VIP Movie Tour . . . . Fantastic

kualoa
5.0

Took the air conditioned, VIP movie tour with George as our guide. The tour is two+ hours and is full of information about Kualoa Ranch, Hawaiian culture, and filming done at the ranch. I knew we would see movie and TV items but didn’t know I would learn what an Ahupua’a is (go on the tour and find out for yourself). Kinda cool. The views on the tour are incredible. The are many opportunities to get out of the van to take pictures of the vistas and movie sites and props. In fact, this is the only tour that lets you get out at some of the sites. George was very knowledgeable about the films/TV shows shot at the ranch. Jurassic Park, Jurassic World, Snatched, George of the Jungle, Tears of the Sun, Kong Skull Island, Godzilla, 50 First Dates, Windtalkers, Lost, Hawaii 5-0, etc. We were able to see sites and props from each as well as hear about filming and how it was done. There was never a time where I was bored or not interested in what was going on. I have been to Oahu many, many times and have never done this tour. What a mistake. I must say that on this latest trip to the island this tour was, by far, my favorite activity. Well done, George, and Kualoa Ranch!

We did the jungle tour and the catamaran ride. Both provided excellent views for photo taking. If you want to see some great movie sets, scenery and history, go to Kualoa Ranch. It was great.

Unforgettable Adventures at Kualoa Ranch - Jurassic Jungle, UTV, and Ocean Voyage

Worth it Recently visited the Kualoa Ranch with my mum and brother – we did the Jurassic Jungle Expedition Tour, UTV Tour and the Ocean Voyage adventure. Each group is given a schedule with all your activities listed to follow which I thought was pretty cool because you know where you had to be at a certain time and where. We enjoyed every single tour and learnt so much. Would like to give a shout to Claude – our guide during the Jungle Expedition – we learnt so much and had fun during the ride. Thank you all the working who were friendly and helpful!

My family did the Ocean Voyage tour and it was perfect. Easy parking, simple check-in, clean facilities, friendly staff, the tour was on time, there were plenty of food and drink options, and I especially love that they have lockers so items don’t have to be left in the car. I would recommend this tour for everyone, minimal walking, a shaded boat, great for families.
