About Self-Guided Audio Driving Tour in Oahu Hawaii Day Tours

A large seaport in Hawaii, Pearl Harbor is flanked by mountains on three sides and faces the sea towards another. The harbor is famous around the world due to the bombing of Pearl Harbor, a well-knowned surprise attack launched by the Japanese Navy on the US Pacific Fleet during the Second World War. Now the US government has designated the place as a base for education in patriotism. You may visit the Hall of Historical Exhibition, Memorial of Fleet, and Memorial of Aviation. WWII armaments align the embankments, where many valuable objects from the war are also on display.

The tour requires a one-time purchase for lifetime access, including all updates. There are no additional entry fees for the audio guide itself, but some attractions may charge admission separately.
