Battleship Missouri Memorial Reviews

dont join the marines but just like it!WOOOOOOOOOOOOW!Just respect the marines!

Look back the time when the World War II ended with Japan surrender

Really a must see while in Hawaii. Great tours or just show yourself around. Great historical site. My kids and husband love it

I visited without any preparation as a result,
Almost everything was done.
However, because I m not good at English,
When purchasing four types of tickets,
When heading to the battleship near Missouri by bus
It took a little time.

point
Bus is free
Leave large luggage before entering
Purchase tickets in the morning if possible
Tickets are basically high, adult full course is over $ 60

Truly awesome!!!! What an amazing ship. Really hot so be sure to bring water bottles. They have a water bottle refilling station on the boat. I'm glad the USS MISSOURI is at Pearl Harbor.

Lived being able to access several parts of the ship. Be prepared to climb lots of stairs and ladders.

If you appreciate history, then you should see this.

I recommend the guided tour and defenetly go into the lower levels

Great guide, but too many different tours simultaneously

I thought that I'd enjoy the Air museum the best on this tour but the Missouri was so impressive. Since the Arizona memorial was closed it was the closest we came, but it felt very "right" to have the start of the US' involvement in the war, and it's conclusion in one place. The Arizona is well protected by this sleeping giant. The plaque marking the spot of the surrender and the documents (repros I think) were very moving. So many people gave their lives. There is a flag up on the exterior bulkhead by the surrender site, with 31 stars that MacArthur brought to the surrender - it was Commodore Perry's flag that he carried to Japan when he opened trade between our countries in the mid 1800s. MacArthur had a flair for staging an event! Tiny details thought through. You can do a tour or go self-guided as your ticket gets you an audio tour device. I thought we would be there for a short time but ended up staying over 2 hours. You get a feel for why they were called our greatest generation.

A historic, must-see site on Pearl Harbor, whether you live in Hawaii or are just visiting. The tour is interactive, and the guides are very knowledgeable and excellent sources for additional information about the battleship.

Good spot, standing on a deck and looking on guns you are feeling the power of this battleship, the only minus is that currently it is on reconstruction so some areas are closed for entry

Somber place, worth the visit, even though the USS Arizona memorial is closed for repairs, you still get a boat ride close to the memorial and the USS Missouri, and it is free, or $1 if you reserve tickets online

It's more than I expected, a lot of details of the history.

In Missouri Japanese guidance staff told us in Japanese (free!). We were able to learn about the ship's history such as the deca of barrels, the retirement of two times, the Kamikaze attack by the zero battle, the signing of the surrender document of Japan.

Excelent. Down, our Missouri battle ship guide was awesome, funny, with knowledge. We really enjoy the trip to all the facilities. Thank you, mahalo.

Great to see where history was made. Awesome battleship with interesting active past.

By far the one of the most important ships of history!

It can do the right job then a destroyer can do they should of cell this ship the Battle destroyer and if Allan comes and the ship be ready for them and they send the ship with no upgrades then it be fine in new Zealand

No comment.Absolutely historic. I love battleships this one is my favourite.

It was amazing are your guy was informative. I would go agine.

Excellent way to experience history! There's no end to what you can see on this ship. If you're interested, give yourself plenty of time!

Take the heart of the tour as well. It is worth it!

This was my second time at the museum and Honolulu. I would love to go there again.

After this also checkout the pacific air museum.

Great place to travel back in time and see the life and technologies of the last century

One of the most historical ships you can set foot on.

Very interesting visit, it makes one appreciate all the sacrifices made to bring peace to thew world and urges us to keep peace in this turbulent world. The narrated tour is informative and a must do.

If you listen, this awesome ship will talk to you...

The guided tour was awesome. Dennis was very passionate, very informative.

i really appreciate the attention of the staff and the tour they give it's very complite and not to mention the pictures you can take worth every penny

This was such an amazing tour. I loved what I saw and it was a great experience. I would return here without a doubt and highly recommend it.

Real force is great. I feel the history.
We recommend the explorer tour where you can see boilers and steam engines that you can not usually enter.

This is a very impressive ship with a lot of historical significance.

Nothing amazing, but does what it needs to do, which is give visitors to Pearl Harbor a decent option.

Viable for vegetarians.

