One of the top highlights of our Hawaii trip last year was the ATV (all-terrain vehicle; resembles an open jeep) ride in Jurassic Valley at the Kualoa Ranch.
My friend and I took turns driving the ATV through sandy, rugged, narrow roads, between pit stops. This went into my list of ‘things I did for the first time ever’. It made for an entertaining ride, with the beautiful backdrop of tall cliffs, lush greenery, and wavy mountains.
‘Kualoa’ in Hawaiian translates to ‘long back.’ Our guide told us this, along with a mythological story about the Kualoa mountains, and about the volcanic formations in the island in general.
This ranch is a popular shooting spot for various Hollywood movies, the most well-known one being the Jurassic World trilogy. At each pit stop, we visited various dinosaurs, the T-Rex, velociraptors, and herbivores such as brachiosaurs.
Overall, a must-do, adrenaline-filled, unforgettable experience!
