This was an amazing tour! It covered so much and gave some great lesser known but still exceptional spots to pull off.

Very nice and helpful

Great

We used Shaka on three of the Hawaiian islands and recently purchased the National Parks collection. We wished we would have had them sooner for all the parks we already visited in years past. On the most recent trip we did the Crater Lake and Lassen Volcanic National Park tours. They were both amazing. So cool to have some history, music, and tips for good stops and hikes. Highly recommend their tours. We want to revisit some again just to listen to the tours.

How do you make a trip to Hawaii even better? With this great app! Gray was our companion, friend, comedian, and trusted counselor. Highly recommend.

The app works great, the GPS is accurate, the stops are well done, and the vibe is perfectly Hawaiian. However, it is so hard to plan as a family of four with young kids. Trying to figure out when to eat, when to start, and how long each tour actually takes is frustrating, especially when caught in areas on Maui without cell reception. The FAQs and the “Read this before you go” aren’t enough and there was one tour that said it would take 4-6 hours and caused a panic when the audio said to plan for half a day to a full day! Suggestion: each tour should include a recommended amount of time to spend at each official stop. A minimum time (to more likely hit the 4 hour range for example) and a maximum amount of time (to hit the 6 hour range). You already have the drive time, and doing so would make it easier to decide when to start to match up with lunch/dinner. We ended up doing the tour in 4 hours but skipped two towns and two trails.

We loved this guided tour of Volcano National Park! The GPS-triggered points of interest executed flawlessly at each marker, even when there was no cell service. The tour features information about each stop, Hawaiian history, and cultural mythology… all interspersed with lovely Hawaiian music to accompany the drive. This is an excellent tour to take when you don’t want to go with a tour group. There was enough information to lead us to many points of interest, and it gave us history and context for each stop. I purchased the Big Island bundle, and I’m looking forward to trying one or two more guided tours before my vacation is over. The guide/narrator had a fun and approachable voice, and it felt like having a private tour guide in my own car. The app works flawlessly with CarPlay, so I was able to see the map and the stops easily on my car display. I will look for other tours when I’m on the islands again!

Shaka Guide has always been top notch. We love the information, the music, how accurate the gps is, and how many things we would have missed without Shaka guides help. Definitely recommend!

Highly recommend this app, very detailed and informative. Love the storytelling and history of Hana and Maui.
