Death Valley

You may think you want to venture out but these tours give you options so you don’t miss a single amazing opportunity. Choose your own adventure and we did. Every moment and laughed with Uncle Shaka along the way.

Death Valley

Good job with clear directions. Only issue I had was this time we did the short visit so the story of how Death Valley got its name was not told.

Awesome !

These apps are wonderful. I have used them in Hawaii and just used the Red Rock Canyon guide. I love all the stories and the hiking suggestions. Make the driving tours enjoyable and fun

Awesome

This is our second time to use a Shaka tour. It is incredible. I have been to Red Rock many times. I learned so much that I didn’t know. I can’t wait to do it again!

Great Tour experience

We had a free code as part of our Go City gift for a few Vegas experiences. The app worked well but really drained my phone battery. Cool tour of Red Rock Canyon.

Shannon Whitton | 1 year ago | Android

We used the self guide thru Death Valley and found the setup easy once I found out I had to download this app ( I guess I purchased on a different website and the directions they provided weren't clear). I called Shaka but it was only like 5am in Hawaii, I didn't leave a message because we were already on our way but someone actually called me back with still enough time to get it all set up before lossing service! The stories were great. I was very impressed & will use again for Grand Canyon.

Simple to use, yet very informative and entertaining. Just came back from Red Rock Canyon. Mind blown. Thank you!

Death Valley glitches

Love Shaka Guide since using in Moab last year. Recent Death Valley guide is awesome except for some minor but annoying audio glitches and skips. Would be 5 star without the glitches.
