All Reviews for Kualoa Ranch, Oahu

The scenery at Kualoa Ranch was amazing! We stopped at photo spots and were able to take commemorative pictures. Two hours felt a bit long. It was fun to go through the river!

Kualoa Ranch has an amazing location! The ocean and mountains were incredibly beautiful. The two hours felt a bit long, but it was fun.

2時間は少し長く感じましたが楽しかったです。

The kids who love movies were having fun wondering, "Is this the scene? Is this the location of that scene?"

I was able to enjoy the drive while feeling nervous about the thrilling driving.

We had a good laugh at our faces and clothes covered in dust.

It became a great memory.

映画大好きな子供達は、これあの場面かな？あの場面の場所かな？と楽しんでいました。

私はスリリングな運転に緊張しながらも楽しんでドライブできました。

砂埃だらけになった顔や服を見て大笑い。

いい思い出になりました。

We had a spectacular time! The crew was so fun and informative!

We had a blast! Our guides were great and there were tons of photo opportunities.

I experienced riding a four-wheeler for the first time, and it was absolutely amazing! The driving can change, so everyone who rides can enjoy it together. The staff were very friendly, and we were able to take a lot of fun photos, creating many memories.

One thing I noticed on the Japanese website regarding clothing is that it mentions long pants, but non-Japanese participants were in short sleeves and shorts! You will get dirty just from riding the buggy. The dust is intense, so you will get quite dirty. It seems better to avoid wearing white clothes. My white t-shirt turned brown, haha. It gets dirty, but it's so much fun, so I definitely recommend it!

四輪バギーを初めて体験しましたがとても最高でした！運転も変わったり出来るので乗った全員で楽しめます。
スタッフの方もとても親切で面白い写真とかもかなり撮れて思い出がたくさん出来ました。

気になったのが日本のサイトで服装についてですが、長ズボンと記載があるのですが日本人以外半袖短パンでした！
バギーに乗るだけで汚れます。
砂埃が凄いのでかなり汚れます。白い服はやめた方が良さそうですよ。私は白のテイシャツが茶色になりました笑笑
汚れますが楽しいので是非おすすめします！

Good
Surprised to the beautiful place nice expedition.
But want to see more of Jurassic parc
Take other pack if you want to see the movie

For Jurassic Valley with door of Jurassic parc on the other side you must Take the other Movie pack and not this!!!

I participated with my 65-year-old mother!
We were in a team of eight, which included two groups of six people from Korea and the two of us.

At first, we watched a video in English on how to drive, but they also showed us a separate video with Japanese subtitles.

The guide spoke entirely in English, so we couldn't understand everything, but they explained the necessary safety information with gestures, and we had plenty of practice time, which made us feel secure before setting off.

I initially thought it might be a bit difficult for my mother due to her age, but there were some older participants in the other groups (not Japanese), and above all, we were able to experience something that is hard to come by in Japan, which made my mother the happiest.

The guide took a lot of photos for us, and the Korean group we participated with were very kind, creating truly wonderful memories.

65歳の母と参加しました！
一緒のチームになったのは韓国人グループ2組6人と、私たち母娘2人の計8人でした。


最初、運転方法を英語のビデオで見るのですが、私たちは別で日本語字幕付きのビデオを見せてくれました。


ガイドの方は全て英語で話すので、全てを理解することはできませんでしたが、安全に必要なことは身振り手振りで説明してくれましたし、練習時間もたっぷりとってくれたので安心して出発することができました。


最初は母の年齢には少し難しいかな？と思いましたが、他のグループにはもう少し年配の方（日本人ではなく）も参加していましたし、何より日本ではなかなか経験できないことができて、母が1番楽しんでいました＾＾


ガイドさんにたくさん写真も撮っていただき、一緒に参加した韓国人グループの方々にも優しくしていただき、本当に良い思い出になりました。

It was my first time on a four-wheeler, and it was quite thrilling. Everyone in the family was able to enjoy it. With the beautiful scenery, I think it became a great memory.

四輪バギーは初めてでしたが、かなりスリリングで家族のみんなが楽しむことができました。いい景色も相まって、よい思い出になったと思います

At first, I was anxious about the tour being conducted only in English, but when I asked the staff with a translation device, "Is there anyone who can speak Japanese?" they kindly brought over a staff member who spoke Japanese. Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy everything from meals to activities!

最初は英語だけのツアーで不安でしたが、スタッフに翻訳機で「日本語対応できる方いますか＿」と質問すると、親切に日本語が喋られるスタッフを連れてきてくれました。
おかげで、食事からアクティビティまで楽しくできました！

You can enjoy horseback riding for two hours through the forest and grasslands. The view of the sea from the hill and the grasslands that look like they were used for filming Jurassic Park were beautiful. Our cute guide explained various historical facts and stories in a fast-paced manner. It was my first time horseback riding, and I had a great experience. I look forward to doing it again next time. If you're not fluent in English, I think it's better not to lead the group while riding. There are many paths that can be confusing about where to go, but that adds to the wild charm.

