Okay

This was okay if you had extensive time to listen to the guide. But the site has good written explanations at each point which are very good; it takes a full day to see all that Pearl Harbor has to offer without even starting the guide. We’d never have made it thru if we listened to it. The virtual reality was fine, but not exceptional. Expensive for minimal usage.

Pearl Harbor January 14, 2024

It was surreal to be in the same area as the surrender papers were signed and to see the remains of the USS Arizona. So much history there. Even my 11 yr old daughter enjoyed it.

Don’t bother with the deluxe combo

The VR portion of this combo is a waste of time and money. Employee didn’t bother explaining how to adjust headset. Picture was blurry so switched headset and the next one was only slightly better. Very short program. Stick to the audio tour.

Terrible Service by TripAdvisor

Your people should be present at the site to help facilitate the program. We paid you for a non service! No one was there to help us and as a result, we were not allowed to board the vessel that takes people to the Arizona! A very sad waste of time and money! Others that use your service, need to know our terrible experience!

Book via government site

Don’t book via trip advisor- book through the government website for recreation because it is the only way to reserve a time for the boat out to the USS Arizona Memorial. We booked through trip advisor and had to wait an hour and a half on standby with our three teenagers to get out there. Otherwise Pearl Harbour was well worth the visit- educational and moving.

Pearl Harbor

Pearl Harbor was an amazing experience. The price was less than anything else I could find. Afterwards I still think you made a mistake by giving it at such a low price. Even with paying for our own transportation it was still less expensive than any of the tours offered by the hotel or other online.
