Think of us as your personal guide to Maui. With Shaka Guide, you’ll get the comfort of a guided tour, the benefits of a travel guide book AND the freedom to explore at your own pace.
During your Shaka Guide tour you’ll get directions as you drive, hear stories about the places you’re visiting, and listen to Hawaiian music. The history of the islands will be revealed as your drive!
The app features six tours of the island that visit popular spots like the Road to Hana, Haleakala, Kaanapali, Kapalua, and even the reverse Road to Hana. But It’s your vacation, what you see and do it totally up to you. Whether you want to hike a scenic trail, hit the beach or visit an ancient historic spot - you choose!
All tours are made locally in the Hawaiian Islands. During your trip we'll share our favourite things to do on the island as well as travel tips for your visit. Whether you’re traveling for recreation, work, or with family, Shaka Guide is sure to keep your entire group entertained. Don’t believe us? Check out our reviews!
The app and map works completely offline. This means that even in remote parts of the island without wifi or data, we’ll still get you where you need to go! Shaka Guide tours never expire — use them more than once or break them up into multiple days.
