TOUR GUIDE FOR SCENIC DRIVES ON KAUAI

If you like driving yourself when you go sightseeing, GyPSy Guide™ tour apps allow you to enjoy a guided tour experience while remaining totally independent. By driving yourself, you'll be able to get from place to place faster, see more things and not be tied to anyone else's schedule.

DON'T MISS OUT ON THE BEST SIGHTS AND STORIES

The tour apps use your device’s location abilities to play the commentary AUTOMATICALLY. All you have to do is drive, listen and decide which places you want to stop at. Our tour guides have created an insightful and entertaining tour of Kauai. We’ll recommend the best places to experience and some great locations that most visitors will drive by.

PLAYS AUTOMATICALLY

GyPSy Guide knows where you are and which direction you are heading, and plays commentary automatically about the things you are seeing, plus stories and tips and advice.

EXPLORE LIKE A LOCAL

It’s just like having a local friend to show you around. And that friend just happens to be a professional tour guide.

GREAT VALUE

The same information you would get on a bus tour or from a guide book, for just a fraction of the price. And you control the itinerary and schedule.

WORKS OFFLINE

No data, cellular or even wireless network connection needed while touring. Download over Wi-Fi before you tour.  Anyone can use them with no need for roaming data – even visiting from another country. 

DRIVING TOUR ROUTE

The tour has commentary everywhere on the island that you will want to explore.  We recommend dividing the island into at least 2 driving days.

1)  North and Eastern Kauai.  This half of the island tours through the famous northern beach and resort areas of Hanalei and Princeville.  The tour continues all the way to the end of the road at Ke’e Beach.  Between Princeville and Lihue we’ll explore many fine beaches and the vibrant town of Kapa’a. 

2)  South and Western Kauai.  The resort area of Poipu is home to south shore's best beaches and the island’s most famous blowhole.  Drive further for the artsy town of Hanapepe.  From historic Waimea, we travel up Kauai’s volcanic mountains to the superb Waimea Canyon and continue to the awe-inspiring viewpoints of Koke’e Park perched above the Na Pali Cost.

There’s much more to see as we drive and GyPSy will be you very own tour guide all the way.


NOTES

Download the app on Wi-Fi from your network at home or use any free Wi-Fi network. Because the app is filled with audio commentary and maps, its larger than "normal" apps.  Many phone/data networks may block the download because of size - so its important to download over a Wi-Fi network.  

++  Continued use of GPS running in the background increases battery usage - we strongly recommend taking a cigarette style DC outlet car charger. This is much better than simply plugging into the USB port in a vehicle.

** iPad users - please note that WiFi-only iPads will not activate the commentary automatically. Any iPhone or network-capable iPad (WiFi + Cellular - whether you have a network connection or not) will work just fine.
