Shaka Maui Audio Tour Guide for Positive User Reviews

✓ Enjoyed the RideOverall this app was very helpful and we loved the tips and narrative. Wouldn’t have enjoyed the day as much without the app. We would NOT recommend the Garden of Eden as he did, it cost us $40 for a family of 4, to then pay more to feed the ducks. Then a <15 minute walk to see a pretty horrible view of the Jurassic park rock and an unfulfilling view of the waterfall, which we were later told was better from the road..CheerstobeersVersion: 2.0.11

✓ Better than we could ever asked for!We recently used Shaka guide Maui and did two of the tours: road to Hana and Haleakala national park tour. We loved the guide. It allowed us to have a better tour than with a large group. From our own car and at our own pace. It provided detailed guidance turn by turn based on gps and allowed us to see hidden gems (like waterfalls and lava tubes!) that would have otherwise been missed. It had detailed information about gas, places to eat, bathrooms as well as how to divide our time wisely so we can get to all of the tour. The gps tour triggering feature was especially helpful on the road to Hana with the multiple dangerous curves and turns in an area without telephone signals. It allowed us to see all of the wonderful stops safely and enjoy every moment. We will definitely use Shaka guides again for our other vacations. We were so happy with the tours we told other tourists about it on our last day when they asked where all we had gone and how we got there..#SirinyaadventuresVersion: 1.1

✓ Good company on the road to HanaIf you’ve been trying to plan the road to Hana but you’ve been overwhelmed with the amount of reading and studying you have to do the just save time a grab this app. We did both the classic and the reverse and they’re really is so much to do and the guide just gets helps you to decide which stops to make. Plenty of stories and history to keep you busy while driving between stops too and with GPS positioning it tells you exactly where you are and where to park and lots more. Great app..BikeplusVersion: 2.0.3

✓ Excellent App!!This app was so helpful to navigate the road to Hana solo , it was so great having our own tour guide right in the car with us. Loved the info on the way back too, I’m looking forward to seeing what the other island guides have in store. ☺️🤙🏽.Sim1238910Version: 5.1.5

✓ Fantastic app!The valet at our hotel asked what we were doing that day as he pulled up our car. When we mentioned we were driving the road to Hana, he recommended this app. It MADE our trip perfect. It felt like we had the most experienced tour guide in the world with us. In addition to being very detailed and explaining each site we were coming up to, it also made recommendations on when to stop and when to keep driving (“this waterfall is ok, but you will see much better in 30 minutes...recommend not stopping“), it was also smart and funny! If you drove past a scenic spot the app knew this because the timing of the GPS indicated we kept moving, so it would say “ok, so I guess you didn’t want to see that”. Kept us engaged for 6 or 8 hours as we drove along. At one point we stopped at an overlook after we just heard the story of a church built with coral and there was a tourist with their tour guide standing next to us, and he was stumbling for a good explanation about the church, so I just started to repeat all that I just heard on the app and the tourist asked how I knew all that, and I explained about the great app while the tour guide (who knew next to nothing and was really just an overpaid Uber driver) scowled at me! Anyway, GREAT app!.Bobc85262Version: 1.5.2

✓ Awesome Road to Hana GuideThe Shaka Maui Road to Hana guide was amazing!! Everything you need to know or want to do on the road to Hana is in this app. Very detailed and highly recommended instead of the pricey tours that are available. Yes the roads can be windy but not as difficult as some people make it out to be..Simsy21Version: 8.2.1

✓ Amazing appDownloaded this for the Road to Hana loop. Amazing app that shows you so many the great spots along the way that you would otherwise miss..Al_198Version: 1.4.4

✓ Whole family enjoyed thisWe had a few technical difficulties with this at first, I think more related to our rental car’s Bluetooth than the app, but we were able to play it thru a portable speaker that we brought for the beach. Once we got it going, it was great and really informative. The Shaka guide can be a bit cheesy now and then, yes, but the provided info is really interesting. There is simply no way we would have known what was coming up, how long until the next site, where restrooms were, etc. The linkage to your GPS is sooo nice since he can then give you a timely “heads up” for upcoming pullouts and turns. This is critical on this curvy little road. It was also really helpful to know how much time we had until we reached Hana and the “end of the road” up ahead. We stayed overnight in Hana and then did Oheo pools and Pipiwai trail early the next morning which I highly recommend to avoid the crowds. On the way back the guide gives a lot of interesting history of the islands that we really enjoyed. My whole family made me promise to write a review since they felt that our drive was so enhanced by this guide, so here you go! Mahalo!.Stretch_sVersion: 1.5.1

✓ Loved it for RTHWorked great and very informative..Aus_cainVersion: 1.1

✓ AwesomeLearned a lot about the history of the area with this app. There was a lot of etiquette tips on the commentary that was also very helpful..HappyNigiriBroVersion: 8.0.1

✓ Reverse Road to Hana TourAs we had heard Maui was very crowded, especially the Road to Hana, my partner and I decided to do the reverse road to Hana tour to avoid crowds. We got this recommendation from someone on our scuba dives and decided to download it the night before without really knowing much. Best decision ever. This guide works flawlessly with or without cell signal. The stops are awesome, and remember, you can always skip stops on the way and just hear about them while driving. We got to stop at the Seven Sacred pool and the trail over there before most people were there. By the time we finished, the parking lot was so packed. Also, I’m not sure if we would’ve been able to hike the trail going the normal route as you must start it before 3pm or they lock the gates on you! So, as far as doing the normal or reverse route, there are certainly pros and cons. The ride in the beginning can be precarious and there are cows and goats crowing the road in front of you. It felt really adventurous and fun though. I wholeheartedly recommend this app. Just get it now! You don’t have to think about anything or bring any books, you just listen and the day is planned for you!.Calliiii372727737Version: 5.0.4

✓ Fab app! Just make sure you put your phone into flight modeWe used this app to do the road to Hana loop in our hire car. I must say without this app we would have missed loads of awesome sights that weren’t in our guide book. The app was really easy to use and picked up exactly where you were and told you what to look at without having to do anything. I was really impressed with how perfectly timed it was in relation to where you were on the road! The guide gives you just the right balance of information but doesn’t go into information overload. My one criticism is that we stumbled upon the known bug after the first stop where the tour tried to reinstall. We actually couldn’t get it to reinstall on my husbands phone due to the lack of signal so I ended up downloading and paying for it again on my phone. This time we made sure to put the phone onto flight mode, we did this and had no issues. If we had just used the guide book then I really don’t think we would have had as good an experience on the road to Hana! We liked the app that much that we are using it again today for the Haleakala National Park. Fab app, very innovative - well done! I think there should be more tours like this available for the people, like us, who rather go it alone than on an organised tour..Beth_PowVersion: 1.1

✓ Best Around !This app totally made our road trip to Hana totally enjoyable ! Full Of well times knowledge parking tips and turn offs leading to some of the best secrets of the Road to Hana. This is the best way to take your journey on the road to Hana! Aloha!.N.allison12Version: 1.1

✓ Great app, made a great journey greater!We really enjoyed using the app, be warned the reverse road to Hana has a road block an hour out of Hana, apparently it shuts until 4.30 pm week days. We had to turn round and drive all the way back round as we were staying overnight. Annoyingly this added 2 hours to our day... Picked the reverse road back up the next day, there certainly is much to opt in and out of! We had a mustang which was fine for the roads (none of which were impassable (we live in the UK and are used to winding roads and pit holes)..Dc70hpVersion: 1.4.1

✓ Classic road to HanaThe tour was really helpful and reviewed places we would’ve missed otherwise. It provided us with some historical background of Hawaii which was rather interesting. I think it was absolutely worth it!.ChengieGVersion: 2.0.6

✓ Absolutely fantastic appMy family and I used Shaka app for our recent trip to Maui. I can’t say enough about how helpful, entertaining and informative the app was. We bought the package of all the different tours and we ended up using almost all of them. The way the app works it was very easy for us to tailor the ones we didn’t need for a full tour to accommodate specific areas we were exploring. For the ones where we did the full tour, it was so easy to move at our own pace, and tailor it to our schedule. There is also a feature that helps you get from your location to the tour starting point that was very helpful. We also found the pieces of information about our surroundings and the history to be really interesting and an enjoyable addition in between the different stops on the tour. We have gone to Kauai for years but this was our first time in Maui and our first time using Shaka. Now we can’t wait to use it next time on Kauai to see what we may have been missing all these years!.TwogirlzzmomVersion: 5.0.4

✓ Best tour everIt is awesome, cheaper that a guide tour and really easy to set up! The Best 6$ investment here!.AlbichusVersion: 1.1

✓ Great option if you want to take your own timeGreat app and information about the routes. GPS and maps worked fine if downloaded before hand. One of the tours we did Int he reverse order and the key points were a bit out of place but otherwise great option!.AnalaudisioVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Good PurchaseGuide was great and very informative. Would recommend..NicolefladagerVersion: 6.1.0

✓ A must!Amazing helpful informations to make this trip a beautiful day!.DuboisDumontVersion: 6.0.0

