We had 1 day to explore Great Smokey National Park. Shaka guide to the rescue! We just listen to the guide , make choices about where to go & what to do as he gave us choices & follow his directions. We did a hike, saw bears, toured a historical homesteading area. It was relaxed & no stress & minimal planning. Thanks!

We loved using this for our drives around the big island! Tons of good factoids and stories to fill the time while you drive for hours while exploring this amazing place. The only reason we did not give 5 stars are: 1. We really needed the speed limits posted in the app like google maps does. There are so many changes that happen quickly if you are trying to switch between the 2 it gets overwhelming and conflicting directions got us mixed up a few times. 2. The music is much louder than the narration so we had to adjust our volume back and forth a lot. If it was a bit quieter setting that the talking that would have been perfect. 3. Sometimes the directions would be exactly at the point where you were supposed to turn so we missed at least 5 where we had to do a turn around and go back. And then sometimes the directions would be very far out so we would slow down way too early. The map was very helpful but if we lost service it wouldn’t always put us in the right location for the narrator to be correct. Other than those things we greatly enjoyed our Shaka guide and are excited to try it on another island!!

My family and I love Shaka guide and have used for multiple trips!! Highly recommend!

Our family has loved the 4 drives we took with the Shaka Guide and look forward to more to come! The stories are great and we feel like we are on a tour with a local guide!

We loved almost everything about our Shaka tour of Arches, Canyonlands, and La Sal Mountain Loop. I wish I had the option on 4 1/2 stars. The guide synced well with our GPS and we got through all three parks with ease. The narrative was interesting and we learned so much about the area. The music was an added bonus. We were also pleasantly surprised by the added bonus of guidance through Dead Horse Point State Park. Our glitch was at the end of the La Sal Mountain Loop we opted for the additional stop at Courthouse Wash to see petroglyphs. Twice the guide said the stop was 1/2 mile ahead but we weren't told where to stop. Other than that the Shaka guide was great! We also used Shaka for Maui and found it to be so helpful.

We loved the Shaka guide while touring Arches National Park ! Great knowing what is coming up, how long the hikes are etc. Love learning the history and the stories !
