We have visited and toured Maui many times. We used the Shaka Guide for the first time and it added tremendous value and entertainment to our trips to Hana and the Haleakala national park. It’s worth every dollar.
Really excellent experience with Shaka Guide on Road to Hana. I read reviews of a few other guides but am so glad we chose Shaka. App keeps track of exactly where you are so narration and suggestions are right when you need them. Enjoyable stories and history. My only critique would be that they back off naming names when the record is clear. Say it was the US who stormed the palace— not just “ non Hawaiians” — and the big 5. Name Dole and C&H and the unnamed shipping cos . It’s history. Facts matter.
Have driven Hana multiple times but always easily miss spots we wanted to visit. Shaka guide made sure we knew where every stop was and made finding it really easy. Loved the playlist and little history parts too. Highly recommend!
We were told by locals that this app was a must- provides wonderful directions, stop recommendations and historical background along your trip. Shaka guide is a must to get the full experience of the road to Hana
my partner & i started using shaka guide when we toured olympic national park last summer, and so we did it again for mt rainier national park this year! we were pleased to hear that the tour guide narrator was the same person as olympic because his voice is so soothing, his inflections are adorable, and his excitement got us excited! doing the guided tour helped the long drives pass by quickly, and we got to check out a lot of little sites we would have otherwise skipped. we always look forward to the tour guides every time we travel to a national park (: thanks guys!! (also shout out whoever put in the ice caves song by concerned ape in the rainier tour)
We traveled to South and North Dakota and used Shaka Guide for Mt Rushmore/Black Hills, Badlands SD and Theodore Roosevelt National Park. It was awesome and made a planning the tours simple. I am a huge researcher when it comes to trips and I loved that I could use this app to guide me along the way giving me the “stop here” or “okay to skip if you want”. There were some stops nobody else was at in the Black Hills that I may have missed without this. History lessons and music along the way were well done. All around, give this app a solid 10.
