Customer Reviews
After friend's recommendation, we used the app for our tour of Volcanoes National Park on Hawaii. Amazing! It turned our four our road trip into a professional guided tour! Highly recommend it for ant National Park visit!
CGF | 2 weeks ago | AndroidOur family is in Kona for 10 days. We bought the Big Island bundle. We are very impressed with the pace, accuracy, thoroughness and historic information provided on these guides. We can travel at our leisure and visit the sites we want for as long as we want. Excited to explore the rest of the island using this awesome app. I would encourage anyone traveling to Kona and renting a car, to purchase these tours.
Lisa Jorgensen | 2 months ago | Androidfantastic guide, we used it extensively at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and it really added to the trip. I don't usually spend money on apps but this was worth every penny!
