Kauai
As the audio guides play commentary based on your gps location, you can create your own itinerary along the tour route(s) to match your interests and schedule. Or you can use our trip planners for our suggestions on half, full or multi day itineraries. Some of the many highlights are listed below;
Ha'ena State Park
Ha'ena State Park is essentially the end of the road as you drive around the north shore of Kauai. The three most popular things to see and do at the end of the Kuhio Highway is to visit Ke'e Beach, or Tunnels Beach which is also called Ha'ena Beach Park, and to walk the Kalalau Trail. This is also the trailhead for overnight hikers and campers heading to the Na Pali Coast. Due to the extremely limited parking availability, you must either reserve a parking space or use the shuttle service to access the park.

enjoyable and informative definitely enhanced the travel experience However— each time we stopped the car to see a vista site… we needed to reboot the program to resume the narrative

It gave us the opportunity to see the entire island at our own pace. The narrator was very knowledgeable about the island and various stops.

Fantastic tour. There was so much to learn and see. You can go completely at your own pace and do as much or as little as you like. Very easy to follow directions and it uses your phones GPS, so it knows which road you are on. 100% recommend it for anyone wanting to do some site seeing without booking a tour guide.

This was a great audio tour. If you haven’t ever done one, they are a great way to see the sites at your own speed. We were never surprised by the sites we visted and the audio host told us so much about the history of Kauai and Hawaii as we drove the suggested routes.
