Board one of our custom-built jungle vehicles for this narrated back-country tour that navigates through historic Hakipu'u. Kualoa has preserved and maintained the natural beauty of the area and begun restoration of forests, which house endangered native fauna as well as Hawaiian lo'i. A personal guide drives you through isolated stream beds and tackles some rough terrain before ascending up a hill. Here you can disembark and be greeted by one of the most dramatic views of the windward coastline, where lush, undeveloped tropical valleys stretch out before you. Ancient Hawaiians considered Kualoa one of the most sacred places on the island of Oahu. It was the residence of kings, a place of refuge and sanctuary, a pu'uhonua, and a training ground for Hawaiian royalty who were instructed in the arts of war, history, and social traditions.
