★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 325 reviews · 2 to 3 hours (approx.)

Explore Newport’s mansions, Ocean Drive, forts, and Gilded Age stories at your own pace with this affordable GPS audio tour.

“It was enjoyable and interesting. It was neat the way it knew where you were and which story to read. There were a couple of times that it talked too long and told you to turn either AT the turn or just after so you missed your turn and had to circle around and find your way back to the route. That was frustrating and would be way worse if it were busier time of year.”

Review of Shaka Guide Maui’s Road to Hana audio tour, with GPS directions, waterfall stops, costs, app tips, and honest advice.

“We had difficulty following the directions to the starting point (we tried several times), but then just decided to start the tour anyway at the first highlight, and it went smoothly after that, as long as we didn't make a wrong turn. Great information and tips along the way. The narrow, twisting roads and one-way bridges were a challenge, however, and the directions to pull off the road to see a special view were sometimes impossible with so many people parking in places that made driving dangerous.
