The Oahu Grand Circle tour start in Waikiki was confusing; there aren't clear street signs everywhere; made 1 turn prematurely, figured it out a few blocks later, then the app took us back around! But once we got going, we had a good tour of the island. If we stopped at every stop, it would have taken more than 8 hours, especially if we swam or hiked;we skipped a few places. Rental car had to be back by 5; we left around 8:45, returned 4:45.

The North Shore Tour from Waikiki was fabulous, with great narration and lots of wonderful stops. I can’t wait to use the app again on another trip.

My sister and I decided to rent a car for our time in Waikiki so we would not be tethered to large group tours. When I found the Shaka guide, I was excited to use it but wasn’t 100% sure how it would work and how well it would work. From the second, I started my first tour I was blown away by how in depth the directions were, how entertaining and educational the stories were, and how delightful the presenter was. I would recommend this and will recommend this to everybody that I know that is heading to Hawaii and the other national parks. Thank you Shaka for making my Waikiki trip even better than what I thought it could be!
