About Roberts Hawaii – Stars & Stripes Tour
Walk through one of the most important chapters in American history on a full-day visit to Pearl Harbor and historic Honolulu. The experience begins at the Pearl Harbor Visitor's Center, where personal memorabilia, historic photographs, battle artifacts and real film footage from the attack on December 7th, 1941 bring the events of that day into vivid focus.
Continue by boat to the USS Arizona Memorial, built above the remains of the sunken battleship and the final resting place of many of its crewmen. The tour also includes the Battleship Missouri, where you can learn about the ship's remarkable history and stand on the deck where General MacArthur accepted the surrender of Japan.
After leaving Pearl Harbor, the tour follows a narrated drive through Honolulu with views of the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific at Punchbowl, the Hawaii State Capitol, Honolulu City Hall, Iolani Palace, Kawaiahao Church and the King Kamehameha Statue.
