A valuable tour that is aimed at Westerners but also has meaning for Japanese participants.

This is an extremely rare tour where you can tour inside the Missouri. Everyone except us was Western. On the Missouri, I was able to use a free Japanese guide. The operation is strict, only transparent bags are allowed, and using a regular bag is not allowed. Since we went with a regular bag, we had to check our luggage separately at the Pearl Harbor baggage claim, and because of that, we had to stop by there on the way back, which caused a great inconvenience to other passengers. Also, bringing your passport is required. Since I didn't have it, the tour guide told me to contact the agency that made the reservation before I left. It seems like a harsh measure, but that's American style. No leeway will be given. The Japanese agent was unreachable due to the late hour, so when I called Kamala directly, I was instructed to meet up by 8:20, and I was able to meet up after getting a ride with Lift. Everything became a valuable experience. The female guide drives a large minibus herself, talks the entire way, and has a toughness that is unimaginable by Japanese standards. A real professional. Kamala's phone representative was also very helpful, and they were reliable in a difficult situation.

Great experience learning about the beginning and the end of the Pacific War

Great way to see Pearl Harbor, the Arizona memorial, and the Missouri battleship. Our guide Jeff gave us great information about what happened on Dec 7, the ships and other bases, what happened on the Missouri, and more. Learned a lot and felt so much emotion for our military and their families.
