FILM LOCATIONS · OAHU FILM LOCATION TOURS
This is the shortlist you would send the friend who has seen it more times than you: 6 oahu film location tours worth the money, each with its price and the one thing to know before the date is fixed.
Ride a vintage school bus through 4,000-acre Kualoa Ranch with an English-speaking guide. See filming sites from Jurassic Park, Jumanji, Pearl Harbor, Lost, and Hawaii Five-O, visit a WWII bunker, and enjoy views of Kaneohe Bay, Mokoli’i Island, and the Ko’olau Range.
“Absolutely wonderful! It was fun seeing the sites of where movies had been filmed. Our driver was the best.”
Ride an open-air safari vehicle through Kualoa, Hakipu’u, and Ka’a’awa Valleys with a guide such as Bri, Ian, or Garrett. See Jurassic Park and Jurassic World filming sites, including the Indominus Rex paddock, bunkers, cages, and the T-Rex ambush area.
“What an awesome tour ! The sceneries were beautiful. It takes you directly into jurassic park & our tour guide matt was awesome. What a spectacular tour to have gone on & the story about the mountains is beautiful. Ask many questions because the area is full of history.”
Ride through Kualoa Ranch in an open-air safari vehicle with an English-speaking guide. See locations from Jurassic Park, Jumanji, Godzilla, Kong: Skull Island, and Finding ʻOhana, visit a WWII bunker, and pause for wide mountain and ocean views.
“I got picked up bang on time and the drive to the location was absolutely gorgeous ! The tour guide was awesome, telling us about the Hawaiian culture, the different places that inspired different movies and when we arrived at the ranch, the tour was well organized. The movie tour and location was absolutely stunning ! I would love to go back !”
Spend seven hours at Kualoa Ranch on three guided tours: a vintage-bus visit to movie sets, a bumpy Jungle Expedition through Hakipuʻu rainforest, and a trolley ride through fruit and flower gardens. An English-speaking guide leads each outing, with a buffet lunch included.
Ride an open-air vehicle into Kualoa Ranch’s Jurassic Valley for a 150-minute English-language tour of Jurassic Park and Jurassic World locations. Expect rainforest roads, movie props, photo stops, and wide views. Bring care for the bumps, arrive 45 minutes early, and note that hotel transfers are not included.
“Es wäre schön gewesen zu wissen, dass man sich ausweisen muss also Pass benötigt wird beim einchecken. Tour war gut, hätten gern zwei Stops mehr eingelegt. Aufgrund von starkem Regen wurden wir sehr nass im offenem Wagen ca 20 Personen.”
Fly from Oahu to Kauai for a guided day of waterfalls, chocolate tasting, Hanalei, film locations, and Kilauea Point. You’ll travel in an air-conditioned vehicle with a professional guide, but expect a 16-hour day, limited time at several stops, and lunch at your own cost.
“I would not recommend this trip if you are not currently on the big island. The tour is nearly 12 hrs. long and if you have to fly over, it's even longer. You do not see much of the volcano from a ground view. The island was interesting and there are many things to see, but not what I expected.”
