All Reviews for Kualoa Ranch Jurassic Valley Tours

I was amazed by the vastness that is unimaginable in Japan during the location tour. The jungle tour allowed me to experience the rugged jungle.

ロケ地めぐりは日本では考えられない広大さに驚きました。ジャングルツアーでは険しいジャングルを体験できました。

I visited the filming locations of Jurassic World and other movies, enjoyed a boat ride around the fish farming ponds, and explored the jungle in a jeep-like vehicle. It was a fun and surprisingly thrilling activity.

The jungle exploration, in particular, involved driving at quite a speed on bumpy roads, and at times, I felt like I might be thrown off. It was more thrilling than a poorly designed amusement park ride. The driver was a middle-aged woman with impressive driving skills; she drove safely in truly dangerous areas and even made a stop to take us up a mountain path to a secret viewpoint, which was a wonderful experience.

Regarding the jungle exploration, I wouldn't recommend it for those who are not comfortable with speed, children, or elderly individuals, but it's highly recommended for those who want to enjoy some thrills. Personally, I feel like I want to participate again!

ジュラシックワールドその他映画のロケ地をめぐり、養殖池を船で遊覧したり、ジープのような車でジャングルを探検したり、楽しく、意外にもにもスリリングなアクティビティでした。
特にジャングル探検は、でこぼこ道をかなりのスピードで走り回り、時々振り落とされそうになりながらのドライブで、遊園地のヘタなアトラクションよりスリルがありました。ドライバーは中年女性でしたが、なかなかのドライビングテクニックで、本当に危険なところでは安全運転でしたし、途中下車して10分位山道を登り、秘密の絶景ポイントにも連れて行って下さいましたし、とても楽しく過ごす事ができました。ジャングル探検に関しては、スピードが苦手な方、子供、ご高齢の方にはお勧めしませんが、スリルを楽しみたい方にはお勧めです。私個人はまた参加したい気分です！

The weather was unfortunately bad, but I was satisfied with all three courses.

The movie location tour was especially enjoyable, with the guide's stories being fun, and I loved taking photos with the dinosaur figures. I was thrilled to see the set of my favorite show, Five-O.

The jungle experience tour only had an English-speaking guide, but they explained things clearly, so I understood somewhat. They also spoke a bit of Japanese here and there.

On the boat tour, we were able to see the mountain range from the water, and when we went out to sea, the waves were strong, making the boat rise and fall like a theme park attraction, which was fun.

I was really glad they provided motion sickness medication, as all the rides had quite a bit of shaking, which was a big help.

I booked at the last minute, so this was the only tour available, but I would like to participate in horseback riding next time. It seemed that people in the horseback riding group were buying a locker key for $5 to store their belongings. It looks like it's better to go light.

生憎の天気だったのですが、3つのコース全て満足しました。

特に映画ロケ地ツアーのコースはガイドさんの話が楽しく、恐竜の人形とともに写真を撮ってくれたのがよかったです。
大好きなFive-Oのセットも見れて、感激です。

ジャングル体験のツアーは、英語ガイドさんのみでしたが、わかりやすく話してくれたので、
なんとなくはわかりました。
ところどころ日本語も話してくれました。

ボートのツアーは、水上からあの山並みを見ることができ、
沖に出ると波がきつくて、船が上下するのも遊園地のアトラクションのごとく楽しめました。

あると良いもので酔い止めの薬を書いておいてくださって本当によかったです。
どれもこれも結構な揺れを伴う乗り物だったので、助かりました。

間際に予約したのでこのツアーしか空きがなく、
今度は乗馬に参加したいです。
乗馬組の人は、荷物を預けるロッカーのキーを5ドルで買っているようでした。
身軽で行くのがいいようです。

Until now, my trips to Hawaii have mainly focused on snorkeling tours and the ocean, but the magnificent Kualoa Ranch was full of mountain attractions. The jeep tour only provides guidance in English, so I was worried due to mixed reviews, but the scenery was beautiful and it was thrilling, allowing me to enjoy it even without fully understanding English. For those who haven't been yet, you might discover something new in Hawaii. Horseback riding and ATV tours were also popular.

Options can be selected on the bus on the day of the tour, but there are some options that cannot be chosen on Sundays and holidays, so I think it's important to be aware of that.

