User reviews
Overall, a pretty decent value, but there are sections that need to be updated as the there were a few things along one of the routes that were not there anymore, specifically some caves that had a visitor center located nearby. It appears someone brought up that land and tore down the visitor center. However, the app worked reasonably well and since I got five tours for $30 and used three of them, it was worth it.

Brian Read, 2024-04-20Awesome app!! We stopped at many places we wouldn't have if we didn't have this app. Great stories about the areas we were in and very awesome music that really set the mood for travel. Worth the price for the tours. Will use again and again. My wife wants one for Korea but this is only for the islands. If you're traveling to the islands and are driving, this is a must have. You won't be disappointed. Much mahalos.

Joe Marshall, 2024-02-16I found this app on one of my Facebook groups and it is fabulous! I have 2 teenage boys who HATE guided tours and sitting on a tour bus all day. This app is the perfect compromise. I rented a car and picked the tours and off we went. The volcano national park tour was awesome. So informative. The guide is funny, easy to listen to and you learn a lot. Having GPS track you with turn by turn instructions makes it so easy. I loved this app so much we downloaded the Oahu one and did North Shore.
