Kualoa Ranch Raptor Adventure Tour

We did the UTV tour when we went a few weeks ago. The tour guide we had has been working there for 9 years so he was very knowledgeable and nice. We got a lot of photo op stops and information regarding the culture and history of the land. The tour was two hours long which was nice; not too long and not too short. We purchased our tickets in advance and got transportation to the ranch via bus. We didn’t have to go to the ticket booth since we did the transportation. When we went, it had just rained a little bit which helped with the dirt. Even with the rain though I still got dirt all over me. It was really fun and felt like a little adventure. Would love to go back again. Definitely a must do!!

BEAUTIFUL! Horse back riding tour: they are SUPER strict on weight limit and weigh you at check in. My husband was 5 pounds over and they wouldn’t let us ride. They were nice enough to switch us to the Zip Lining tour. Zip lining: AMAZING and worth the money. Took us a total of 3 hours. Tour guides were fun and knowledgeable. 7 zip lines and two bridges. Zip lines get longer as you go. Minimal hiking. They have several water stations posted throughout the tour with cold water. Was allowed to wear a fanny pack on the zip line. 20 minute ride out to the zip line to enjoy the views of the ranch and you get to see the movie sites along the way. Views all the way through are beautiful. Transportation available from Waikiki and very organized. Bus was very nice and the ranch handed us our tickets when we arrived.

We did the 2-hour horseback tour and really enjoyed it. For someone with no riding experience, I was comfortable and they provided great instruction. I only wish we had spent more time in the actual valley; about an hour of the tour is in dense forest without much of a view.

We booked the last movie tour of the day at 3:30 PM. We reached around 2:45 and had no trouble finding parking. After checking in at the ticket office,we explored the area.There’s a fresh produce store on-site featuring goods from the ranch. The tour started with a family photo, available for purchase afterward. Our guide, Gaby, was funny, knowledgeable, and really added to the experience. The scenery of the tour was absolutely breathtaking, and it was fascinating to see real filming locations from movies like Godzilla and Jurassic World and many other movies. The tour included stops at two major locations and lasted about 90 minutes. We had a great time, and it was a truly memorable experience. I’d definitely recommend it to movie lovers and anyone wanting a unique way to explore the island.

One of the coolest experiences on the island. We did the movie sites and ranch tour and had a fantastic guide, very pleasant, lovely voice, super knowledgeable of all the movies filmed there, he played good music during the tour. It was a great vibe. Once we got to the Jurassic Park movie location he played the famous movie theme when the scientists first see the dinosaurs and it had such a nice effect. I would 100% visit the ranch again. What a place! Definitely book tickets in advance cause it sells out so quickly.