今までシュノーケリングツアー等、海がメインのハワイ旅行でしたが、壮大なクアロア牧場は山の魅力が盛りだくさんでした。ジープツアーは英語での案内のみなので口コミでは賛否両論あり心配していましたが、景色も綺麗で、またスリルもあり私は英語を十分理解できなくても楽しめました。まだ行ったことない方は、是非ハワイの新たな発見ができるかもしれません。乗馬とバギーも人気でした。
オプションは当日のバスの中で選択するのですが、日曜、祝日には選べないオプションがあり、そこは気を付けた方が良いとおもいます。

My husband and I enjoyed the time we spent at the Open Palm Plantation. Upon our arrival we were taken back as to just how beautiful this place was. Lush greenery, a display of beautiful Hawaaian flowers, a gorgeous mountain view and a 2 1/2 acre ranch with horses that made this the picture perfect.
Kitty is a gracious host and was very knowledgeable to the area and shared some of her favorite restaurants in her book of goodies. Our favorites restaurants were: Over Easy and Hailewa Joes!
The distance from her place to Waikiki was a bit of a drive but the scenery in all directions was well worth the trip! If you want a great adventure whether it be just then two of you or a family getaway, you won't be disappointed!

I participated in a half-day tour riding a four-wheeler. It's not often that you get the chance to ride a four-wheeler, and being able to do it in Kualoa is really exciting. You can experience a jungle tour and a movie filming spot tour, all in one, which makes it a great tour. I accidentally left my video camera on the bus on the way back, but they handled it well, and I got it back safely. I highly recommend it!

四輪バギーに乗る、半日ツアーに参加しました。
普段四輪バギーにのる機会もなかなか無いのに、それがクアロアの中で出来るんですから、テンション上がりますね。
ジャングルツアーや映画の撮影スポットツアーなど、全て異なる体験をまとめて出来るのですから、良いツアーですね。
帰りにうっかりビデオカメラをバスに忘れてしまったのですが、しっかり対応してくれて、無事に返ってきました。おすすめですよ!

I had a great time communicating in Japanese both on the bus and at the destination! If I had to mention something, I was a bit disappointed that the meals and jeep tour were in English, but everything else was very good! On the cruise, I was able to see turtles, which made me very satisfied!

バスでも現地でも日本語ですごく楽しく過ごせました!!
強いていうなら、ご飯とジープツアーが英語だった事は少し残念でしたが他はとても良かったです！
クルーズでは、亀も見れて大満足でした!!

The smell was a bit concerning, but we were able to see a lot of beautiful scenery. My son really enjoyed the jungle cruise and said he wants to go again and live in Hawaii.

匂いは気になりましたがきれいな景色を沢山見れて、息子はジャングルクルーズがとても楽しかっだみたいで、また行きたい、ハワイに住みたいと言ってました。

We ar a family of 4 and we really enjoyed the time we spent at the ranch (very beautiful place it lself), the activities made the experience even better. We choose the The valley, The mountain and Secret Island! It was a blast!

We had a wonderful time at de Kualoa Ranch. We chose The mountain , the valley and Secret Island! All these activities were great for all of us!
The Ranch is totally amazing and beautiful itself, the activities make it even more awesome! !!!!

We love it!

When you think of Oahu, you probably picture Waikiki Beach and the surrounding resorts, creating a strong image of the ocean. However, if you venture an hour outside of Waikiki, you'll encounter a different space at Kualoa Ranch. I've been to Hawaii many times, but I only knew the typical tourist spots. The mountains are towering and incredibly beautiful! You can enjoy activities like horseback riding and ATV rides, making it fun for both adults and children, so definitely give it a try!

