Kauai Revealed Drive Tour for Positive User Reviews
✓ Unique and insightful informationWe really are enjoying the insights into the current and past of Kauai as we drive through the island. Great care and thought put into what stories and information is included. Guide is a wonderful addition to our experience and we’ve been coming to Kauai since 1987. By the way Andrew sounds like Bob Roll, the Tour De France color commentator. To whom we really enjoy listening..Version: 4.0
✓ You need this for your vacation!Hands down the best! Interesting and helpful. I pulled my four kids out of school for vacation this winter. Felt like we had a few educational days with this driving tour app. The kids loved it! The stories along with the points of interest and hikes are fantastic. When asked what the highlight of our ten day trip (boogie boarding, snorkeling, luau, etc) my kids (age 14,12, 9 and 9) said the driving with this app. Don’t hesitate…get it now!!.Version: 4.0
✓ What we didn't know our vacation was missing...Not only did we laugh out loud, but saw so many things we likely would have missed too. Learning about the history and culture of the islands while driving through the unbelievable scenery gave us a better appreciation and understanding of the island and definitely added a level of enjoyment we didn’t even know we were missing on our previous trips..Version: 1.23
✓ Informative but was repetitive after a whileDownloaded this during our 10 days stay in Kauai. My boys (10 & 12 yr olds) would tell us to “turn on the guy!” as soon as we’d get in the car. It was like having our very own tour guide. However, toward the end of our trip and after we’ve explored everything around us and we’ve driven down the same roads, the narrations started to get old. We stopped using it until we’d get on a road that’s new to us and we’d turn the guy back on to see what he has to say. We also have the book and referred to that as well..Version: 1.32
✓ Amazing In-Car Tour Guide that’ll have you laughing!!I’m a professional pilot too like the author, and fly to Kauai almost every month. While I’m on my layover here, I always turn on this app as soon as I depart the airport and listen to the many interesting things he has to say! I’m cracking up over his hilarious jokes, and the way he presents the many detailed facts about all of the points of interests all around the island. As you drive along in your car, he’ll have you look left or right and talk about the geography, historical spots, beautiful and fun attractions, good restaurants and even places to avoid. If you’re keen on knowing amazing, jaw dropping and head scratching facts about Kauai. As well as having a great experience with your own personal in-car tour guide. Then you need to download this app, it’s so worth it and you won’t be disappointed!.Version: 1.32
✓ Perfect for touringI thoroughly enjoyed having Andrew in the car with me! He was informative and funny. Highly recommend this app to help you get the most from your Kauai trip..Version: 1.32
✓ Concierge service in the car!Bought this just about a week before we arrived on Kauai and it has been fantastic. Informative, detailed, funny, interesting. Ended up being a great value. We had to rewind a few times because we were using Google Maps and wanted to hear Andrew not the maps! Highly recommend this app!.Version: 1.23
✓ Best travel app i have EVER usedIf your going to Kauai this is a must have. For the first couple days we just drove around and stopped at what we could see that looked fun. We missed so much. Found this app and it tells you about all the must see spots as you drive. Just turn it on and thats it. We were even directed to a beach that was not listed on any maps which turned out to be our favorite beach to hang out at. Best $20 we spent and will save you time!!!!.Version: 4.0
✓ Great App for Driving TourBeen to Kauai several times over the years, but latest was 17 years ago. Got the APP and found new places missed over the years. Enjoyed the stories along the way too. He’s a little tough on the Kauai Coffee tour, but we really enjoyed that along with their coffee shop and mainland prices for large scoops of ice cream. Don’t stop at Lappert’s in Princeville that he recommends, they were rude, ice cream in very small portions and not that good. Another thing he doesn’t tell you that a lot of places are closed on the weekends. Such as the Niihau bead shop in Koloa. Other than those little things the APP is a must have and I’ll give it 5 stars!.Version: 3.1
✓ Great companion to a driving tourWe used this while driving and found so many cool little spots we would have missed. Yes we have the book but this makes it easy to driving and enjoy without having to check and double check. Good tidbits of history. He’s funny plus engaging and also tells you the best places to eat, grab ice cream or shave ice..Version: 4.0
✓ Totally worth the $We just got back from Kauai, and this app was so great! I opened it as soon as we left the airport, and everyone - from my 15 yo daughter to my 70 yo mother in law enjoyed this app. “Are you gonna turn Andrew on?” Yep! We loved his stories, the tips about where to stop or where to eat, and the information he shared about different places. While much of the information is the same as in the guidebook, there’s just no beating having him tell you about the tree tunnel *as you drive through it* or the red dirt, as you drive past it. Turn by turn instructions, clear recommendations, funny stories - this was GREAT..Version: 1.32