✓ Shaka Road to Hana TourThe App really works and the fact it uses GPS to locate your position means you can be offline which is great as there was “no service” for my mobile the whole time we were on the road. As points of interest come up on the road the App springs into life and talks you through the location, where to park and if it is safe to swim etc. If you do the road to Hana leave early as it gets busy and you often can’t park at certain waterfalls etc as space is very limited-the road really is very twisty with single lane bridges and sections. Will test your driving ability especially in the oversized American cars! Great App, well put together-I’m getting the Big Island your next..Mallard1972Version: 1.4.4

✓ Hāna RoadWe downloaded the app to use as we had been told there was no phone coverage en-route. The commentary was informative, amusing and full of useful information..Bob & Sue's roadtripVersion: 2.0.3

✓ Perfect tour of HanaWe did the reverse loop tour to avoid some of the heavy traffic and over-crowded stop offs and it was perfect! I was really impressed with how the Shaka Guise knew exactly where we were on the Hana Highway. A few times the GPS on my phone lost track of where we were, but that’s more of a phone functionality issue than the app. But the app would just pick right up when my phone’s GPS found us. I loved all the stories and history along the way and the tips from the Shaka Guide. All around great way to do the road to Hana!.Bigblue96Version: 1.6.5

✓ Awesome appGreat way to travel the Hana Road with an expert on board to guide you to all the great spots. Music history lesson and humour all thrown in. 5 stars++.NZ Shaka BroVersion: 1.5.1

✓ FantasticMade the trip around Hana a great day experience, I couldn’t imagine doing this without the guide.DotnetnickVersion: 1.4.4

✓ SensationalI never rate apps, but this one deserves a big 🤙.De7SiechVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Best app ever!The Shaka guide to Maui is brilliant. The best travel guide that you could get, other than having a local tour guide/historian sat in your car with you! We travelled on three of Shaka's trips (Road to Hana, West Maui and Sunset at Haleakala) and each of them was interesting and amusing, and included useful tips of what was a 'must see' or what you could afford to skip if you were running short on time. In particular the road directions, including where to stop, were extremely precise. Highly recommended and well worth the small outlay to purchase this outstanding app. We are now in Waikiki and have purchased the Shaka guide to Oahu..All_lilrockerVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Awesome Tour Guide AppI highly recommend this app. We just used it for the Road to Hana and it was a wealth of information, humorous and we saw things we would have totally missed without it. Extremely accurate with where to stop giving you plenty of notice and lots of little bits of information along the way as well as amazing history. Will use again for other tours of all Hawaii Islands. Really well put together, thank you..Bec MunroVersion: 2.0.13

✓ Great, easy to use!Just a good, inexpensive way to tour Hawaii- would absolutely recommend..StarofarmVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Fantastic !!!What a great way to enjoy the Road To Hana! Pretty sure we saw everything there is to see ~ thank you!.JacobsartoriusingsVersion: 5.1.2

✓ Worth every penny!!This was by far one of the best tourist apps I have ever purchased. We drove the Hana hwy and back and loved every minute with the tour guide..MwalllinVersion: 8.0.1

✓ An absolute must!So happy we found this before our road to Hana trip! It was amazing. The stops, suggestions, and stories were fantastic!.Cindy604Version: 8.0.1

✓ AMAZING!!This app was the best! We loved all the stories of Hawaiian history and culture mixed in with the tour and music. The gps was on point at all times and seamlessly lead us on our journey. All combined made for an amazing trip to Hana. Would highly recommend (and already have). Thank you!!!.Spacey44Version: 5.1.7

✓ Don’t hesitate to get itThis app is worth every penny. It’s super relaxing the music is amazing, works flawlessly. Definitely makes you feel at home on the Hana Hwy..Rmn91Version: 6.1.0

✓ The only way to travel with the localsSo often see exploitative costs offered by tour companies when all you need is this app. It covers a lot of important stuff including geology-geography, history, economics, culture and language with local music (of good quality) thrown in - all linked to GPS. So nice to travel in the comfort of our car picking and choosing where and when to move without waiting for the interminable loading of buses of unfit overweight travellers. If we could afford a real person this good that would be perhaps better. A must for those who are on a budget or just like a smaller more intimate experience..PhilipH.Version: 1.4.4

✓ Helpful and informative. Made the trip real easy!You won’t regret it. Entertaining and surprisingly accurate..AlohaNikeVersion: 8.0.0

✓ WonderfulWas fantastic. So glad we had Shaka guide us to all the best spots.MaknedwenVersion: 5.1.4

✓ Outstanding app!We just completed the loop drive and would highly recommend using the app for this. We found some amazing stops that we could not have found without the app. Especially the Eden pool. We were the only people at the pool. Thank you so much for making the last two days so wonderful..-234kjVersion: 8.0.1

✓ Fantastic tour guide and great valuePurchased the guide for the Road to Hana for our trip 12th July 2018. Cannot recommend this enough! Found so many gorgeous spots and lots of hidden ones that everyone else drove past! You have to make sure you do Red Sea Beach!!!!.Legend340Version: 1.4.4

✓ Awesome guideSo fun to listen and learn! Had a great time on the big island and Maui with these tours and saw so many things I otherwise would have just missed!.SomayajiVersion: 5.1.4

✓ Perfect day thanks to Shaka MauiWe just completed the Road to Hana loop today and we couldn’t be happier with this guided tour. It gives you clear instructions on where to go, park, eat, stop. Without it, we would have missed so many things, and we learned so much. I highly recommend it..RAHClaireVersion: 5.1.2

✓ Excellent guideThis is 2nd time we’ve used the Shaka guides and again we were not disappointed, it’s like having your own personal tour guide in the car!! Instructions for where to go provided in plenty of time along with some history on the islands. Would highly recommend and well worth the money!!.James6918Version: 1.5.1

✓ AwesomeDownloaded this for my trip to Hana and it was awesome. You get so much more out of this trip by having this. It tells you when sites are coming up and gives you some great facts about the road to Hana & Maui. Highly recommend it 😃.Gilo1986Version: 1.1

✓ I would have been lost without it. LiterallyAs well as the local guide and useful tips this guide provides, it’s the only way you’ll be able to guide yourself around the curves, bends and hundreds of stops on the Road to Hana unless you want to use an A to Z. Telling where you stop or more importantly where not to! Good history lesson too. For everyone doing the Road to Hana I wouldn’t just recommend it, I’d say it’s a must..Berry345Version: 2.0.11

✓ Great fun & very InformativeThe sound is timed perfectly so you don’t miss any stops. In between attractions the stories are quite interesting, jokes are a little cheesy but bearable. I am already looking at big island and Oahu guides to download:).Kasia & AdamVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Big Island and MauiUsed the App for Hawaii volcano national park and road to Hana and Haleakala crater. The app gaveStep-by-step instructions for all of our visits. No need to do a lot of research in advance of the places that you want to see as the App is very informative and gave great suggestions on what to say. Excellent turn by turn instructions and lots of good information. Would definitely use this app again..Briab & Tracy May 2022Version: 5.1.6

✓ Shaka brahLoved this app!!! Downloaded the loop track last minute on our way to the starting point..well worth it, we enjoyed learning about each place along the way and the insider tips- I only wished we broke the trip down into two days to fill everything in as you really just want to do it all!!.AlohalaneyVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Best app everThis app is amazing. We really wanted to do a driving tour around Maui and Googled for ages trying to find maps etc. I then came across this app which I download immediate to check it out and see how it worked. For £7 British we downloaded a tour and it guided us to all the best bits giving us interesting information about loads of stuff all along the way. It even gave us different routes to go if we had more time or wanted to see a specific thing. It was like having our own personal guide in the car. Would definitely do another. Download you won’t be disappointed.Tomi_jonesVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Only way to see the road to HanaThis was recommended by someone when we booked an accommodation for our road trip to Hana. It is the only way to do the road to Hana. There are so many random stops and is impossible to know where to stop and which ones are worth it. This guide does a great job explaining everything! It is also entertaining. My kids even liked it and the app/guide became a part of experience. Highly recommended.JP DhillonVersion: 5.1.4

✓ Absolute mustWe wouldn't have had the same experience without it. Guidance along the way with timing, safety, stops and stories. 5*.Michelle....Version: 1.1

✓ AmazingWe loved it so much! We could not have done the Road to Hana without it..SupermomcrafterVersion: 6.0.0

✓ Totally worth it, but is frustrating.We got this app and the Road to Hana IAP for our drive to Hana based on a recommendation from another visitor in Maui. It made our drive so much better! Not only did it tell us all the great activities to stop and do along the way, but it gave some etiquette for the drive (how to do the one lane bridges), told us where to park, where to find restrooms, where to get good snacks, and some history lessons, all at the time it was relevant to us in our drive. 5 stars for content! The rating comes down because the app was so frustrating. It constantly asks you to log in with Facebook or Google requiring 2 extra steps to get around it each time you come back to the app. If you leave the app for a while to see one of the sights it doesn't always come right back to the tour so you have to get around the sign in requests, then open the tour (where it often froze or crashed), then once the tour opened again it would pick up where it left off. So it's a great app and totally enhances your drive to Hana, just frustrating at times..LinzbearsVersion: 1.1

✓ Best $10 spent on MauiWe absolutely loved this app. It made the road to Hana so much more achievable and we just couldn't of been happier. The prompts to stop- and to not stop if we wanted to see bigger and better were exactly what we're after. Mahalo!.PShea1988Version: 1.1

