“Our tour was 9/13 with guide Nevin and driver John. Nevin was exceptional! We learned so much about the land, culture and history of each stop and more! The highlight was snorkeling with the sea turtles! Our lifeguard was perfect and me as a 1st-timer, I felt like a pro with his guidance! He was so laid back yet made sure we were safe 1st and they made certain we all got a chance to see the turtles. This was definitely the best part of our entire trip. I love that we had the smaller group too (it’s not a giant tour bus). Highly recommend this tour!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4,254 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $69

Review of E Noa’s Pearl Harbor City Tour, with historic Honolulu, USS Arizona Memorial access, practical tips, costs, and drawbacks.

“I hate to write this, but felt the description for this excursion was misleading. Our driver was awesome, no doubt. Knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Had plenty of interesting commentary leading up to the memorial, through the city. The guided tour does stop however at the memorial. Rides on the Arizona are not guaranteed, and the cost of this excursion doesn’t include any of the add-ons at the site. Although we loved our guide, this amounted to a glorified Uber ride that we could’ve accomplished much cheaper on our own.”
