About Polynesian Adventure Tours - Maui to Oahu World War II Heroes Deluxe Pearl Harbor Tour
Fly from Maui to Oahu for a full Pearl Harbor day with Polynesian Adventure Tours, visiting key World War II sites and historic memorials.
Begin on Maui and cross to Oahu for a full day devoted to the stories, ships and aircraft of Pearl Harbor. After an early morning flight from Kahului Airport to Honolulu, continue to Hawaii's No. 1 historic attraction for one of the most complete Pearl Harbor experiences available.
Your visit starts at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center, where World War II exhibits, historic memorabilia and a brief documentary introduce the events of December 7, 1941. From there, board a Navy shuttle boat to the Arizona Memorial, built above the sunken battleship and dedicated to the servicemen who lost their lives during the attack.
The journey continues aboard the USS Bowfin submarine before crossing to Ford Island, an active Navy base, to explore the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum. See aircraft and wartime displays, including a Japanese Zero Fighter Plane and a seaplane hangar that survived the attack on Pearl Harbor.
The day culminates aboard the USS Missouri, known as the "Mighty Mo." The battleship served from World War II through Desert Storm and became the setting for the formal Japanese surrender to the Allies in 1945.