✓ Great way to see the islandsMy wife and I recently made our very first trip to Hawaii (Maui and Kauai). Before leaving, we discovered the Shaka Guide to Kauai and Shaka Guide to Maui apps. We are really glad that we did. During our vacation, we bought and used 3 different tours (Road to Hana, North Shore Kauai Tour, Waimea & Na Pali Tour) and found them to be super helpful and entertaining. We saw so many things and learned so much that we would have missed if we had made the trip on our own without these apps. It was like having a local tour guide right in our car with us (but at a fraction of the price). We highly recommend! Each tour was well worth the price. In addition, the support provided by Andrew was exceptional! The day before we did the Road to Hana, I was having trouble downloading the tour to my iPhone. I called Shaka Guides to ask for support on a Monday evening. Andrew immediately called me back. He was able to identify the reasons that I was having a problem (my wifi connection was slow and intermittent) and then guided me to resolve the issue, staying on the phone until the process was completed!.Big_Cat_RezzyVersion: 1.1

✓ Good guide, good companyWas travelling the Hana highway by myself and didn’t want to do a tour bus, so I could go at my pace. Good advice, good guide and a nice little history lesson. Quickly began to enjoy the company Bru! Mahalo.PeeDubEllYouVersion: 2.0.8

✓ ExcellentGreat guide, we had no idea what to stop to look at and had done zero planning but Shaka guide took care of everything. Highly recommended.LilyTeedsVersion: 1.5.2

✓ So good!This app is amazing, informative and oh so helpful. Well worth the money!.Sharls0236Version: 8.2.4

✓ What a great day -Thanks Shakra!This app made our day from great to fantastic- it was informative, fun and had super music. We had a laugh which also added to an unreal first time experience in Maui. Thanks for a great job in the tips & advice you gave - we have already purchased another app for our next adventure!.Loz - AustraliaVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Joyful JourneyWow we loved this app made the drive to Hana so much fun. We loved the tips and historical facts the music was quirky and fun. We loved that we didn’t miss anything and were given informative information from which we were able to decide where we stopped. I would definitely us these apps again and will be recommending it to all my friends. Mahalo keep up your great work..Happy OzziesVersion: 1.4.4

✓ FantasticThis app is brilliant! We used it for reverse trip to Hana, Haleakalā sunset, and the west coast drive. It’s accurate, informative and easy to use. We appreciate the effort that has gone in to making this, thank you!.K.tez216Version: 1.6.5

✓ Great App!We were recommended to this app by a friend, and we did the Road to Hana, Maui. It was scary! The music did get annoying on the way back so we would pause it, and then the tour guide would start back up again automatically. You should preview the spots on the tour 2 days before you plan to go, and make your reservations. Also, do your research—certain days of the week may be less crowded. If we knew that we would preview the spots on the listing ahead of time the night before, perhaps we would have booked the black sand park reservation ahead of time. Unfortunately, we passed the black sand park and did not have a reservation, but felt frightened enough of the road that we did not go back. We went all the way past Hana and did not reach the seven springs. We appreciated the reminder to turn around, providing us a time estimate for the way back. We were able to visit a public waterfall that people were swimming in. It was very far to get there. Heading back west toward the OGG airport on the road to Hana, was tricky since the stop sign for the one way roads favored the East bound traffic as they could come closer to the stop. It is dangerous to go in reverse. Overall, we survived thankfully and mostly in part a great thanks to the tips on tracking time and ensuring we have enough drive time for the journey back..CH222222222Version: 8.0.1

✓ Great value, excellent tours! A+Hands down the best value of anything we did or purchased while in Hawaii. The tours were easy to access, very funny and informative. The only thing we could think to critique was the Seven Sacred Pools at the end of the Road to Hana which were closed down and apparently have been for some time now, so might need to update that part of the Hana tour. Absolutely love this app & would definitely recommend!.H631110698Version: 1.4.4

✓ Great app and tour!I bought the classic Road to Hana tour for a day drive and it was great! The tour content was interesting and informative and seems to point all of the interesting things to see and do on the drive to Hana and beyond! Loved the insights and stories of Hawaii and it’s history too. The app itself works well, with the GPS triggered audio working consistently and timed perfectly. One downside is the app kept prompting me that there was an update when the App Store didn’t have one - but this didn’t affect the performance of the app itself..Liam_daviesVersion: 1.4

✓ Great personal tourVery easy to listen to with sites and history along the way. Made our trip very easy, as it told you ahead of time where to pull in, where toilets were and food stalls..PetersimoneVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Great appWe just did the classic road to Hana tour and it was great, very easy to use and without any glitch, just remember to download the tour before hitting the road. We started the tour from hotel, the app send the start location to google map so when we got there the tour automatically start. You don’t need any other navigation app this app shows the direction but you need connect it to the car via apple car play or Bluetooth to have a better audio in the car. There is a pause toggle switch so you can pause the tour for each stop. We started around 7:30 am and reached Hana around 1:00 pm. The information and guidance is grade and on time we didn’t miss any stop. The road after Hana is a bit rough and narrow so I won’t recommend drive beyond Hana for everyone, my wife wasn’t comfortable on the way back, up to Hana are packed with great stops and can cover a whole day, even if you start early. High light of trip was wai’anapanapa state park which we get there 3-4 hours after the start point, I highly recommend this app.Mn321.1Version: 4.0.4

✓ Maui toursI have used both the Hana Highway tour and Haleakala when traveling with my family. They were both fantastic we loved the history and the music throughout and saw so much we would never have known about if we were just using a map. Thanks.Fi from SydneyVersion: 1.4.4

✓ CAUTION: Make sure you use this app in Maui!!! 😎First time for us in Maui and the tours on this app are the best! Informative, fun, mauilicious & very accurate! 🙏 thanks to the creators 😀.Jeff loves MauiVersion: 1.1

✓ Absolutely worth itTruly can’t say enough about how wonderful this app is. We had initially downloaded it for the Road to Hana tour, but also ended up listening to the Sunrise Haleakala tour and the West Maui tour. We really enjoyed the recommendations for spots to see as well as the great stories, history, and music in the app. The tour guide really did feel like another buddy in the car! We even ended up changing our plans and spending additional time in upcountry Maui after the app recommended visiting Makawao after the sunrise at Haleakala. While there a local artist gave us a hand drawn map of Kula, which we used as a guide for the rest of the day. Truly a unique experience that we would not have had without this app. Would recommend getting the tour bundle because it is cheaper and you will want to use it! My only suggestion for improvement is that sometimes the driving directions come a little too close to the turns, which can be a little stressful. We had google maps up in the car as well so we could try to guess the directions before they popped up. Will be recommending this app to everyone in the future!.MLBUserVersion: 5.1.8

✓ Amazing must have .I should admit I am blow away by this tour. I am using I phone for 9 yrs and never ever bought any thing from App Store . We went to Hawaii and tried to do road to Hanna by our self and only made it half way on first day . That’s to seeing not much . Then we went to tickets for less and Ron there suggested to download this app . I did and figured out it was paid. Took the heli tour in am and then at heliport bought this tour and downloaded on lte . Took 5 minutes or so and then started to Hanna . There is so much to do that you can do all in one day so for first timer do it in 2 days !! We skipped all the first days spot and any hikes and made all the way to 80 feet fall . Did not go to the 7 sacred pool as it was already 4:30 pm . The app for fun . Tell you interesting facts and also I think 10 $ we’ll spent . I would advise to buy the hole Maui package for any trip you take as it will help you to see and this helped us the second day . We should have app for every tourist spots like this . I am thinking about making my own and make a company out of it lol ..Rahul55555Version: 1.6.4

✓ Great optionGreat option to have if you like driving yourself around at your own pace. Very smart app, user friendly, informative, and works well when you’re not the kind of traveller that prefers your busses for everything. Well worth it!.Diego montoyaVersion: 2.0.3

✓ Road to Hana!Fantastic app, very informative and entertaining. Highly recommend downloading this app if you travel the Road to Hana! Aloha!.NamikiwiVersion: 2.0.11

✓ Great purchase!It was worth getting this app and paying for it! The whole journey on Hana road with this app was amazing! Definitely recommend it 🤙🏼.Yoonji92Version: 8.2.7

✓ Fun on Classic Road to Hana TripThank you for making our drive on the road to Hana so much fun. The guided tour was awesome to listen to and made the drive fun and interactive. We loved the music, the stories, the advice on where to stop. I don’t think we would have had so much fun without the narrative along the drive. I highly recommend this app and trip to everyone. Worth every penny. Aloha. Thank you!.North Vancouver Helen LVersion: 6.0.0

✓ Did not expect that much but the Hana tour was excellent.We did not expect much from the Shaka app but we REALLY enjoyed the Hana tour, the app worked very well and the tour guide was really fun and informative, it left us full of smiles and memories. It definitely made our drive to Hana much better than it would have been without it. I would certainly use Shaka app again next time I visit Hawaii..PaolosaursVersion: 5.1.4

✓ Hans classic tourVery informative and clever use of GPS. Kept us up to date each step of the way. Highly recommended and excellent value for money over paying for a trip!.CaxandangusVersion: 1.6.5

