Which Kualoa tour is the best?

The Movie Sites and Ranch Tour is Kualoa's most popular experience and the best starting point for first-timers. Priced at 0–60, it covers the valley locations used in Jurassic Park, Lost, 50 First Dates, and dozens of other productions via open-air bus. The ATV tour (30–150) is the top-rated activity for thrill-seekers — the off-road mountain circuit through the Ko'olau foothills has dramatic scenery and more excitement than Coral Crater's equivalent. The Jungle Expedition Jeep tour (5–120) takes smaller groups into areas the bus tour doesn't reach. For families, the Movie Sites tour plus ocean kayaking makes an excellent full-day combination. The Movie Sites tour is the best introduction to Kualoa; the ATV tour is the best adventure activity. Reservations are essential — popular tours sell out weeks ahead.
