Do you get a bit muddy? Is the Ranch hard to find? Are you able to stop for pictures? Is there only a 2 hour tour available?
@MacKenzieTaylorMartin Жыл бұрын
You can! We brought a change of clothes with us. The Ranch is super easy to find. They stop sometimes for photos at lookout spots. There is nothing longer than a 2 hour tour.

You drive your own ATV per party. The guide is on a 4-Wheeler in the front of the line.

This is the DVC tower, and it was garden view. We were on the 5th floor I believe.

Im only going to spend one night at Aulani, do you recommend that I spend all day to absorb all that resort has to offer or do you think I will be bored and should I do what you did. Go out to the Jurrasic park tour and come back to relax? (We are a couple with no children) Thanks!
@MacKenzieTaylorMartin2 жыл бұрын
It honestly depends on what sort of vacation you’re looking for. Aulani has a ton to do, especially now with things opening up. But it’s also super relaxing and could easily be spent all day by the pool or ocean. Aulani is actually pretty far from everything. Ko Olina is it’s own little area on the island, so nothing is convenient to get to. I would say getting to Kualoa took about 45-an hour from Aulani. BUT…I could also spend all day at Kualoa, and wish I did.

Did you stop at the Kong bones?
@MacKenzieTaylorMartin2 жыл бұрын
Everything was sort of in the same area like that, but we passed by a few scenes with big bones and skulls as well. I believe the full skull and rib cage is a drive by area, not a stop.

There are multiple stops along the way for photo ops and a quick rest, or to switch drivers.

I have 2 questions. Did you have a guide to follow? Is there any narration?
@MacKenzieTaylorMartin2 жыл бұрын
During the actual driving, there is no narration, but we followed our guide, and made stops throughout the tour and they gave some history/narration at that point.

@MacKenzieTaylorMartin2 жыл бұрын
The only place we stopped at that was Jurassic World was the little place I showed in the video. BUT, every tour guide is different and there are stops that some skip and some go to. There is a Jurassic Tour that stops at most locations known to fans, but it is not in the ATV.

is there an option to ride a dirt bike instead of utvs on this trail?
@MacKenzieTaylorMartin2 жыл бұрын
This is a guided tour. They do not let you just ride on the trails without a guide. I believe the only option is the UTV.

How tight were the seatbelts? Do you have to where them? I’m concerned with not being able to buckle them.
@MacKenzieTaylorMartin2 жыл бұрын
They locked in place after you put them on, but you want them secured with how bumpy it is. The staff is super kind and helpful at the ranch, so I’m sure if you called, they would be able to advise you better. There are tours you can do that are without seatbelts as well. They are group tours in more of an open air bus, and they take you to some spots around the ranch you may recognize. I think if you can, just get to the property and do something, somehow. This side of the island is insanely different and beautiful than the side that Waikiki & Honolulu is on. It’s worth the drive, and the ranch is a perfect place to relax or have adventure.

The original Jurassic Park wasn't really filmed on this location. It was filmed on a different island. There are signs, and when you stop, the guides tell you what you are looking at.

Was driving in the ATV painfully bumpy? Did it feel like you were getting tossed around or was it pretty easy going?
@MacKenzieTaylorMartin2 жыл бұрын
You’re not speeding, but you are on trails that are uneven. You don’t really get bounced around since you are buckled in, but it’s definitely not a smooth ride. Painful? Not at all.

Hi MacKenzie. I know this video is older, but I hope you see this comment and can answer my question. I'm going to visit family in Hawaii and I am on the larger side. Do you think a heavy person could fit in the seat belt? I don't consider you big at all I just know for a fact I am myself and really don't want to pay almost $600 for this experience but not be able to do it lol I tried emailing the company a few weeks ago but haven't heard anything so now I'm looking to people who have experienced it and what they thought of the seatbelts. Take care!
@MacKenzieTaylorMartin Жыл бұрын
$600?! They've really upped the price from when we did it! I would say the seatbelt does stretch, but depending on where you carry your weight, it would be fine. The seatbelts do lock, like a car, for safety. You do stop every so often as well to get out and get adjusted if you needed to.
