I happened upon the Shaka Guide app minutes before leaving for Red Rock Canyon. It made our day trip so much better! The narration was so interesting. We learned so much! I’ll definitely be using this app for other locations!

We used the Shaka guide in Maui for the Road to Hana 8 years ago and loved it. So we decided to try it again for the Big Island. We did the North island jungle loop tour today. It was so informative, easy to follow, and we all loved it. Even my impossible to please 16 year old daughter mentioned how cool it is- she was so into it, and was listening to every word and wanted to stop at all the stops. It was a great guide, we had a great day! Can’t recommend this enough. I bought the BI package, and we will be using the other tours this trip as well.

Have used the app twice and find it an excellent way to get tips on upcoming stops on the route and history tidbits about the area

We had a blast on Kuai with this app! We were thrilled with the GPS tracking and the stories were cheesy and fun. We are so glad we met someone who recommended it. We will do the same for others. Thank you. or should we say Mahalo nui!