✓ This app made our trip GREAT!!I've never paid for an app and was reluctant about driving the Road to Hana on our first trip to Maui. But after downloading the Classic version, yesterday's trip to Hana was the best part of the trip so far. We saw many things other people probably never knew about...the quick exploration of the lava cave was my son's favorite. And we drove right by other spots that probably weren't worth stopping at but we might have otherwise pulled in just because was saw a bunch of cars. Only regret was we didn't leave early enough to make it to the pools and I didn't have my phone charger so I was stressed I'd run out of battery life and miss part of the app tour. Luckily we made it to Hana and back with about 9% battery left (6+ hours). It was great getting updates about how much travel time to expect along the way. Seriously, it was like having a local in our car telling us exactly what to expect every twist and turn along the way. And even told us Hawaiian history stories on the way back home, making the drive back very enjoyable. Worth every penny and would rate 10 stars if I could. Great job!.Mr. Not sureVersion: 1.1

✓ The only way to travel the Road to HanaAmazingly accurate and informative app. Well worth the small charge. It was like having a well informed friend in the car with you on the journey. We learnt more about the island and Hawaii history than we had on other paid excursions. The tour is easy to follow, gives you lots of information and flexibility. Recommend this app.Bev and PeteVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Super pratique!Tellement pratique, seulement besoin de suivre les consignes du guide dans le confort de notre voiture. Un must!.Is RoVersion: 5.1.8

✓ Adventurous? You must get before you goThis was a personal tour guide. Worked without data flawlessly. We got so used to him talking to us we missed it when there where pauses. The app navigate you and picks up where you're located and will give appropriate messages. I want suggestion is that we pushed hard all the way to the end as fast as we could. We skipped many things on the way, but plan to do them on the way back. Our goal is to get all the way to the end they beat the crowds. While we encountered no traffic whatsoever because we start at 5:30 in the morning. The app does not repeat all the placesthat you passed. But, it will remind you about some of the places it's suggested you skip on the way to Hana to begin with to save time. Honestly this was the best 599 I've ever spent on an app. And when we come back in five months for a wedding we will use the same app and do this trip again and look at places that we did not experience. Furthermore, we are going to do the volcano, and get the guided tour for that..FytnfiremanVersion: 1.1

✓ A must-have app/ guide for all of MauiOur family literally conquered the whole island and learned so much about culture and history because of this app. It’s been the cheapest but most valuable purchase of our trip so far! Definitely a must-have app that showcases so many beautiful parts of Maui..EngJapteacherVersion: 6.0.0

✓ Honeymoon success thanks to this appAt first, we were a little bit skeptical about doing this tour ourselves without a guide. We didn't want to miss out on anything. However, we decided to just be adventurous and give this app a shot. Let me tell you, best decision ever... we were able to enjoy every single stop, go on our own pace and not have to worry about paying for a guided tour which would've made us have to stick to their schedule and itinerary. With this app, we were able to find two of our favorite spots. 1) the lava cave which is so much fun. We recommend you to go all the way in. You'll find a gorgeous little river pond. 2) the hidden Venus pool. This is a bit tricky and we would've never been able to even know it existed if it wasn't for this app. Listen carefully to the app instructions to be able to find the secret entrance. Once you find it... you'll find yourself walking into a clear blue swimming pond paradise. If you're a savage swimmer lol then go ahead and jump right in from the big rocks. If not, carefully go up the rocks and you'll find a tricky pathway to get down to the low waters. Anyway, this just shows how much we really loved this app and were so happy we didn't pay for a guided tour..Crashes with new iPhone updateVersion: 2.0.11

✓ Incredible tour guideWe were recommended this app from a friend and I can’t thank them enough! We used the Shaka Guide app for the Classic Road to Hana, the West Coast Maui tour and the Haleakala Sunrise. Each tour has unique history of Maui that we’re presented throughout the travel, where I learned so much I wouldn’t have without the app. The timing for each trip was pretty accurate as well. I also appreciated the tips about the tougher turns and alternate routes to take. Shaka Guide helped make our trip to Maui that much more memorable and I would recommend it to anyone traveling to Maui. Thank you!.Captain ChevVersion: 8.1.9

✓ Time of My LifeWe wouldn’t have enjoyed Maui as much as we did without this app! It was well worth the investment. Because of Covid this app was an excellent source for reporting what places had restrictions and required reservations. We saw things many of our friends didn’t know about, in fact as first timers to Maui we saw so much more than our friends had who went before us. One of our favorite parts was our personal tour guide speaking to is on Bluetooth in our rental car. He gave us amazing history lessons and stories along the way and music as well, for the Journey. We took The Road to Hana tour and The Loop road tour. We found amazing snorkeling spots, lava tubes, blow holes, amazing views, hidden arboretum, and more. We had one challenge and that was at times we missed our turns because the speaker would tell us to turn a little to late, we figured out how followed the gps that’s included instead of the voice. It’s a minor flaw and didn’t ruin our trip. I highly recommend this app!.Marcel loves freedomVersion: 5.0.4

✓ Great travel buddyFound this app to be most useful. Newbies to Maui so needed help in trip planning. Did the back side of Haleakala and survived 👍🏻. Buy it and try for yourself.Susan NZVersion: 1.1

✓ A great App!!This is a must for anyone to travel the road to Hana or any tour offered by Shaka! The tour was very informative and entertaining. It was also great to have offline directions available the entire way and expert advice from a local guide who provided access to all the best spots! Mahalo for the great day! Keep up the good work!!.IvanagaudiVersion: 1.4.4

✓ So impressed!We used this guide for the reverse road to Maui - it was so useful to have this app playing throughout the tour - it was like having a local tour guide in the car! Who also played music and told us stories along the way. You can pause the tour at anytime if you take a detour and it will just rejoin when you get to the next GPS point. There is super helpful advice about pit stops for bathroom breaks, where to gas up and food recommendations - a perfect companion for this road trip!.LilJ86Version: 5.1.4

✓ Loved itWe really enjoyed the tour of road to Hana, will definitely download more tours on this app.LyndigmgVersion: 5.1.2

✓ Will ease your worriesUsed this app for the R2H loop tour that we did over 2 days. It had useful information about stops along the way and was extremely useful for driving and parking information. I ended up purchasing the package of tours they had and was very happy about it when on the morning of the drive we went to connect the app and it turned out the loop tour had not finished downloading despite it saying it had. The classic tour that I had downloaded on a whim had what we needed so we were able to use that instead. I’d say try to test the app out ahead of time to avoid any mishaps since you don’t want to spend precious time figuring out an app and finding wifi on your trip. Also, you can follow the app completely and have a great time but there are stops we found to be absolute musts that the app brushes over, research from other places lead to those bonus situations. Overall a very smart, useful and well put together app that takes the stress out of driving. I liked the sound track in some spots that added a little chill to the day too..Sweetesthye0507Version: 2.0.6

✓ Road to Hana! Best app EVER!We downloaded this app this morning. We bought the classic one and we were not disappointed. From the moment we got to the start of the route we were guided every step of the way. Loads of information and stop offs. Even which place to stop off and buy a picnic for along the way. It’s a long day, so beware. Set off before 10am, we set off at 11am and only got back to the start just before dark. The drive is very slow and lots of bends. My husband was very tired by the time we got back to our condo. Took 12 hours and we didn’t do everything on the app. The waterfalls are amazing but make sure you take appropriate foot ware for the rocky descents and also quite muddy. All in all a very memorable day, breathtaking views around every corner. This app is amazing. We’re going to download another one definitely 👍🏻.MrsleftyVersion: 1.4.4

✓ This tour was essential.We drove the full loop to Hana and back yesterday. We had a guide book, but this app was essential. There are so many options and stops which do not have any signs or markers. The app lets you know in advance and tells you where to stop. For example, there is a lava tube cave, which is unmarked and on the road to Hana. No cars were stopped there and it was just a small hole in the ground, until you go inside. The detour to Nahiku was worth the time. In addition to an incredible view of the shore and crashing waves, we walked down the rapids to a beautiful crystal clear pool. Don’t let the closed, dilapidated bridge scare you off from proceeding. My wife loved the wild pig which darted across this isolated road in front of our Jeep. The “rental car-violating” portion of the drive was not too bad (My wife tolerated it...which says a lot.). In addition to sharing a single lane with oncoming cars, at one point our Jeep was surrounded by cattle. It was like running with the bulls in Pamplona. The music and stories kept us amused during the white-knuckle driving times of this 12-hour day. We had a great time, but could not have done it without the guidance of this app..JayBTRVersion: 1.4

✓ Fantastic tour guideEasy to navigate, stop and start at your leisure. Pick and choose what you want to stop and see. Don’t see it all; there is not enough time in your day. Learn interesting facts and historical stories along the way. Great Hawaiian music too. Definitely recommend..GazTeeWikiVersion: 2.0.9

✓ Perfect tour guideWe used this to do the Road to Hana tour in Maui as we wanted to drive it ourselves. It was the perfect trip companion, teaching us about Hawaiian history and mythology along the way and advising us on where to stop off for the best hikes, waterfalls, beaches and vistas. I’m so glad someone recommended this to us! It’s such a low price for such an excellent tour guide and we much preferred it to going with a group as we could set our own pace and stop off where we wanted..EmilygracehsVersion: 1.5.1