オアフと言えばワイキキビーチに周辺のリゾートを思い浮かべ海のイメージが強いと思いますが
ワイキキから1時間郊外にでるとクアロア牧というまた違った空間に出会えます。
何度もハワイには行きましたが定番の観光地しか知りませんでした。山がそびえてとてもきれいです！乗馬や四輪バギーなど大人も子供も楽しめますので是非行ってみてください！

This is truly worth more than the price!! I think so, and I will definitely come again next time! Haha. Since it's such a far place that we can't go on our own, there were really a lot of people who took the tour bus! But the bus is comfortable! The movie village tour was really great! I highly recommend it! I want to go again! That scenery is just the best! If my child were older, and if I weren't pregnant, I would want to do the buggy tour next time! Also, Secret Island was amazing! Even though the sea was polluted due to the hurricane, it was still satisfying! So I will come back for a revenge trip to Secret Island! On the island, you can enjoy activities like beach volleyball, table tennis, kayaking, and surfing, all for free! My child enjoyed kayaking! I was just swaying in the hammock! It's a place where just being there feels amazing. They even let my child ride a horse lightly! There are many staff members who can speak Japanese, and everyone is kind! They are really gentle with children too! So I am truly satisfied, and I will definitely come again! Next time, I will enjoy the beautiful sea!

これは本当に値段以上に価値があります！！
と私は思いますし、また絶対次回も来ます！笑
自分達で行けないくらい遠い場所な為かツアーでバスに乗った人は本当に大勢！でもバスは快適です！映画村ツアー本当によかった！本当にオススメ！また行きたい！あの景色は本当最高！子供が大きかったら、、私が妊婦じゃなかったらバギーツアーにしたいな！次は！あとシークレットアイランド最高！ハリケーンの影響で海が汚染されていたのに大満足するくらいいい！だからリベンジしてまたシークレットアイランドに来ます！島でハンモックに揺られてビーチバレーや卓球、カヤック、サーフィン等、好きな遊びをもちろん無料で！子供はカヤック楽しんでました！私はハンモックに揺られてました！空間に居るだけで最高！って思えるよーな場所です。
子供を軽く馬に乗せてもくれました！日本語話せるスタッフも多いーし、スタッフもみんな優しい！子供にも本当に優しい！だから本当に満足だし、また絶対にきます！
今度は綺麗な海で楽しみます！

I actually wanted to experience the buggy ride and horseback riding, but unfortunately, the day I planned was fully booked. I participated in the movie tour, jungle tour, and a cruise, and I’m glad I did all of them. On the cruise, I was able to see swimming sea turtles in the distance, and during the movie tour, I enjoyed the beautiful and lively Japanese guide's easy-to-understand explanations while riding in a quirky, vintage bus and taking in the great outdoors. The jungle tour allowed me to ride in a Swiss military jeep and experience the impressive driving of a local handsome guide while enjoying the stunning views of Hawaii. The food, however, was not something I could honestly say was delicious. Next time, I’d like to challenge myself with the buggy ride or horseback riding!

本当は、バギーや乗馬を体験したかったのですが、あいにく予定の日が満席。映画ツアーとジャングルツアーとクルージングに参加しました。が、どれも参加して良かったです。クルーズでは泳ぐウミガメを遠くに見られたし、映画ツアーでは美人ではつらつとした日本人ガイドさんのわかりやすい説明を聞きながらポンコツな味のあるバスに乗って大自然を満喫できました。ジャングルツアーはスイスの軍事用ジープに乗って現地のイケメンの迫力ある運転を体験しながらハワイの絶景を鑑賞できました。食事はお世辞にも美味しいとは言えなかったです。次回はバギーか乗馬にチャレンジしたいですね！

We were a couple who were really into Lost, so we wanted to see the filming locations and decided to participate. The kids were happy too, and we had a great time.

夫婦でロストにはまっていたので、そのロケ地も見てみたくて参加しました。子供達も喜んでくれて楽しかったです。

During the location tour, there were views that reminded me of Jurassic Park, and the sea was beautiful during the cruise, and the guide was very friendly.

ロケ地めぐりでは、あのジェラシックパークで見た景色があり、クルーズでは海がきれいでしたし、案内の方も新設でした。

I participated in three activities: a movie location tour for about 1.5 hours, a jungle tour for about 1.5 hours, and a cruise. While I thought the jungle tour was somewhat lacking in the jungle experience, we did climb Triangle Mountain by jeep during the movie location tour, and at the end, we walked up a mountain path of about 10 meters. We could stop the car along the way to enjoy the scenery, but the view after the hike was truly beautiful. Since it was cloudy that day, I felt it was better to do the cruise for about 1.5 hours instead of spending three hours playing at Secret Island. We left Kualoa Ranch at 2:30 PM and were back at the hotel by 4 PM. Although it was an early morning, I think it was a recommended tour.

