Reviews Pearl Harbor National Memorial
“It was an informative trip. There was an issue with getting decent food versus snacks at the store. You had to pay $8 to go into the submarine to go get food from the food trucks. Crazy!”
“Driver was excellent. Our only problem was with the Park Service and their lack of directions on how to get on the boat.”
“Excellent tour. Great driver. He had a good narrative but wasn't too chatty. Very nice bus. Very comfortable.”
“Our guide was knowledgeable and entertaining!”
