Battleship Missouri Memorial Reviews

I work there five days out of the seven. And from what I understand it is an amazing tour much recommended even more than that is the shaved ice and the Dole soft serve must try on your to do list when visiting Hawaii. Plus the food truck has the most amazing Hawaiian food plus hamburgers hot dogs five stars... please come and enjoy the amazing history and the aloha spirit!!!

The ship who has great service during his time even though it must be manually with this ship there is yg mencanggi in his time aloha from hawaii

If you only have time to visit one of the many sites at Pearl Harbor, make it the Battleship Missouri. It's an awe inspiring peace of history!

Amazing tour! If you've got the time and the money and you're interested in the Navy. Check it out!

This was a great stop and I recommend to anyone in the area

They are restoring as we speak so give this a couple more years and will be even better.

It is the Missouri warship of the end of the Second World War and the ties between Korea and Korea that can not be separated! It was the surrender of Japan in the Second World War. It was a great battleship that saved many lives by supporting the main guns of the Incheon Landing Operation in the Korean War and supporting powerful guns even during the withdrawal of Hungnam. Of course it is old fashioned now, but at that time it was state of the art! If you are interested in World War II or history, it is a must-see course, and even if it's not a good sightseeing course, it's probably worth visiting.

Everyone should go at least once in a lifetime. Words cannot express the overwhelming feeling you have standing on the memorial

Spectacular history. Highly recommended. Our guide was knowledgeable, sincere and reverent.

USS Missouri (BB-63) ("Mighty Mo" or "Big Mo") .. is a United States Navy Iowa-class battleship and was the third ship of the U.S. Navy to be named after the U.S. state of Missouri .. Missouri was the last battleship commissioned by the United States and is best remembered as the site of the surrender of the Empire of Japan which ended World War II

So Great

Beautiful place inside and out, history is amazing!! Well worth it!

Worth the visit. If you go alone you will have more time to see the exhibits.. Allow a couple of hours to see everything. I recommend seeing the memorial.

Also part of the great Pearl Harbor facility. Once you are on board you smell the oil, you can either do a guided tour, or alone, you can do large parts of the ship. Very interesting, with many explanations and partly loving decoration.
Absolutely worth a visit, even for those who are otherwise museum muffle.

Another great memorial, this thing is huge and majestic and so much history to it. A definite must do. There are a lot of small details you may miss if you don't take the free tour, like what do the footprints on the deck mean etc.

Moving, exciting and just rousing. Anyone interested in military history and contemporary history must have seen the USS Missouri. Many veterans are on site and like to talk about their ship and you can really learn a lot. Even the view from the bow to the sunken USS Arizona is more than moving!

Nice ship but the price is quite high when there's so much renovation and closed access..

I did not tour the ship, just accessed the public areas.

Pearl Harbor is a pretty special place for a patriot.

Really interesting tours and a lot of information to take in. Highly recommend it.

Great. All surreal and sent a shiver up the spine. Unfortunate that the park rangers doing tickets at the entrance were arrogant and clearly didn t wNt to be there. I ll Think twice next time.

Very moving to experience that part of history and to realize what significant sacrifices were made to ensure our continued freedom.

There is a Japanese guide. When you enter and arrive at the information on Battleship Missouri, you will be guided in Japanese. No advance application is required.

Absolutely amazing. Very amazing place and can be emotional.

Lml this ship is 60+ years old and nicer condition then my own ship

An amazing experience for all ages! I would highly recommend the submarine tour as well!

very nice, since quite early in the morning at the entrance, time passes super fast

I went aboard the USS Missouri on its way to the Jap invasion and its return in the Panama Canal Zone when I was 12 years old. The sailors showed us where the Jap plane crashed into it and gave me a piece of the plane. However your story of the burial of the Nip pilot was not anywhere near the one you tell. They said that the pilot landed on the deck, they stripped his dead body and then flung it overboard They showed us his flight cap and goggles. I tend to believe them and not the story of a crew member sewing a Jap war flag and giving him a military funeral. Why should they? How many US soldiers were given this honor that were murdered by them in prison camps? That story is unrealistic.

Great place to visit a major historic event, the tour guide was very detailed oriented, the view from above and below makes the experience very enjoyable, definitely a site to visit while in Honolulu

It was great! Loved it. They know a lot of WW2. Very nice

Well worth a visit to the mighty Mo enjoyed most of the tour. I have heard from a number of locals how disappointed they are with the repair to the Arizona memorial and the length of time the repair work is taking. There are a lot of visitors that are wanting to pay respects and can only do from a distance. Get the job done.

Limited accessibility to wheelchair ans walkers, over all a great tour

Cool ship, but if you've seen one you've seen them all

Pretty neat place to experience what a battle ship looks like. I didn't join the private tour or any paid tours... Expect to stay about 1.5 to 2 hrs if you want to look at everything.

Very interesting tour. If you enjoy history this is a great place to check out.

As a sailor it is almost haunting to be aboard a ship so wrought in history. Even though I'm on an aircraft carrier, it's humbling to be aboard this Pinnacle of American sea power that was the ending point of WWII. I recommend everyone visit these sites and never forget the price of peace

Wonderful history to not only visit, but learn and embrace!

Nice, informative museum. Detailed models and displays.

We were there to take pictures and had the chance to check out tge place.

It is a place that is very meaningful historically.
Please visit once.

Friendly staff, immaculate ship, great history lesson!

The Mighty Moe, the name says it all, you haven't lived until you visit this unbelievable battle ship

A visit to the Missouri is an absolute must. So much history that it would be criminal not to see it.

The second time I was privileged to visit Mighty Mo, the ship my father served on during WWII. The first was with my father on a family vacation to Seattle to meet my dad's youngest brother. The ship was mothballed in Bremerton in 1963, and dad took me there and gave me the full tour. Very nice to see her again one final time!

Wow what history this ship has. When in pearl harbor one needs to visit this battleship. The one that end the war.

World War 2 historians will appreciate standing on the site of the Japanese surrender that brought that global conflict to a close. Not to mention one of the finest examples of historical naval firepower in the world.

I've been here for ceremonies and visits with family. It never gets old! Beautiful ship and awesome staff!

A must see for visitors to Pearl Harbor. Jump on a tour to find out more about the final events of WW2. A good counterpoint to the Arizona which represents the start of WW2 for the US.

Once arriving, you can opt to take a tour, no extra charge, which is extremely informational and intriguing. This take about 20 minutes and after you are set free to explore the battleship. Everything from the mess halls to the navigation deck is open and the turrets are especially interesting, but I'm into that kind of stuff.

The history and story of the Mighty MO battleship really comes to life as you walk the deck in a guided tour. The tour guides are incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and enjoyable. This is definitely a must see in Oahu!

We won the tour guild lottery and landed Edie Yakamoto. Search, seek and attach yourself to this educator. I will not say more as his story is Hollywood structure. The Boat is amazing and condition and preservation is top notch.

Learn America s history where WWII ended (surrender treaty w Imperial Japan was signed on the Mighty MO) right where WWII started (the bombing of Pearl Harbor. See the Mighty Mo as she was in her latest configuration after completion of Operation Desert Storm in 1991.

It's so wide that it can't be reached in a day.
I'm only looking at Missouri, but I feel like I saw a history I didn't know.

This is a must do! Have a hat for everyone and be prepared for a wait on the shuttles. There are plenty of places next to the ship for snacks and such.

I worked on the USS Missouri as a volunteer for several years....I met and worked with many wonderful retired military people. If you haven't volunteered, I highly recommend it.The USS Missouri is firmly planted in my heart and will be in yours to.
