5.00What a great daytrip from Maui to Oahu. The Pearl Harbor tour was phenomenal. Definitely bucket list material. Polynesian Adventure did a great job making and organizing trip details, flight arrangements, food was excellent. Our guide Chelcie was a wealth of information and provided great history and tips on things not to miss. She kept us on track. We definitely recommend!

5.00Our guide Frank was very knowledgeable and a great tour guide. It was great to be able to visit each site and not have to navigate the traffic and parking. He made sure we got into the buildings/areas that we needed to go and was clear on when to meet back at the van to head to the next area. It was a great tour and we had a wonderful time!
Once in a lifetime experience

5.00This Pearl Harbor day trip from Maui to Oahu was an unforgettable experience. Everything was very well organized from start to finish, which made the day smooth and stress-free. Pearl Harbor was incredibly moving and interesting, and it was amazing to learn more about such an important part of history. A special thank you to our guide and driver Ray, who truly made the experience even better. He was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable, and he made sure we were comfortable throughout the whole trip. His driving was safe and smooth, and he shared interesting information along the way that made the journey even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Hawaii. It was a perfect mix of history, beautiful views, and excellent service. Thank you, Ray, for making the day so memorable!

5.00Our original Pearl Harbor excursion was cancelled due to the Kona rainstorm. We really hated to miss out and not see it so we decided to book another excursion yo fly back to Oahu to see it. Very happy we did!
Long day but so worth it.

5.00While it’s an early and long day, you see so much. You still move through the different sites pretty quickly so plan to move quick and read fast. The lunch provided is very good and filling. Chelsea, our driver and guide, dis a good job of explaining what was going to happen at each location and helped you make the most of the visit.

3.00We flew in from Maui, directions to meet the bus at the airport was very. Several people were trying to figure where we were supposed to go. Once we figured it out we were basically in the middle of nowhere. The bus picking us up was supposed to be there at 7:15AM and finally showed up almost an hour late. The driver of the bus was great but had to shorten our stops a little to make up the lost time. Over all not really happy with this trip
Great tour company!
