About Kualoa Ranch - UTV Raptor Ride-Along Tour
Drive a multi-passenger UTV Raptor at Kualoa Ranch on a 2-hour guided route through valleys, ranch roads, stream crossings, movie sites and mountain scenery.
Kualoa Ranch's 2-hour UTV Raptor tour gives your group its own open-air vehicle for a guided ride through one of Oahu's most recognizable ranch landscapes. The trail moves away from the visitor center and into wide valley scenery, with dirt roads, mountain walls and ranch land all around you.
Unlike a ride-along tour, this one has a driver from your party behind the wheel. The guide leads the route, and each UTV Raptor seats 2 to 6 guests, making it a fun choice for families or friends who want to share the ride instead of splitting into separate vehicles.
Along the way, expect a bumpy, dusty ride through remote parts of the ranch, with stream crossings, valley views and stops near filming locations from many movies and TV productions. The route has plenty of scenery, but it still feels like an outdoor ranch adventure, so wear clothes and shoes that can handle dirt.
