Great
Easy to follow directions, very informative.
Great little app
We really enjoyed the app and did all the drives it was easy to follow we got to see places we might have missed and the historical information was great - loved the app and we will use it again on our next trip
Oahu Circle Tour
Very informative app for travelling the island with local history and directions. There were places that we would have missed without the app. Coming from Australia and driving on the right hand side of the road for the first time it was great to have thorough and timely directions eg turn right after the big tree etc. This made it a lot easier to keep on the correct side of the road :) With the GPS functionality it was like having a Guide in the car with you. Also good to know that it is a Hawaiian produced app.
Great tour guide
This app was great driving around the Volcano National Park in Hilo. Just like having a personal tour.
Recommended
This is such a great audio driving guide. I really recommend it for Anton visiting Hawaii. I used the Volcano National Park tour on Hawaii Island plus to other tours on other islands and they were all fantastic! Excellent directions, beautiful background/history/cultural stories and fun for the whole family.
This is a great app
We decided to do the volcano tour on Big Island and were looking for some on-line information when we came across this app. It made our day! It was easy to use, easy to listen to, and very informative. Once we got it going the narration would just start up whenever an interesting landmark was coming up. Direction were clear and the stories were fun. Very clear instructions on what to do before starting out, how to Bluetooth it to the car and how it operates using GPS without using up data. Although it suggested downloading before getting on the road we started out before reading the instructions and found ourselves in low signal heading south of Kona and the download of the app was slow, but as soon as we got into good signal at Captain Cook it finished downloading and we didn't miss a thing. This is my first trip to Big Island and this tour and Shaka Guide were a highlight. Highly recommended.