✓ Learn and understand the landWe have one of his books and thought, do we need another app? Then figured if Andrew did it it’s probably pretty content rich, do we did - and it is. We drove the island from Hanalei all around to Barking Sands Beach and back. We’ve been here 6 times and learned more than we knew in total before. It’s worth the dough, and your time..Version: 1.23
✓ Great appThis is our first trip to Kauai. A friend told us about the book so we purchased it before our trip. Once we were on the Island we purchased the app. Of course it’s great to use while driving however the browsing mode is just as nice to use when you are in the condo planning your next day’s activities. If you are planning to drive around the island, this app is a must..Version: 1.32
✓ AmazingWe used this app everyday. We were on vacation with our family and we all agree that this is amazing. Good and accurate details. The narrator was fun to listen to. We were able to listen to Hawaiian music and the app would stop the music and talk. Didn’t talk all the time. Just when needed. Great recommendations for food and sights. Well worth the price. We felt like we had our own personal tour guide..Version: 3.1
✓ MUST HAVE APPThis is an absolutely fantastic app and was worth every penny. Wonderfully guided tours, helpful hints with better directions than Google at times. Even if you’ve been to the island a few times and think you’re savvy, this app is still worth it. Great accompaniment to the book, makes it easier to dig in and see as much or as little as possible. Also, the CS team is responsive, full of aloha spirit and helpful. 6 stars..Version: 1.23
✓ A Perfect Driving CompanionWe loved having Andrew guide us around Kauai and share interesting and amusing stories. He shares local spots of interest, historical information mixed in with just the right amount of personal narrations..Version: 3.1
✓ Great Value!Bought this app to accompany my cherished “blue book” (Kauai Revealed). So glad we did, and only wished we had done the same for our prior week on Maui! It’s challenging to follow printed guides while on the road, so this GPS turn-by-turn audio guide was such a relief from the car sickness that I endured on Maui. Great tips along the way along with history tidbits made this a gem of an app. Suggestion: add a section where one can go back and listen to key recordings again by title and or area. Would love to hear about the formation of waves again but no idea where that was. Thank you for a great app and of course the blue guide books!.Version: 3.1
✓ Best investment ever!I have been a follower of Revealed for since Honeymoon trip 18 years ago and not ever Island had a book. While I love the books the narration takes everything to a whole new level. Yes it’s funny, entertaining and educational but most importantly it maximize our engagement with this wonderful island. As with everything done by Revealed the app knocked it out of the park! Thank you for being part of our journey!.Version: 1.23
✓ Can’t imagine a better guideBest advice I can pass along to anyone visiting Kuai is to download this app. Interesting and funny to listen to and super helpful in deciding what to see or do while we were in Kuai. Just download it and start driving. The narrator gives you options, advice and plenty of time to decide before you reach a turnoff. And you can trust the recommendations. Also it’s very, very accurate with the gps. As we drove (or rather bumped) down an unpaved road the app was silent. The very moment we hit asphalt again the narrator said out loud what we were all thinking. “Ah, pavement again.” We all laughed out loud..Version: 1.23
✓ Phenomenal!!This is by far the best travel app we have ever had, and it sets the bar quite high for anything to follow. We were able to see and experience things we would have clearly missed if it were not for this app. A great companion to The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook. Both provide accurate and relevant information to get the best out of your trip. Highly recommended!!! Mahalo..Version: 2.0
✓ Greatly enhanced our tripThis app makes a great place even better. I highly recommend it for your driving trip around Kauai. The only negative comment I have is that I think some of the hike descriptions underrate distance and effort required. But overall the author’s love of and knowledge of the Garden Island come through loud and clear. Highly recommend-especially when used in tandem with the book..Version: 4.0
✓ Love this App!We have only been in Kauai for a few days and are already loving this app. We have been here 3 previous times and Andrew has now shown us all the hidden gems we have been missing. It felt like he could hear our conversations because suddenly he would answer our question. Very thankful to have this! Wish I could have this available to any place I travel. Buy this for sure before you travel to Kauai..Version: 3.1