映画ロケ地めぐり約1.5時間、ジャングルツアー約1.5時間、クルーズの3種類に参加しました。ジャングルツアーはジャングルとは言えずそこそこかな〜とは思いますが、映画ロケ地めぐりで見た三角山にジープで登り、最後は10m位の山道を徒歩で登りました。途中でも車を止めて景色を見れますが、ブチハイキングの後に見た景色はとても美しかったです。当日は曇っていたのでシークレットアイランドで遊ぶ3時間よりクルーズ約1.5時間にしてよかったと思いました。
14:30にクアロア牧場を出て、16時にはホテルにいました。朝は早いけどオススメツアーだと思いまさした。

I participated in the tour at the movie village and the secret beach. The movie village was very good, but the secret beach felt like being under a tent due to heavy rain, and when I finally thought the bus would come to pick us up, it took a long time to arrive, leaving me with a negative impression. I understand that the weather was a factor, but what I found disappointing was that I left something on the return bus, and when I inquired about it, I didn't receive proper assistance. They said they would check and get back to me, but I never heard from them. I know it's my fault for leaving something behind overseas, but I felt the response was quite poor. It's disappointing.

ツアー自体は、映画村とシークレットビーチに参加しました。 映画村はとても良かったのですが、シークレットビーチは大雨でほとんどテントの下にいるような感じで、やっと帰れると思ったらなかなかバスが迎えに来なく良い印象がありません。天気の問題もあったのでしょうがないのですが、私が残念だと感じたのが、帰りのバスに忘れ物をしてしまい問い合わせたところまともに対応してもらえず確認して折り返すと言って連絡がなかったこと。
海外で忘れ物をしたこちらが悪いのですが、あまりにも対応が酷いように感じました。残念です。

At the secret beach in the morning, we had unlimited experiences with stand-up paddleboarding and canoeing, and we had a great time playing. Toward the end, we were taken a bit offshore on a board and were thrilled to see several swimming sea turtles up close. During the afternoon movie location tour, the Japanese bus guide entertained us with fun stories, and we enjoyed the beautiful views of the mountains and the sea. I'm really glad I made a reservation! 😊

午前中のシークレットビーチではサップやカヌーが体験し放題で、夢中になって遊びました。終盤にボードで少し沖に連れて行ってもらい、泳ぐウミガメを何匹も間近に見れて感動しました。午後の映画ロケ地ツアーでは日本語のバスガイドさんが楽しいお話しで盛り上げてくれて、山と海の景色が堪能できました。予約して本当によかったです(^^)

I really enjoyed the scenery of the movie, the ocean, the horses, and the jeep!

However, the lunch buffet was quite disappointing with no salad, hardly any rice, and the lady who started cleaning up... I ended up eating mashed potatoes instead of rice.
Since lunch times are set, our group was probably the last to eat. I wish they would at least ensure that all items are available until the last group.

Also, I was looking forward to the lively atmosphere on the bus as mentioned in the reviews, but the microphone was broken and there was a quiet man, so I couldn't even hear the explanations.

The activities were fun, but there might be some hits and misses otherwise.

So, I give it three stars.

映画の景色、海、馬、ジープと、とても楽しめました！

ただ、ランチバイキングは、サラダなし、ごはんほとんどなし、片付け始めてるおばさん、、、で、かなり残念。ごはんの代わりにマッシュポテト食べました。。
ランチ時間も設定されるので、私達のグループはランチ時間最終組だったのでしょう。
せめて最終組まで全品残るようにして欲しいです。

あと、行きのバスの中から盛り上がるとのクチコミ見て楽しみにしてましたが、マイク壊れてる&大人しい男性で、説明の声さえ聞こえませんでした。

アクティビティは楽しいけど、あとは当たりハズレがあるかも。

で、星3つです。

My 3-year-old daughter is really into Jurassic Park, so I thought it would be perfect to participate. Although the activities we could join were limited, we had a great time enjoying nature in each one.