It's free admission and you can take pictures You have to pay to find photos

Fantastic tour and guide. Really brought the history of this great ship to life.

I went when I was 9 years old, and when I was 20 years old again, I sat in the chair of a memorable CIC tactical officer (^^)! ! ! !

A well maintained ship with amazing heritage. The walkthrough is very well organized and you can move through the ship at your own pace.

Nice and relaxing able to go round the ship at your own pace either on your own or guides are available on board. The staff are very helpful and accommodating I would recommend this to anyone could very well be used as an educational trip.

All Hands on Deck History. The end of WW2 happened right here!

Enjoyed the guided tour and the self guided tour was awesome too

The battleship Missouri is the third Iowa battleship,
It is a warship deeply tied to Korea who had played two times before Korea.
Despite its magnificent size, the 1941 pilot, and the US Navy's last battleship, it has the world's best stature and state-of-the-art weapons,

Get the tour of the engine room if you can. Dom was a great tour guide.

Was amazing to stand on the deck where the end of WWII was signed. Enjoyed the free tour. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Enjoyed visiting this historical battleship!

A definite must see! A great ship that participated in many American conflicts! It s good to know we have this amazing ship watching over our soldiers resting below in the USS Arizona.

Went there for a retirement ceremony at the bow of the ship, but it's always great going there and seeing this impressive ship!

Great historical site! Staff SO helpful, especially when we needed a little more assistance with mobility!!

Awesome. Go to the 2nd deck and you can get a real feel for how life was on this battleship back when it was in service.

It seems that it was used to the Gulf War. A Japanese guide will be attached for free.
On this battleship, Japan signed the surrender of World War II.
If you come to Hawaii, I think you should definitely come.

This one of the must see at Pearl Harbor, this is an historic ship. For those who are "motorheads" take the extended tour below deck.

This is the battleship U.S.S. Missouri where Imperial Japan formally surrendered to the allied forces on September 2, 1945 ending WWII.

The tower was under repair when I was there, so I took off one star. However it is a must see nnly if you are nnly in the area.

A wonderful piece of history. The guided tour is well worth it you will hear stories you may not be aware of.

Went there on the below deck guided tour. We were treated to areas of the ship that will amaze you. Tour guides were so knowledgeable of all aspects of the ship and its history. An amazing experience not to be missed.

Interesting place, you can imagine what it was like with the decks full of sailors witnessing the formal surrender in Tokyo bay. You can spend a couple of hours exploring below deck and above deck. Entry includes a guided tour asking the deck

Shame on anyone for giving this less than five stars. The Missouri is a huge part of history, and they are doing an extremely good job of maintaining something so old, that sits in the salt water. The tour, and guides are excellent. The ship is enormous. I would recommend this visit to anyone. We all need to support the Missouri!

The ship is amazing and the tour details how sailors lived and the signing of the treaty to end WWII.

Steve gave an amazing tour of the shop and was extremely knowledgeable. Awesome job! Please support this amazing piece of living history. A must see!

The days of the battleship may be over but at least you can experience it still at the USS Missouri. Great experience on the vessel. She is absolutely majestic and is an image of a time when no one f cked with the power of the US Navy. I recreated the famous photo of the Japs surrendering on the deck with the kids. Soaking up all the hostory would take a few months.

Every American should visit PH at least once in their lives. This is where the fate of the world changed direction. I can not imagine standing at this exact spot where I type this on 12/7/41 8am and seeing 350 Japanese planes coming from around the mountains. We can never repay the servicemen who died here. I sat at the edge of the water and stared at the hulk of the USS Arizona for hours. Amazing and unforgettable. We owe our VFWs everything.

One thing that did irritate me was the commercialization of PH. I came here for history, not for tourist trap spots selling rediculously overpriced T-shirts, trinkets, and $15 hot dogs.

A well ran tour that provided a knowledgeable guide. Great showcase of the sacrifices that seamen made to protect our country.

Where else can you board an actual battleship? Great history to learn here.

In Hawaii, I learned a lot from history as well as vacation. Pearl Harbor seen from the United States. There are different values from Pearl Harbor seen from Japan.
You should go! !

Amazing history and tour of the battleship. Can't wait to come back and bring the kids!

Great tour and great historical stories. See Craig if you want the best tour.
