HONOLULU ZOO REVIEWS
Best zoo I’ve ever been to! The animals looked happy and healthy. Their enclosures were large and natural looking. They all seemed to have food, water, and toys. It was also clean and beautiful through out the whole place. Saw some animals I’ve never seen before. Good price too!
Parking at the zoo fills out quickly so Prepare to park further from the zoo. Parking fee was less than $10 bucks for 4 hours so bare that in mind. Kids will definitely enjoy themselves at the park after your tour at the zoo. Comfortable shoes and loose clothes are encouraged since it's usually hot and long walking.
Can’t say this is our typical choice attraction when visiting a new city but it was close by and my husband really wanted to go. We spent just under 2 hours walking around and we had a great time. Lots to see and learn, great way to enjoy an early morning or afternoon. Zoo was clean and well kept. Staff were very friendly.

PEARL HARBOR AVIATION MUSEUM REVIEWS
Super cool museum. Loved learning about the Japanese aircraft and how they planned their invasion. They also have a legitimate Japanese Zero aircraft here to take a look at. Very cool to see up close. This stop was also the first time I’ve ever seen an F14 Tomcat in the flesh. Awesome to see especially after seeing the new Top Gun.
Definitely worth checking out if you're interested in aviation. There are two hangers of airplanes and several outdoor exhibits. Old historic machines to newer jets and choppers. We also enjoyed the dog-fight flight simulator experience.
You cannot miss this place if you visit Hawaii. There is so much history about the World War 2. We went to this place first thing out of airport even before checking into our hotel. The shuttle bus from main island made it convenient to visit this museum and a good place to visit with family

BISHOP MUSEUM REVIEWS
This museum is fantastic and a must see. Super informative and traces the history of Hawaii and Polynesia back to original migrations and then goes through cultural developments throughout time. As a history buff I loved it. It’s fair amount of reading a cultural artifacts, but all super rich and informative. We did the planetarium show that covers how Hawaiian navigators can use the stars for navigation, and it was super well done and fascinating. Loved this place and hope to go back as we didn’t get to everything.
A Honolulu gem! Everything about the Bishop Museum is worthwhile from its architectural beauty to its rich history on display to the educational fun it allows for children. As a senior, I appreciated the priceless Hawaiian artifacts and history the most, but it was also fun watching children enjoy things such as the slide in the aluminum volcano and the fluorescent hallway of simulated aquatic plants. Definitely a must see in Oahu.
I wish we'd had more time. I thoroughly enjoyed the displays about the history of Hawaii and her people, and will return when we have a couple of days to spend here. We highly recommend purchasing the Go City passes!
