Oahu
Sam was a great leader and the ranch was a great experience we will never forget !
I was planning to drive using my husband's driver's license (the actual one), but I forgot it in the hotel safe...! Fortunately, I had a clear photo of the license, so when I consulted with the staff, they checked the image and allowed me to drive after I showed my passport and signed a waiver. I'm really glad I was able to drive! I had mistakenly switched to a digital license, so based on this lesson, I issued a physical card after returning home. Having the actual document is definitely stronger overseas.
夫の免許証(実物)で乗る予定でしたが、ホテルの金庫に忘れてしまいました…!
たまたま免許証を綺麗に撮った画像を持っていたので、スタッフに相談したところ、その画像を確認したのち、パスポートの提示と注意事項へのサインのようなもので許可がおりました。乗れて本当によかった!
自分はマイナ免許証にしてしまっていたので、この教訓を元に、帰国後にカードを発行しました。海外では実物が強いですね。
It was a two-hour buggy course, but it felt longer than I expected! At the end of February, it was a cloudy day, so I got cold from being exposed to the wind. I felt like I needed long sleeves.
バギーの2時間コースでしたが、思ったより長い!2月末で、曇りの日だったので、風に当たり続けて寒くなりました。長袖必要かと感じました。
I had a buggy experience, and it was fun. The instructor was kind, which was great. However, the Japanese explanation was only in a video showing how to ride, and after that, everything was in English. I think it would be fine for those who understand English to some extent, but I only understood it vaguely.
It started pouring rain halfway through, and the road flooded, so the bus couldn't return. We were stuck at Kualoa Ranch for several hours. Fortunately, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, so I was able to understand the situation. It's best to go on a day with good weather.
バギー体験をしましたが、楽しく、インストラクターの方も親切で良かったのですが、日本語の説明は動画で乗り方を見ただけで、あとはずっと英語なので、ある程度英語がわかる方なら問題ないかと思います。なんとなくしかわかりませんでした。
途中からどしゃ降りになり、道が浸水してバスが戻れなかったので、クアロアランチで何時間も拘束されました。この際は日本語を話せるスタッフの方がいたので、何とか状況はわかりました。天気が良い日に行くべきです。
You should go on a nice day.
天気が良い日に行くべきです。
I was able to spend a special day. It was my first time riding in a buggy, but since I was driving while breathing in the fresh air, I didn't get motion sickness and was able to enjoy sightseeing! The guides were truly wonderful people, and I felt deep down that I was glad to be here. I was really happy to see views that I can't see in Japan. This is definitely a tour I want to go on again when I come back to Hawaii!
特別な一日を過ごすことができました。
バギーに乗ること自体初めてでしたが、外の空気を吸いながらの運転だったので酔うこともなく楽しんで観光できました!
ガイドの方も本当に素敵な方達でここにきてよかったと心の底から思いました。
日本では見ることのできない景色を見ることができ、本当によかったです。
またハワイに来た際には絶対に行きたいツアーです!
Since your face can get covered in exhaust fumes or dust, it's a good idea to securely wear the cloth provided by the guide!
顔が排気ガスか砂埃で真っ黒になっちゃうので、ガイドさんから頂ける布をしっかりつけると良いです!
At the site, a Japanese staff member provided explanations in Japanese at the beginning, which made me feel at ease. During the buggy experience, the explanations were given in English by local foreign staff. The buggy ride was thrilling as we raced through the great outdoors, and it felt fantastic. There was also time to buy souvenirs and enjoy meals, making for a fulfilling experience. I would definitely like to participate again.
現地では、始めに日本人スタッフが説明してくださり日本語だったので安心しました。バギー体験中は、現地の外国人スタッフだったので英語での説明でした。バギー体験は、大自然のなかを駆け抜けるのでスリル満点で気持ちよかったです。お土産を買う時間や食事も食べる時間もあり充実した時間を過ごせました。また、是非参加したいです。
It was a 2-hour course, but the scenery was beautiful, and it had a sense of adventure, which made it very enjoyable. The staff provided explanations in English and were attentive to details like taking photos. I would like to participate again if I have the chance.