✓ 100% RecommendedShaka Guides is a great way to see the island without any fuss of booking tours and other tourists. We did two tours a Classic Hana and Sunset Haleakala, and they were so much fun. There were so many interesting historical facts and stories included and great directions were given throughout the entire trip. We enjoyed it so much that we just downloaded the big island Shaka guide too. You won’t regret it!.YenchaminnVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Definitely recommendUsed the Shaka Guide for both the road to Hana and the Sunrise on Haleakala. Both were very, very helpful, informative and improved our self-guided tours immensely!! Thank you so much Shaka!! Will be looking for future tours!.Penguin66No1Version: 8.0.0

✓ Incredible!!I purchased the Road to Hana Loop tour. It is the best money spent in Maui hands down. My two young adult children (23 & 22) and I drove the Road to Hana using this tour and we were so impressed with the depth of information provided. The tour is very easy to follow at your own pace. But the best feature is the clear detail to find the “hidden” access points to waterfalls and hikes you would never find on your own. Literally stopping and climbing through a small hole in the bamboo on the side of the road, following the trail, crossing a river and ending at the most beautiful waterfall! Also, directions to find the red sand beach that we would never have found on our own. We loved the history about Hana, Maui and Hawaii provided as well. And also the honest input about the quality of some roads and the risk involved. We felt like the tour guide was part of the family after our 10 hour adventure. You will not regret this purchase. We are planning to purchase the Haleakala tour as well. Thanks Shaka Guide for adding so much to our Maui vacation!!!.SueEvanGarrisonVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Better than a guided tourTraveling alone to Maui Hawaii my sister and I were determined to do the road to Hana. We were told by the concierge and other tourists who have travelled the road to Hana that you just must spend the money on a guided tour so you didn't miss out on any of the history, stories, or any of the attractions. On a whim we decided to download the app and we drove the road to Hana. What an amazing trip and application. We saved a couple hundred dollars by not paying for the tour but didn't miss a thing. This app took us to so many places. I even found that we were stopping in locations that the tour buses were not. Not only did it give us the history and stories but it even had nice Hawaiian music to fill in the blank spaces. We thought once the mission was complete, the narrative would stop but it did not. It gave us more stories and more music all the way home. It even gave us tips on attractions that might be worth skipping or that might be better to see on the way home for time saving management. This is an awesome application I would definitely say it is worth more even than the five dollars..Sisters in MauiVersion: 1.1

✓ Road to Hana experienceWe absolutely loved learning about Hawaii’s history, culture and highlights of the road to Hana. We had our own private tour guide with us!.Alex666:)Version: 5.1.4

✓ A must-have for the Road to HanaAs two tourists from New York City who’d never been to Hawaii before, I’m pretty sure this drive would have been impossible without this app. We downloaded the “Classic” tour, and because of this app we were able to budget our time on the road and made sure we stopped at all of the essential detours (and skipped the ones he said may not be worth it), while still getting back to our hotel in Kihei before sundown. The app worked seamlessly with our car’s GPS. He tells you all the turns to make and the backroads to take, and he never missed once! Where the restrooms are, which food trucks to stop at. It can be so specific that he’ll tell you where to turn for the best banana bread, and he’s right! It WAS the best! The guy’s got major personality too. We’re still talking like him, “brah!” And make sure to leave the tour on for the ride home. He takes you through the entire history of Hawaii and King Kamehaha and you just learn so much and see so many beautiful things that it’s hard to put into words. Mahalo for an incredible experience!.CeokenVersion: 1.5.1

✓ Excellent TourThis is a great app with lots of good information for your vacation in Maui. We downloaded a tour for the Road to Hana. The app worked well and the tour was excellent. Even my teens enjoyed it. Highly recommend!.1770NikkiTVersion: 8.1.3

✓ Adventure awaitsYour Maui adventure awaits with this amazing app. Explore the island on your own timeline with local music while driving from site to site. Great stories and tidbits from such a soothing voice that feels like a local friend taking you through the island. I honestly thought I was only going to use the Road to Hana app. Ended up buying the package and so glad I did. We used the app for the West Loop as well as the Haleakala Sunrise. Highly recommend!.NoelNMVersion: 8.1.3

✓ A total game changerVisiting Maui with this app takes tourism to another level. We’ve been to places that I could not have possibly imagined, many off beaten paths. I sure wish there were more apps like this for places all over the world..Equinox_76Version: 8.1.8

✓ Huge help!Not sure we could have done the road to Hana without this app! It really helped us narrow down the places we wanted to stop, since you really can’t stop at all of them. The timing of everything worked out great with the app connected to our cars usb and the navigation following us exactly. The history was a nice touch and actually didn’t put us to sleep. Just a few things could be tweaked to help the experience... if they added difficulty in hiking terrain. My 72 year old mother had a hard time on some of the short hikes and we really had no idea ahead of time what we were getting into. I realize things change with the weather but a general idea would be very helpful. Also, we kinda got lost in The town of Hana looking for food, and then finally found more food as we were exiting the town. Lastly, please fill the extra dead time in between points with more Hawaiian music. Even with these small flaws, I still highly recommend this app and would use again!.Jagallo119Version: 1.4.1

✓ No planning necessary!We recently used the Shaka app to take multiple tours on Maui, Oahu and the Big Island and they totally made our trip! Very easy to use and incredibly informative, they made planning our day trips a breeze. In fact, no planning was necessary because they tell you exactly where to stop and what to do. It came in especially handy on the Road to Hana where there is way more to potentially do and see than you can get done in a day. Also loved the Haleakalā sunrise, North Shore Oahu, Volcanos National Park and Kohala Coast tours. There was no fear of missing out knowing that the Shaka Guide would take us to the best attractions and give an honest assessment of which ones could be skipped. We felt like we got way more out of our travels than if we were to just drive around looking at stuff. We and our kids learned a ton about Hawaiian history and culture and there was no need to mess with maps or cumbersome 200 page guidebooks. Works best if you have a rental car than can stream through the stereo via Bluetooth. Our rental Jeeps on two of the islands didn’t have this and it would not play properly through a USB connection or at all through a portable Bluetooth speaker for some reason. Maybe a technical issue to resolve but certainly not major - we just listened through the phone speaker and kept it charged. Very highly recommend..Billybob$&:@/);Version: 1.6.5

✓ Cant do without!Excellent app, we couldnt do road to hana without this app, easy to follow and a pleasure to listen to! We ended up doing the whole 12 hours and it was so worth it! Thank you!.MagdacarrickVersion: 5.1.4

✓ BrilliantThis app is amazing. It is a definite must if you are doing the Road to Hana tour. Filled with key spots to visit, explanations of what things are, this will make your trip that much more enjoyable. As well the history you receive from this team is unbelievable. It made this long trip go by so fast. Well done Shaka App, well done..Chapman_4Version: 5.1.6

✓ Wonderful guideThe road to Hana was awesome and the guide was very helpful and told us where to stop or not. However, he said that certain stops were meant for certain people. He cracked jokes and gave us a nice experience and we were never bored. Many people say that they were told not to stop at certain places or did not like the drive or the stops. That is criticism to a beautiful drive and not the guide. The guide recommended where you should stop but clearly said stop if you are interested in the topics he mentioned. He provided history and stories as well and some nice music. Some of the stops are closed because they can’t keep updating it every week when the open or close a building or marketplace which was another bit of criticism. Also, the guide is linked with the gps so as long as you don’t do funky stuff with your device or your device is decent, it should work(more criticism 🙄)as he has to talk about a stop when we are close to it..Penguin man 282717Version: 5.1.0

✓ Great experience with Shaka Maui!Took the Classic Road to Hana trip and especially loved all the insider tips on parking and places to skip! The Venus Pool was a highlight!!.Luckytucky123Version: 5.1.6

✓ Classic Tour to HanaThis was the greatest experience ever!!!! My daughter and I took the day to explore the famous road to Hana. A friend told me about this app and recommended it to help guide us through the sights on our trip. The trip was amazing, breathtaking views and the most amazing beaches and agriculture we have ever seen. BUT, it would not have been the same experience without this tour playing along as we made the journey. The guise was spot on every single turn, the music made it seem like we were in the middle of some historical Hawaiian musical and the narrator was so engaging. There were times we both looked at each other and said, “what is happening and how do they know every single turn”!?!? Toward the end even, as you’re driving back, the story they tell and the music that accompanies you is like the ending to some magical tale of Hawaiian battles and royalties. We were laughing because it was such a perfect fit and we almost felt sad that it was over. We definitely lived in the moment as they instructed. We will not be leaving home in another route without Shaka tours. Was such a great experience that we will talk about forever. Aloha !!!!.Cindy & MayaVersion: 5.1.4

✓ Must have for Hawaiian travel!We have used these Shaka Guides for Kauai, Oahu, and now Maui and tell everybody we know traveling to Hawaii about them. It’s like having a local, personal tour guide with you to tell you where to park, tell jokes and play music along the way as well as point out all the must sees for your trip. We love the map preview on the tours so we can see which tours take us where, and appreciate all the tips for road safety (like on Maui’s west coast road of death!), and places known for having great food or snacks. We LOVE the history stories and upbeat approach to travel, makes our trips so fun! We paid a FRACTION for the Maui bundle compared to just one ticket our relatives paid for a Road to Hana tour when we visited the island for a family event. We had SO much more fun not being stuck on a bus, elbow to elbow and not having control over which stops we made and how long we spent at each place. Wish we had a “Shaka” guide for every major city we travel to..Sunshiny4Version: 5.0.4

