Very highly recommend Finny and Karma Tours in Honolulu!!

John was a great tour guide, he was able to engage with the people on the bus and he made the experience more enjoyable. Thank you!

Both the Arizona and Bowfin exhibits and museums were fantastic. The Arizona memorial moves me to gratitude and sadness at the same time. That’s a confluence of emotions that I rarely experience at the same time. The SS Bowfin is an experience I will remember for the remainder of my life. As significant consumer of submarine literature, both historical and fiction, being in the sub with excellent narration, helped me, with my own eyes, the see what many authors have described. Not only did it connect a name to an object, it placed the object in a context of space, motion, sequence, and, most important, purpose that a written page cannot accomplish. Needless to say, I enjoyed my day at Pearl Harbor enormously.

The entire experience should be a must to for all Americans to see how people who served gave their lives for our freedom.

Had a great experience and a lot of this was because of our tour-guide Finny! He made it fun and interesting! Thanks Finny!

Anthony was our bus driver, he was very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of Pearl Harbor. I forgot a memento on the bus and he brought it to me at the hotel. If all drivers for this company is like him then you won’t regret booking a tour with them.

Too many changes to pickup area, guide did not guide the tour at the base. If you want a guided tour at the base then go with a different tour.

Loved seeing the USS Arizona and the Bowfin subramine was really interesting. The tour made it easy to get to Pearl Harbor, skip the long lines and get us back to the pier. I am glad the tour guide made the decision to cut one-hour off the tour otherwise we would have been hanging around the grounds with nothing left to see. The extra time gave us the opportunity to see some other important sites in Honolulu. Definately a very moving experience but the would benefit from cutting the tour length by at least an hour.