2時間のコースですが、景色が綺麗で、アドベンチャー感があり、十分楽しめました。スタッフの説明は英語でしたが、写真など細かに対応してくれました。機会があったらまた参加したい。
There are many tables where you can eat, so you can bring snacks and eat them there.
食事できるテーブルが沢山あるので、軽食などを持って行って食べることができます。
I went despite the uncertainty of whether it would rain or not. When I arrived at the site, I was told, "We can cancel since we don't know if it will rain," which made me feel relieved. Of course, since I saw a bit of sunshine, I decided to go. In the beginning, it was clear, and I was able to fully enjoy the great outdoors. However, in the end, we were hit by a heavy downpour, and I got soaked, so I recommend bringing a change of clothes. If the weather looks questionable, it's a good idea to buy a poncho at the shop. Everything was in English, but it was a very meaningful experience. The rain also turned out to be a good experience.
雨が降るか降らないかの中行きました。
現地に到着した時に、「雨が降るかわからないのでキャンセル可能です。」とも言われたので安心でした。
もちろん、晴れ間が少し見えたので、行きました。序盤は無事晴れ、大自然を満喫できました。最後は大雨に見舞われ、びちょびちょになったので、着替えを持ってくことをお勧めします。天候が怪しい時は売店でポンチョを購入しておくのがお勧めです。
すべて、英語のガイドですが、とても有意義な体験ができました。雨も良い経験となりました。
Even if you can't speak English, it's generally okay because there are people who can assist you in Japanese at the location. There is one buggy for the group, so it seems unlikely that the two of us
英語が話せなくても、現地に日本語対応可能な人がいるので基本的には大丈夫です。
バギーはグループで1台なので、2人だからといって相乗りになることは無さそうです。
ロッカーはJCBのカードが使えません。
It was pouring rain, but the staff really got us excited and we had a great time. Since it was off-road, the rain might have actually made it more intense and enjoyable.
大雨の中でしたが、スタッフも盛り上げて頂いて楽しかったです。オフロードなので、雨でむしろ激しくなって良かったかもしれません。
When the weather is bad, it's a good idea to leave your bag in a locker, and a windbreaker might be essential.
天気悪い時は鞄はロッカーに預けて、ウインドブレーカーは必須かも。
This was an awesome tour! Our tour guides were amazing and shared some incredible stories about the ranch, the movies and the island itself.
The buggy experience is wonderful. You can enjoy it even if you don't know the movie. A person who speaks Japanese will explain things before check-in after you arrive. However, once the buggy experience starts, it will be in English only. But you can generally understand it. The buggy doesn't go for a full two hours without stopping; it stops at power spots along the way. Also, the bus driver for the shuttle was very lively and provided guidance throughout the drive.
バギー体験は素晴らしいです。映画を知らなくても楽しめます。日本語を喋れる人は到着後チェックイン前に説明をしてくれます。しかし、バギー体験が始まると英語のみになります。でも、大体わかります。バギーも2時間ぶっ通しではなく、パワースポットごとに停止します。
あと、送迎のバスの運転手がノリが良くて終始運転しながらガイドしてました。
It tends to rain, and the trains operate in vertical lines of four cars each. If you happen to be in the first car, it seems that you'll have to follow the guide's instructions, so you can't drive. (W
雨が降りやすいのと、四両ずつ縦に並んで運行するのですが、その一両目に当たれば、ガイドさんの運転になってしまうので、運転できないみたいです。(私たちはどちらも回避)
In February, my family of five had an experience. It was cloudy and we encountered a downpour along the way, but that was actually nice. The rain added to the atmosphere and made it a wonderful experience. It became an unforgettable memory. In February, it can be cold if you go in short sleeves, so I think it's better to prepare a light jacket. Don't forget to bring a change of clothes. There are lockers where you can use a credit card, so you can store your things there. I was quite hesitant because it was expensive, but it became the best memory of this trip to Hawaii.
