Has anyone done the NCL after cruise tour to Pearl Harbor? Would you recommend it?

We could actually see Pearl Harbor the week before our cruise but are thinking we should leave it until after the cruise. With a 10 pm flight we have a lot of time to fill. Ending the tour at the airport is so convenient.

Even so we will still have too much time at the airport.

We did. There were two tour options, we chose the longer one. We still didn’t see everything there was to see at the memorial, though we saw quite a bit of it. We chose the tour for convenience, but in hindsight I wish we would have rented a car and spent the whole day there. I was worried we wouldn’t get tickets to see the Pearl Harbour memorial itself, but I know many people do this tour on their own and still manage to get tickets.

It’s an amazing place.

Anyone planning a visit to Pearl Harbor should be aware of the fact that the Arizona Memorial, which is the number one attraction for most people, has been closed to visitors for months due to structural damage to the boat loading dock.

 

As of the latest update the Memorial is expected to reopen this fall, but the date has not been set.

We have done this tour, choosing it to see Pearl Harbor and for the convenience of having our luggage on the tour bus and the eventual drop off at the airport for our flight home.

 

We were pleased with the Pearl Harbor part..felt we had plenty of time and our tour bus driver already had Arizona Memorial tickets for us. We were very lucky in that our shuttle boat to the Arizona Memorial was the last shuttle boat of the morning..the shuttle was shut down right after our tour due to choppy water conditions in the harbor.

 

The following city tour was less impressive, although our driver had a good line of chatter and lots of information. Towards the end of the tour there were a number of hotel drop offs, but then our driver still had some time, so we drove around the north shore for a bit more sightseeing, before being dropped off at the airport in plenty of time for our evening flight.
