Think of us as your personal tour guide in an app. Our tours provide everything a guided tour does, but with the freedom to explore on your terms. Here’s how it works:


  • GPS triggers audio narration to play automatically as you drive or walk. Listen to stories, get local insights, visit must-see stops and get turn-by-turn navigation.
  • The app works offline so even with spotty service we’ll get you where you need to go.

Pretty cool huh? We think so! Check out our tours and let’s explore together.

There isn’t enough space to fit in all the benefits of Shaka Guide’s tour of Big Bend National Park. The GPS locator is accurate, and the narration is superb. Get ready for Park history, including but not limited to paleontology, geology, and land ownership. Stories of the past abound, interspersed with music that fits the topic and the period being talked about by the narrator. We learned so much more than any of the Parks’s 3 (very nice) Visitors Center could possibly teach us, plus, you learn while you’re touring—super efficient and entertaining! I cannot recommend Shaka Guide’s more heartily—regardless of which tour you choose.

Great value. If you are hiring a car in Hawaii, you MUST download this app. It is fantastic. We did the North Shore tour. The directions were awesome, funny, and informative. We made a few wrong turns, driver error, and it would have been great for the app to recognise we had gone off course, but we quickly realised we had left the "blue line" in the navigation, and got back on track fairly quickly. Overall, it made our day so much better for the guidance it provided.

Wouldn’t have made the drive without it! worked great with no service and the storytelling was great. The only this is that the lava tube was closed so might be worth an update. Also maybe pointing out that the Nahiku Marketplace is really small bc we drove right past it thinking the line of food trucks wasn’t it haha

They did an awesome job of the Petrified Forest National Park. A great balance of facts, info and history.

I thought the information was good, the stories interesting but I found that if we veered off the path of the guide, it was difficult getting back to the exact spot on the guide. Using mile markers would be helpful. We were in Poipu Kauai.

This absolutely made our trip to Hana! An almost 10 hour round trip adventure was filled with fun, music and history. We had a perfect day that I didn’t have to plan a thing for.

This was a fantastic way to tour Bryce Canyon. I loved learning about the history of the canyon along with the “Legend People” told by the Paiute. The hoodoos are a must see!
