Hawaiian honeymoon
We researched what we wanted to visit on Kauai but never would’ve been able to do them all without the ShakaGuide driving tour. Clear directions, options for personalization, and so much history. I can’t wait to use it again as we visit National parks on the mainland!

Shaka Guide is an excellent travel app that we’ve used in Hawaii and in several national parks across the United States. It works especially well for families because it feels like having a personal guide with you throughout the trip. The app provides clear directions, interesting stories, and helpful tips at exactly the right moments, which makes exploring new places much easier and more enjoyable. Whether you’re driving through scenic routes or visiting major landmarks, Shaka Guide adds structure, fun, and educational value to the experience. It has become one of our go-to tools for family travel.

We’ve done several Shaka Tours now on Maui and other islands. Always informative, interesting, and a bit humorous. I always recommended this app to any of my friends traveling to Hawaii. And now with the other National Parks being added to the program, it’s getting even better! Thanks Shaka Guide.
