Great Virtual Tour Guide
We bought the Shaka audio guide to the Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island. It was a great experience. It was comprehensive and entertaining. We toured through the park and we had a better experience for having used it. The price was very reasonable.

My husband and I truly enjoyed exploring the islands. The directions were great and the narration was informative and entertaining. We enjoyed being able to spend as little or as much time as we wanted at each stop. I would highly recommend.