✓ Stop thinking & get this app!This driving tour is informational, entertaining, and just downright great. My husband and I loved driving the island and learning about all the sites while also hearing personal stories from the author. Highly, highly recommend. It’s a fantastic addition to the Kauai Revealed Guidebook. My ONLY suggestion is to make a package deal for the driving tour, physical guide book, and the Hawaii Revealed app. I ended up purchasing all 3 and I don’t regret it as they are all useful for different reasons!.Version: 1.32
✓ A must have app for traveling KauaiI am so happy that I not only found his book but also the app. Not only does he give you all the tips for getting around the island the parking tips were super helpful. Stories about the history of Kauai was an unexpected bonus. If you’re going to Kauai do not hesitate to buy this app! You won’t be sorry..Version: 4.0
✓ Best travel app ever!I bought Andrew Dougherty’s Kauai Revealed book (for the second time, since my last trip was 5 years ago… his new edition just came out a couple months ago, and boy have things changed in those 5 years!). I read the book almost cover to cover, and was trying to remember tidbits, facts, and stories to tell my family as we were driving around the island. THEN I saw the ad in the back of the book for this app. At first the price felt a little steep, but because I like the writing in the book, and because there were so many good reviews, I went ahead with the purchase. Oh my goodness, what a good decision that was! My teens and spouse adored listening to Andrew pop on the car radio as we were going from here to there. We are now big fans of Shave Ice (with the ice cream bottom), and can confirm that the Hee Fat store and JoJo’s both have the best selection and flavor. Sooo good. Andrew is a good speaker and interesting to listen to; we actually learned a huge amount of island history just during our drives. Also cool was setting up a Hawaiian radio station on Pandora and listening to that in between the times Andrew would start talking. Finally, you absolutely must have an in-car charger for your phone, or your battery will be dead by afternoon and you won’t be able to take pics at your fun destination. Thanks Andrew and team!.Version: 3.1
✓ Brilliant!We can’t say enough good things about this GPS driving tour app. Best $20 we’ve ever spent on vacation! The Kauai Revealed book was in the condo we rented and it was indispensable. So glad we found the link to the app! It honestly changed our trip. We felt like Andy was in the back seat with us. So many of the scenic turn-offs we would never have found on our own. We loved the narration on the history and culture, and his personal stories. It made everything we saw so much more meaningful. Highly recommend!.Version: 4.0
✓ A fabulous guided tour!My wife and I downloaded this app to supplement the excellent guide book by the same author during our 2 week visit. We used it nearly every day as we explored the island, and the thoughtful and often witty narration added a great deal to our enjoyment of the experience! I have used similar guides before but they were never as well done. I highly recommend this guide!.Version: 4.0
✓ Best Purchase on the Island!I didn’t need to do weeks of planning going into this trip. All we needed was this app to explain everything to us as we drove around. Sure you can google notable beaches and vistas but they are not as easy to find and park at as one would believe. The dude in this app knew it ALL, and not only that he is very unbiased and committed to providing reviews and suggestions of attractions and restaurants that are not swayed by anything other than his honest feedback. Which Google also doesn’t provide, nor do there many travel bloggers. They are sponsored. Also we learned so much about Hawaiian history and culture and why there are chickens everywhere just be hanging out and touring the island. It added so much to our experience! Thanks for making this app, you are quite funny. And have a soothing voice..Version: 4.0
✓ Phenomenal App A+++I was so fortunate that a lady from Colorado told us about this app our first day in Princeville. We saw and learned things that made our trip the best I have ever had. The combination of stories, trivia, reviews, tips and manner of presentation just doubled our enjoyment of the island. We drove the whole island as our new best friend was “virtually” in the back seat. The writer truly has a gift and has obviously put in a tremendous amount of work to make this guide happen. This was a trip to prepare myself spiritually and in mind for upcoming prostrate cancer treatments. Thank you sir for this gift! Much friendship and love from Michelle and Dan, October 22-29th. Mahalo!!.Version: 4.0
✓ Fun and informativeSuch fun to have an audiobook companion for our meandering around the island. I didn’t realize it would be so user friendly - just download ahead of time, make sure your phone is plugged into power and go. We wish we could have had time to explore the whole island with the tour. We would definitely recommend it and get other versions for other islands..Version: 3.1
