We learned about Shaka Guide in HI and are so happy to see them expanding to other national parks and adventure areas in the continental US as well. Excellent experience. We will always use them for guided tours where available. Thank you!!

Great way to tour the national parks

  • Fabulous guide!

We have used the the Shaka Guide at four national parks and each time the guide helped illuminate and navigate each park making the day we spent in the parks some of our best vacation days ever. It can be hard to plan a trip without a lot of research and local expert knowledge but with the Shaka guide you don’t need either. The music is great too. Not too much, not too little of either the guide talking or the music playing.
