I haven't tried the UTV, but I think this was better. It was so great. You can ignore the people who make a fuss about the helmet smell and you don't need to bring a handkerchief. No foreigners use them. And the product description here says to wear long pants, so I did, but no foreigners wore them. The product description should be revised. The instructors were friendly, safe, and fun.

I participated with my mother on our first trip to Hawaii. I was very satisfied because we were taken to places that we could not easily visit on our own, and we were able to get around efficiently. Everyone who participated with us was lovely, and we had a very enjoyable time. Thanks to Jona-san, who was perfect with his consideration and stories, it became the best memory. Thank you very much♪

This was worth the money I paid for four adults! drive your own UTV even if you’re scared. I’m not the most confident driver, but this was one of the best experiences, even if it rained like crazy halfway through! can confirm the path is safe! the clouds and rain created a moody atmosphere and the scenes at the ranch were breathtaking! our guides Toa and Makoa knew their legends of the locations so well, made us laugh, took photos of our group, and ensured we stayed safe! It was amazing, we had so much fun. for my fellow short people, I’m 5ft1 and had to sit more forward on the seat to reach the pedals (just keep in mind for my fellow shorter friends! especially if you’re concerned about sitting up the entire time and having no backrest!) but otherwise, I have no regrets! this was such a beautiful experience! please do it and support the ranch! hot tip for those staying in Waikiki and you didn’t rent a car, we recommend reserving/scheduling an uber to and from the ranch!

This was a tour that the whole family enjoyed. The natural scenery was amazing, and the kids really loved all the places that appeared in movies. The guide was also fun and great. I didn't realize how quickly time flew by. ^^

The tour with the wonderful scenery of Hawaii was the best. Because there were only a few participants, the atmosphere was friendly and I enjoyed it very much. In particular, the guide cheerfully taught me a lot about Hawaii, and I had a fun time in the car. I enjoyed delicious food and shopping, and also enjoyed the nature of Hawaii that I could not experience in Honolulu, so I sincerely recommend it.
