The Guided Hangar Tour takes guests deeper into the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum's collection than a self-guided visit allows. A knowledgeable guide walks through the museum's hangars and restoration workshop, sharing behind-the-scenes stories about how historic aircraft are brought back to life.

This ticket also includes general admission to the museum in Honolulu, Hawaii, giving guests plenty of time to explore the rest of the collection on their own before or after the guided portion. It is an easy way to get more out of a visit for anyone curious about the work happening behind the scenes.