林の中、草原をぽくぽくと乗馬を2時間楽しめます。おかの上からの海の眺めや、ジェラシックパークの撮影につかわれたような草原など、かわいいガイドさんが、一生懸命早口でいろいろ、歴史やいわれなどを説明してくれました。初めての乗馬でしたが、とてもいい経験できました。また、次回楽しみたいです。英語が堪能でなければ、乗馬での先頭には、ならないほうが、いいと思います。どちらに行けばよいか悩むよな小道が多いですが、それもワイルドでよいです。

This is the most fun attraction to drive yourself. They provide helmets and dust masks, or rather neck covers, and at first, I thought it was just for atmosphere. However, as we drove through the dust, it became essential, and my clothes and shoes turned brown from the dirt. It's definitely worth a visit, but be careful about your clothing!

これは自分で運転するのが最高に楽しいアトラクションです。ヘルメットと粉塵防止の、マスクというかネックカバーが配られるのですが、最初は雰囲気作り？と思っていましたが、途中から欠かせないくらい土埃の中を走行して、服も靴も土埃で茶色になってしまいます。絶対行ってみる価値あり、服装注意って感じです。

Thank you Hawaii Activities for helping me get a spot, it was an awesome day spent in the outdoors.

I was told this event was one of the best things on Oahu and I have to agree, it was a splendid day away from Waikiki and it Oahu's nature

We set off at 10, collected promptly by the pick up service, with full Aircon, arrived at the ranch to be welcomed and checked in immediately, we had a fair bit of time before our allocated event so walked around and checked everything out, everything looked well cared for, horses looked to be in tip top condition no ribs to be seen (horse owner so important to me), food was lovely at a decent price, expected it to be expensive as it was only place to eat but no, the ATV tout was on time and awesome, Matt and David were great fun and very informative, the scenery is fantastic, the return bus arrived on time to take us back, all in all a fantastic day out, fully recommended

The ATV Raptors were Amazing!! My sons had a great time. Esther the tour guide was informative and friendly. Seeing the iconic scenes from the Jurrasic Park movies was so much fun. The stories about the island and ranch were also very insightful and allowed you to connect with the atmosphere. We will be back next year for the horseback riding and Hollywood tour.

I let my kids drive, thinking it would double the fun. Whether the driving was chaotic or the road was chaotic (probably both), by the end, everyone was covered in sand. At a spot by the river, we intentionally sped up, and the two sitting in front ended up splashed with muddy water.

It's better to avoid wearing white clothes. You'll get completely covered in sand, but it's probably better than white. Even with helmets and goggles, sand gets in through the gaps and makes your hair all messy.

We laughed it off and had a great time! The pickup, check-in, and explanations were all in English. It was fine since there was someone who could speak English, but I would have been a bit nervous if I was alone.

I thought it would be a shorter time, but it actually lasts a solid hour and a half to two hours. It's worth the price.

楽しさも倍増になるかと子供に運転させました。運転がはちゃめちゃなのか道がはちゃめちゃなのか(おそらく両方)終わった時は全員砂まみれです。川のある所でわざとスピード出したりして、前に座っていた2人は泥水
までかぶっていました。
白い服は避けた方がいいです。全身砂まみれになりますが白よりはましかと。。ヘルメットとゴーグルをしていても隙間から入って髪の毛もバシバシになります。
それも笑い飛ばして楽しかったです！
pickupからチェックイン、説明など全部英語でした。英語話せる人間がいたので問題なしでしたが、私だけだったらちょっとドキドキです。
もっと短い時間かと思っていましたが1時間半〜2時間がっつりあります。お値段の価値あります。

I had always thought about visiting Kualoa Ranch someday. Since my husband loves Jurassic Park, we chose this tour. It felt like we were going through three short tours in one day. Each segment lasts 90 minutes, almost like a college class! The explanations are in English, but the American jokes are simple enough that you won't be completely lost. We learned about Hawaiian plants, and surprisingly, there were some aspects that felt like a school trip. We even got to crack macadamia nuts ourselves and enjoy fresh ones, making it a tour filled with attractions beyond just visiting movie filming locations. I was very satisfied. However, the time commitment is long, so it might feel like a waste if you're on a short stay. The round-trip bus is extremely cold, so I recommend bringing a thicker jacket or hoodie.

