Description
The *USS Arizona Commander’s Multimedia Narrated Tour* adds depth and breadth to a self-guided visit at the Pearl Harbor National Memorial. Produced with the National Park Service, this 60–90 minute program spans **23 stops** that knit together the Road to War and Attack galleries with the shoreline *Path of Attack* exhibits. Narration by Jamie Lee Curtis, first-person survivor accounts, and NPS historians layers emotional testimony over primary sources, photos, and film clips to illuminate the morning of December 7, 1941—and its aftermath. nnBegin at the Visitor Center, collecting your multimedia device and souvenir map before moving at your own pace. The Commander’s version offers more context than shorter options, ideal for travelers who want a fuller understanding without committing an entire day. While USS Arizona Memorial boat tickets are reserved separately, the narrated content complements a boat visit if you have one, and still stands alone as a complete, moving experience. With multilingual audio and accessible facilities, it’s a thoughtfully designed way to learn, reflect, and remember at America’s most visited World War II site.
