Ride an open-air vehicle through Kualoa Ranch’s Hakipuʻu rainforest, crossing rough trails, stream beds, and hills with an English-speaking guide.

“ARRIVE EARLY. The tour was absolutely brilliant, and our guide Hoho (?) was knowledgeable and hilarious. We would 100% recommend the tour, the views were stunning and some great films sets too. A good mix between the two. Make sure you arrive early! There’s no note for this guy on the description (we’d recommend adding it) but you have to check in at the Kualoa Ranch ticket office, before you can head to the check in for the individual activity. Our first ticket queue took 20 minutes before we could head to the tour check in.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 513 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $67

Spend 90 minutes exploring Kualoa Ranch in a rugged Ford F-350 or six-wheel-drive Swiss Pinzgauer. Your driver-guide takes you up rough jungle roads to views of Kaneohe Bay, Mokoliʻi Island, and the eastern Oahu coast, while sharing ranch history, Hawaiian culture, plants, animals, and film-site details.

“I would caution you when you are purchasing tickets because the ranch tour had all kinds of Jurassic Park pictures etc., but it turns out that was not a Jurassic Park tour. Ian was our host on the tour and did a magnificent job! He was extremely knowledgeable about the history, told wonderful stories, and worked extra hard to meet the needs of the guests! I appreciate it very much! My only issue was with the marketing because it was slightly deceptive. Thanks again, Ian you were wonderful.!”
