How it works: Once you book a tour, you’ll get a text/email with instructions. Download the app (while in good wifi/signal) and use your unique password to access your tours. To begin touring, go to the Starting Point and launch the app. The audio starts automatically. Stick to the tour route & speed limit for the best experience. Please note that no one will meet you at the starting point.
Good value Purchase only one tour for the entire vehicle instead of taking the bus and paying for each person. You will see a significant saving. Connect your phone to car speakers by a wire or bluetooth. Enjoy the tour by listening together as you drive.

Private tour: You can use it in your car or rental car. No worries about groups or crowds. Start the tour app on your phone. And it will direct you step by step.

You can even do the tour over multiple days. Go at your own pace.

Interesting But Frustrating!

Carmelita_W, Oct 2022

We purchased the app on The Big Island. We started the tour near the airport upon arriving but the tour took us in the opposite direction of our hotel. The info provided on the tour is very interesting (which is why we gave it the three star rating.) So, after about an hour, we turned around to head toward our hotel but the app did not provide us with the tour information since we weren’t going in the direction indicated. Unfortunately, the tours have specific starting points which are inflexible. When you turn on the app, it will ask if you want directions to the starting point, which is great…unless the starting point is an hour and twenty minutes away. We were unable to turn on the app, wherever we were, and start the tour from that point. We’re planning to try again when we’re on Maui, hoping the starting points are near our hotel.

Thank you so much for your feedback, Carmeli! I'm glad you enjoyed the stories and your trip to Hawaii. I believe you did not read our description, in which we clearly stated that we provide a specific starting point from which to begin your tour. I also have 100 other self-guided tours for other parks, scenic drives, cities, and historic sites in the United States — hopefully you'll get a chance to try them the next time you visit! Also, as a reminder, the tour you purchased is valid for a lifetime. As a result, you can listen to it at home or during your next visit.

Great

Perfect. And so much cheaper than a guided tour. We only made it to 1/2 way before turning around. Motion sickness took us down.

Response from Host, Mar 2022

Thanks so much for the feedback! I’m so sorry to hear about the motion sickness but I’m glad that this tour at least gave you the flexibility to stop and start as needed! You also still have access to the tour (it’s valid forever) and can take it again anytime. You can also manually listen to the second half of the tour if you prefer. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!

I’ve been on many tours...

Shantell_D, Feb 2022

I’ve been on many tours all over the world and this has to be the most memorable because of the service. The bus was clean, had rest room and outlets for charging phones. Mr Patrick the tour guide was exceptional. So friendly and always willing to assist.

Response from Host, Sept 2022

I hope my Hawaiian tours helped your learning and that you liked them. I also have 100 more self-guided tours for various parks, scenic drives, cities, and historic places in the United States – perhaps you'll have a chance to experience them the next time you visit! Also, as a reminder, the tour you purchased is valid for a lifetime. As a result, you may listen to it at home or at your next visit.
