- P2969XFlisac00This helped us be efficient and see EVERYTHING!This was a fantastic way to see the sites, get lots of background knowledge, know where the bathroom stops are and all the "extras" such as recommended hikes, spots to eat, etc.
- hellomoto8800Highly recommendThis last minute purchace was so worth it. It knows where you are and starts the tour accordingly. Lots of great information that we would not have known about otherwise. We used it for 5 straight days. It is able to guide you depending on how much time you have available for various stopping points.
- MonteandBobbi00Great way to experience Mt Lemmon!The trip up and down was great using this app and tour. We learned a ton of stuff, got tips for the stops, and kept everyone interested up and down. I liked that we could pause the tour whenever we wanted and it would pick back up wherever we were. Only issue we had was stopping at some view points that were on the opposite side of the road that seemed a bit careless on s shaped winding roads.
- breathedeeply1800Great, affordable, interesting tour!We rented a camper and downloaded the driving tours to explore Kauai. We were highly impressed at the quality and depth of the narrative, the bridge music, and suggestions offered. We had a few issues getting started with the download but found live, courteous help easily though the app. It was overall easy to use and enhanced our short driving trip greatly. We learned so much about the history, geography and sites to see from this driving tour. Highly recommended.
- 660bradleyj00Fantastic Tour of SaguaroIncredible tour of Saguaro National Park, my wife and I absolutely loved it. Certainly worth every penny for a great experience!
- CactusPatch00Shaka Guide gives you the tour Plus!We have been touring around taking self guided GPS driven driving and walking tours. We have have noticed is the Shaka Guide tours give you a lot. For instance, the local Sedona Arizona self guided tours have the highlights, Village of OakCreek thru Sedona, maybe Red Rock Loop, thru Oak Creek Canyon and to the Lookout. Shaka has all that plus Jerome! The tour could easily be two or three days with all the stops and walks one can do. The technology is a huge factor. We have been on some well meaning but not well support walking tours and you can tell the technology and support is lacking. However Shaka tech works just a you would expect. Finally, I find Shakas content to be a little more zippy. Some of the other tours sort of old guidebookish. Meaning the solid basics. Shaka ads zip including ideas on where and what to eat. The specifics help give an idea of where you are and what to be on the look out for. Love Shaka Guide!
- G9486AQdavids00Awesome Guide!Absolutely fantastic guide. A brilliant guide for independent travellers and a must use if you are curious and want to learn! We have travelled to over 100 countries and it would have been fantastic to have had this earlier in our travelling holidays.
- kiepou00great self tour optionwe have used Shaka Audio guide twice in Hawaii. one in Maui for five tours and once in Kauai for three tours. easy to download and play from car radio. guides voice and commands are easy to listen to and you can stop and start at your leisure
- Sevo214700Use Apple Maps Don’t bother Shaka was a Shocker.The Gide starts by directing you to the starting point via maps then doesn’t recognise you are at the starting point. When you try to join the tour it fails to recognise this. When we finally got it working it instructed a dangerous turn ohh the freeway to a looked gate of a closed garden. Cost $29.99 US for an outdated useless guide that is in my opinion dangerous to use. Plan your own trip and use Apple Maps adding stops along the way. Very disappointing.
- 210DonnaS00A great help after the initial frustrationI found the app a bit frustrating in the beginning because I had purchased the app months ahead of my planned vacation to Hawaii so I had time to familiarize myself; however upon arrival unto the island of Oahu I couldn't get the app to work correctly. I had the phone number for the company with me so I called only to discover they were closed on Sunday. So I left a message on their emergency line for help but no one ever called me back until 2 days later. That was very frustrating! I needed immediate help while I was on the circle island tour and no one was available. I found out that I had to delete the app and upload it again in order to get it to work correctly since I had purchased it so far ahead. Even though I had done an update I still had to delete the app and upload again. Once I did that the app worked fine. So after the beginning frustration it worked great and I would recommend it. We did the circle island tour, the walking tour of Honolulu, the North shore tour and used it whenever we were driving around the island. The stories you hear along the way are fun and entertaining. The GPS navigation is great; especially when you aren't familiar with the area. And the Hawaiian music sets the mood for the day of your adventure.
- 310ambero00Couldn't listen to this tour. Narrator was terrible.I've used another guide app for past trips (Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Utah's Mighty 5, Canadian Rockies) and have always enjoyed it. I read the positive reviews of Shaka Guide, and I decided to give it a try for something a little different. Neither my husband nor I liked this tour at all. The narrator used a cheesy Hawaiian accent, similar to a 'surfer dude.' The stories were goofy, and the worst part was it was unclear when to turn off for a sight. After one day, I purchased the guide app I used for past trips. It's so much better.
- blythwood00Shaka audio tours- Easy, fun, informative, economical! What's not to like???!I would highly recommend using Shaka guides self driving audio tours. We used them for exploring the east and north shores of Oahu, and found it extremely user friendly, useful, informative and enjoyable. A great ( and economical) alternative to booking guided tours. I will definitely look for the Shaka guides for future destinations!
- 1savoy00Enjoyed the tours!We found the audio tour very easy to use…no problems with “turn here” suggestions coming too late to make designated turns. Maybe others were driving too fast? Anyway, lots of good history info we would never have had just driving around and the cost can’t be beat vs an organized tour group. I recommend👍🏻
- rubieskye00Beautiful,But…Beautiful area , went to watch the sunset . It was so crowded and people just posted up in the choice spots. Kids were running around… I would get up early to see sunrise instead…
- ltrax00Great overview of the islandDue to the recent Maui fires our trip was pivoted to Oahu. We didn't do any research before we traveled. Found this audio driving tour and decided to download. Since this gave a nice overview of many areas of the island we could decide what we wanted to re-visit later. The app was easy to use and the voice instructions were very clear and direct. We enjoyed the anecdotes and little history/stories along the way. Definitely worth it.

