Loved the ziplining at Kualoa Ranch!

Reviewed by: Anne N, 2022/10/01

Our visit to Kualoa Ranch was fabulous. We did a ziplining tour and it was incredible! We had never ziplined before but our guides explained it all and made us feel very safe.
The scenery was amazing, zipping over trees and terrain. You get a nice tour of some movie locations - such as Juraasic Park - on the way to and from the ziplines.
I highly recommend this adventure!

JURASSIC VALLEY!

Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii, 2022/09/29

Jurassic Valley. Kualoa Ranch is GORGEOUS. We did both the zipline and the e-bike in the same day. Loved the zipline! All ziplines were side-by-side so we could take photos/video of each other the entire time. There's a bit of short walks/hikes between some of the zipline platforms but nothing too extensive.

I would recommend bringing a GoPro with a wrist strap + carabiner so you can clip it onto your zipline harness and not worry about accidentally dropping or breaking your phone.

so fun!

Zip line

It was awesome. The way the lines went through the park and the view was outstanding. The instructors and the other members of our group made the adventure even more special. Would recommend this 1000%.

First time

Reviewed by: LsLary, 2021/11/16

Very first time zip lining
Guides were excellent and patient

It was very relaxed and we enjoyed ourselves.

The views were spectacular. Even saw several filming locations.

We plan on doing it again.

Next time adding Fanny bags so that we can carry cameras with us safely.

Worth Every Penny!

Reviewed by: Emily Feagin, 2020/03/03

At the ranch, there are ample options for breakfast/lunch that were well priced and very tasty! Plenty of opportunities to take great photos by the mountains prior to the bus picking you up as well...

The tour guides held a brief safety course before taking the group out zip lining to ensure everyone was comfortable using the equipment. Speaking of tour guides, they were all very friendly and engaging. Any and all questions were answered by them and they helped facilitate conversation among everyone participating. There were a handful of cold water stations throughout the tour so there is no need to bring any personal water...

Plenty of professional photography spots (taken automatically as you zip by them on the line) are located on the zip line tour, which will be pointed out by the guides. [None of the photos I posted are the professional photos.] I recommend purchasing the pictures (whole package rather than individuals) as the price can't be beat for the quality and quantity of photos. Oh, also bring some cash if you would like to purchase some energy shots from the photographer in case you had one too many mai tais the night before!

Overall it was a great experience worth paying for that I can't find anything to improve upon. A+!

Other things I can think of off the top of my head:
-Free locker storage for valuable items
-I would recommend bringing sunscreen and sunglasses and even a hat
-Hiking isn't that strenuous. Do not need to be in excellent shape or anything.
-Seeing where some of my favorite movies were filmed was pretty neat!
-Wear comfy tennis shoes

Do the coconut for extra speed!!!

Best Zipline Experience!

Reviewed by: MsTravelGal, 2020/02/22

This was my first time ziplining and I had a blast! Ka'a'awa Valley (Jurassic Valley) is one of my favorite places on Oahu and the ziplining tour is the best way to see it! Soaring over the trees with breathtaking views of the lush green valley was quite a thrill. All 7 of the lines had amazing views in every direction.

The guides were fun and helped to ease the minds of anyone who was nervous. You can tell they really enjoy their job and are passionate about Hawaii.

On the ride to and from the ziplining base camp at the back of the valley we passed by numerous filming locations. We saw Hurley's golf course from Lost, Godzilla's footprint, the Jurassic Park log, and many others. It was so cool getting to see where so many great movies and tv shows were filmed.

My favorite part of the valley: Joe's mountain, featured in Mighty Joe Young
Breathtaking views of the valley

Such a good experience with amazing views!

Reviewed by: Ashton, 2019/09/29

My friend and I did this together when she was in town visiting along with the UTV tour and we had so much fun! You get to see some amazing views flying through and the tour guides were so funny and made everyone feel very comfortable. They also have cameras set up that captured some really good pictures as well. My friend also took her phone with her in a waterproof pouch that you wear on your neck so we got some cool pictures that way too. I would definitely recommend and if you haven't ziplined before this is a really pretty place to try it!

Zip line is fun, but the business is something else

Reviewed by: -PAUL-, 2019/03/09

First off, i thoroughly enjoy the zip line. It was fun, was farther in the land on the ranch than i have before, so i got to see more stuff.
However, is the aftermath. I duped into thinking the picture i paid for, will be mine. In fact that is false. The ranch puts their logo on all the pictures, on the front. As you can see from the picture i have attach, the one picture i wanted, and actually did something of pose for; i couldn't enjoy. Now when i purchased the pictures, THERE WAS NO LOGO!!! Otherwise i would have mentioned it to them. Unbenounce to me, they took my money and i had to wait to find out about this. Once i expressed my concerns to the place on the telephone, i am talking to a person that company has given empowerment to make decisions for the company. In this case, its my fault i didn't pay attention to what was not shown or told to me. Yes that is right, i am the in the wrong. I bluntly stated, that this is one picture out of all of them that i wanted, because i did a pose and went by myself; because the other times i had to be paired up. I was in the wrong for going by myself. Now the staff that was there doing the zip line were awesome, and i had great time. I am talking about the aftermath, AFTER THEY TOOK MY MONEY!
Needless to say, i lose, they win. I don't get the picture i want, and i have to pay for it! What a great business!!
Unfortunately this will be the last time i will be going to Kualoa Ranch for anything, after this instance, how can i trust a company of their own wrong doings and still having to pay for it? Like i said, it is NOT there when you preview the pictures. It would have been obvious, and i would have known at that time on how it looks and guess what KUALOA? I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THEM!! Instead, you deceived me into thinking i am getting pictures of my good, with the lack of additional information attach onto the picture itself.
First time i was there, i misled about their ATV tour, no different than a shuttle!