✓ Indispensable!We would never have found certain hikes or parking spots without this app! My kids enjoyed the stories and we were all upset when my phone’s battery died on a long Drive home from Waimea canyon. The author’s personal experiences were interesting and authentic and gave us a better understanding and appreciation of Kauai. The printed guide book was also terrific..Version: 1.32
✓ Amazing companion appThis app is amazing and well worth the money. We have the book and the Hawaii revealed Kauai app and adding this one really complimented everything. While out doing things, because of the narration of this app, we added so many micro adventures that we never would have known even existed without the suggestions of this app. Really added depth and joy to our trip..Version: 3.1
✓ A must for your trip to KauaiThis driving guide will help you find places of interest to stop and explore while filling you in on the history of Kauai. We visited locations that we wouldn’t have stopped at if we didn’t have this guide. Hearing about some of the history of the island was enlightening. The guide will find you at your present location through GPS and start to give you directions and information. Absolutely wonderful!!.Version: 1.32
✓ Amazing app and Amazing Narrator!My wife and I are currently in Kauai, and have been using the app from day 1. Andrew has been wonderful to listen to as we have driven all over the island. This is an amazing app, and would highly recommend the app to anyone planning to spend time in Kauai. Thanks Andrew for sharing your many years of experiences on Kauai with us as we have traveled around the island..Version: 1.32
✓ Worth every penny!What a fantastic way to learn about this island while driving! It saved us time, and guesswork while giving us the ability to learn about place we would have never gone to, and avoid what we thought may have been worthwhile. Found some local spots with your guidance that made the trip!!’ Thank you!!!.Version: 4.0
✓ Fantastic appI was incredibly impressed with the precision of this app when driving around the island. The fact that it would give different narration depending on the direction you were driving on the road was far more than I was expecting. And the commentary was great. As soon as my wife complained about all the speed bumps the narration would comment as well. He really knows this island. A great supplement to the Revealed books..Version: 4.0
✓ Kauai drive tour appWe have used his revealed books for all the other Islands. This was our first first trip to Kauai so we bought the book and the app. We traveled from the north shore to the west shore and the app was perfect. Used Apple car play . We learned more about the island and its history while traveling to destinations. Would never be without the app. It’s like he’s in the backseat looking over your shoulder. And that’s a good thing! J&L.Version: 4.0
✓ Great AppJust enjoyed a week long stay on Kauai with my wife and kids. It was nice to turn on the app, just drive and get a little history lesson and find places we wouldn’t have known about. We also have two copies of The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook, my wife felt the need to get the newest addition since it had been four years since our last visit..Version: 1.32
✓ Reveal Kauai Driving appWe loved this Kauai driving app. No matter where you are on the island it worked perfectly. We thought Andrew’s stories and advice were awesome while using the app. We felt like he was in the back seat being our personal guide. We even had friends in the car on a day trip and they thought the narration was awesome as well..Version: 1.23
✓ 100% Worth the price!Our family loved having this guide while touring around the island. Funny and insightful!.Version: 4.0
✓ Best “backseat” guide!We can’t say enough good things about this app. When he says it will be like having him in the backseat, believe it. The way the GPS knows right where you are and the amazing detailed, educational and entertaining information you will receive is fantastic. Yes, it is much the same as the information you’ll get in the book. But who wants to have their nose in the book when you are driving around on the garden. Island in such beauty. The book can be your back up for when you want to revisit some information or find a restaurant. Best 20 bucks we spent on Kauai. Our only regret is that we didn’t use it on the big island..Version: 4.0
✓ A must and worth the “splurge”My family of 6 (2 grandparents, mom, dad and 2 kids 8 and 11 yrs old) absolutely loved this tour app. It completely enriched our experience in Kauai. Lots of history, tour, restaurant and beach recommendations and quick with a joke. Any time we were in the car we had the app running. Loved that we could play the local radio or our own music and the guide audio will come in and out. Would highly recommend and worth the app “splurge”..Version: 4.0
✓ Informative and FUN!We did many fun things during our 6 days on Kauai, including my first ever time scuba diving. But the best over-all day was starting early in the morning (which is easy to do thanks to the roosters) and driving ALL over the island being guided by Andrew’s narration. So informative, clever and funny. Next time we’ll also get his book. Highly recommend! I even ran into a lady walking through a parking lot and I recognized Andrew’s voice coming from her phone; we both agreed it was a fabulous find!.Version: 1.32
