Big Island Hawaii Tour Guide
Shaka Guide offers a unique way to explore the Big Island of Hawaii through their app. With the app, users can experience a guided tour with directions, stories about the places they visit, and Hawaiian music. The app features five GPS driving tours that take visitors to popular attractions, beaches, hikes, scenic spots, and cultural sites on the island.
All tours are created locally in Hawaii and include hours of audio narration that plays automatically as you drive. One of the standout features of the app is its offline functionality, allowing users to access the tours even in remote areas without Wi-Fi or data. Additionally, the tours do not expire, giving users the flexibility to use them more than once or break them up into multiple days.
The app offers a variety of tours to cater to different interests and preferences. These include the South Island Epic Coastal Journey, North Island Jungle Adventure Loop, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour, Kona Big Kahuna Tour, and the Kohala Coast Backcountry Tour. Each tour includes multiple stops and attractions along the way, offering a comprehensive exploration of the island.
Customers have praised the app, describing it as a vacation enhancer and a great way to see the island at their own pace. The tours can be purchased individually or as a bundle, in which users can get all five Big Island tours at a discounted price.
To use the app, it is recommended to download the tours before going on the trip, preferably with a Wi-Fi connection. Battery usage is optimized, but it is advised to bring a car charger to ensure uninterrupted use. It is important to note that the app is compatible with iPads, but Wi-Fi-only iPads without GPS capability will not work.
Shaka Guide is a company with a passion for connecting people with places. With over 20 audio tours, they strive to share the stories and history of Hawaii through their app.
