Very informative. We learned facts we haven't heard before. Our visit was very peaceful and respectful. Sad and beautiful area at the same time.

No need to book the $100+ tour through your hotel. This attraction is free! Ferry tickets to the Arizona were available on arrival, though this may have just been lucky. Would recommend that you pop in early during your Oahu stay in case tickets for that day aren't available. You'd have time to come back.

Very powerful experience... If you're not with a chartered tour group, be sure to get there early. Tickets for the Memorial were sold out by 8:30 a.m., when we arrived. Fortunately, we had pre-ordered tickets for 10:00 a.m. through our tour provider. I also recommend the U.S.S. Missouri guided tour. It was really cool to see the Surrender Deck.

Loved that it was free to enter. Lots of people were paying thinking they had to in order to see everything but you only pay if you are going inside the ships.

An absolute must! Great tour to Pearl Harbor taking in the USS Arizona, USS Missouri, and Bowfin sub. as well as museums in the area.

This is a truly sobering experience. To stand on this memorial above the ill-fated USS Arizona and see it now in such peace and knowing that hundreds of men are entombed below is a vivid reminder of a war the world should never forget. Get there early as the queues can be rather long.

Amazing experience to see where it all happened. I used the audio service on the tour so I could learn more about the history.

Was worth going & seeing & paying respect. The "tears/blood" was haunting & moving, but the coral & life that has made it their home, brought the beauty to the sadness. Moving & Surreal.

The USS Arizona Memorial was something spectacular to visit. It is a very moving area after hearing details about the Pearl Harbor attack. Visitors there are very respectful of the area. Many Japanese/American veterans visit year round. It is incredible the amount of information that I learned in an hour. I booked the Pearl Harbor tour through robertshawaii.com. Once you... More
