Excellent and a must for any history buff. It was really moving to see diesel still bubbling to the surface even after 70 years. More

A must do in Oahu. We took the public bus from Waikiki but is a bit of a stretch and somewhat infrequent. You really feel a sense of history while here and can't help but thinking of those brave souls you paid the ultimate price for our freedom. More

Though I understand the historical significance it really was like visiting a mausoleum. Definitely worth paying a visit at least once, but it is more a place for reflection. More

I wanted to visit Hawaii for the longest time because of my desire to see the Arizona Memorial. I can't see how any visitor would be disappointed with this beautiful, tearful shrine to the men and women who died at Pearl Harbor years ago. It is a moving and touching experience. More

Paid for a guided tour. It was well worth the money. A place of reverence and respect. I do not recommend taking young children. More

25 minute poignant video and a short boat ride to Memorial. We went in offseason and had to wait 2.5 hours for tour. Recommended to get times in advance. Lucky to get parking in 20 minutes as there is not enough spaces. Take a bus if possible. More
