      Only on the All-Inclusive Pass

      This attraction is available on the All-Inclusive Pass, but not the Explorer Pass.

    What you'll do

    Step into a 19th-century New England home less than ten minutes outside of Honolulu in the lush Nuuanu Valley.

    Visit Queen Emma Summer Palace with Go City®

    • Self-guided tour of the 19th-century New England home
    • Rare royal art on display and china from Queen Victoria

    Partially built in Boston, Massasschuessetts, business merchant John Lewis planned for a New England home to be built in cool and breezy Nuuanu. Completed in 1848, the palace was eventually down to Queen Emma. When she received the home, it served as a vacation spot for herself, King Kamehameha IV, and their son, Prince Albert Edward.

    You'll get to explore the seven-room home which was once the royal family's retreat from the hot and dusty climate of Honolulu. See a unique blend of Victorian furniture, royal art, and the hallmarks of Hawaiian royal style. The unique artifacts on display include the young Prince's cradle, a tiger-claw necklace, ahu'ula (feathered cloaks) and the kahili that signify Hawaiian royalty, porcelain from the Japanese emperor, china from Queen Victoria, and more. You'll also get the chance to explore the lush gardens which include both native and introduced tropical flowers and trees.|
