Hangar Guided Tour

When visiting the Aviation Museum as part of a training program for the university's law faculty, I was guided by Moko Kamiya. I am a university professor who researches war, and Moko's guide was very high quality, offering explanations from various perspectives such as history, geography, culture, weapons development, science and technology, psychology, and journalism, making it a valuable learning resource even for experts in each field. Despite the advanced content, Moko explains it in the simplest possible terms, making her an extremely effective guide for learning. As a university faculty member, I strongly recommend Moko-san's Wednesday morning 10:00 Japanese guided tour to all learners, not just university students.

I participated in Moko's tour. The very clear explanation allowed me to view the aircraft on display inside with a concrete image of how they were used and what history they followed. The descriptions of the Zero fighter and the Type 97 carrier fighter were impressive, covering everything from its development and design in Japan to how it was used in the war, and how it was utilized in America after the war. The exhibits focus on the victorious nation, the United States, but Moko's commentary also included explanations focusing on Japan, which was content that we, as Japanese people, could relate to. If you visit the Aviation Museum from Japan, I strongly recommend participating in the Japanese tour starting at 10 AM on Wednesday.

I participated in a tour with Moko-san, the Japanese guide, at the aviation museum. Not only did you explain the aircraft in detail, but you also carefully explained the evolution of the exhibits and the historical background, which deepened my understanding of the Pacific War significantly. The narration was so captivating, the time flew by. Japanese travelers who are coming soon, please try to go on a Wednesday when Moko is there!

I participated in a guided tour in Japanese. I learned a lot from the knowledge of our guide MOKO. When you have commentary in Japanese, it looks completely different from watching it on your own. I'm really glad I took part. Currently, we only offer Japanese language guides once a week, but we would like to see more of them.

Hidden Gem among the more popular museum attractions in Pearl Harbor. We had a fantastic family experience and can highly recommend!! Bernhard

I enjoyed Moko-san's Japanese tour because it was meaningful. It was a good opportunity to think about war and peace. Moko-san has only two sessions every Wednesday at 10:00 and 11:30, and he seems to be free at 10:00, so he recommends it. I was very lucky that I booked it on a Wednesday.

On a visit to the Pearl Harbor Aviation Memorial. The Japanese guide was very good The only regret is that he only gets one day a week. I came all the way from Japan. You can watch the same exhibit. The attendant who will explain Attach or no is 100 times more understandable. At least give me a few more days!

I was guided by Japanese guide Moko. I was able to hear many deep stories that I could not know by looking at the exhibition myself, and I was able to understand not only the airplane but also the background of history. Since I was the only participant that day, they explained it to me in detail beyond the time, and it was a very fulfilling time. Japanese guided tours are held every Wednesday. Recommended for both first-time visitors and those who want to take the time to learn.

I learned a lot from the information and various stories that I did not know about the war. It made me think again about war and peace. It was good to see so many airplanes on display. I want to go again.

Thank you to our guide, MOKO! The explanation was easy to understand and the talk was interesting and the tour was very enjoyable! I'd ask for it when you visit again, and recommend it to friends and family. Thank You So Much
