Nice way to see the island and learn about the history
Gregory did a great job of touring us around the island and explaining the sites. Enjoyed the donut and lunch stop at local establishments. His knowledge of the history of each beach and what makes each site unique made the trip very memorable. He had a great horticultural background as well.

Oahu Grand Circle Island Self-Guided GPS Audio Driving Tour

Worth your money!
I really enjoyed using Shaka Guide Oahu audio tour. My mom, son, and I drove around to explore the island. You are in the comfort of your own car, with people that you love. This is a great affordable alternative than using a tour guide and being crammed into a bus full of strangers. The audio tour is self paced, and the guide gives detailed directions before you come across a historical landmark. It gives you fun facts in between and Hawaiian music plays in the background. We stayed in Waikiki and started super early which was not the best idea. My suggestion is to leave around 8-9 am, so by the time you are getting to small businesses, they will be open. We were not able to check out certain spots due to them being closed. I will definitely be using Shaka Guide for my other road trips in the future.

Great tour for exploring on your own
This was our first time using Shaka Guide and we loved it. It was so useful while we were driving around Oahu. Hearing the history of the places and then being able to stop and explore them was great. The GPS only hiccup'd once, but it fixed itself pretty quickly. We have used Shaka Guide for a few other places since this trip. Definitely worth it if you are planning on driving the island at your own pace instead of going on a tour.

I participated in a guided tour in Japanese. I learned a lot from the knowledge of our guide MOKO. When you have commentary in Japanese, it looks completely different from watching it on your own. I'm really glad I took part. Currently, we only offer Japanese language guides once a week, but we would like to see more of them.

Start anywhere on the route.
We only used part of the experience because we were short on time, however, it was very helpful and informative. It knows where you are, so you don't have to tell it where to start if you are not using the entire route. The directions were spot on and easy to follow.

Dole Plantation, Ko Hana Rum and 3 Zipline Adventure Tour

Sergei for the win 🏆
The highlight of the tour was our guide/driver, Sergei!!! He is a history teacher, has lived on the island almost all his life, and he is so knowledgeable about the history of Hawaii. It was such a pleasure to spend time listening about the history and culture of the beautiful islands of Hawaii. I had never been to the Dole Plantation, so that was a fun little stop to get some Dole Whip. I would have enjoyed having a little more time at this stop to ride the Pineapple Express Train. The next stop was the rum distillery. Everyone seemed to enjoy the tasting, and they have a really cute gift shop to purchase rum, chocolate, shirts, glasses, etc. The last stop was the zipline. This was a fun little activity, and we lucked out with some great weather around 5:30pm. Overall, this tour has something for everyone. Oh, and the communication when I initially booked the tour up until the day before was excellent. Thank you to Ashley for making me feel comfortable about the pick up spot and time. (Sergei was right on time as well for the pickup) I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends, but I would make sure they ask for Sergei!
