Honestly, words fail me because this guide is ingenious!!! Cheers to the 🤙🏽 team for such amazing and fun way to tour places. I used it for my recent solo Oahu trip and drove through the East and North shore! From Uncle Shaka's brilliant narrative skills, jokes, stories, to the sites, views, highlights, background music, and all, My God! There was never a dull moment! I could drive all day! 😄😄 In fact, at different stops, I started encouraging folks to download the Shaka Guide app! 😃

Loved these self-driving tour bc we get to explore on our own time and make stops whenever we want. We did the North Shore Oahu tour and it was a pleasure :)

Love Shaka!

We really love Shaka Guide tour. This is Our second time to purchase this app. We got the Shaka Oahu Bundle tour first, then this Shaka Maui Bundle tour. Best self guided tour ive found. You can’t miss any attraction on the island/s and will even suggest some good eats along the way. Shaka is so entertaining and we learned a lot about the Hawaiian cultures and legends. And we really appreciate the Hawaiian background music as well. So worth it! Mahalo Shaka!

What is an Audio Tour Guide?

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.
