Overall Rating
4.82Great day out
Reviewed by: Scott kelley, 2023/07/08What 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.

Adventure Time!
Reviewed by: Tyla J., 2022/10/29This was a great tour and wonderful opportunity for photos! My boyfriend and I went to this tour and it's a good enough time for the price. You get to see various places where iconic scenes were filmed from Jurassic park and Godzilla. The scenery alone is enough to make me want to go back and take it all in. Good for couples and families while on vacation.

Fun experience
Reviewed by: Shane , 2022/01/29Just make sure you prepare. Bring your own eyewear (goggles). Don’t use just a mask, wear a full head overnight or a mask that covers most of your face. It is really dusty and my eyes were burning after.
The helmets are really dirty and unless you want your skin to breakout. Bring a hat.
Girls don’t do your make up before, and don’t come dressed in nice clothes. Expect them to get really dirty. I’d suggest a change of clothes in your car.
But super fun, pack a lot of water. Great staff. Great vibes.

Breathtaking and fun. Must do!
Reviewed by: Julie, 2018/10/25The ranch itself is beautiful, easy to find, and has plenty of parking and good customer service. The Multi-Passenger Raptor UTV tour allows drivers to switch off wherever the lead decides for the group to stop and take pictures. Considering how fully booked this place is, I never felt overwhelmed by the amount of people and during the tour itself, I felt like we were the only people driving around. Each turn led to a scenic view. Our 1 hour tour felt really short. We only stopped once and I was left wanting more. I wouldn't call this a tour because there is no narration or information provided. You simply follow your group and the passenger(s) take pictures/videos.

Incredible location, slow pace
Reviewed by: Jorge, 2015/04/11My wife & I love to do ATV tours every place we go on vacation, so needless to say, Hawaii was a must. The Kualoa Ranch is an incredibly beautiful location where many movies (although mostly subpar) have been filmed, and our guide was very knowledgeable & friendly, so no complaints there.
However, compared to other similar tours we've done, this one was much slower. At the beginning, they warn that it's a 12mph tour, and that's probably an accurate average. The ATVs aren't very powerful, so you'll be lucky if you even reach 20mph going down hill.
It started pouring on our tour, and we were ready with rain jackets, but if not, the instructor will provide clear plastic ponchos. This may be miserable to some, but it actually made it more fun and genuine for us, as we got to ride through puddles & mud in the pouring jungle.
In conclusion, I understand the goal is to make this a safe experience, and that everyone varies in terms of ATV skills, but maybe there should be should be a couple of level options (maybe 1-hour tours = easy, 2-hour tours = moderate?). I would consider my wife & I as average drivers, so by no means am I asking for a daredevil & speedy experience, but a little more pace would have gone a long way. Otherwise, this tour is a no-brainer experience, as it's one of the most beautiful places we've been.
