About Pearl Harbor and Honolulu City Tour
Spend a half day exploring two important sides of Oahu: the history of Pearl Harbor and the landmarks of downtown Honolulu. With departures from Waikiki and Ko Olina, the tour begins at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center, where exhibits and a documentary introduce the events of December 7, 1941 before you continue by Navy shuttle to the USS Arizona Memorial.
After time at Pearl Harbor, the route shifts into Honolulu for a look at some of the city’s most recognizable historic sites. You’ll pass the King Kamehameha Statue, Iolani Palace, the State Capitol and other landmarks while your guide shares stories that connect Hawaiian royalty, local history and the island’s role in World War II.
The tour also includes a stop at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, set inside Punchbowl Crater, before returning to your hotel. It is a compact way to combine Pearl Harbor with a broader look at Honolulu in one outing.
