  • An absolute wonderful tour
    An absolute wonderful tour

    fungster October 2024

    An absolute wonderful tour company. Our driver Lola was an absolute gem and perky all the way through. We did the Ultimate Pearl Harbor package which included the air museum so unfortually we didn't get to drive back with our original tour bus but we were told that a second bus will be waiting for us since our package goes longer …

  • Pearl Harbour humbling experience
    Pearl Harbour humbling experience

    Chris G October 2024

    Collected on time by Kimi, who enthusiastically gave us a great running commentary on the way with lots of interesting local facts. Pearl Harbour gave a real feel for what happened there at the start of WWII and the running up to it with what was happening in Europe at the time and the distrust of foreign governments and leaders. 5* experience and value for money.

We learned so much about the city and felt very prepared for our time at Pearl Harbor. He had so many fun facts and just has a lovely spirit! Thanks Marlon for a wonderful day in paradise. 🤙 …