Using this audioguide made our trip so much better than it would have been if we had not purchased this. We had never been to Maui so we did not know the history of the Road to Hana and this made it very entertaining even for our nine-year-old.
We listened to it all the way there and all the way back. It even knows where you stop and start so you don’t get behind or ahead of where you’re located.
It also gives great advice and you can tell that some people don’t know all of the stops that he mentioned because some stops were less crowded than others.
This is perfect for a family and it’s funny and entertaining.

All of the Shaka guide audio tours were terrific! They were very interesting to listen to, full of great information and amusing stories. They were also very helpful with directions, telling us where to park and about hidden gems to do or see. We listened to them in The Volcano National Park on the Big Island and or our drive on Northside from Hilo to Kona. We also used them on our sunset trip up Mt Haleakala and the Road to Hana in Maui. Highly recommend!

Ok, this dude for sure doesn’t want tourists to make many stops. He tells you all this cool stuff but then says hey man don’t recommend as there is better stuff down the road! A little annoying because there really isn’t better stuff down the road. He also repeated himself about being nice and respectful to the locals, which is good to do, but almost gives you a guilt trip for being a tourist but apparently wants to make $ off you. I did like the history he shares.

I searched for hours reading up on something different to do that we haven't done in Maui. We decided on the self guided tour to The Complete Road to Hana. First off, the app is a little confusing and the music was like I listening to music when your put on hold. The stops that sounded fun, were not worth getting out of your car. We spent a total of $70 dollars for a 10 minute stop in 2 state parks just to use the restroom. I realize we are in Hawaii but the waterfalls back home in Yosemite National Park are 100 times better and bigger. For people that are scared of other cars, windy narrow roads...STAY OFF THE ROAD or be considerate and pull over so people can pass!!! On the site it shows tons of spots to stop at, well, a lot of them counted as a song. There are no parking spots to stop and take pictures of most of the waterfalls and the "lava cave" thats is only a small hole in a rock located on the narrow road at a sharp curve in the road would have been over looked if it wasn't for the group of people standing in the road almost getting hit. What topped it all off to validate that we weren't being just boring critical people was at the very last stop, the narrator basically said, " Thank goodness for great advertisement from a good marketing team." Nothing looked like any of the pictures that were advertised. 6 hours I can't get back and thank God it was only $20 and we were in our own car.

I am so happy that we chose to purchase this $20 Road to Hana tour from Shaka Guide. Without it, we would have missed so much and it would've been a completely different experience. Everyone in the car (me, my wife, and two teenage boys) were captivated for the entire 12 hours that we drove through the windy turns. This is absolutely a MUST HAVE if you are planning to spend a day in the car with the family.

Hello everyone and congratulations for your hard work towards creating one of the best app in the traveling industry. I’ve bought all the Shaka tours for the island of Maui in 2019 and we have already used most of them. In 2022 we visited Oahu and Kauai and we have also gotten all the tours for both islands! Forget the money because every cent was worth it! We have visited many parts of the world but we never had such a feeling of being on a real vacation as while going on your tours and listening along the route. You cannot find anywhere else a guide so complete for this amount.
The tours are funny, entertaining and full of information that would take many hours to read. We traveled with children and they had fun listening to Shaka. The apps are working very well and we were very happy using them. Good luck to the whole team! Daniel from Montreal, Canada

I would rate this a 5 IF it would have worked! No matter what the company says, this App will NOT Work on the road to Hana. You have to have complete cell reception in order for it to track your GPS. I did everything the company said to do by downloading it and using it prior to trip to make sure it would work and it did. But once on the Road to Hana, it could not connect with my GPS location in order to start the tour. However, I do plan to listen to it now that I am back home so I can connect the information with our Road to Hana Experience. We did complete the Road to Hana on our own, which I would do EVERY TIME! The ability to make the stops that we wanted to and climb waterfalls and blowholes ourselves was the perfect way to experience the Road to Hana with our activite adult family. I was also very disappointed that our Enterprise rented vehicle did not offer bluetooth connection, so even if the GPS would have worked, there was NO WAY to have been prepared with the non-blue tooth car rental. I would have brought the correct connecting cord! So keep all that in mind if you do purchase a Shaka Product.

We're sorry to hear you were not able to fully enjoy your Shaka Guide tour. Our app recently experienced some technical difficulties but we've managed to fix it right away. Wish you would have contacted us at that time so we could have made guided you in deleting the app and installing the latest version and made sure the app and tour would work for you.

This app was recommended to us. It was one of the most valuable things we had on our Road to Hana! I had a AAA Triptik which was horrible. Thank goodness we downloaded and purchased the Classic Tour to Hana. We wanted to the Loop Tour but the Shaka app told us there was a road closure due to mudslides. We never would have know that with the Triptik. The Shaka guide was so informative telling little stories about Hawaii and the area as we passed them. Things we never would have know without the guide. Highly recommend and so affordable. Can’t go wrong.

I bought the three Road to Hana driving option tour. This tour guide program is worth every penny you spend on it! I really wish I had used the tour in Oahu too. We loved the stories and since there is no cell service it made us very comfortable as it lead us through the roads and off road attractions too. I highly recommend that if you are going to do the Road to Hana that you use this. The guide tells you all the stops and what to see along the way as well.

Is this tape available in Spanish or only English? We are going to visit Maui and one member of our group only speaks Spanish so we were thinking of getting this tape or the 6 in 1 tape for her benefit, however ate the last second we noted apparently these tapes appear to be in English.
