Amazing!

This app is amazing. We used it for both the north shore and Oahu east shore line. Easy to follow directions, interesting stories/facts and so many great places!

We just got back from visiting Oahu. we did the Hawaii Bundle, hoping to visit again. We loved the Northshore loop, West loop, and East shore loop, and we did part of the waikiki walking tour! it was so easy to navigate. It was precise and entertaining.. we lovingly referred to the guy giving the tour as Brada Shaka (Bro Shaka) lol. he was funny. We enjoyed the music that played in between. I am looking forward to using Shaka again for the national parks. lots of Aloha & Mahalo from Georgia!!

We stayed 3 days in Kauai and used 3 tours: North Shore Kauai, Waimea and Na Pali, Poipu and Koloa. They were all excellent! The directions were precise and the map was helpful. We enjoyed the stories, the music, and the history of Kauai.
