It was very moving and...

It was very moving and emotional. This was our first time there and we enjoyed it so much. The history of Pearl Harbor was fascinating. Loved every moment.

An experience of a lifetime!

This tour did not fail. It was on everyone' bucket list. Clift was so informative! He pointed out everything while on the drive there e.g. the private school where President Obama and Michelle West went to along with the high school Bruno Mars and Yvonne Ellerman went to. Going up Punch Bowl Crater was such a beautiful experience! But once we got to Pearl Harbor he was so incredibly kind taking pictures of us and having a printed itinerary for each couple. Pearl Harbor and the Missouri brought out all the feels. It was so emotional. As Clift explained what we would see, you felt as if you could see the Japanese planes flying over the mountains. Being on the memorial for the Arizona was an experience we will never forget. It was truly a solemn moment. One, that will remain in my heart forever. P.S. Let Clift's wife know he's a great guy

Seeing Pearl Harbor was wonderful. The historical significance was inspiring.

Basically this was just a shuttle to the site. Once there we were on our own to see everything. The driver gave us some background information in the van. I noticed that on the ship there were guides with their tours. That would have been nice.
