I took the 8B World War II ""Book end"" tour as well. The guide was excellent. Jesse was friendly, courteous, professional and very informative. I just LOVE history and especially anything having to do with WWII. This was my first time to Pearl Harbor and I'm very glad I went.\r

I was not too impressed with the Arizona since you could not see very much of her, but the museums in the main area were excellent and very informative. There was just enough time to hit the high spots before we left for the USS Missouri.\r

Might Mo was the best part of the tour for me. It started with a brief tour on the deck by a member of the Missouri staff. After that you were welcome to go wherever you wanted. The ship had access to everything from the bridge to the kitchen area and living and sleeping areas with written and video information in different areas that were excellent as well. Personally I wish I had more time to spend then the approx. two hours we had there.\r

After the Missouri it was back with Jesse with more info and humor with a drive and information through historical Honolulu and the Punch Bowl Cemetery which was interesting as well.\r

Overall an excellent tour that in truth would be cheaper to do yourself, but I felt as a first-timer it was good to get the lay of the land before I went by myself. It was worth the money. Nice job to Jesse and Discover Hawaii Tours
