Do it! You will not regret it! Thrill of being on trails on an ATV and seeing real live movie sets as well as true World War 2 bunkers. Beautiful scenery! I would do this one over and over. I wanted to go slower and see some things in more detail. DO IT!
Word to the wise: my friend who went on the tour told me to not shower and wear clothes that will get dirty. Yes, plan on being a bit dusty at the end of tour, don't plan on a fancy dinner immediately after being on this tour, lol.

Wow. What a great, amazing and sweet Jurassic Valley Kualoa Ranch!
Regarding any ages, we had fun driving ATV vehicle through jungle and enjoyed visiting cages, raptors, bones, fossils and many… We have a great memory for exploring and wandering Kualoa Ranch. Kualoa Ranch is so much FUN, so we ❤️ that ranch.
The two services provided us a close captions for the instruction of how to drive ATV tour with transportation. We also did a follow-up driving's instruction on uphill and downhill for the safety.
The services were more happy to assist in taking pictures of us and the others.
We can't help laughing at the great pictures and short film. Thank the service very much. The services did an outstanding and amazing jobs. We love them.

This was so much fun. The area we drove through was absolutely gorgeous!! Breath taking views! So peaceful. The guide did a good job. We had so much reenacting a scene from Jurrasck Park. I will go again in a heartbeat
I wished we would have scheduled more activities.
Be sure and take advantage of planning some of their other opportunities like zip lining and horse back riding.

Isaac was a great tour guide who was very conversational and interested in learning about us. He also has a lot of knowledge about Lanai and told us fun facts about each stop. Overall, he was a friendly person and deserves praise for making the experience worth it even though we had a long day and were really tired from the morning drive to Lahaina from Kihei to catch the ferry. Thank you Isaac!

Until I was told "You have control," I was enjoying the scenery and taking photos. Once my piloting began, I was so nervous that I could only focus on the front and the instruments, but after about five minutes, I was able to relax and take in the surrounding views. It was my first experience, and I think this is just the beginning.
As for infection control, we both wore masks and communicated through the intercom, so there were no droplets. Additionally, the cabin is ventilated with airflow coming in from the wings on both sides. Also, there is a mount for attaching a GoPro, so bringing a GoPro or similar device is possible.
「You have control」と言われるまでは景色眺めて写真撮ったりしてました。
自分の操縦が始まると緊張で前と計器しか見ていられなくなるけど、5分もすれば余裕が出て周りの景色見れました。
初めての経験でしたが、これが始まりなのかな、と思います。
感染対策はお互いマスクしてインカムでの会話になるので飛沫はありません。そして機内は左右に主翼からの風が入ってくるので換気されてます。
あとGOPROの取り付けマウントが備わっているのでGOPRO等持ち込み可能です。

I participated on my first day in Hawaii!
【From Pickup to Experience】
I arrived on an international flight in the morning and was picked up directly from the airport. After the flying experience, I headed to my accommodation, so there was no need for separate transportation arrangements, making everything very smooth! Before the flying experience, they provided Hawaiian juice and snacks at the waiting area in the office, which felt luxurious and clean, almost like a lounge. I was nervous about my first flying experience, but I was able to relax. The owner and the receptionist were both Japanese, and they guided me through the hangar facilities, explaining about the airplane and taking photos.
【Flying Experience】
After that, the pilot instructor, who had finished inspecting the airplane, came to pick me up from the office and explained the flight route and weather for the day. The instructor was a Korean-Hawaiian who spoke slowly in English, and the receptionist also acted as an interpreter, making it easy to understand. (I heard there are instructors who can speak Japanese, but they were off that day.) During the explanation, they mentioned that there would be turbulence right after takeoff and suggested that I try piloting in the northern part later on, which helped me prepare mentally. They took many photos of me getting ready in the cockpit (I sat on the left side of the captain's seat!).
Finally, it was time for takeoff, but the propeller was quite loud, so I communicated with the instructor using headphones and a microphone. I could also hear instructions from the control tower through the headphones, which was a valuable experience. Right after takeoff, it was quite bumpy (they provide a bag just in case), which was a bit scary, but the scenery was so beautiful, and I could take photos freely. The view of Hawaii from the cockpit is exceptional! The instructor provided ongoing explanations about where we were flying over, including islands, capes, and filming locations from Jurassic Park, so I got a good sense of the geography since it was my first time in Hawaii. During the flying experience, the instructor gave clear instructions using simple words, and since I had requested it in advance, they took several photos of me piloting. Even as a beginner, I found the flying experience very easy and enjoyable.
【After the Flying Experience】
While waiting for the photo data, I enjoyed juice and snacks in the lounge. Since I mentioned it was my first time in Hawaii, they showed me guidebooks available in the lounge and provided various information and photos about Hawaii. When they dropped me off at my accommodation, they explained Hawaiian information along the way, making me feel glad that I participated in this activity on my first day! I would love to experience it again!
ハワイ上陸初日に参加しました!
【送迎から体験前まで】
午前中に国際線で到着して、そのまま空港に迎えに来て頂き、操縦体験後、宿泊施設へ向かったので別で送迎手配も不要で大変スムーズでした!
操縦体験前にオフィスの待機場所でハワイのジュースやお菓子をご用意頂き、オフィスの待機場所や御手洗もどこかのラウンジみたいで高級感、清潔感があって、初めての操縦体験で緊張してましたがリラックスできました。
オーナーさん、受付ご担当の方が日本の方で、格納庫の施設案内をして下さり、飛行機の説明や写真を撮ってくれました。
【操縦体験】
その後、飛行機の点検を終えたパイロットイントラの方がオフィスへ迎えに来てくれて、今日の飛行ルートや天候の説明をしてくれました。
イントラは韓国系ハワイアンの方でゆっくりの英語で話して下さり、受付ご担当の方も通訳して下さったので分かりやすかったです。(当日はお休みでしたご日本語ができるイントラの方もいらっしゃるそうです)
説明の中で今日は離陸直後から気流が悪いという事や気流の影響も踏まえて、北側の後半辺りを操縦してみましょう。という話をしてくれたので心構えができました。
搭乗時もコクピットにスタンバイしている写真もたくさん撮って頂きました。(機長席の左側に座ります!)
いよいよ離陸ですが、プロペラがかなりの音なので、ヘッドホン&マイクでイントラとやり取りします。
ヘッドホンからは管制塔からの指示?等の無線も聞こえてくるので、それも貴重な体験です。
離陸直後はかなり揺れて(一応、嘔吐用の袋を持たせてくれます)怖かったですが、それ以上に景色がとても綺麗で自由に写真も撮れます。
コクピット席で見るハワイの風景は格別です!
イントラから、どの辺りを飛んでいるのか随時説明もしてくれます。島や岬、ジュラシックパークの撮影場所の等、初めてのハワイだったので地理がよく分かりました。
操縦体験中はイントラから分かりやすい単語で指示をしてもらい、事前にお願いしていたので操縦している所の写真も何枚か撮ってもらいました。
操縦体験は初心者の私でもとても簡単に楽しめました。
【操縦体験後】
写真のデーター待ちの間、先程のラウンジでジュースとお菓子を頂き、ハワイが初めてである事を話していたのでラウンジにあるガイドブックを見せてもらったり、受付ご担当の方からハワイの写真やいろいろ情報を教えてもらう事ができました。
宿泊施設へ送って頂く際も通り道の随所随所でハワイ情報の説明をして頂きながら送って頂けたので、初日にこのアクティビティに参加して良かったと思いました!
また体験したいです!

