As you walk, the app shares stories, history, local insights, and directions based on where you are. We’ve planned the route for you, but you can still explore at your own pace, pause the tour, skip stops, or spend more time wherever you like.

It’s not just about getting there—it’s about discovering the stories behind the places you’re visiting.

Think of us as your personal tour guide in an app. Our tours provide everything a guided tour does, but with the freedom to explore on your terms. Here’s how it works:


  • GPS triggers audio narration to play automatically as you drive or walk. Listen to stories, get local insights, visit must-see stops and get turn-by-turn navigation.
  • The app works offline so even with spotty service we’ll get you where you need to go.

Pretty cool huh? We think so! Check out our tours and let’s explore together.

Highly recommend this as an option. We got to be in our own rental car. We took it at our own pace. Does not need cell service or WiFi. It goes off your GPS. So much historical info and get recommendations.

The Shaka app was easy to use, the guides were extremely knowledgeable. We enjoyed the music and stories between the stops. The best part was finding unique stops and sites that we weren’t in our original plans. Can’t wait to take them along on future trips!

National park will never be the same. If you are thinking about it get it you will love it. I have used it for 3 years and new park are being added. The story, landmarks, history you get it all. I give it 5 + star

The app was exactly what I needed. Of course I gravitated to it because it’s Shaka! Very informative very easy to use. I would keep the app on my phone and use it when I go to other areas that I will visit in the future. Shaka Brah

We have used this in Hawaii for the Road to Hana and now Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks. It makes the rides so informative, fun and navigates perfectly.

I originally purchased the Shaka Guide during a spontaneous New Years trip to Hawaii which quickly turned into 10 days of island hopping… …I was so impressed with those audio tours from our Hawaii trip, I recently added the Shaka Guide Tours for our trip to Glacier National Park - the audio tours are highly informative, entertaining, humorous (at times) and very accurate (based on GPS location). There is no cellular service within Glacier National Park, but as long as the Shaka Guide is downloaded prior to absence of service, the tours have no issues - our tour for Going to the Sun Road lasted for the full two hour drive with multiple pauses (for hikes / photos / shopping) from West to St Mary’s without missing a beat (the entire duration was closer to 6 hours). I could not recommend the Shaka Tour Guide higher - very well researched, commentated, and accurately laid out. I will definitely be purchasing more Shaka Tours in the future…

We first found out about Shaka Guide before our trip to Maui a couple years ago. From our 10-year-olds up to our 18-year-olds and ourselves, we all really enjoyed the guide, commentary, etc for our trip to Maui. Fast forward to last summer and we went to Glacier national Park and my son said it would be cool if there was a Shaka Guide for here… i’m glad we looked because we bought that Parks tour and it was equally informative and entertaining. This morning, I purchased Big Bend National Park, we used it for the Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive today and will use it again tomorrow in the park. This really is one of the best apps! The whole family loves it.

We’ve used Shaka at Yellowstone, Arches, and Glacier and it’s the best part of our vacation. The history, the stops, the directions are all amazing. The voices on Shaka are not boring or monotonous but engaging and easy listening. Don’t hesitate! Shaka 🤙 Doesn’t disappoint!

Purchased the Glacier National Park guide, and it was absolutely wonderful. Full of information and downloadable when out of cell phone range. The navigation was spot on, and it was great knowing the background and history of each stop. Highly recommend!!
