What people are saying:
In the morning, there is only English tour led by the docents, and there is no self-guided tour. At first, I will feel unfree, and I found that the wrong one is choosing right! This tour is more like a dedicated service, with limited numbers of people separated for a good time, allowing you to learn more about the palace and enjoy the tour time.

Additional Information
Introduction
The Iolani Palace has a lot of unique distinctions associated with it. Constructed in 1882 by David "The Merrie Monarch" Kalakaua,this beautiful building happens to be the only Palace in the United States. Additionally, it had electricity a full four years before the White House, Windsor Palace and the Imperial Palace of Japan, flushing toilets before any palace anywhere, and was the first place in Honolulu to have a working telephone. There are a number of beautifully landscaped gardens surrounding this historic building, and tours proceed throughout the complex every thirty minutes. Adorned with authentic Hawaiian memorabilia, tours of this facility provide both a lesson in history and a look at a wide range of native art.

There is a Chinese interpreter available, and it is very detailed. I am not interested, but my eldest son will insist on listening to each room.
The only royal palace on American territory, and the Forbidden City of Hawaii, was listed on the National Historic List in 1966. It is a great place to start a walking tour of Honolulu's historic district.
The palace is the only palace in the United States in the center of Honolulu, the Forbidden City of Hawaii, in front of the palace, there is a Gold-plated bronze statue of Camehameha I, it is said that the bronze statue is not cast by the appearance of the Ikahameha Great.
The resources of the whole palace are also quite fun, the facilities here are very simple, you can see a lot of ancient ruins, the palace features a lot of art forms, you can see a lot of good content, the whole palace and countless art collection.
Raining? Too bad. Take a tour of the only royal palace on U.S. soil. Find out what Hawaii was before we grabbed it.
Learn about Hawaiian Royalty and see the Iolani Palace that was ahead of its time. See the gifts given to the King and Queen from all over the world.
Historically a beautiful place to see how they lived and what happened to the queen while she was held captive in her own room.
The only palace in the United States! Go for the tour. ..it's worth it! Learn about the history and culture of Hawaii!
A very informative tour and experience. There's a guided tour and audio tour option available for purchase. Guided tours were only offered on a select few days and hours, audio tours not so much. I thought it was a bit pricey for the tours ($22 guided, $15 audio) but that's just me. All in all, beautiful palace and rich history!