2月に家族5人で体験しました。曇っていて途中スコールになりましたが、それはそれで良かったです。スコールも雰囲気がでて素敵な体験でした。忘れられない思い出になりました。2月は半袖で行くと寒い事もあるので薄い上着を用意した方が良いと思います。着替えも忘れずに持って行って下さい。クレジットカードが使えるロッカーがあるのでそこに入れておけます。
結構高額で悩みましたが今回のハワイ旅行の1番の思い出になりました。
Don't forget to bring long sleeves and a change of clothes in February during the rainy season!!
雨季の2月は長袖と着替え持参するのを忘れずに!!
This was the most enjoyable experience of my trip to Hawaii!
I actually got to drive a buggy and go off-roading, and it was a moment where I thought, "I'm so glad I have my license." The off-road course was quite authentic and something you can't easily experience in Japan, and the scenery was amazing. I was thrilled the entire time as we drove past movie filming locations and more.
The instructor's explanations were mostly in English, but he had a very Hawaiian vibe and a sense of humor, making the lecture enjoyable, so I had no worries at all.
Since we had an early departure at 6 AM and I was picked up from the hotel, I had eaten breakfast beforehand. However, the shuttle bus made a stop in front of another hotel and suddenly announced, "Feel free to go grab breakfast!" It was a relaxed, Hawaiian-style break that I found amusing. I did feel a bit anxious about being left behind even though they took attendance, so I chose to stay on the bus and wait.
We had a two-hour course this time, but it flew by, and I thought, "Maybe I should have gone for the three-hour option," because it was so much fun.
In any case, I believe this is an experience you can only have in Hawaii, so I highly recommend this activity to anyone who is considering it!
ハワイ旅行の中で一番楽しかった体験でした!
実際に自分でバギーを運転してオフロードを走るのですが、「免許を取っていてよかった」と思える瞬間でした。日本ではなかなか体験できないような本格的なオフロードコースで、景色も最高。映画のロケ地なども見ながら走れるので、終始テンションが上がりました。
インストラクターの説明はほとんど英語でしたが、とてもハワイアンな雰囲気でユーモアもあり、楽しくレクチャーしてくれるので全く不安はありませんでした。
朝6時にホテルへ迎えに来てもらう早朝出発だったので事前に朝食を食べておいたのですが、送迎バスが途中で別のホテル前に停まり「ブレックファースト行ってきていいよー」と急に休憩タイムが入ったのも、なんだかハワイらしいゆるい感じで面白かったです。
ただ、点呼はしていたものの置いて行かれたら怖いなと思い、私はバスから降りずに待っていました。
今回は2時間コースでしたが、あっという間で「3時間にしておけばよかったかも」と少し思うくらい楽しかったです。
とにかく、ハワイでしかできない体験だと思うので、迷っている人にはぜひおすすめしたいアクティビティです!
I found that my body didn't get as dirty as I had expected, but the bag I had placed in the back seat fell to the floor during the ride and got covered in mud. I recommend keeping your luggage to a mi
思っていたほど自分の体は汚れませんでしたが、後部座席に置いていたカバンが走行中に足元に落ちてしまい、泥だらけになりました。荷物はできるだけ少なめにするか、しっかり固定しておくのがおすすめです。
Thought everything what amazing. Stopped at all the areas for pictures and Ivan our guide was tremendous. Could not have had a better experience!!!
At first, I was worried, but it was easy to understand because they taught me with gestures and hand signals. Driving the buggy was also simple, and the scenery was amazing.
最初は心配でしたが、身振り、手振りで教えてくれるのでわかりやすかったです。バギーの運転も簡単だったし、景色も最高でした。
It's better to bring a raincoat.
カッパは持っていった方が良いです。
We had such a wonderful time. Our guides were excellent and very knowledgeable. The ONLY complaint we had was the fact that the ATV’s could be a little cleaner other than that, it was a great experience.
The hospitable guides and Japanese staff provided various support, allowing us to enjoy driving the Raptor, fully experiencing nature, and listening to lectures about Hawaiian traditional culture, myths, and nature. Driving the Raptor is super easy even for women, and it's so much fun!