✓ Made our trip even more spectacular!We loved this app! The audio tour worked well in tracking our location, and was much handier to use in Waimea Canyon than our GPS since cell service was dodgy there. We loved hearing stories about Kauai’s history and culture. Because of this app we learned so much, and it directed us to sights we wouldn’t have known about otherwise! I wish there was a guide like this for every city I visit! Even though I also have the guidebook, this was DEFINITELY worth the additional investment! I’d recommend it to anyone traveling to Kauai who wants to learn more about the island..Version: 4.0
✓ Don’t Leave Home Without It!Andrew Doughty’s “Kauai Revealed” app was sooo helpful on our trip to Kauai this week. Even though we also had his book to refer to, the driving app directed us to locations we most likely would never have found or thought to visit. His commentary was very enlightening and entertaining, with lots of valuable information on the history, culture, language, and respect for the customs of the Hawaiians. One comment, however, on some of the hiking trails, is possibly listing a recommended ability level or age range. My husband and I are 75 and 78 and do a lot of hiking on the mainland, but found a few of these hikes a little too dicey for us. For instance, one of the “moderate” trails near Princeville, in addition to being steep with exposed roots, rocks and somewhat slippery conditions, even using the ropes to hold onto to get down to the beach, we decided to turn back! Anyway, just a caution to seniors!.Version: 4.0
✓ Awesome app!I can’t tell you how much my wife and I appreciated having this app guide us around the beautiful island of Kauai during our visit! It truly is like having a friend in the car with you who has all the intimate details, accurate driving instructions, history of the island, and other cultural information to make for a completely enjoyable touring experience! We’ve used other apps on other islands and this one is by far the best, hands down. Andrew and his staff have really done their research, and you can be confident in their recommendations of things to do and see along the way, as well as their advice about things to avoid or be careful about (hiway speed traps!). Along the way Andrew sprinkles in a fair amount of humor and personal stories that keep the narrative light, yet informative. We highly recommend this app - its more than worth its price, and will greatly enhance your enjoyment and appreciation for this amazing island! Ron Churchill.Version: 4.0
✓ Great App. Highly Recommend!!We were so lucky to find this app. It literally made our trip!! We were here for 6 days and were able to almost tour the entire island. We came across places and spots we wouldn’t have known about if it wasn’t for Andrew. And the best part is that my kids really loved it. As soon as we got into the car, they asked to play Andrew :). We are a family of 5 and it felt like Andrew is the 6th member. We can’t wait to reveal other islands with Andrew. Thank you so much! Mahalo :).Version: 3.1
✓ You need this in Kauai!We have been to Kauai before and have read the Kauai Revealed book from cover to cover. The app is the book and so much more. We just spent 3 weeks exploring the island with the app. First of all, Andrew’s narration is hilarious while being well paced, historically interesting and spot on with what Kauai is all about. We saw and did things that we would not have discovered on our own. The cost is cheap for all that it offers to make a visit packed with adventure. We were directed to the right places to snorkel, hike, bike, eat, kayak, whale watch and relax with a beautiful sunset. Kudos to Lisa for all her help!.Version: 1.23
✓ Fantastic virtual tour guideI bought the book prior to my trip and it was invaluable in prepping for our Kaua’i destinations. Then once on the island, the app served as our tour guide and provided us with great directions and stories along the way. It’s worth every penny to get the app if you’re driving yourself around the island. Plus Andrew’s voice is very pleasant to listen to! It’s like having a friend who lives on the island with you..Version: 1.32
✓ Excellent appCell service (which directly relates to Apple Maps or Google Maps) is pretty awful in a lot of the places on the island of Kauai. This app was a lifesaver helping us get around. The navigation help was great but we also especially enjoyed all the stories and the historical information. We had purchased the book Kauai Revealed but this app was actually so much more helpful considering the spotty cell service. It’s a little pricey, but I get it; a guy’s gotta make a living!.Version: 4.0
✓ Fabulous addition to the Kauai Revealed bookAbsolutely loved that we could listen to facts and directions while driving. The app tracked our GPS so it narrated wherever we went without having to continuously tap on areas of interest. The author has a sense of humor, pronounces words for us and definitely enhanced our visit. So glad the author published this option to enjoy!!.Version: 3.1