✓ 4 stars almost perfect-4.8 if I could !This app was amazing- seriously great at guiding us on some treacherous roads with detailed descriptions and very helpful info on what’s to come down the road. The only thing I would want more detail on is the actual stops/hikes. For example, we stopped at the blowhole on the west Maui tour but couldn’t find the heart shaped rock. A bit of guidance to its location could have helped. We also did the reverse road to Hana and this helped us navigate with great detail. I don’t know what we would have done without it! Gave more detail on most hikes but we still missed a few things like the ocean cave. Really saw a lot though!! The hike to the farthest waterfalls after the 7 pools trail is totally worth it albeit long! This is a must download app if coming to Maui and down for an adventure. We would absolutely use again for another trip and recommend to friends. Also, get the upgrade to a Jeep! Roads are crazy in some spots! It was very rainy when we did Hana and I don’t think we would have made it through some muddy and flooded spots without it..Helboc36Version: 2.0.11

✓ UnrealFantastic and amazing guide. Wouldn’t have been the same without it. Loved it..S_fortyVersion: 2.0.11

✓ Just awesome...the tour guide made us feel like Ohana!This app was so helpful. We did this tour on our first day in Maui and actually missed our “tour guide’s voice” the rest of our trip. (We even gave him our own name “Oggie” because I didn’t read the email entirely to the bottom to find out his real name lol). He was funny, accurate and so informative. My new fiancé =) was even debating on when to propose during this trip and because of something that was mentioned he found exactly when and where to propose. We didn’t get to make it to all the stops but we followed the tour’s advice and made it to all of the most spectacular sites. Time flew by rather quickly and because of his advice we were able to make the most of our time. For the rest of my trip, I even recommended this app to other tourists and visitors who were planning to do the Road to Hana. It definitely beat being on a tour bus. This gave us guidance but also the freedom to come and go as we pleased. On the drive back to our hotel, the app also gave us such an entertaining and valuable history about Maui and Hawaii. We are so grateful we used this app, we really got the whole package with this app. Not only did it guide us on the Road to Hana but it guided the road to my boyfriend’s proposal! =) Thank you Shaka Maui! You made all the difference in our trip! Until next time...Mahalo! - C&E.C&E 06-10-2018Version: 1.4.4

✓ Top tour, very entertainingMust download. Never missed a beat and made the road to Hana one to remember #herecomesthesun.Killer_1984Version: 1.1

✓ Awesome AppShaka is amazing! We were able to hit so many more spots than we had originally planned. It was great & totally worth the $10. If you are going on the road to Hana, I absolutely recommend this app. We purchased the “Classic” tour. We did it in 6-7 hours. Did I already mention It was amazing?!?! If you start in Kahului, you should leave at 9am. If you are starting in Paia, you should leave about 10am. The app wants to start you in Kahului, so just hit the second option to “join tour” where ever you are because it will wanna backtrack you to Kahului. We started in Paia. The app is amazing! It even tells you where you can get food and gas. It also has an offline map because there isn’t much cell signal on the road to Hana. We enjoyed it very much. We left Paia close to noon because we stayed a couple days in Hana. For those who are driving back, you’ll wanna start your trip at about 9am. You don’t have to stop at all the spots but the voice on the app (we named him Billy) will let you know of the places you might wanna skip if you got a late start. Buy this app! My boyfriend and I had a lovely trip to Hana. The bamboo forest is a must see. The entrance it hella sketch but it’s all worth it..K.MiraVersion: 1.6.5

✓ So Helpful - Great Self Guided TourSo Helpful - Great Self Guided Tour and very user friendly. Driving on the other side of the road is stressful enough, but this self guided tour made the drive so much easier. We were recommended this by some people we ran into at the Hotel and so glad they did, not sure how we would of done it without it!.Soph G 🇦🇺Version: 2.0.11

✓ Road to Hana…closedUpdate: Shaka Maui was very responsive & even though they WEREN’T RESPONSIBLE for the issues we encountered, they did everything possible to make sure it was made right in our eyes. Thank you Shaka Maui for taking care of your customers! ********************* We downloaded this app to take our kids on the Road to Hana. They wanted to see waterfalls & hike. We paid the $15 for the app & started our trip. We opted for the Reverse Trip option. The roads were crazy windy but it was fun…until we’re were stopped by construction trucks. They said the road was closed b/c they were replacing a bridge . We had already driven over 2 hours & we were turned away 8 miles from Hana. The construction worker said, “they put the road closure in the newspaper.” Who reads the newspaper in 2021?! We were very disappointed so we just turned off the app & turned around & drove 2+ hrs backs the way we came. Never saw Hana. Wasted a whole day..Jchoward606Version: 5.1.0

✓ LOVED IT!Amazing.Corbone33Version: 6.0.0

✓ This App is On PointI have done the drive to Hana 4 times. The first three were don’t using the popular Maui Revealed Book which was the “old gold standard” in Maui for this trip. This app blew me away. It sinks up to your GPS and is spot on with telling you where to go, what to do and when to do it. The suggestions of the things to skip are spot on as well, as I have stopped at most of them in the past and felt like I wasted my time. It was great getting the instructions as to where we could swim and where we couldn’t. Leave at 6:30 or 7:00 am and you will get all the way to the end without a problem. My only complaint with this app is that the Seven Sacred Pools at the end are no longer open for swimming as of 1/3/17. It would be great if they could update the voice recording on the app to reflect that as we would have opted to stay longer at the Black Sand Beach. In fairness to the app, they did send an email which I read after the fact that did inform us of this. It would just be great to have heard it in the app. Bottom line, would never do the drive or advise anyone to do it without this fantastic app..Globetrotter030707Version: 1.4.4

✓ Family of 5 all loved our tourWe are a family with 3 teens. Hawaii is expensive and we had to carefully pick where we spent our money for the best value. We bought the full package of Maui guided tours. By far our best vacation investment. The music was excellent and really added to the ambience or “vibe” of our drives. The tour helped us survive a very long road to Hana and kept us laughing and learning about the rich history and culture of the Island. If you are thinking… “what?…5 people, 3 teenage girls, all in a car winding and twisting through dangerous jungle conditions for 13 hours?” The answer would be-yes- and so glad we did it. it is absolutely no joke though. Be on the top of your driving game and don’t do it without your Shaka guide. We started at 6AM and finished just in time to see the sunset over Mama’s Fish House. We did have some upset stomachs and occasional whining along the way, but we made great memories. After 10 beautiful days in Hawaii, our 18 year old sited the Shaka guide tours as one of her biggest highlights. You could not get a higher compliment! Thanks for being such a special part of our very special vacation! Do NOT hesitate to buy any of these..Alib5!Version: 5.1.6

✓ Awesome appIf you have kids, this app makes long scenic drives tolerable, and maybe even enjoyable. The stories keep them from asking how much longer and the Hawaiian music is a great soundtrack for the scenery..CrevairVersion: 5.1.4

✓ Must have app!This app was awesome! We did the road to Hana for the first time last month. We rented a car and drove the whole way past Hana. There’s no way we would have known about some of the places without this app. Worth every penny. Loved the historical stories as well..CDL888Version: 1.4.4

✓ Awesome App!I normally don't leave reviews. However, I felt this was worth leaving a review. At first I was concerned about how good the app would work, and not having any cell service for most of the trip, I wondered how the app would work. We followed the directions and turned off cellular and left GPS on. It was fantastic. It was like having our own personal tour guide. Yes, it still worked without cell service and the music was a nice touch as there is no radio signal for pretty much the whole trip. We plugged the cell phone into the car and listened through the car stereo. The narrative is very informative and gives great information through out the entire trip. Some key elements for me was at the beginning of the app he talks about how to handle the one lane bridges and suggests that if you are starting your trip and it's after 10 you should probably consider not doing the trip or not stopping as much.. He also tells you where to park to see key view points and suggests stops that you can skip or stops that he highly recommends. Even where bathrooms are and places to eat along the way..Fattire40Version: 1.1

✓ Great advice, entertaining and easy to useFelt like we had a guide in the car. What a great way to spend the day..ReggyHVersion: 5.1.7

✓ Fantastic app - worked perfectly!I can’t say enough good things about this app! We have driven the Road to Hana before, but I was amazed at how much more information this guide gave than previous audio guides we’d used, as well as how many things we’d missed out on during prior trips. The GPS worked perfectly, and we were able to visit many of the must do attractions, as well some of those that are lesser known. I would recommend reading the “before you go” article prior to your drive, as it was very useful in helping us prepare. We learned much about the Road to Hana attractions, interspersed with Hawaiian music and entertaining stories. It is ESSENTIAL that you download the app first, because there will not be cell service on most of the Road to Hana. Also, be sure you can charge your phone throughout the day. We bought the entire Maui package, which included Haleakala among other tours, but we unfortunately ran out of time before we could use them. I guess that just means we’ll have to go back soon!.Pilot311Version: 8.2.7