ホスピタリティあふれるガイドさんや日本人スタッフさんたちが色々とサポートしてくれるので、楽しくラプターを運転して、大自然を満喫して、ハワイの伝承文化や神話や自然についてのレクチャーを聞いたりできました。ラプターの運転は女性でも超簡単で、楽しすぎます。
The explanation videos in English are easier to understand than those in Japanese.
Be punctual.
There is time to take photos.
It's easier with a mask.
Please put tips in the container after fi
英語の説明動画のほうが日本語のものよりわかりやすいです。

Listen to when people tell you to go for the ATV tour, what a perfect way to see Kualoa!
On top of the ATV part, I enjoyed learning more about the land and local agriculture.
Great fun, atv easy to drive, scenery gorgeous , tour guides great, interacted with guests, took pictures for us, great personalities lots of photo opts. Highly recommend
Dusty, hang onto your phone!!! Lots of bumps
We did the 2 hour UTV tour with a family of four. This was our favorite thing we did. Get a little bit of movie history, a lot of nature, and some light thrills. Ben was our guide and was amazing. He mad the experience so fun and memorable. We had some intermittent rain on our day and it was still amazing. I could not recommend this place more.
I regretted signing up when the yen was at its weakest, but I had an experience that was worth it! Riding the buggy through the greenery and jungle was fun and refreshing. We visited various spots, including filming locations for Jurassic Park and other movies, stopping at photo points along the way.
At the photo points, they shared stories about the myths and legends of Kualoa, but I didn't quite understand it well in English ^^; Afterward, I looked it up online and realized that’s what they were talking about. On the flight back, I watched two Jurassic Park movies ^^
一番円安の時に申し込んでしまい悔しかったけど、それに見合う価値の体験ができました!風を切りながら緑やジャングルの中を走るバギーは楽しく、気持ちよかったです。ジュラシックパークや他の映画の撮影場所とのことで、フォトポイントを挟みながらいろいろ回りました。
フォトポイントでは、クアロアの神話や伝説のお話をしてくださいますが、英語でよくわからなかった^^;
終わってからネットで調べて、そんなこと言ってたと合致しました。
帰りの飛行機でジュラシックパークを2本見ました^^
Wear a helmet and goggles. You will also receive a scarf. The dust is quite heavy, so it's better to wear goggles. After you're done, be sure to give a tip as well. It's a fair income for their living
ヘルメットとゴーグル着用。スカーフももらえます。砂埃がすごいので、ゴーグルした方がいいです。
終わったあとはチップも添えてあげてね。彼らの生活費で正当な収入です。
I was recommended by a friend and participated for the first time this time. Driving the buggy was thrilling and exciting, but it was a lot of fun! The scenery while driving was amazing!
友人に勧められて、今回初めて参加しました。
バギーの運転はハラハラドキドキしましたが、とても楽しかったです!
運転しながら見る景色は最高でした!
Since the dust is quite heavy, I recommend going with minimal luggage and wearing clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting dirty.
砂埃がすごいので、最小限の荷物、汚れてもいい服・靴で行くことをお勧めします。
The Jurassic Valley Ranch ATV was a great experience and the staff was knowledgable and very informative. I would highly recommend this tour! Thank for a great time!
It was refreshing to race through while enjoying the beautiful scenery in a buggy. There were also times when a herd of wild cattle crossed our path.
バギーで素敵な景色を見ながら走り抜けるのが爽快でした。
野生の牛の群れが横切ったりするこもありました。
You cannot go down to the filming spot of Jurassic Park (the place where bones are placed).
ジェラシックパークの撮影スポット(骨などが置いてある所)には降りられません。
My first experience at Kualoa Ranch!
My companions wanted to do activities like buggies! They love Jurassic Park! I personally love Jumanji! I love nature! So, we started our buggy experience in the heavy rain☆
After the explanation in English, there was also a proper explanation in Japanese◎
After the buggy experience, we were able to enjoy our souvenirs and lunch at a leisurely pace♪
Although the weather was unfortunate, it meant there was no dust flying around, and we got to see the fantastic scenery of sun and rain, along with a rainbow, so it was great☆
クアロア・ランチ初体験!
