YES!!! A thousand times YES..

This might be my very first app review I have done. I will do reviews on Tripadvisor/Google, but never for an app. People need to know about this app. Shaka and I toured Oahu together a few weeks ago. I bought the bundle and did three complete tours off the bundle. The Northshore, the rainforest and east Oahu. I would have missed sooooo much if it wasn’t for my trusted pal, Shaka. I even took the suggestion of stopping at a fruit stand on the North Shore. After Hawaii I traveled to Florida and bought the OverSeas Highway tour and completed that this weekend. I learned so much about the Keys on my way to Key West and stopped to feed the tarpon at Robbie’s. I was sorry to see it end when we reached Key West. Hopefully, a Key West tour is on the horizon. I can’t wait to do some more exploring with Shaka.