✓ Totally worth the money!This tour was inexpensive and totally worth every penny, for the info on available restrooms alone!! My fiancé and I drove all the way to Ohe’o Gulch and back and we didn’t leave Paia until about 9:45. We had done the road to Hana before but never made it to Ohe’o Gulch so that was our goal. We didn’t make a lot of stops on our way there, since we had done many before, but even still made the time to stop at the black sand beach near Hana and some of the waterfalls. It’s definitely possible to do the whole trip starting that “late” we were sure to leave Ohe’o by 4 and were set up having dinner at Momma’s Fish House by 630! This guide is awesome! It turns itself on and off based on your location, is full of helpful info (bathrooms for sure) and made the trip far more enjoyable. We had some technical difficulty the first time we turned the car off and drove for a few minutes without the guide but quickly pulled over to get it reset. We missed it! The app even has trouble shooting built right in. For me, shutting off my iPhone and restarting it did the trick. The guide had just the right tone and amount of info, even the interesting historical stories for the way back. I would definitely purchase another guide from Shaka Guides again!.Jewelwhite71Version: 4.0.1

✓ Awesome app!!!This app was so awesome, so spot on and so helpful. Gave me and my family a wonderful tour and SO many places to visit. If you don’t want to do a tour and want more freedom PLEASE PLEASE get this app it is worth every penny! It will help you and tell you all the stops and if you want to skip any you can! This was so great!.S_melissa.pVersion: 8.0.1

✓ The perfect guide!We loved having the Shaka Guide with us during our Road to Hana adventure. We learned a lot about the culture and history of Hawaii and had so much fun along the way! These guys really know what they’re doing and they have everything you’d need to know to have the best experience in your Road to Hana. The stories and music on the way back kept us entertained since it can get pretty boring coming back at night since you can’t see any of the views and you’re basically just driving through tons of curves in the dark. The only thing we would say is that we think the tour is mainly for the summer since we started early, but weren’t able to get to the Pipiwai Trail and 7 sacred pools. Haleakala National Park entrance closes at 5pm and we weren’t aware of this until we got there. We have enough time in Maui, so we will go back again to hit the areas we skipped, but if you can only go for 1 day and want to see the Pipiwai Trail (Banyan Tree, Bamboo Forest) and 7 Sacred Pools, we’d recommend you skip more than a few of the stops along the way (in the winter time only)..FilorateVersion: 3.0.6

✓ MAHALOThis is the most amazing app! We have arrived from the UK and desperately want to do the Hana road trip only to find in our limited time here all the tour companies were fully booked. Therefore we decided to hire a car and with the aid of this app we just had the best day ever and would not have had such a wonderful day without this app! MAHALO.Gu giVersion: 2.0.3

✓ RTHThis is a must app for road to Hana. Does all the planning for you. Loads of information along the way. Pick and chose when to stop. Makes recommendations for timing. Some history information for your return trip. Highly recommended it.Bazinga1112Version: 2.0.11

✓ Best travel app!This app is a must-have companion on your trip through Maui. Whether you are travelling alone or with a group, it gives excellent advice from what to do to where to eat. I wouldn’t have seen half as much or had nearly as magical experience without it. Highly recommend..BeatrixtravelsVersion: 6.0.0

✓ Made the Road to Hana so easy!I’m in Maui with my mom and brother. The concierge at our condo said that of we did the Road to Hana on our own, we’d probably see 3 things maximum on our trip before we’d have to turn around to get back before dark. We were considering booking a tour van for that reason, and then we found this app. It saved us $600 and the experience was wonderful! It worked offline- using GPS- so even once we lost cell service it continued working because we downloaded it beforehand. We saw 9 different places along the way, including the black sand beach and many waterfalls. And those 9 didn’t include all the bathroom pitstops and the other places we could have seen if we didn’t get a late start. The guide let us know when we might want to skip the stop if we needed to conserve time and it gave us time to discuss it before we’d have to turn. Anyway, such an awesome app! I’m so glad I found it! We were nervous because of how the concierge talked about how difficult finding the stops would be and how “crazy” the road is, but the reviews for this app reassured us and we are so glad we didn’t let her salesmanship get to us!.Crayzdoglover11Version: 2.0.9

✓ This app was awesome!Such a great help for us as we navigated our way to Hana. So glad we made the trip and had this great app to guide us..NijKJVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Shaka Maui and Kauai appWe used these apps on our Maui/Kauai trip. We started with the Gypsy app and switched to the bundled Shaka Maui and Kauai apps. We liked the Shaka apps better. I felt Shaka had more detailed stops on the road to Hana. It also plays Hawaiian music and has Hawaiian legend stories mixed in. This was extremely helpful on the road to Hana and made the drive more interesting. Tip- book a room in Hana and continue your drive the next day. Do the pipiwai trail hike (4 miles total) and start this hike before 3:30pm and bring bug spray for the bamboo forest. My kids are mosquito magnets. This was an amazing moderate hike that ends with a huge waterfall. I looked at reviews for both apps before we left on vacation and found that both shaka and gypsy had very good reviews. My family of 4 preferred the Shaka app tours because they were more entertaining and detailed. I would use them again on a return trip. On our Kauai trip it had us stop at moloa’a bay which is the location Gillian’s Island was first filmed. It played the theme music as we drove in. How fun! Get the Shaka apps, you will love the tour help on where to stop. We like to explore and it gave us lots of options to do so. 🌸.Jen 4Version: 1.6.5

✓ Awesome “Bra!”We took our second tour of Hana Hwy using the Ap going the reverse direction this time. Can’t say enough good things about the tour…. Music, history, points of interest were all right on! We took our first Shaka tour 6-7 years ago and my family still imitate the narrators voice and his little sayings! I agree with another reviewer that it would have been nice to have a quick update at the very beginning of the tour saying what places were closed. I downloaded the ap the day of the trip so there was no time to read an email that supposedly talked about the changes (like 7 pools not open for swimming). The other thing that made us miss some spots was when he’d say something is coming up in 3 miles , for example, the next time it was announced was when we were right on top of the stop! Maybe we were driving too fast but it seems like an earlier “final call” might make things easier to find. Also, adding a visual map to the program would be hugely helpful! Even if it was a picture of what the next stop looked like would be great! Overall this ap is awesome! I recommend it all the time! Thanks for a great day!!.LacindaLutherVersion: 5.1.2

✓ Awesome and Insightful little App!We just used this app today to navigate the windy route through to Hana. We found it very easy to use and insightful, we would definitely recommend it to anyone. A much cheaper way to get a guided tour! Update 2019 - used the app again. Still awesome and loved every minute of it!!.VNorn82Version: 1.6.5

✓ Perkins familyThe tour was extremely fantastic with great information and extremely easy to follow the steps. It was well worth the money spent to buy the app and also to drive the road to Hana..Australian perkins familyVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Great guideFirst time driving the road to Hana and couldn’t imagine having done it without this app. The absolute only criticism I have is that they only let you know the seven pools “may be closed” once you are about 15 minutes away. It’s more my fault for not doing more research, but once we got there it turns out the seven pools have been closed for swimming since January 2017. Seems like the app could be updated to let you know that info well ahead of 15 minutes prior to arrival. But since it’s a state park I’m sure the app owners are incentivized to leave that fact out since it costs $25 to get into the park, and if you’re aware that the pools are closed in advance you probably wouldn’t go. I know we would have turned around after Hana if we knew the pools were closed, but when you drive that far and find out only 15 minutes before that they are closed, you’re likely to continue regardless and in turn drive revenue for the park. Again, I’m not ignorant and I understand how business works, but it’s a shame they won’t update the app or put a disclaimer somewhere that states the pools are closed..A_med5Version: 1.4.4

✓ Awesome appThanks for this app..PakawashVersion: 8.1.5

✓ Fantastic, fun, and educational — just do it!Could not have imagined a better experience driving the road to Hana. If you have read reviews talking about the danger of doing so yourself, ignore them. Because this was my first trip to Maui I don’t have anything to compare it with, but the number of cars on the road to Hana was not that many, and the drive was very doable. This may be because of lower tourism numbers due to Covid but we only saw 4 tourist vans all day taking groups on the road; taking a tour is definitely not necessary. This GPS guided, turn by turn guide was fantastic! I did download it to my phone as recommended (needed because you will not have cell service for a large part of the drive) and simply paused the tour each time we stopped at locations by sliding the tab on the bottom right. I learned a ton and loved the recommendations (ex: “this stop is nice but there are better waterfalls ahead so I would recommend skipping it”). It felt like we had our own personal experienced guide with us on the road. Definitely 5 star!! Would do again in a heartbeat..Plant Girl5Version: 3.0.7

✓ Well worth the moneyRecently did road to Hana with it and it was exceptional..BucchoiVersion: 5.1.6

✓ This app is the best tour guide app EVER!I absolutely loved this app. The tour guide was entertaining and informational. He told jokes and made me and my family laugh and have fun during the trip! He gave informational tips on every stop and the GPS was accurate. Every stop he recommended was wonderful and was worth while. The tour guide also recommended stuff that a normal tour guide app wouldn’t, for ex. ice cream shops and general stores. And those stops where DEFINITELY worth while as well. The tour guide also made sure that we we were all safe and cosy in our car, and helped us avoid wrong/unsafe roads. He also told us stories about our stops and the history that goes with it. Those history lessons were fun, entertaining, and just overall informational. I literally didn’t want to leave the app because I loved the tour so much. This tour guide app is so much like a real tour guide, that sometimes I thought there was a real guide in our car with us! I DEFINITELY recommend this app and you guys should go ahead and check this out..TorturseVersion: 4.0.4