同行者たちがバギーなどアクティビティがやりたい!ジュラシックパークが好き!私自身はジュマンジが好き!大自然が好き!って事で大雨のバギー体験スタートです☆
英語での説明の後、ちゃんと日本語での説明がありました◎
バギー体験後、お土産もランチもゆっくり楽しめました♪
あいにくのお天気でしたがその分埃が舞うこともなく太陽と雨の幻想的な景色や虹も見れたので良かったです☆
- If there's a forecast for rain, I think it's better to have a poncho or rainwear.
- You can place your luggage in the seat of the buggy (between the driver's seat and the passenger seat).
・雨予報があるならポンチョやレインウェアがあった方がいいと思います
・バギーの座席に荷物は置けました(運転席と助手席の間)
I participated in a 2-hour buggy ride. Wearing a helmet is mandatory. Goggles and masks are provided. It's up to you whether to use them, but since you'll get covered in dust, I chose to wear them. The scenery is magnificent. They take you to filming locations from Jurassic Park and Jumanji. I think you can enjoy it even if you don't know the movies. You'll return to Honolulu around 2:00 PM.
2時間バギーに参加しました。
ヘルメットの着用が必須です。ゴーグルとマスクも渡されます。使用するかは自由ですが砂埃まみれになるので私は使用しました。
景色は壮大です。ジュラシックパークやジュマンジのロケ地に連れて行ってくれます。映画を知らなくても十分楽しめると思います。ホノルル帰着は14:00くらいです。
The weather was bad, but that actually turned out to be a good thing. It rained a little, and since the ground was wet, there was no dust being kicked up, which I was worried about because of the reviews mentioning getting muddy, but that didn't happen. My son, who was driving, was happy about it. However, it was all in English without any interpretation, so I couldn't understand anything, which was disappointing. If there had been a Japanese interpreter, I would have enjoyed it much more.
天気は悪かったのですが、それがむしろ良かったです。少し雨が降り、地面が、湿っていたので、ホコリが巻き上がらず、泥だらけになる、の口コミにびびってましたが、それはなかったです。運転した息子が、喜んでました。ただ通訳がなく、全て英語だったので全く分からず残念でした。日本語通訳があればもっと楽しめました。
Driving a buggy through nature!
I signed up for this tour for a trip with my 67-year-old mother! I was a bit anxious about driving, so we opted for a driver, but it seemed like I could have driven myself! We drove through nature at about 20 kilometers per hour and were guided to locations that were used as filming sites for movies, and they also took wonderful photos for us!
They provided explanations at various points, but it was in English, so I couldn't understand anything... I think I would have enjoyed it more if I understood English.
The facility has places to grab light snacks, a restaurant, and a souvenir corner.
Next time, I want to go for a walk in nature on horseback!
大自然の中をバギーでドライブ!
67歳の母とのふたり旅で、こちらのツアーに申し込みました!運転は不安でしたのでドライバー付にしましたが、運転出来そうな感じでした!自然の中を時速20キロ程度で走行し映画のロケ地になった所などへ案内してもらえ、素敵な写真も撮影してくれます!
所々で説明もしてくれますが、英語でしたので、全く解らず…英語がわかればもっと楽しめたと思います。
施設には軽食が取れる場所やレストラン、お土産コーナーもあります。
次は馬に乗って自然の中をお散歩したい!と思いました。
It's better to be able to speak English! While there are people at the reception who can speak Japanese, the guides will be speaking only in English. Being able to speak English will enhance your expe
英会話できた方がいい!受付では日本語できる人もいますが、ガイドさんは全て英語です。英語ができた方がより楽しめます!気温も確認し長袖を持っていったほうがいいと思います。
This ATV tour at Kualoa Ranch was an absolute highlight - scenery incredible and riding through it on an ATV made the experience even more exciting.
I had seen all the Jurassic World movies, so the atmosphere and scenes from the films came back to life, and I was really excited.
ジェラシックワールドの映画すべて見てたので、その世界観&映画のシ-ンがよみがえってとてもワクワクしました。