3歳の娘がジュラシックパークにはまっているので、ちょうどいいと思い参加しました。
参加できるアクティビティが限られてしまいましたが、それぞれで自然を満喫できて楽しかったです。

It was a tour where you could choose your favorite attractions based on the price and enjoy a full day of fun. We selected three tours: a mountain tour, a sea tour, and a movie location tour. Since we had just seen Jurassic World, we were particularly excited about the location tour! Additionally, on the sea tour, you can go out on a yacht and see sea turtles. Since everything is guided in Japanese, it was a high point that we could understand the content properly. There were times when it drizzled, but since we mainly moved by vehicle, it wasn't much of a problem. You can also experience four-wheeling and horseback riding, so I definitely want to visit again. I recommend it for those who find just the city and beach of Waikiki not enough.

価格に応じて、好きなアトラクションが選べて１日たっぷり遊べるツアーでした。
私達が選んだのは、山のツアー、海のツアー、映画ロケ地のツアーの３つ。
ちょうどジュラシックワールドを見たばかりだったので、ロケ地ツアーは特に
テンションがあがりました！
また海のツアーではヨットで沖に出て、ウミガメを見ることも出来ます。
基本的に全て日本語ガイドさんが案内してくれるので、
内容がちゃんとわかるところも高ポイント。
雨がぱらつく時もありましたが、基本は乗り物での移動なので、さほど問題はありませんでした。
四輪バギーや、乗馬の体験もできるので、是非また訪れたいです。
ワイキキの街とビーチだけでは物足りない人にオススメです。

I have quite a bit of experience traveling to Hawaii, but this was my first time at Kualoa Ranch. I've always wanted to go, and I finally made it happen this time. I'm so glad I went! I wonder why I didn't come sooner? At the private beach, I relaxed in a hammock, and on the cruise, I even got to see turtles. The location tour was fun, and it was a valuable experience to see the U.S. military bunkers. It was a packed and enjoyable day from early morning until nearly evening.

ハワイ渡航歴はかなりありますが クアロア牧場へは今回が初めてでした。
いつも行きたいと思いつつ、今回やっと実現しました。
行ってよかったです！なんでもっと早く来なかったんだろう？
プライベートビーチではハンモックでのんびり、クルーズでは亀にも会えました。
ロケ地巡りも楽しく、米軍の防空壕を見ることができたのも貴重な体験でした。
早朝から夕方近くまで盛りだくさんで楽しかったです。

We participated as a family.
We joined the jeep tour and the private beach.
The jeep tour had stunning views... and it was quite thrilling (laughs).
At the private beach, we had a very relaxing time, and there were plenty of activities like kayaking, table tennis, and volleyball, which made my elementary school son very satisfied.
The adults were able to enjoy some soothing time swaying in hammocks.
There was also a tour guide who spoke Japanese, so we could have a fun time without any worries.

We were blessed with good weather, and this became the best memory of our trip.

家族で参加しました。
ジ-プツア－とプライベ-トビ－チに参加
ジ－プツア－は景色が素晴らしかった・・・迫力も(笑)
又、プライベ－トビ－チではのんびりした感たっぷりあり
カヤックや卓球、バレ－等遊具も充実していて小学生の息子も大満足でした。
大人はハンモックに揺られ癒しの時間をゲットできました。
日本語も話せる添乗員さんもいて不安なく楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。

お天気にも恵まれ今回の旅行で一番の思い出になりました。

Although it was unfortunately rainy, I was able to enjoy a different charm of Hawaii that is not found at the beach or in the city. I took my two children on a movie location tour, a jungle tour, and a cruise. Since we spent most of the time on vehicles, it was quite easy even with kids. On Sunday, the cruise tour was smaller in scale, but instead, we enjoyed various tropical fruits at an orchard, which turned out to be quite nice.

あいにくの雨でしたが、ビーチや市街地とはまた違うハワイの魅力を堪能できました。
子供2人連れて映画ロケ地めぐり、ジャングルツアー、クルーズの3つを選択しました。
ほとんど乗り物に乗っているので子供がいても楽チンです。
日曜はクルーズツアーが小規模のものとなり、代わりに果樹園で色々な南国フルーツを楽しめたのですが、これが結構良かったです。

It was a shame that it rained heavily halfway through, but the weather is nobody's fault, so it can't be helped! Also, I couldn't understand the explanations in English from the tour guide during the jeep tour with the foreigners... (*_*) However, I was very satisfied with the nature at Kualoa Ranch!

