Another bonus was a large group of spinner dolphins who played around the catamaran as we returned to the harbor. It us something I will never forget!!
Wow! We saw sharks as soon as we got into the water!! This was such an amazing experience and I’m so happy that we went with this crew!! Crew made us feel safe & boat ride was amazing as we saw some dolphins and a whale! 11/10!!
It was extremely beneficial to have an audio giving details and information while we walked around Pearl Harbor! The survivors commentary were especially impactful & moving!! Excellent & necessary addition!!
