General Admission

General Admission allows visitors to tour the battleship at their own leisurely pace without assistance from trained tour guides. However, guided tours are highly recommended, particularly if this is your first visit.

Tours

Guided tours are by retired military veterans who have served their country in conflicts throughout the world and patriotic citizens and volunteers who, together have become the Missouri’s voice. Come join us and let us share her legacy with you. Nearly every square foot of the Missouri has a story, and there are some areas of the battleship that are only accessible with expert guides at your side answering questions and bringing the battleship to life. The unforgettable ‘Surrender Story’ as told by our escorts is emotional and passionate.

Inquire at the ticket office about military and kama'aina (local resident) rates. You will need to show an ID to secure these rates. Special school group or non-profit group rates are available with advance reservation.

For groups exceeding 20, please contact the reservations office at 1-877-MIGHTYMO (1-887-644-4896) AT LEAST 24 hours in advance for confirmation.

Ticketing:
Battleship Missouri Memorial ticketing and shuttle transportation is available at the USS Bowfin Submarine Museum & Park, which is located next to the USS Arizona Memorial just outside Pearl Harbor. The Battleship Missouri is located on historic Ford Island, within Naval Station Pearl Harbor; therefore, private vehicles without an appropriate Navy base pass will be turned away. Shuttle transportation is visitors' primary means of reaching the Battleship Missouri. There is plenty of parking near the shuttle station.

Food Service
Sliders Grill: Pierside, Sliders Grill offers visitors juicy hamburgers, tasty grilled hot dogs and thirst-quenching soft drinks that are sure to satisfy even the mightiest of appetites!

The Battleship Missouri Memorial ticket booth and shuttle station are located at the USS Bowfin Submarine Museum, just a short walk from the USS Arizona Memorial visitors center.

By car:

From Waikiki, take the H1 freeway and follow the "Pearl Harbor" overhead highway signs to the airport. DO NOT TAKE THE "NAVAL BASE" EXIT. Take the exit labeled "Arizona Memorial / Stadium", exit #15A.  Follow the brown "Pearl Harbor Historic Sites" roadside signs. The brown signs will lead you directly to the USS Arizona Memorial visitors center and the adjacent USS Bowfin Submarine Museum.

From West Oahu, take the H1 freeway headed East. Take exit labeled, "Aiea/Honolulu", exit #13A, to merge onto HI 78 / I-H201 toward Aiea.  Take the Stadium/Aiea exit.  Keep right, merging onto Moanalua Road.  At first traffic light, turn left to merge onto HI -99 E/Kamehameha Hwy toward Pearl Harbor.  Turn right at Arizona Memorial Place to the USS Arizona Memorial visitor center and adjacent USS Bowfin Submarine Museum.

By shuttle:

Hotel pickup is provided at major Waikiki hotels for nominal fees. Ask your hotel activities desk for Pearl Harbor Historic Sites shuttle details.

By city bus:

There is no direct bus service from Waikiki to the Battleship Missouri Memorial, but it does take riders to the USS Bowfin Submarine Museum that houses the Missouri’s ticket office. To take the city bus, catch the 42 Ewa Beach (directly to Pearl Harbor) on Kuhio Avenue in Waikiki and get off at the USS Arizona Memorial. Call TheBus at 848-4500 or check their website, www.thebus.org, to confirm routes, rates and schedules.

By cab:

This is a good alternative if you are coming from the vicinity of the airport. Anticipate a one-way fare of approximately $40 from Waikiki.

Other Pearl Harbor Historical Sites:

You may wish to consider combining our tour with those of the USS Arizona Memorial, USS Bowfin Submarine Museum and the Pacific Aviation Museum – Pearl Harbor. The USS Arizona Memorial is free (tax supported), but there is a charge for the USS Bowfin Submarine Museum and Pacific Aviation Museum, which are operated, as we are, by private, non-profit groups.

If you plan to visit all three of our facilities, please allow at least 5 hours for the complete Pearl Harbor experience. You may wish to allot some additional time to rest between tours, enjoy a bite to eat and to visit our gift shops.

Follow Historian Daniel Martinez as he takes you to the Pearl Harbor Historic Sites and beyond. Watch the video: "Pearl Harbor and Beyond".
