My son and I are huge Jurassic Park fans so there was no way that we were going to miss the opportunity to see some filming locations from that movie and other major films and tv series! Skull Island, Lost, Hawaii 5-0, King Kong and Jurassic World are just a few of the other filming sites we were able to see.

First stop was the WW2 bunker which ended up hosting a lot of films. We also saw Mr Miyagi’s Home in Karate Kid which was beautiful.

My Girlfriend and I took a trip to the Island in April 2017, and we booked ourselves on a tour package. I forget the package name, but it consisted of a guided truck tour of the jungle, a ATV guided tour around the valley, and a Film Tour around the old war bunkers and the Valley once again.
