Early Access Pearl Harbor, USS Arizona & Historic Honolulu Tour
Overview
Visit Pearl Harbor and have access to the USS Arizona Memorial.
We arrive early—before the big motorcoaches and crowds—so you can experience this powerful site in a more peaceful setting. Your guide personally walks you into Pearl Harbor National Park, giving a full orientation to help you navigate the site with confidence. You'll have ~3 hours for a self-guided visit, including the museums and boat ride to the USS Arizona Memorial (Tickets First Come First Serve). This is the only tour that also includes a guided walk through Historic Downtown Honolulu, visiting ʻIolani Palace, King Kamehameha Statue, and more. Small group (max. 14) for a comfortable, respectful experience.

- Early Access Pearl Harbor tours begin at approximately 6:30 AM. Additional departures (around 8:15 AM and 10:15 AM) may be added when the early departure sells out. If early access is full, guests will be notified and placed on a later departure time.
- Access to the USS Arizona Memorial is controlled by the National Park Service and the U.S. Navy and may be limited or unavailable due to operational or capacity restrictions. Daniels Hawaii facilitates access to the USS Arizona Memorial either via boat tickets or the official standby process; however, ticket availability is controlled by the National Park Service and cannot be guaranteed. If boat access or standby entry is not granted, this is beyond our control and does not qualify for a refund.
