Appreciated the flexibility in scheduling with our guide (we started at 8am) and the earlier start meant no lines. Noelani gave us lots of great info o walking us around the USS Missouri and during our drives.

We chose a private tour because we had limited time, needed to get picked up at hotel with all of our luggage (incl golf bags) and dropped off at airport at end of tour. If we did it again, I would choose the same private tour and request the same tour guide! Viator was quick to respond to all my questions throughout the process of selection/booking/confirming. Our tour guide Noelani was exceptional! She arrived early, was extremely personable and had a beautiful comfortable Mercedes Sprinter van. Noelani was extremely knowledgeable about the history, site and is a native of Honolulu. Pearl Harbor, a National Historic Landmark, was so much more than we expected! Feelings of pride and sadness, as we honored the memories of soldiers who fought on the Pacific front of World War II. Ending our visit exploring the surrender deck of the USS Missouri Memorial, or “Mighty Mo," where the treaty ending WWII was formally signed (so cool). But it didn’t stop there. Noelani took us around the hillsides and town of Honolulu, pointing out landmarks along the way. She drove through the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, Punchbowl crater – a beautiful veterans cemetery, pristine grounds and a sweeping view of Diamond Head to the glistening bays of Pearl Harbor. We can’t say enough about this experience. Thank you Viator and Noelani, we’ll never forget…

Billy Crowe was an outstanding tour guide. As a former park ranger and professional diver who has explored the USS Arizona, he brought unique insights that made the experience even more engaging. His deep knowledge never felt overwhelming—instead, he shared compelling stories and tailored the tour to our interests and questions. He also provided us insights into what to check out first and how we should position ourselves to avoid crowds at the different sites we toured. My husband and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide and having a tour guide (especially one as great as Billy) was definitely worth it.

The private tour with Yolanda was wonderful and more than expected. However, the communication prior to the tour was nonexistent. Several attempts to reach Viatour went unanswered and we weren't sure we were going to picked up until a phone call at the last minute.
