Very Somber and a lot of History here. I would reccomend getting the headsets. Jamie Lee Curtis narrates the entire visit to the Arizona Memorial and it is a lot of information to take in if you try to read all the info boards. I woulod reccomend getting there EARLY, we had the 8am tour and at 7am the line... More

The USS Arizona Memorial is a "must-do" while in Oahu. This is a part of our history in so many ways. The free memorial tour includes a 23-minute historical video besides the quick boat trip to and from the memorial. A few notes: you cannot take any bags into the memorial (no purses, camera bags, diaper bags, etc) - they... More

A must do in Oahu. We took the public bus from Waikiki but is a bit of a stretch and somewhat infrequent. You really feel a sense of history while here and can't help but thinking of those brave souls you paid the ultimate price for our freedom. More

Though I understand the historical significance it really was like visiting a mausoleum. Definitely worth paying a visit at least once, but it is more a place for reflection. More