✓ Make sure you get this if you’re going on the Road to HanaMy friends and I did the classic Hana loop and it was a great tour experience. The tour guide was informative, fun, and told some great stories about Hawaii and it’s history during the drive. t uses your phones GPS to trigger the right sound clip at different parts of the journey and it worked really well at guiding you where you want to go. By the end of it my friends and I were sad our time with the tour guide and the road was over. Would recommend this app to anyone I know who’s wants to travel Hawaii and also get a guided tour they can go at their own pace and comfort. Mahalo 🤙.DarkTorinVersion: 5.1.5

✓ Best app ever!This was the best guide to have on both the Road to Hana and also Haleakala! Love how it automatically starts playing based on your GPS location and the guide himself was good to listen to and had some neat facts. There was one spot on Halakeala that we were going to drive past, but based on the guides recommendation we stopped and it was the best spot on the summit!.MattigrechVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Perfect Addition to your AdventureUsed the Road to Hana Tour & it was brilliant. Really easy to use app, very much needed as there is next to no phone signal. This made our adventure even better with the stops we made. would of spent hours organising something similar. Must have for your Road to Hana Tour. Even made the way home interesting..Tom NicholasVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Made for an absolutely awesome day!We are in Maui for the first time, from Michigan. Had heard that we HAD TO do the road to Hana but wanted more flexibility than a regular tour bus could have given us. This app absolutely made our day! The information was all correct and up-to-date, the hints and suggestions were extremely helpful, the guide was super engaging, educational and, at times, even truly funny. We even dug the music selections — some of it was just background elevator-ish music but a lot of it (maybe ALL of it?) was Hawaiian and even got quite deeply cultural which enhanced the educational aspect of the tour. We did the there-and-back trip (not the loop) so we were NOT looking forward to having to do the same drive twice but the totally different information and stories on the way back truly did make the drive so meaningful and fun. This app was absolutely indispensable! If we ever do another road trip in Hawaii (and we hope we do!), we will look for a Shaka Guide! Wish we were on social media so we could share the love far and wide. ❤️ Mahalo!.QueenprincessofmojoVersion: 8.1.5

✓ A must have for Maui!We used this for Hana and Haleakala - an absolute must. Great voiceover and so knowledgable - would definitely recommend..LucyJMacVersion: 1.5.1

✓ Awesome tripOur first time using the Shaka app for the Road to Hana. So many amazing places that we would never have found on our own. We loved the lava tube, all the beautiful waterfalls and beaches. Banana bread was delicious. We enjoyed the history on the return journey. Great value for money, if you are thinking about purchasing this app, do it you won’t regret it and have an amazing day exploring the Road to Hana it’s beautiful..MVR2905Version: 5.1.5

✓ ExcellentWe drove the road to Hana and used Shaka Guide, this app was very informative and easy to use. We highly recommend this app. A quick note, make sure you reserve your entrance to the national parks 24 hrs prior to leaving on your tour they do not take same day reservations and you will be turned away from these areas..Mr & Mrs H 💗Version: 8.2.7

✓ Great way to explore Hawai’iThe App works great- tried two tours on Maui and it was a lot of fun..Sue_42Version: 2.0.9

✓ Great app!Really great app which helped us navigate the Road to Hana - I can’t imagine trying to do it without it. We’d definitely have missed the lava cave or mistimed our trip! There’s so much to do on the way, I’d recommend to leave as early as you can or even do the trip over two days. We also used this for the Haleakalā drive during the day, which we’d also recommend. 👍.CcthescientistVersion: 1.4.4

✓ We love the music, the tales and the guide!Great app and definitely makes the tour very doable on your own! We enjoyed it along the way and it definitely made our trip a lot more interesting!.Lollypop1209Version: 1.4.4

✓ 5 Stars, this app is brilliant!More than worth the money! 🤙🏻 Road to Hana was my favourite part of Hawaii. Mahalo.Rock n roll....Version: 1.4.4

✓ So fun!We did the full loop to Hana. This was an awesome guide around the loop with fun music and facts about Maui and it’s history, with great stop suggestions! There is a sign just before the Venus pools that’s says “Shaka guide irresponsible” and that is just not true! One thing that the guide said though that was not true is when you go to Haleakala National park, the guide says if you have a ticket from a previous day (like from driving to the top) that is expired the parks service will honor it for a cheaper price instead of paying the full fee again. This is not true, our ticket was 2 days expired and we had to pay the full price again, FYI the tickets expires 3 days after purchase. Also we tried to make a reservation for the black sand beach the day before and it was already sold out so I recommend planning farther ahead and looking multiple days in advance. Other than that this was awesome and I would totally use it again!.Stephenie dawnVersion: 5.1.5

✓ FantasticMade the road to Hana an awesome experience. This app is amazing and very accurate!!.Kelly&DerekVersion: 8.0.0

✓ Personal tour guideMust have for anyone planning a trip on the Hana Highway. (Even if you already have a great book about Maui (e.g. "Maui Revealed"). It really was like having a tour guide in your car. Since cell service is basically non-existent through the rainforest, it was nice that this worked without data. The tour guide's instructions for pull outs were SPOT ON, and he gave good advice on what was not to be missed and what you could skip for the sake of time. We used this app in addition to the book "Maui Revealed" and felt it vastly improved our trip. You don't want to spend time with your head down in a book during this tour for a couple of reasons. 1) You could miss something, and 2) you could get car sick. So if you have that book and think you don't need this... you may want to reconsider. IMPORTANT: Don't forget to download the app AND the tour (purchased in-app after it installs) before you go. It takes a while for the tour to install, and I had to give it several attempts because of the spotty internet service at the resort. I recommend doing it a day or two in advance (or at home using your own wireless network before leaving for your vacation)..NCGirl1972Version: 1.1

✓ Perfect accompaniment to the trip!I can't believe we thought we were going to attempt the Road to Hana without a guide. Thank God we downloaded the Shaka Guide - we thought it was very clever how it worked on GPS to tell us where we were and recommend points along the way. It was really interesting to hear all the history, and feel like we had our own private tour guide, without having to suffer a minibus full of other people. Thanks so much - will definitely be getting the Oahu version later in the week once we're there! Aloha!.SmellycatsmellycatVersion: 1.0

✓ Super helpfulThis is a great app to guide you through this road! 100% recommended! I’d also suggest that you stay at the Wainapanapa State Park and camp there for at least 2 nights to have time to enjoy what the road to Hana as to offer. Most beautiful points are towards the end of the road in my experience. We rented a campervan and sleep at the park for 2 nights with a reservation done 30 days prior . They do not accept last min reservations..DanielavoyyvuelvoVersion: 4.0.4

✓ Excellent guide!!!I debated between signing up for a tour or doing the drive myself since I have a car. I though buying a tour would be safer for a female lone traveler like myself but the tours are so expensive! I decided to download the app & took the reverse route for a fraction of money that tours are charging . I made the best decision in doing that! The app. goes over a lot of details esp. safety and timing . I had my own private guide in the car with me along the way. I even took a few wrong turns and it brought be back on track. It kept me on track with the time too, making me decide which stops to make or not . I left Paia at 8:00 am and was back safely before 6:00 , plenty of daylight! I have to tell you though , the guide is very concerned about your safety and the first part of the tour will warn you about driving through unpaved roads as the rental agencies strongly discourages it! I had to pull over and ask a tour bus driver (parked in one of their stops) if he thinks I’ll make it with the car I have. A regular 4 door sedan. Driver said don’t worry I’ll be ok. Well, I went through those roads with a sedan and did just fine ! I highly recommend this app for anyone doing the road to Hana! I learned so much about the history of Hawaii along the way and the music they played in between points are impeccable! I had the best day in Maui today ! Thanks Shaka app for a stress free, and VERY economical way to the road to Hana!.FemalelonetravelerVersion: 2.0.11

✓ Must have App for Maui!I lived on Maui for almost a year about 30 years ago but decided it would be fun and helpful to have an app guide on our recent vacation and road trip to Hana. The Shaka Guide App was the perfect combination of map, guide, places of interest, humor, music, culture, language, history, and what I might call local knowledge. We LOVED this app! The guide/narrator gave great insight, helpful hints and plenty of silly jokes that you might expect from any in person tour guide. I especially appreciated when the guide made suggestions about what sites could be skipped and what sites were not to be missed. On our return trip from Hana, we listened to the history portion of the journey and I was amazed at how much we learned from the small soundbites. Hearing this history is so important in a place like Hawaii and should not be missed if you use this app. Besides the content of the app, we were very impressed with how the app functioned as it followed our journey with many stops and slow downs. With only a few exceptions the guide/narration followed us perfectly on our journey. By the time we finished our trip I think we were honestly both a little sad to turn off the app. I would recommend this app without hesitation for anyone visiting Hawaii!.JakewisdomVersion: 5.1.0
