    2. USS Arizona Memorial

      Pearl Harbor is currently operating their boat shuttles in a modified and limited capacity due to dock damages. Under normal circumstances we do secure the tickets and reservation times for all of our tours, however, with the current situation we try our best to secure what we can daily. Our guides do make sure that all guests get to experience the USS Arizona, but on some days we have to use the standby line to make that happen

    3. Pearl Harbor National Memorial

      Experience the emotional power of Pearl Harbor as you enter the World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument. Revisit the past and observe never-before-seen artifacts, replicas and media displays that explain the events and details leading up to and following the Pearl Harbor attack. Look across the harbor's blue waters at Ford Island, the center of the attack, and imagine the residents waking up on a sleepy Sunday morning to chaos and madness. Stand at ground zero of the infamous attack and gaze up at a sky once filled with enemy planes.

    Great driver will a lot of knowledge but the price for Pearl Harbor was expensive.

    Driver was fantastic. The pickup location was not great from the Hilton Hawaii village.

    Great Tour (minus the walk)

    Great tour and Chico was awesome! My only wish (and actually what I had anticipated) was that we would have been dropped off at the entrance of the Visitors Center. Instead we parked with the buses and had to walk from the lot. Okay by me, but a bit more difficult for my 85-year-old mom. She is quite mobile, but that tired her out. I could have driven and parked just as close. Pickup and drop off were flawless and the tea of the information given about the tour was easy to understand and follow.

    Best deal! Exactly what we hoped for.

    Nani was amazing! Great personality and shared a lot of relevant and interesting history of Hawaii and Pearl Harbor. Perfect guide! no cap! Husband wanted to see USS Arizona and cruise ship tour didn’t include the memorial. So glad I booked this instead . Exactly what we were looking for. Also Dorine was amazing answering all my questions via email! Thank you all!

    Pearl Harbor City Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Honolulu.

    How much does Pearl Harbor City Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $72 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Honolulu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Pearl Harbor City Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Honolulu is not rushed.

    Is Pearl Harbor City Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 92 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 5,268 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Honolulu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Pearl Harbor City Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Pearl Harbor City Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Pearl Harbor City Tour?

    +

    Around 1,844 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Honolulu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Honolulu and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Pearl Harbor City Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Honolulu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Honolulu?

    +

    Honolulu and greater Oahu run on early starts. Pearl Harbor memorial tickets release on a fixed schedule, the North Shore circle-island loop needs a full day, and the catamaran and snorkel runs off Waikiki fill fast in season. We rank on whether the operator secures Pearl Harbor entry themselves and how tight the circle-island itinerary really is. On Outty we rank every Honolulu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pearl Harbor, USS Arizona Memorial & Honolulu Deluxe Coach Tour, Oahu Small-Group Circle Island Tour with Turtle Snorkeling, Oahu: North Shore Tour with Waimea Waterfall. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Honolulu?

    +

    April to June and September to November, between the wet season and peak crowds. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Honolulu?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Pearl Harbor City Tour?

    +

    Included: Historic Downtown Honolulu: Drive by King Kamehameha Statue, Iolani Palace, State Capitol; Professional guide; and Pearl Harbor Visitor Center. Not included: Food and drinks (Snacks are available for purchase at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center at o; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Pearl Harbor City Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 8 listed pickup locations in and around Honolulu. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Pearl Harbor City Tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Pearl Harbor City Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Pearl Harbor City Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap; Transportation options are wheelchair accessible; and All areas and surfaces are wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Pearl Harbor City Tour if the weather is bad?

    +
