Hear commentary from your guide about the impressive list of films that have been shot throughout this landscape, such as "50 First Dates", "Tears of the Sun", and "Pearl Harbor", and TV shows such as "Lost" and "Hawaii Five-O". See where a dinosaur chase took place in "Jurassic Park" and take a picture of Godzilla’s giant footprint.

The sparkling waters of Kaneohe Bay are also where Johnny Depp sailed aboard Queen Anne’s Revenge in "Pirates of the Caribbean 4". Soak up the stunning views as you pass the iconic green backdrop of Ko’olau Range.

At the end of your tour, your guide will bring you back to your original departure point at the ranch.

The Red Carpet

William_R, Jun 2026
This package does not include transportation from Waikiki. Besides that, the tour was fun and exciting. Great picture spots. If you are more outgoing definitely go with an ATV/bicycle/horse package.

Nature's beauty

Sue_C, Jun 2026
They sell the farm meats and vegetables. Bring a cooler bag, to keep purchases. Beautiful grounds. Guided tours very informational.

Great staff friendly...

Priscilla_E, Jun 2026

Had a good time!

Marionne_S, Jun 2026
Visit was an awesome experience. To see where certain movies were filmed was very eye-opening. Highly recommend to first time visitors to Hawaii.

Poor management by the ranch staff

sharma1iit, Jun 2026
The views are good but the tour management by the ranch staff is bad. The buses they take you to tour in are crammed. They have 2 buses for every tour and they book each to the capacity without a consideration for the families getting split up between the two buses. Since the tour is almost 100% on the bus, splitting with the family or friends you are traveling with completely takes away from the experience. We happened to be the unlucky family of 8 where we had to split up one family member from the rest of the group. We were OK to take that and not delay the tour but rather than being apologetic the tour staff was being sarcastic and downright insulting when we requested if some accommodation can be made.

A Must For Movie / TV Fans

Kevin_H, Jun 2026
Totally worth it. Take the time to listen and take in all you see. Tour guides / Drivers are so knowledgeable - really was worthwhile!

We weren't able to book...

Debra_F, Jun 2026
We weren't able to book the full day or half day experience because they were all sold out, but the 90 minute tour was still amazing.

Dont focus on taking...

Tre_C, Jun 2026
Dont focus on taking pictures as they dont do it justice when entering into the valley and experiencing the shear size of the valley. Stay present & take it all in.

Great Luau

Lavaughn_W, Jun 2026
Great experience, MC was funny and talented. The performers and performances were great. Will definitely go again

Florida girl

Donna_S, Jun 2026
We had been to Hawaii many times and drove past and had always wondered what was there. We took the 2 hour ranch/ movie set tour and it was fantastic. Miles our driver had some really cute puns that he would use, that made the trip very comical. The scenery was fantastic and it is great to see a part of Oahu that is natural and not developed and a place people can come and enjoy and learn. I would highly recommend this beautiful experience.

First of all, I have to...

Bladimir_R, Jun 2026
First of all, I have to say that the staff and the environment was extremely friendly. The tour itself was amazing and the staff were funny and made everyone feel comfortable along the ride. The views during the tour were amazing and it was more than I could have ever expected.

The Jurassic tour was...

Jurassic Valley

Shawn_L, Jun 2026

Elizabeth_H, May 2026
Beautiful!! This place alone is just beautiful and breathtaking to see, then add all the places where the movies and tv shows filmed scenes was just cool. Also loved our guide who showed and went into detail all the animals on the ranch and the fun facts about the working ranch that it is. Thank you Kualoa Ranch for letting us visit your beautiful gem!!!

Don't miss the Kualoa Ranch Tour

Vern, May 2026
The scenery was magnificent !!! Food at the cafe was delicious. Great tour and great tour guide !!! We didn't want to leave.

Nice relaxing tour - It was a nice break.

Jessica_A, May 2026
We had the movie and ranch tour. It started at 9:45am, check-in 9:20am. We did not leave ourselves enough time so I would recommend doing that. Get there at least an hour early. For example, our check-in being at 9:20am, we should have arrived somewhere between 8:30 - 8:45am. This would have gave us time to settle in, find check-in (the line is long), look around and use bathrooms. I didn't have a chance to look at souvenirs, I could have looked afterward but didn't have time as we were on to something else. Carlos was our tour guide. He was amazing, knowledgeable and funny. Good vibes all around. We had a really good time doing the movie and Kualoa Ranch tour and would recommend.

Kualoa Ranch Movie Sites Tour

Atticus_Y, May 2026
It was very fun, and beautiful! Our tour guide was very witty and knowledgeable about the ranch and movie sites. The staff was very friendly and the valley was stunning. Definitely would recommend touring with Kualoa Ranch!

Fantastic!

Lizabeth_M, May 2026
Beauty all around. Great tour guide! So much history of the ranch and its roll in so many movies. Very informative.

Spectacular experience 😁

Annya_S, May 2026
Highly recommend if you are lucky enough to make it. It's the most interesting place on the island. Just being there eases your worries and lifts your soul. The only complaint is it wasn't long enough.

A great experience

Sophia_A, May 2026
This tour was such a fun and informative way to experience Kualoa Ranch and see the different sites movies were made. Our guide, Bonny, was fabulous and super fun!

Gabriel_U, May 2026
Had an amazing time doing the tour and our guide Sam was the best. Definitely would do it again and I recommend it to everyone.

It was so fun! Our tour...

David_V, May 2026
It was so fun! Our tour guide was funny.. such a beautiful ranch . Loved every minute of it . Didn’t know that there was so many movies filmed there

Great tour

Timothy_S, May 2026
The tour is great I would have liked it a little better if the stops were shorter and the drive was longer . Still a great tour. I would like to do the other tours at this location but they have a low weight limit for their side by sides.

Missed our tour due to slow check in process

Morgan_K, May 2026
We got there 30min early to check in. There was a thunder storm and it was pouring. We waited in a very long line for check in which put us 10 min past our start time and then were told we missed the tour and they couldn’t do anything about it for us. There were 6 of us, no refund

Very good Show it was worth it. Its good for the whole family

Raul_R, May 2026
It was very nice and enjoyable. The show and food was excellent. They also had stuff to do before the show .
