Honolulu Cultural & Theme Tours

Vanessa was fantastic as our tour guide. She engaged with everyone during the ride to and from Pearl Harbor. She was funny and very knowledgeable about the history of Pearl Harbor and Hawaii.

Interesting , quite moving Respectful to the fallen service men. Well organized and lines flow well to the memorial

Roland the driver from Hawaiian Concierge was great. The city tour was informative. He made me feel like a family member was driving me around. The National Park service gave exceptional solemn speech while we toured the USS Arizona

Our Drive/Tour guide (Hansome) was great. Very personable gift of knowledge about the Island. Pearl Harbor tour was pretty much self guided accept trip boat ride to the burial site. That area is so sacred and special. The site is very clean and well maintained.

Some comfy shoes as there is a lot of walking. Take water and snacks with you as we didn’t see anywhere for refreshments other than at the end. Found it a fun way to discover part of Honolulu. Some of the clues we wasn’t sure what we was suppose to do, but got the hang of it by the end. A fun couple of hours. Added bonus we got to visit the Palace.

Father and daughter took the Pearl Harbor tour it was good but if you want to do extra it is at extra cost. The tour Guide (sorry cannot remember name) picked up and dropped off at hotel. He was amazing, full of information and the drive around town was great with his insights of the area. Only trouble was phone number in our booking to contact them is no longer in use, so we called company direct and was fine.

It was fun way of seeing the sights and getting some history facts about the place. Some of the clues were a little to cryptic for us so we had to have help on occasions but it made it a fun few hours. It’s something you can do at your own pace

It’s noted in the directions, but important to note do not bring a purse. Our driver and guide, Vanessa, was very kind and knowledgeable.

Great option for going to Pearl Harbor for the day. They were very accommodating for coming and going.

They did a great job we were pleased we had a great day and a great time!

It was a great experience from start to finish. Dave was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed his conversation and great sense of humor. Phenomenal. We went on the deluxe Pearl Harbor excursion and Dave definitely prepared us for what to expect and how to navigate within the memorial. Awesome trip and memory.

Great communication and very accommodating. They updated our pickup to our hotel so we didn't have to walk to a nearby meeting point. The driver arrived on time, Perfect service for a Pearl Harbor trip!

I have been to this museum since I was a child, practically grew up in this place. It has grown, evolved to such an amazing place. Everyone should have Bishop museum on their to do list. From Kamaaina’s to All visitors- The best selection of Hawaiian books for adults and children. This is a place to be educated factually, not by a tour guide’s interpretation. Amazing artifacts- spend the day here. If you’re lucky to go here during events, hands down the experience has never ceases to amaze me. Iconic… unforgettable… Historic!

This was such a fun experience for 3 generations visiting Pearl Harbor. It was the highlight of our 13-year-old's trip to Honolulu.

Detailed stories told through aircraft that cannot be seen anywhere else. I would also recommend the food at the Hanger Cafe. Meals can be shared.

What a wonderful museum! The exhibits cover the history, culture, and nature of Hawaii. There are several separate buildings on the campus. I unfortunately missed the planetarium show, but I did visit the wayfinding exhibit in that building. It's really impressive how the Hawaiians developed navigation techniques to travel such vast distances over the ocean, relying only on what they could observe in the natural world.Hawaiian Hall and Pacific Hall are stunning. The aesthetics of the building interior on their own are beautiful. I love how the Hawaiian Hall was organized. One thing that was particularly creative and impactful was that they included a line from the native Hawaiian creation story on each of the display cases. It was a constant reminder that the Hawaiian culture was deep and flourishing well before European contact. The artifacts were varied and well-displayed. I found my visit to be very broadening. I knew nothing about native Hawaiian culture and history, and it really deepened my experience visiting the islands. I had a much greater appreciation for everything I visited and experienced after my time at the Bishop Museum.The Science Center was also interesting. Unlike the Hawaiian and Pacific Halls, the exhibits here are decidedly geared towards kids, but the signage contains a lot of information that is interesting to adults. I learned some interesting things about the evolution of endemic Hawaiian species, especially of birds.I also stopped by the visiting lego exhibit. It was spectacular. The theme was Hawaiian landmarks and nature. The creations were pretty amazing.The outdoor space is also really nice and perfect for a break. I visited the cafe on the grounds and got a rainbow shaved ice, which was excellent. They have a variety of items to choose from, including hot lunch items, snacks, and sweets.Don't miss this museum!
