Beautiful hoodoos! Very unusual scenery.
I had never used a self guided tour. I thought it was a little awkward. The information provided was helpful. I hadn't turned it on at the beginning & I think we missed some things.
Aloha! Mahalo for giving Shaka Guide a try for your first self-guided tour. It can feel a little different at first, but we’re happy to hear the info was helpful along the way. For next time, we recommend starting the tour at the very beginning point so you don’t miss any stops or stories.
