Awesome! - Had an excellent time with this self guided tour. You can opt in or out of various recommended stops or hikes and it will automatically guide you along. Lots of excellent stories and narration along the way.

What a great app to assist you on your journey - We hired a car to travel to the canyon and to be honest having the turn by turn app was just what we needed. Having the history along the way really opened our eyes to how the culture of Hawaii has transformed from the past to the present and the influence of other countries.

Love the stories - We love the history and stories with the narratives. We would have missed a couple of lookouts if we did the tour on our own.

Almost 5 stars! Overall Great Experience! - The app was great, once we got it working correctly! I would have given it 5 stars instead of 4, because of one issue. The issue was that we needed to choose between 2 starting points to get us to Waimea, neither were near our location in Poipu - which is okay, but both options were 9 miles away in the opposite direction, and neither location stated which was the one closest to Waimea, based on our "home location". This is our first time on Kauai so we had no idea of our bearings. Because of this we drove all the way from Poipu to Lihue looking for our "start point" when we should have been instructed to choose the other start point based on GPS of our location in Poipu. After some frustration we eventually figured it out, and once we did the tour worked beautifully! The narration was fun, and the start and stop points along the route were really accurate! We would have driven by many of the stop points had we not used this app. Overall the day ended up being really positive and I would use this app again for other locations now that I understand how it works!

We didn't find it easy to follow initially, because the commentary was out of sync with your location on the route. However once we realised this we were able to find the landmarks being introduced. The commentary was interesting and the route easy to drive, although a little twisty in places. The canyon itself was spectacular! We were glad we opted for this app financially too, because although we had to hire a car we still saved about £70 compared to our organised tour.
