Shaka FTW 🤙
We first found out about Shaka Guide before our trip to Maui a couple years ago. From our 10-year-olds up to our 18-year-olds and ourselves, we all really enjoyed the guide, commentary, etc for our trip to Maui. Fast forward to last summer and we went to Glacier national Park and my son said it would be cool if there was a Shaka Guide for here… i’m glad we looked because we bought that Parks tour and it was equally informative and entertaining. This morning, I purchased Big Bend National Park, we used it for the Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive today and will use it again tomorrow in the park. This really is one of the best apps! The whole family loves it.

Really enjoyed the narration of things to do mixed in with history and information. Would have missed out on many of our trips highlights. We had done the Road to Hana Shaka guide and loved it so tried this one above others. You won’t be disappointed! The only thing better would be more information and stories for the drive back.

This is a must for road to Hana. Told us about every stop and great information on the way. Wouldn’t have known where to stop without this. Very well done and worth it.

What to wear to the Haleakala sunset?
Dress warmly in layers for the Haleakala sunset. Temperatures drop significantly in the park, especially at high altitudes. We recommend you bring a jacket, hat, gloves, and blankets. You’ll also want to bring water and snacks.
