I heard about this app through ChatGPT and I was kind of skeptical, but to be honest, this is one of the most clutch things that we had for the entire Road to Hana ride because it told us every stop to make, and when to do it and they gave us history of Hawaii as we drove compared to just either listening to random music or just listening to no music and just being in silence

a wonderful app and a fun experience. My son and I had so much fun driving in the Shenandoah National Park with it. The only problem, well, actually two problems: 1. uses a lot of battery, so I probably need to run it on my backup phone in the future; 2. How come I didn't know about this great app while I was visiting the other 38 National Parks?!

We enjoyed the information we could hear. Unfortunately in many areas the GPS didn’t sync up with the phone and information wasn’t played. I have an iPhone and Verizon phone service.

Discovered Shaka four years ago when in Maui. Purchased the Road to Hana guide and it was outstanding. Loved it so much that we stayed on the backside of the tour. We’re in Palm Springs this week, and visited JTNP today. Last minute decision to purchase the Shaka tour for the park. Honestly made the trip much more enjoyable - and efficient. I can’t fathom why anybody wouldn’t use this guide for this particular NP. Thank you for a great day, and well not make the mistake of traveling without Shaka in the future!

Our family has loved the 4 drives we took with the Shaka Guide and look forward to more to come! The stories are great and we feel like we are on a tour with a local guide!

We love Shaka Guides. Joshua Tree tour was excellent. We only did the Western to Northern loop. Wish we had more time to do the Southern entrance loop. Content, music, stories - all informative and interesting. The only thing was that the app did not pair well with Apple Car Play. It was glitchy. Every time the guide talked, it would switch to my phone. I had to pause and play for it to go back thru Apple Car Play. A little annoying. Overall an excellent tour. Can’t wait to do another one.

Shaka is fabulous!! We used it in Hawaii, and now in some national parks. It absolutely makes the experience so much better by giving information before and during your stops. The GPS is amazing. if you go off track it picks as soon as you're back on. Absolutely recommend!!! 👍 👍
