Favorite Part of the Trip!
I happened to hear about the Shaka Tours Maui app when we first arrived on the island, and I’m so glad we did. We bought the Maui Bundle, and it was absolutely worth it. The directions were spot on (my kids were convinced the narrator was literally following us 😂). We started with the Classic Road to Hana tour (wish we’d downloaded the Loop too!), then did the West Maui Coastline Tour, and also the Sunset & Stargazing at Haleakalā tour. Every time we got in the car, the kids asked us to turn on the tour guide; that says it all. One of my kids said the tours were his favorite part of our 11 days on the island. The narration was entertaining and engaging, with awesome stories, legends, and really helpful tips and tricks along the way. These tours truly made our trip to Maui! We are officially hooked!! It enhanced our entire Maui experience and made exploring so easy and fun for the whole family. Highly recommend!

Sean Anter | 3 days ago | AndroidGreat!
Used Shaka Guide to experience West Maui and the Road to Hana. It really was like having a personal tour guide to show you the highlights and keep you safe on the road. The narrator was entertaining and informative. Will use again for other national parks!