We were fortunate enough to have had a new moon and clear sky up on Haleakalā back in September. We had breathtaking views of Milky Way, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, the Andromeda galaxy, and much more thanks to our amazing guide, Yoshi! Yoshi brought us a box of donuts and served us hot tea throughout the night. We were a bit fearful of driving down from the summit in the dark, but Yoshi led the way and made us feel very safe. This was easily one of our most memorable experiences during our visit to Maui and highly recommend it!

This was a very cool and unique tubing experience down the ditches of a former sugar plantation. The staff are fun, entertaining, and knowledgeable, including Laki and crew. You will experience views the island that you can not see otherwise. A must do for those who have not done it before. There are five tunnels you pass through along the way. Do not expect a lot of sun time. It was a very fun time.

Tour Guide was an enthusiast, patient, native who shared culture, history, science, jokes and Hawaiian myths and songs. You can't ask for more from a guide. Try to book for a moonless night for best view of stars. They use an automated 11 inch telescope. The food was surprisingly very good (vegetable lasagna), the brownie decadent and the hot chocolate and biscotti at the end a nice touch. Had an issue finding the pick up spot, but a phone call resolved this since we were close. If you miss the sign for the international market (if that's your pick up spot), look for the 76 gas station, enter there and drive to the back. Dress warmly and bring a refillable drink. Cold (but not terribly) even with the given parka and gloves. A very enjoyable 8 hour afternoon & evening l

This tour was by far our favorite part of our entire trip. The kayaking is beautiful and relaxing - easy enough for beginners (like some people in our group) but still very enjoyable for seasoned kayakers like my husband and me. The hike was also a lot of fun. A bit challenging at times - not so much in the way of fitness, but more-so because there are some places where it’s uneven and slippery. But as long as you wear good water shoes and step carefully, it’s a fairly easy hike even for someone that’s out of shape like me. The waterfall and swimming hole are stunning. Totally worth the muddy hike. Something we’ll never forget. And the guides are AMAZING! Our guide was Garrick - he was super knowledgeable, friendly, fun, and funny. He made the entire trip a blast. And at one point we met up with another group and their guide, Ty, was also super knowledgeable and funny - and played the ukulele on the hike back down. It was great! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone visiting Kauai and would definitely do it again.
Aloha J’Neal,
What a nice review with some advice of how to negotiate the often muddy trail. As you shared good water shoes helps allot.
Thanks for taking the time to let us know, well I mean that Garrick, continues to do good if not great job. Glad that you got to meet one of our other guides Tyler as well.
I can honestly say we have a great group of guides who truly love what they do and are their to interpret and share their particular and unique form of aloha.
Thanks for making it possible. You both sound like you might be candidates for our day long Na Pali sea kayak tour.
Stay active.

The day of I couldn't bend my knee so I stayed back, my husband was told no refund even though I let them know 3 days before that I had an injury. Had they not encouraged me I would have canceled the day I called, that is why I was calling them. In the end when Veltra contacted them they fully refunded my money. It was greatly appreciated!