途中から雨がざんざん降ったのが残念でした～
けど、天気は誰のせいでもないのでしょうがないけどね！
あとはジープツアーが外人の方と一緒で搭乗員英語での説明が全然分からなかったのが…(*_*)
クアロア牧場の自然には満足です！

We participated as a family of four, including two children (a third-year middle school student and a fourth-year elementary school student). We joined a movie location tour and a visit to Secret Island.

During the movie location tour, a Japanese guide explained the places used for filming movies and commercials while showing us the breathtaking spots on Oahu. The view of the coastline from the mountains was particularly stunning.

At Secret Island, we were able to casually experience various ocean activities, and the kids were very satisfied. They tried sea kayaking and paddling on a longboard for the first time. While opinions may vary, I appreciated that it wasn't a system where someone teaches you; instead, the equipment was just laid out for us to use freely, making it a very relaxed experience.

子供２人（中学３年、小学４年）を含む、家族４人で参加しました。
映画ロケ地めぐりのツアーとシークレットアイランドに参加しました。
映画ロケ地めぐりは日本語ガイドさんが、映画・ＣＭ撮影などに使われた場所を説明しながら、オアフ島の絶景スポットを案内してくれました。特に、山から見る、海岸線の景色が最高でした
また、シークレットアイランドでは、色々な海のアクティビティーを気軽に体験できて、子供は大満足。シーカヤック、ロングボードを使ったパドリング等を初めて体験。人によって意見は分かれるかもしれませんが、誰かが教えてくれるというシステムではなく、道具がただおいてあるだけなので、それを使って自由に使いながら体験するといった大変気軽なシステムだったところも良かったです。

Very enjoyable tour , had a great time we did the ocean tour , the movie site tour & the jungle tour . The movie site tour was our favourite and the lunch was fantastic

I was worried about whether I could enjoy it since I heard there would be few people, but they could speak simple Japanese, and for difficult explanations, they provided a written note in Japanese, so I was able to enjoy it enough.

少ないとの事だったので楽しめるかどうか不安だったのですが、簡単な日本語なら話してくれるし、難しい説明は日本語を書いた紙を渡してくれるので、十分楽しめました。

This time, my mother and I participated in the experience tour, while my husband and sister's family joined the buggy tour. We all participated in the garden tour and the movie village tour. Each of them was incredibly fun, thanks to the guide who really energized the experience. My mother, in her 70s and on her first overseas trip, usually quiet, even asked the guide questions on her own. We were very satisfied with all the tours.

今回は母と私がエクスペリエンスツアーで、主人や姉親子はバギーツアーに参加しました。全員で参加したのはガーデンツアーや映画村ツアー。どれもこれもガイドさんがめちゃくちゃ盛り上げて下さり本当に楽しかったです。70代の母も初めての海外旅行で、しかも普段は無口なのに自分からガイドさんに質問したりして。どのツアーも大満足でした。

This was my sixth trip to Hawaii, and I was invited by my daughter to visit Kualoa for the first time. After having a fun conversation with the pickup staff, we arrived after about an hour on the bus. We participated in the location tour, a jeep tour, and a Kaneohe Bay cruise. The location tour was just as I imagined, and it was quite noisy as we were with a group from a training trip in Japan. The jeep tour was more enjoyable than I expected. Our driver, Mr. Leonald, provided easy-to-understand explanations and offered great service by taking photos at the stopping points. The cruise felt a bit like a way to kill time, but the ocean was very beautiful. I think Kualoa is a place worth visiting at least once to enjoy the great nature.

ハワイ６度目にして、娘に誘われクアロアに始めて行きました。
ピックアップのスタッフと楽しく話しながら、バスに揺られて一時間程で到着しました。
ロケ地めぐりとジープツアー、カネオヘ湾クルーズに参加しました。
ロケ地めぐりは想像通りで、日本の研修旅行の団体と一緒になって、うるさかったです。
ジープツアーが思った以上に楽しかったです。ドライバーのMr.Leonaldの説明が分かり易く、途中の停車ポイントでも写真を撮ってくれたりサービス満点でした。
クルーズは時間つぶしの感がありましたが、海がとても綺麗でした。
クアロアの大自然を満喫して一度は行っても良い場所だと思いました。
