Reviewed by: Gabriela , 2024/04/25

We had an amazing experience at the ranch
One couple in our group had a different time slot than
Us and they were able to get us all together !
Which was hands down the best !!
We were bummed we weren’t going to experience it together .
Our guides were super chill and Informative!!
THEE BEST TOUR GUIDES .
I believe their names were Lee and red ?
Don’t quote me on it . Lol
The cows along the way were so beautiful
The stories of the mountains were beautiful
The ride along the dirt was so fun
I definitely recommend being the driver !!
We didn’t get muddy but we definitely had dirt/dust everywhere!!!!! So maybe no makeup lol

Great tour!

Reviewed by: Jackie, 2024/03/30

I enjoyed this tour a lot! My partner and I switched several times when it came to driving and it was very fun. An amazing experience, the views were fantastic, our tour guide was informative AND the tour guide took great pictures for us! It rained a bit when we went but that didn’t ruin the experience. It can definitely get muddy and cold, so be prepared and check the weather beforehand!!

Worth it

Reviewed by: XoXo Icy, 2024/03/26

This tour was absolutely amazing and so fun. Corey was one of my guides and he was absolutely fantastic. Whoever the girl was that was leading us with him in the back of the group on 3/24/23 at 2:45pm was very stale and honestly seemed like she’d rather be doing something else. She wasn’t very exciting but Corey was!

Raptor tour was awesome! Drive yourself and save a headache.

Reviewed by: Darkman28 , 2024/03/13

The raptor tour at the ranch and the guides where so much fun and would love to do it again.

The transportation is a while nother issue. We needed to be to the bus pick up by 815 to check in for our 830 departure. Was told at pick up no food or drinks on the bus so we thought we could eat when we got there.

Bus left at 830 and arrived at 920 where we where kept in the bus for another 10 plus min for no reason given to us. A bus that had no working bathroom. When released we where told we had to gather for a briefing and couldn't use the restroom or we'd miss it itinerary.

Spent another 10 min for everyone on the bus to get a paper with their activities printed on it. Then we where lead into the ranch and briefed on every actively before being turned loose with just enough time to go-to the bathroom and report for our your at 1015.

After the two hour tour (great time) we had barley enough time to wash and get back on the bus. We where hungry and wanted to eat and shop for souvenirs but instead had to wait till we got back to our hotel at 2pm

No eating 8am to 2pm
Would have spent at least another $100 on food and gifts if given the time. Would never take their transportation again. Find your own way!

Reviewed by: Destiny Paine, 2024/03/11

The tour guides were great! Very informative and funny. We did get soaking wet due to the weather but man was it worth it! We had a great experience! We stopped a few time to take pictures and talk about the history. The guides were very informative. They also talked about different movies that were made there.Highly recommended!

Fun, informative & gorgeous!

Reviewed by: Sue K, 2024/03/09

My husband is 65 and I’m almost 60…never even driven an ATV before, and this was SO much fun! I would do it again!! Our guides were great. The UTVs rode crazy well over the rough terrain. It was dusty and dry the day we went-wear the face covering they provide and goggles. The vehicles are easy to drive and the path you follow behind the guide are bumpy and fun. The only thing I was bummed about is that we didn’t get to stop at the yard of bones for a picture. I think we ran a little behind. We needed about 10-15 more mins in our tour. All in all it was great fun, and we’d do it again if we come back to Oahu!

UTV tour is a FAST drive

Reviewed by: Babble-on, 2024/01/06

The Kualoa ranch is expansive and offers beautiful vistas of the Hawaiian landscapre - moutains, valleys, forests, and ocean views. The drive/pathway chosen to drive thru the 4000 acres is fast. I recall 3-4 stops - and always felt kind of rushed to jump out'the vehicle - look around - and then get back on the road as other UTV, bus, and bike tours were stopping at the same places. So, 1) it was hard to look around at the views while driving - typically between 15-18 mph - which sounds slow - but you're in a line of vehicles - someone drving in front of you - someone behind. Attention must be on the driving at all times while driving. Vehicle behind us was 'rushing' on our bumper - some kid in the car shouting at us to 'drive faster' rudely. Ummm - when you have to be attendant to what's driving in front of you (the guide in a vehicle) - sometimes, kiddo, that is not possible. And yes, his parents were with him - and yes, the father was driving - fully aware of the rudeness - that's all I say. Stopped to look at some of the remnants of scenery left by movies shot on location there. Photo ops were hard to grab when so many people and other groups were vying for the best views and angles. The guides were o.k. - a little flippant and joking around with each other a bit much. One of the guides 'treating' us to some local Hawaiian lore about the land and lizards - which did not make any sense to us and just seemed kind of out of left field and a little odd. It was worth seeing the land but - if you're driving, you'll miss out on a lot - until the brief stops.

Great Dirt Adventure

Reviewed by: Eileen Garcia, 2023/11/17

This experience was the best my husband & I had. Beautiful scenic tour to do if you can as a once in a lifetime to see the natural beauty of the Island. Our tour guides Moana & Ku ulei were awesome. They gave us quite an experience through the dirt roads and small rocky creeks. The few stops we did were excellent to see & hear about. It's not all just about the movies made there, but to hear the history blew my mind. I would definitely do this tour again & if I had more time do some of the others. I give it a 10 in my book of things to plan for an activity.

  • Smiles show how much fun we had.

So much fun!

Reviewed by: Carrie, 2023/10/13

The guides were amazing. Not only were the views spectacular, but I learned so much about the land. Be sure to wear clothes you don’t care about as we were covered in dirt/dust from the trail. But it was all worth it.
Helmet provided so don’t buy a sun hat in the gift shop like I did!
Gift shop was great too. Tons of food and items to buy. Highly recommend.

ATV Raptor

Reviewed by: Yesica/ Claudia , 2023/10/07

Tour guides where awesome and the views and scenery where beautiful. However we where disappointed that there wasn’t a lot of more Jurassic park props and scenery. Also didn’t like that we had to wait 3 hours after the tour to head back .

A Must Do Experience

Reviewed by: Emily, 2023/10/04

My husband and I did the ATV 2 hour ride / tour and it was amazing! It was so much fun to ride in the ATV and the views are incredible! It’s definitely a must when you come to O’ahu. You do get very dirty, so make sure you were clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. Our guides, Dani and Laura, were awesome. I love that they not only told us about all the filming locations and but they taught us things about the Hawaiian culture and the meaning of things. It was such a cool experience and it made me fall in love with the culture even more.

What a fantastic couple of hours spent on this experience.
Greatly run and great guides.

I would highly recommend this tour and location.

Even if you have not seen the movies shot on the property the landscape alone is worth going for.

ATV at Kualoa! HAD A BLAST!

Reviewed by: Carlos , 2023/06/27

Had an amazing time at Kualoa! The ATV experience was awesome, the crew was amazing, very informative & humorous, would definitely recommend! Side note: it does get VERY dusty so dont wear white or schedule anything after this. We had to go back to our hotel to shower and get a change of clothes. Besides that, 10/10!
