Lovely area to visit

Reviewed by: Lea, 2024/02/19

We did enjoy the tour but I felt like we missed out a little as we were sat on the right side and all the good views were to the left and when we paused to look at a view, I wasn’t able to capture any good photos because it was just everyone else on the left side of the bus with their cameras out. Just wish I knew before getting on and I would’ve sat on the left side that’s all. Otherwise it was really good, wish it lasted longer and the driver/guide was funny and informative

Dinosaur! Movie locations and exciting locations

Reviewed by: Hugh, 2024/01/21

It was exciting to see the actual locations where the movie was filmed spread out before my eyes. Please give it a try. The bus tour goes directly to the location, so you don't have to walk on mountain trails, so it's perfect for families with children.

Kualoa Ranch Hollywood tour

Reviewed by: Sree, 2024/01/07

We booked Hollywood tour at Kualoa ranch with our 2 little kids and we really enjoyed the experience. We also paid for pick up and drop off to Waikiki, which was really convenient.

The guide on the bus was really good and had lots of good information to share. We also enjoyed his humour.

Overall, we enjoyed the experience and will come back again.

Excellent tour and tour guide was super knowledgeable

Reviewed by: Shital Lakhani, 2023/12/25

This was a last min decision. I am so so glad we took this tour. Had an amazing time. Our guide was Sam and he knew the place inside out. He was truly amazing and had so much knowledge.
There is a 15 min hike too in this Jungle expedition tour and the view from the mountains is spectacular ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nick was a PHENOMENAL host!

Reviewed by: Kayt, 2023/11/29

This was my first major vacation after being isolated due to COVID. Being immunocompromised makes finding activities difficult. We contemplated the UTV/ATV tour, in hopes of social distancing. However, we settled on the bus tour at the last minute. We got the early Monday morning tour our last day on Oahu. The bus was almost empty, so we comfortably social distanced. (The later morning buses were definitely far busier) Nick was a great host and generally joyful human being. He made the experience even better for us, despite my limitations. This place is beautiful and gorgeously maintained. Cannot miss this! If I get back to Oahu and I am well enough, I’ll be joining the horse back riding tour.

Ranch Tour

Reviewed by: Maggiee, 2023/11/04

Fully enjoyed the ranch tour. We did the Jurassic valley movie tour in open wi Dow bus. Our guide was fantastic, engaging with everyone and very informative. Helping out taking group photos for everyone that asked. We watched groups go by in the jeep tours which also looked like they would be a lot of fun.

Kuaola Ranch

Reviewed by: Shenelle, 2023/10/28

Very well organized tour with beautiful scenery throughout. There is so much opportunity to take lots of pictures and interact with movie props, etc. There is also a variety of activities to do. However, this review is only for the Movie sites and ranch tour. The tour was perfect for those who cannot endure bumpy ride such as the elderly and pregnant. My mother was comfortable and did not complain about it being too rough. Our tour guide made it really special. He was very informative and engaging. Also, you can tell that he really enjoys what he is doing and really has a passion for movies and discussing them. I also love the fact that he was willing to take pictures Group/families. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone who loves nature and movies, or would just like to spend a 1/2 day at Kuaola ranch.

A great experience

Reviewed by: Ron , 2023/10/24

Our Movie Sites Tour driver was fun, knowledgeable and just a cool guy. The checkout lady at Auntie Pat’s Cafe was so friendly and funny. The whole day from pick-up to drop-off went so smoothly. We originally booked without transportation as we were going to rent a car but latter changed and added transportation. Kualoa staff are so professional. Highly recommend any tour there.

Kualoa Combo - Movie Tour, Jungle Tour, Farm Tour & Lunch

Reviewed by: Christine & Fiona, 2023/07/22

Absolutely amazing combination. Scenery and guides were excellent. Bit disappointed in the movie tour as part of sets deteriorated because of passage of time. Also thought you would see more of current sets. Farm Tour was very interesting which also included some movie sets. Lunch was excellent.

Overall great day out and fantastic place that is trying to maintain green friendly eco systems and preserve area for future generations.

Would definitely go again as there were other trips like zip lining which we did not have time to do,

One of the best tours on our vacation!

Reviewed by: Carlos R., 2023/07/19

So very glad I booked this excursion.
This was definitely by far one of our best excursions. We were able to see and learn so much about all the different movies filmed at this location. The trips were well timed and spaced apart enough that they did not overlap into one another. The guides were knowledgeable and very accommodating. Lunch was really good with great selections. I feel like a trip to O’ahu is not complete without this excursion. Will definitely recommend this excursion to others visiting Hawai’i.

Jungle Tour/ Movie Tour

Reviewed by: Kaz, 2023/06/23

We had the best time on our jungle tour . Our tour guide was outstanding . Funny, informative and we were captivated from the moment we sat in the seats and took off , until we returned back to where we started. It was the highlight of our tour experience. I would give this tour an outstanding rating!
Unfortunately the next tour was a huge disappointment, the movie tour.
While it was interesting seeing the cardboard signs where all the movies took place, there were little if no remaining evidences that any movie ever were filmed there. That was my mistake as the driver explained that all props must be removed.
Our driver mentioned immediately that he had “ deadpan humor” which sorely missed the mark. While he was knowledgeable and his information was interesting, his style of presentation was filled with unnecessary repetitive words “Also here within here collectively also here “ . My suggestion would be to work on simplifying the dialogue to keep the.audience engaged. Sadly, we decided to leave after the tour missing the last tour we had paid for.

I enjoy learning about WW2, so this was a nice tour for me. Seeing movie sites was super cool too. Our tour guide was great and very informative - but I'm sure this will be the luck of the draw for which guide you get.

Jurassic Valley Movie Tour

Reviewed by: Kimmie T., 2023/04/16

My mom and I had such an amazing time going on the Jurassic Valley Movie Tour. I thought we were going on a different tour because I am a die hard dinosaur fan but this tour was just as amazing. We got to see some amazing movie sets and when our tour guide took us to one of the Jurassic World Movie sets I about died. I was so excited. It was everything I dreamed. Our tour guide took us into the movie set when technically he wasn't supposed to, but he knew how much of a fan I am of Jurassic World so he made an exception. I couldn't have been more grateful. This is one experience I will never forget. My mom and I plan to come back to do the Jurassic Valley tour that is specific to the Jurassic Park/World movies and nothing else. We both had a blast. I kinda went Overboard in the gift shop and got so much Jurassic Valley souvenirs. The gift shop had so many things to choose from. I highly recommend recommend Kualoa Ranch. They have so many things for you to do there. Horseback riding, ATV's, Ziplining (which I've done and it's a amazing experience). They have amazing staff working there. I will be coming back to Kualoa Ranch for years to come.
