They may want to have a rain poncho in case they need it to sit on. For the boat ride to the Arizona memorial
I don’t know why I thought this would be a guide tour through Pearl Harbor but it isn’t. Nice ride over guide takes you to entrance gets you in, gives guidance then leaves.
Great experience! Got to visit the USS Arizona! Also our driver Kanoe was able to pick us up on time!
Honestly, this tour blew me away. I knew Pearl Harbor would be emotional but I didn’t expect to learn so much about Hawaii’s own history too. Our tour driver, Kanoe, made the whole experience smooth and meaningful. I left feeling not just informed but moved. It gave me a whole new perspective on Hawaii and its past.If you’re even thinking about doing this tour, just go for it. Totally worth it! Mahalo Kanoe!
It was a waste of time to book this tour. They were 45 minutes late and all they do it take you inside the gate and hand you tickets to get on the ferry. It would have been easier to just buy the tickets ourselves.
