Battleship Missouri Memorial Reviews

Great visit. Tons to see and do, had a wonderful guide. Saw some Apache helicopters taking off from the nearby base while on the Missouri.

Well worth the ticket price. Don't wait too late to start--super fascinating displays... Give yourself plenty of time to explore the pathways through the ship. Awesome!

This one is a little drive on a shuttle bus to Ford Island. The ship itself is massive. You can also have an audio tour with this one, but they weren't clearly marked on where to pick it up. It's near the beginning somewhere...we got all the way on to the ship and they said "Oh you have to pick them up down there." We decided against waiting in line again so we just went around on our own. They were doing the deck restoration or the teak wood deck when we were there. It was really amazing to think of how long this ship had been in commission, and to see the difference in the restored deck to the old deck. I often feel great pride in my country whenever we do a tour at Pearl Harbor. It is amazing the things we have accomplished.

She is a war vessel legend from ww2 to desert storm and from movies long live battleship 63 mussurii

It's crazy walking the decks on this massive ship and standing under the cannons

Very cool, very helpful staff, great that they worked with the cub scouts, thank you

Historic battleship. Very good tour. Guides are friendly and knowledgeable.

A share of history during WWII. My hats off for those who gave their lives.

We did the heart of the battleship tour. It was extremely detailed. 2 hours long. One can spend all day here.

It was under renovation when we were there, had a lot if it fenced off. Still very cool.

Enjoyed our guided tour with Toby, a vital, enthusiastic veteran from the battleship. The museum was historically interesting and informative.

Absolutely awesome, I wish I had more than 2 hours to spend here.

Very humbling experience. Everyone should visit if given the opportunity.

This ship was very interesting to walk around on and see how the crew lived out at sea.

Uncle Andy was our tour guide and was totally worth the half hour to listen to the history behind the battleship! The way he included the members of our group got us more involved with listening.

A must visit. Get the inside your. You pay extra but we'll worth it.

This was truly an amazing visit. Will always remember it. So much history. The ship its massive. We did the extra 90 minute tour until the heart of the ship - got to see what life was like well below deck.

If you are interested in learning about the history in Hawaii this is a great place to go. I went with a school group which meant there were over 60 people to accommodate in my group and they did an excellent job of doing so. We were divided into groups of around 20 and each group was taken by a tour guide. My guide was super friendly and even brought a lot of humor to his discussion which I appreciated a lot. Despite only having around 10 minutes until the ship closed for the day, he managed to teach us a lot about what the ship went through in the war. The guides were punctual with their time and overall very entertaining. It was also nice to simply explore the ship itself. It is a lovely tourist shop that I would recommend visiting.

This is an outstanding memorial that is well worth your time. Plan 1.5-2 hours if you don't want to feel rushed. The staff is very friendly and informative and the vessel is huge and intriguing. You can walk all over the topside, but also can go down below decks and see the crew quarters as well as the work space.

Our group did the Encampment Program along with the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum Discover Pearl Harbor Program. Both of these are amazing and well worth it for students.

It's got the biggest battleship ever made. What more is there the say?

Gave me the chills, knowing I was standing on the spot where WW2 came to an end. Amazing!

A real experience ... A lot of history in one place ...

I is the ship that the paper to end ww2 and me like ships and things that go boom boom

Hello,

I did the Pearl Harbour Memorial, Aviation and the Missouri tour earlier this month, Tuesday 3rd of March and had a gentleman with a moustache as our guide on MO. Sorry, can't remember his name. He was brilliant and brought a huge insight into the ship, it's history through numerous wars, the surrender in WW2, Pearll Harbour. Brilliant.
What a legend.

Michael. Brisbane. Australia

to even to be able to be able to look at this ship is an honor because there have been a lot of brave men served on this ship

This is the battleship where, in 1945 near Tokyo, the Japanese surrendered, marking an end to WWII.
The battleship guns were the biggest guns ever built on any battleship

Super awesome. So much to see and lots of people to provide information.

Just awesome to be able to stand on and enjoy such a great piece of history. Appropriate that the ship that ended the war is parked next to one of the ships attacked to start the war for America (USS Arizona)

The Pacific War began here at Pearl Harbor and ended on this deck.

Experienced another war ship tour. Always fascinated by these sea birds

Awe inspiring. Its definitely mighty. Such a huge ship and fantastic volunteers. Really its the volunteers who make the experience so incredible.

Where the peace treaty was signed ending the war with Japan. Marker on the spot on the deck.

Really loved that could walk through a proper battleship. It was a shame in some ways it had been refurbished from it's original WWII state however also good to see what life was like for those fighting a war in an era that I grew up in.

If you are into Naval History, this is the place you want to visit and walk the same weatherdeck where WWII ended.

Excellent tour. Lots of steps. Not handicapped acessable when below deck. Air conditioned below deck. Great docent for tour.

What a truly awe inspiring visit. The ship is incredible the tour guides are very knowledgeable. This is a truly must visit when in Hawaii.

A very well preserved ship. We took a tour which gives a lot more insight into life on the ship. There is a lot more than just the formal surrender that took place. There are interesting stories behind the people who were there and who was allowed to sign and who was invited to attend. The tours can be joined as soon as you walk on to the ship.

We took the short guided tour and enjoyed learning more about the history of the ship

We also went below deck and toured the ship. There is a mix of museum galleries as well as areas of the ship you can walk through. It gives a good sense of how crew members lived and worked there.

We spent about 2 hours there and could have probably spent another hour more.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our time aboard the USS Missouri!

First of all, the tour was very informative and just the right length. We learned the basics of the ship and the significance of what happened there.

Secondly, we loved the freedom to explore the ship. Below deck is self-guided. There's a maze of rooms to explore. We had a blast.

You can easily spend several hours here and there are plenty of picture opportunities.

If you have kids and are in the area, this is a great option. They'll learn a lot and have a blast. Absolutely with the price of admission.

You have to take a bus to get to the Mighty MO, but they have restrooms, drinks, and a gift shop over there.

Great tour of the history of the ship and it's significance in WWII. Highly recommend during the guided tour on the top deck before moving on to the self tour on the lower deck. Can be finished in a couple hours. Fairly easy to climb and walk around.

Informative guided tour explaining the history of the Battle Ship Missouri and the part it played in WWll.

We went here with a toddler and the experience was amazing. Its not everyday you have the chance to be inside a battleship. Seeing the battleship up close with the big cannons is definetly recommended if you ever visit pearl harbour.
You can also step inside the control room and navigation room. All the equipement is intact, and you can even see the process of launching missiles.
They have free guide tours that you can join aswell.
The cost to enter is $29 per person and kids under 3 are free

Well worth the time to visit. Excellent staff who are very knowledgeable.

Great ship! What an experience standing right where the war ended on the battle ship Missouri.

This place is big. Be prepared to do a lot of walking if you decide to visit this ship on your trip to Pearl Harbor. The exhibits and rooms below the deck are mostly self guided and get a bit repetitive towards the end, but the tour guides who tell the history of the ship on the deck are fantastic at what they do and make history entertaining.
