Pearl Harbor day tour
Great tour with driver, Rey! Very accommodating and knowledgeable, my wife and I had an amazing day of it!

Kimoke’o was the best tour guide!
This was a complete Pearl Harbor experience! You will not be disappointed. The bus was clean and modern…super comfortable. There is a bathroom on the bus…important if traveling with kids. The driver and tour guide was prompt and we stayed in schedule the entire day. Kimeke’o was the best! Great historian and storyteller. Funny, entertaining and heartwarming humor. My whole family enjoyed it — including my 9 and 10 year old kids. Great tour of all the important landmarks you would want to see at Pearl Harbor. Kimeke’o made it a super day!

Best tour
Best tour bus tour I have ever taken. It was interesting and educational

Great family experience
We had a great family experience visiting Pearl Harbor with Polynesian Adventure. The tour was well organized from start to finish, and our guide was friendly (Lehua was outstanding driver and tour guide!!!) knowledgeable, and made the day both interesting and enjoyable. It was a meaningful experience for our whole family and a great way to visit such an important historic site. The only downside was the food. Unfortunately, it was pretty disappointing and definitely could have been better, especially considering the overall quality of the tour. Aside from that, we really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend Polynesian Adventure to families visiting Pearl Harbor.
