Pearl Harbor Tours: By Land Or By Air?
If you’re planning a visit to Oahu, chances are you’ll be researching Pearl Harbor tours. Your choices: see Pearl Harbor on a self-guided tour and get there early, hire a tour company to show your group the historical sites of Pearl Harbor, or hop on an authentic World War II airplane and fly over Pearl Harbor for a unique experience.
Below we’ve highlighted some of the land, air and self-guided Pearl Harbor tours available to visitors.
Pearl Harbor By Air…
The Japanese success at Pearl Harbor was largely attributable to the routes used into the airfields at Wheeler, Kāne‘ohe and Bellows. There are many air tours you can take around the world, but none of them may have as much meaning as seeing Pearl Harbor by air.
Pearl Harbor Warbirds
Pearl Harbor Warbirds offers the best Hawai‘i flight adventure tours available. Be immersed in the details of the infamous attack on Pearl Harbor and soar above the important sites that played a part in the “Day of Infamy.” Relive history as you retrace the steps of the Army and Navy airmen in the days following the bombing. Fly on some of the same routes the Japanese attackers used into the airfields at Wheeler, Kāne‘ohe and Bellows. There are many air tours in Hawai‘i, but only one warbird airplane flight. Located in Honolulu, Hawai‘i Pearl Harbor Warbirds provides a personal historical experience making it one of the best O‘ahu attractions.