How can i enjoy the one picture intentionally did something to pose when you block with your writing? SINCE KUALOA HAS THEIR NAME ON IT AND I PAID FOR IT, I AM NOT ALLOW TO POST IT?
My picture since you cannot tell with no literature on it.
My picture since you cannot tell with no literature on it.
My picture since you cannot tell with no literature on it.
My picture since you cannot tell with no literature on it.
See what i mean? Maybe i should have gone on the left, do they know this? Maybe if they were ignorant, they can learn from mistakes, rather than getting personal, offended, and then looking like an idiot!

Reasonable entertainment ever

Reviewed by: Kashi, 2017/02/05

As per I mentioned in title of this review, "Zipline & secret island" is the most reasonable entertainment that I'd ever had.
If you looking for following experiences/ memories, you rather choose zip than any other activities.
A) Having extreme entertainment and full adrenaline. (ATV, horse ride and others can not beat zip)
B) Seeing beautiful Honolulu nature and Hollywood filming location (The location of zipline is a little far away and you can see the filming location and beautiful scenery when you move there)
C) Learning Hawaiian culture (Every station in zip line has Hawaiian name and guides will tell you story relating to the name)

I guarantee you that you can kill three birds with one zipline!

A GREAT DAY AT THE RANCH...

Reviewed by: Frank and Seanna, 2016/05/07

The wife and I had never been to Hawaii or on a Zip Line before, but being from southern Arizona, we love horseback riding and the ranch lifestyle. The ranch is a beautiful place and is adorned with beautiful flowers, green trees, awesome views and a lot of history. Our horseback ride was awesome. I wish we had done the 2 hour ride. Bravo is a great looking buckskin who was relatively new to the herd. I really enjoyed riding him. He was just a tiny bit ornery at first, which made him more fun to ride, but nothing an experienced rider couldn't handle. He settled in nicely and we got to see some spectacular views. Lunch was good and filling. Then it was out to the zip lines. Our bus driver/guide was great. She was funny and very informative and knowledgeable. A real pleasure. Now I know what pipi is. LOL... You will see some pipi as this is an active pipi ranch. The zip lines were awesome. The guides were informative and knowledgeable and always make you feel safe and secure. There are cameras on some of the zip lines and a bridge. The pics didn't come out very good and were expensive to purchase. We found three that were sort of ok. If you bring a camera on the zip lines, you will probably get some pretty good shots but tether it to your body. If you drop your camera or phone or anything else, it's gone for good. They do have lockers at base camp to lock your stuff in while you are on the zip lines. There are a couple of uphill hikes between zip lines, (maybe 100 feet or so), that can be strenuous for someone out of shape and those paths have some loose gravel. Wear shoes that will be comfortable and work well with some loose uphill terrain. Tennis shoes work fine or hiking boots. There are also a couple of water stops along the tour. We had a blast and would do it again any day. Enjoy.

Ziplining adventure rocked!

Reviewed by: Anna B , 2016/04/28

While I was slightly hesitant to pay $$$ to go on a couple hours of zip lining, I am so very glad I did. My kids and I had a truly memorable experience and I wouldn't trade it for anything. The views are stunning, the guides were hilarious and safety was the top priority the entire time. My only regret was that I couldn't take the rest of my family with me!

Nice

Reviewed by: Panya , 2016/01/19

Pros: The guides were great. Especially the Hawaiian (?) lady. The zip lines were fun and I like how they had a story for each line. They were better than any of the other ones I been on. The cons: The hiking up hills with the heavy equipment. Not sure if that was in the description. They should warn us beforehand other than that I had a great time.

Excellent choice

Reviewed by: Laura, 2015/09/26

First time zipping and it was awesome! I will admit, I'm a little heavy and slow. I was worried about the walk between stations , the first hike was a little uncomfortable and I was slow, but the crew we had, were so understanding and encouraged me to take my time and enjoy the view. They made it great and the views are breath taking. The crew were fantastic and fun. We bought the lunch, highly recommend, it was the best meal the all week. Highly recommend!

Zip On

Reviewed by: Kim, 2015/02/08

The zip line tour was a fantastic adventure! This tour is perfect for beginners because you can sit in your harness and enjoy the canopy views. Each platform is at ground level, there are seven cables with varied lengths and two rope bridges.

Great Zipline!

Reviewed by: BeachBoy, 2015/01/12

The zipline at the Kualoa Ranch was great. I've always wanted to try it, so when I heard that they started zipline there, I signed up without hesitation. After the check-in, a nice bus guide took me on an off-road ride to the zipline station in the back of the valley. It was pretty cool to see a working cattle ranch that was used for many movies and TV shows. Once I got there, I was greeted by 3 guides who escorted our group to the tour. They did a pretty good job explaining the botanical information around each course, and of course, setting us up on the zipline to fly across the valley! There were 7 courses and a couple of suspension bridges. It was great, and I recommend this to everyone!
