Q&A

Q: What's the best time of year to do the Battleships of WWII tour? Any weather issues to be aware of?

A: I'd recommend going between November and April. The weather is usually milder then, which makes the tour more enjoyable. Just remember, it can sometimes rain in Hawaii, so it's smart to check the forecast and bring a light jacket. Also, the seas can get rougher during the summer months.

Q: Is there an age limit for this tour? I want to take my kids!

A: There’s no strict age limit, but the content can be heavy for younger kids. I'd say kids around 10 and up would understand and appreciate it the most. Just make sure they can handle some emotional moments, especially at the memorial.

Q: How do the transportation logistics work for this tour? Is parking easy at the airport?

A: All the transportation is included in the tour price, so you won’t have to worry about parking or driving. They handle everything from the flight to the tour vehicle, which is super convenient! Just make sure to arrive at Lihue Airport with enough time for check-in.

Looking to gift an unforgettable experience: Battleships of WWII Tour!

I’m thinking about gifting the Battleships of WWII tour in Pearl Harbor to my dad. He’s always been really into history, particularly WWII, and I think he’d love the chance to see the USS Arizona Memorial. I just want to make sure it’s worth the price and if the included flight from Kauai is really convenient. Anyone done this tour? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Anyone know if the USS Arizona Memorial has limited access?

I’m planning to book the Battleships of WWII tour for my history-loving friend and want to know if there’s any limited access to the USS Arizona Memorial itself. I don’t want to miss out on that part of the experience. Does anyone have details on how it works?
