USS Arizona-Keehi Lagoon-Honolulu City Duck Tour

These Hawaii Duck Tours are unavailable until further notice.

Oahu Duck tours begin with guests boarding our mini-bus from major hotels and heading to historic Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial Visitor Center.  You will see historical exhibits and a brief film of the actual bombing. A shuttle boat will then take you out to the USS Arizona Memorial, which stands directly above the ruins of the sunken battleship. 

After your return to shore, it's time to take the Duck swimming! You will board the Duck, your water-tour "bus" which will then drive straight into the water and turn into a perfectly effective boat. You will cruise across Keehi Lagoon before heading back to shore to view some Hawaii Attractions: Diamond Head, Waikiki and downtown Honolulu. See Iolani Palace, the state capitol and other great buildings.

You will see: Pearl Harbor, USS Arizona Visitor Center, Arizona Memorial, Sand Island, Waikiki, Honolulu, Diamond Head, King Kamehameha Statue, Iolani Palace, State Capitol Building 

The DUKW (D-model year 1942, U-amphibian, K-all wheel drive, W-dual rear axles) is boat-like with a hollow airtight body. It was designed to carry 25 soldiers and their equipment, an artillery piece, or 5,000 pounds of general cargo and ammunition. On land, it can go up to 50 mph - fast enough for touring purposes. The US produced 20,000 DUKWs during WWII.  They first saw use in the invasion of Sicily in 1943. They also played an import role in the invasion of Normandy.
