Great day! Our guide, MC Finny, was entertaining and informative. Pearl Harbour is a must see and this tour is a great way to do that. Well organized and perfect time frame to visit the site without being rushed.

Out tour guide Nani Popolo was excellent, informative and has a great sense of humor! I am ex military and the tour was concise and so spot on, I believe it is a must for all people to see!

Ernie was friendly and informative about the subject. We had such a good tour because of his attentive and professional service. We would definitely recommend him and the company.

Follow the directions of the booking. Do not bring bags with you. US Navy does not allow them on-premises. You will have to store them for a fee.

Fantastic way to see the island. We had a really memorable flight and experience
