There are so many sites to see and visit throughout Hawaii, especially on the lovely island of Oahu. From pristine beaches to historic sites, Oahu is packed with things to do, and your group is going to have quite the vacation. One of the sites that is a must for your group to visit is Pearl Harbor, the site of the tragic attacks of December 7, 1941 and the place where you can visit museums, monuments, and memorials that bring to life the tragic history of the harbor. During your trip, discover this historic site on a Pearl Harbor Group Tour.
Throughout Pearl Harbor, you will encounter so many great things to explore, beginning with the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center. Here, you’re met with a view of the harbor and exhibits that include authentic war memorabilia and wartime relics that date all way back to World War II. Learn about the events that led to the tragic attacks and the United State entry into the war, while viewing a plethora of items from before the attacks, as well as items that were recovered following the surprise bombing.
As you make your way through the Visitor Center and eventually to the main attractions of Pearl Harbor, your group will learn all about the history of the harbor, and the impacts that the attacks had on Hawaii and the United States Military. At each of the main museums and memorials, you will find different pieces of history and have the chance to explore vessels that actually served in the war. Your Pearl Harbor Group Tour can include tours of the following museums:
- USS Bowfin Submarine
- USS Missouri Battleship
- Pacific Aviation Museum
The attraction that most visitors are looking forward to the most is the USS Arizona Memorial, the iconic structure that rest above the wreckage of the downed battleship. With a limited supply of tickets each day, boarding the USS Arizona Memorial is reserved for a selected number of visitors, helping to ensure the integrity of the structure. Inside the memorial, the names of the brave heroes who perished in the attacks are found, giving you the chance to honor the fallen sailors who are forever entombed within the battleship. This is a very somber part of a visit to Pearl Harbor, one that is a powerful experience for your group.
Pearl Harbor Group Tours share the tragic story of the attacks on Pearl Harbor and one of the defining moments in Hawaiian history, as well as United States history. This is sure to be one of the very best experiences that your group has while visiting Hawaii, and one activity that everyone is sure to love.
