Departs from: Kipu Ranch Adventures

This 3-hour Ranch Tour is our most popular tour. After instruction and some practice time you embark on an exciting journey through the diverse landscape and history that makes Kipu one of the top eco-tours in the state of Hawaii today.

You share the area with cattle, wild pigs, pheasants, peacocks, and wild turkeys. Many movies were filmed on Kipu Ranch and the ranch tour takes you to some of those locations.

Our guides are often the highlight of the tour as they share history and legends and point out some of the more interesting sites, medicinal plants, and photo spots. They are skilled at getting you comfortable, keeping you safe, and making the tour fun for everyone. The 3-hour Ranch Tour includes the incredible view of Kipu Kai from the top of the mountain, scenery through the forests, and views along the Hule'ia river to the Indiana Jones Swing. The Ranch Tour has some challenging terrain but as a tour, it is kept at a safe speed. Whether you are a first-timer or a seasoned rider, you'll love the scenery and trails.

We provide drinks and snacks as well as helmets, goggles, and bandanas. You should wear long pants and must wear closed-toe shoes. Private tours available for parties of 4 or more for $50 extra per person.

Vehicles: You may choose to do this tour on any one of the following vehicles. Please select during checkout.

ATV: The new Honda RANCHER 400 is our choice for the best ATV available for this kind of terrain and tour. The powerful 400cc engine gets you up the steep mountain trails and the fully automatic transmission makes it easy to operate. The ATV also has push-button on/off select 4-wheel drive for the slippery spots on our tours. The lower ground clearance wide wheelbase makes this machine very stable. You MUST be at least 16yrs old to operate an ATV. Participants between the ages of 16-18 need a parent/guardian's signature and must have a valid picture ID for proof of age. We check ID with no exception.

Rhino: The 660cc Yamaha Rhino is the most comfortable ride we have. A favorite for riding double, this 2-passenger side-by-side seating ATV is awesome. Fully automatic transmission lets this all-ATV machine drive like a car, featuring bucket seats and a steering wheel, which makes this simpler and safer than a regular ATV. Drivers MUST be over 21, related to underage passengers, and have a valid picture ID for proof of age. We check ID with no exception.

Rhino Safari: The 660cc Yamaha Rhino is the most comfortable ride we have. A favorite for riding families, this 4-passenger ATV is awesome. Fully automatic transmission lets this all-ATV machine drive like a car, featuring bucket seats and a steering wheel, which makes this simpler and safer than a regular ATV. Drivers MUST be over 21 and related to underage passengers. Backseat passengers MUST not exceed 200lbs. Driver must have a valid picture ID for proof of age. We check ID with no exception.

Bomber: Our newest ATV, the Bombardier Outlander MAX is the premiere 2-person ATV. Great for couples, this machine features very comfortable independent suspension and is fully automatic with on/off selection 4-wheel drive. Passenger enjoys an elevated rear seat with backrest and independent handhold. Both driver & passenger MUST be at least 18yrs of age on this vehicle.

Mule: Our guide-driven 4-passenger Kawasaki Mule is great for the kids or anyone who would rather watch the scenery than the road. The Mule is still an ATV, so you may get bounced around a little and a bit dirty (sometimes a lot dirty), and you still need to wear a helmet.

Note: Children under the age of 5yrs are not permitted to participate in this tour. 5yrs olds must be accompanied by a paying adult on any vehicle. Drivers MUST be at least 16yrs of age to operate ATV. ID is mandatory for all drivers. We do not allow pregnant women, those with a history of back/knee problems or any serious health conditions. Closed-toe shoes are mandatory. Long pants are recommended although optional. Please bring sunscreen & bug repellent for your comfort.
