North Shore Kauai Driving Tour

Shaka guide was amazing!

We had two days to get the most of out of our visit and Shaka was amazing. If it weren’t for this app we would’ve missed soooo much, would’ve been unable to manage our time well and never gotten the amazing stories. We LOVED the Kauai tours and did them all. The back stories were great and it was also helpful to actually hear how the towns/roads were pronounced. So helpful!The app was user friendly, just picked up right where we were and was able to use CarPlay to see the map as we went along. Highly recommend. We will be using it on other trips now too. Well designed and the narrator was amazing. So fun!

Kauai

So far the tours have been really fun and informative. We are learning more about Hawaiian culture.

We used Shaka many, many years ago on Maui and never forgot how wonderful it was. Some years later we visited Kauai and new Shaka wouldn't let us down. Of course, it was perfect. Now we're on a trip to Denver and checked out what Shaka had to offer. Rocky Mountain National Park!!! It didn't disappoint. Great narration, nice interim music, fun historical facts. I felt bad for everyone else who was just driving up the road without the benefit of what we were hearing. We LOVE Shaka Guide!

Great App

We first used this app in Kauai in Jun 2026 it was a lot of fun and we learned a lot. We are looking forward to using Shaka Guides wherever they are available. Keep up the great work.

New to Shaka

We used Shaka on our vacation to Maui and Kauai based on the recommendation of our travel agent. Wow! We had never heard of Shaka before! We have been missing out! This was a great asset to our trip!

really awesome. made our trip so much better going up. waimea canyon thumbs up to everyone involved with this app impressive

New treasures found!

We’ve been to Kauai many times and thought we knew it well. The Shaka guided tours took us to new sites and gave us very interesting Hawaiian history along the way. We love the ability to go at our own pace, spending more or less time at locations vs the schedules of much higher priced guided bus tours. We have the Kauai bundle as well as tours covering all of Oahu and the Maui Road to Hanna. 5 stars for customer service as well. We had an issue with the download to a second, backup phone. I chatted from the app and had immediate contact with a real person. Solved in 2 minutes. Thank you Shaka!!

An invaluable resource!

My wife and I first used this app in 2017 during our honeymoon in Kauai and it was super helpful and entertaining. Now in 2026 we’re touring all 5 national parks in Utah and it’s as good as I remember. This will be a staple of all future trips.

So fun!

We downloaded all the Kauai tours. We had a phenomenal day at Waimea, and visited places we wouldn’t have normally known about. Just as a heads up for kids, there’s several stories…. Everyone dies, gets their heads cut off, chokes to death, commits suicide ect.

Poipu Kauai

I thought the information was good, the stories interesting but I found that if we veered off the path of the guide, it was difficult getting back to the exact spot on the guide. Using mile markers would be helpful. We were in Poipu Kauai.