いつかは行ってみようと思っていたクアロアランチ。夫がジュラシックパークが好きなのでこちらのツアーにしました。３つのショートツアーを一日かけて周る感じです。90分1コマなのでまるで大学の授業のよう笑　英語の説明ですが、アメリカンジョークも簡単なものだったりするのでそんなに何を話してるかわからない状態にはなりませんが、ハワイの植物を学んだりと意外と修学旅行チックなツアーもありました。マカダミアナッツを自分で割ってフレッシュなものを食べれたりと、映画のロケ地訪問だけではない魅力が詰まったツアーで大満足でした。ただ、拘束時間が長いので短期滞在だと勿体無いかも。往復のバスは極寒なので厚めの羽織ものやパーカーをお持ちになることをおすすめします。

One of the best short trip at Ohau. Great Experience.. Very well planned trip. Smooth travel and very convenient..

I thought there would only be English-speaking staff, but there were staff members who could communicate in Japanese. During the activities, there were only English-speaking staff, but it wasn't a problem. The bumpy roads, hills, and breathtaking views were truly amazing. We also had time to take photos at a movie filming location, which was an irresistible activity for movie fans. This was my fourth trip to Hawaii, and it was my first time at Kualoa Ranch, but I can't believe I hadn't gone before; it was such a fantastic place and activity. I would love to ride a buggy the next time I visit.

英語のスタッフだけかと思ってましたが
日本語に対応してくれるスタッフがいました。
アクティビティの時は英語スタッフだけでしたが問題なかったです。
デコボコ道や坂道そして絶景
本当に最高でした。
映画撮影現場にも行って写真撮る時間があり
映画ファンにはたまらないアクティビティでした。
ハワイには4回目でクアロアランチは初めてでしたが今までなんで行かなかったんだろと思うくらい最高な場所、アクティビティでした。
また行った際にはバギーで走りたいです。

I enjoyed horse riding. I thought two hours was a bit long, but I was able to enjoy it thoroughly with a sense of excitement. Experiences like this can't be replicated virtually. I recommend it.

ホースライディングを楽しみました。2時間ちょっと長いなと思いましたが、緊張感を持って十分楽しむことが出来ました。所謂こういう体験はバーチャルではできない。お勧めです。

I participated in the four-wheel buggy ride!
The breathtaking views are enjoyable even with the English explanations!
Since your clothes will get covered in dust, I recommend wearing clothes you plan to throw away or dark-colored outfits.

四輪バギーに参加しました！
英語の説明でも充分楽しめる絶景です！
服が砂埃で真っ茶色になるので、捨てる予定の服、もしくは黒等の服装で参加されるのをオススメします。

My daughter and I had a great time at the Jurassic zip lining. The staff was amazing and made it even more fun.

Staff were amazing. The tour was on time and direction was great. All my family enjoyed every part of this tour. Thank you so much

Rained this day and we were nervous for the tour, but funny enough the rain made the experience even better!

Really a blast, the ziplines are so fast, and the little hiking to each line was gorgeous

We did the Jungle expedition, movie sets and agriculture tours. The guides at the ranch were great. The ranch itself is beautiful. We learned a lot of interesting facts about Polynesian culture, what’s grown on the ranch and got to try a few foods while on the agriculture tour. I took a star off because the bus driver was kind of a jerk. He complained about the other driver and belittled us for not laughing at his jokes or wanting to interact with his aggressive attempt at a side show on the way to the ranch. One lady did attempt to interact with him by asking a question and he got angry with her. No one attempted to engage with him after that. On the ride back to Waikiki he didn’t speak and hurried people off at their stops.

- Highlight of our Hawaii trip!!!!
- views of the ranch/mountains are breathtaking, not to mention it is next to the ocean
- don't expect to go too fast on the ATV's, the tour is for vibes not adrenaline
- tour guides were awesome, energetic
- got to see wildlife(cows, etc)
- 10/10 must do on your hawaii trip, worth the price of admission

We had the best time. Memories to last a lifetime and fantastic pictures also.

The buggy experience is about a 40-minute bus ride from Waikiki, and you get to drive quite a bit. You can use your Japanese driver's license, and since it's an automatic, there's no need to worry! The local guides are friendly, and the breathtaking views in front of you are just like what you see in the movie Jurassic Park.

There are also tours that take you around the movie set, but I’m glad we chose this option as a family of three. You can switch drivers, so my eldest son took the wheel partway through. Since it takes up almost a full day, I recommend planning your schedule accordingly. I highly recommend it!

ワイキキからバスで40分くらいのエリアでのバギー体験で、結構ガッツリ運転します。日本の免許で大丈夫ですしオートマなので心配無用！
現地ガイドも気さくな方達で何より目の前に現れる絶景が映画ジュラシックパークで観たものそのもの。
映画セットを周るツアーもありますが、家族3人で参加したのですがこちらを選択して良かったです。
運転は交代も出来るので途中からは長男がハンドルを握りました。
日中を1日ほぼ使い切るのでそのつもりで予定立てると良いと思います。
オススメします。
