This full-day bus tour lasts about 8 to 10 hours and includes visits to three major attractions on Oahu. The tour begins with pickup in the Waikiki area and air-conditioned transport. The first stop is Pearl Harbor Historic Sites Visitor Center, where visitors spend two hours viewing exhibits about the December 7, 1941 attack and watching a 23-minute documentary. The tour includes a 10-minute boat ride to the USS Arizona Memorial, where guests see the sunken battleship, oil droplets called "The Tears of the Arizona," and the Remembrance Wall with 1,177 names of crew members. Next, the tour stops at Dole Plantation for about one hour.
