OUR MISSION
Here at Shaka Guide our goal is to connect people with places. We love Hawaii. Not just for its beauty, but also for its rich history and culture. We believe that every destination has a story and we want to tell it. In Hawaii, we have over 20 audio tours that do just that -- share the stories of the islands.
These location-based tours offer an immersive experience with authentic storytelling and music by local artists. We’re proud to have the highest-rated Hawaii travel apps in the App Store and Google Play store. A tremendous amount of care goes into each tour we create. Every site we visit, word we say, and song we select has been hand picked and crafted for quality.
Mahalo Nui Loa! We hope you’ll tour with us soon.
Rita and Andrew (pictured above) founded Shaka Guide in 2016 as a way to offer a guided tour experience at a fraction of the price leaving travelers with a deeper understanding and appreciation for Hawaii.
OUR APPS
Our apps for Maui, Kauai, Big Island and Oahu have a total of 21 audio tours that give you the freedom to explore on your own terms. They offer turn-by-turn directions to popular sites and local gems, but you decide where to go along the route and how long you’ll stay. It’s your vacation -- what you see and do is totally up to you. The tours work completely offline meaning you can rest assured that even if you lose service we'll get you where you need to go. The best part? You won't just see these beautiful sites, you'll connect with them as you immerse yourself in their history and legends.
YOUR PURCHASE GIVES BACK
At Shaka Guide we believe in supporting local organizations - the ones that are working to keep beaches clean, preserve native plants and animals, and pass down stories from generations ago. Whether it's conservation efforts or cultural enrichment, their dedicated work helps make it possible for us to share interesting stories and make awesome tours! That's why we donate a portion of your purchase to the charity of your choice.
Here's how it works: you make a purchase, we'll send you a list of nonprofits, and you select the one you want us to donate to. It's that easy! You can learn more about the organizations we support here.
