    It has terrible! We drove around Honolulu trying to find the starting point, got so frustrated after an hour, that we gave up! There was no clear, concise instructions on how to use it! I want a refund!

    Windy roads. We saw lots of wild life and enjoyed the narration. There is not more to say. It was nice to get out and enjoy the sites

    The guide is linked to Google Maps, so that the information always comes at the right time and it is extremely easy to use. In addition to great tips on sights that are not in every book, you also learn about history and "insider tips" on restaurants or shopping opportunities. The routes can be adapted to suit your personal taste, as you can shorten or skip points, or extend them if you are particularly interested. The routes can also be easily interrupted and continued on another day, for example. In addition to the pleasant voice of the speaker, there is no lack of humor or information. There are even special warnings about dangers, such as not driving on some winding roads in the dark, etc. Even though the guide is unfortunately only available in English, thanks to the clear pronunciation, even non-English speakers can understand it. We were able to marvel at many beautiful places and expand our knowledge in an amusing way, which we would certainly not have seen otherwise. We definitely recommend buying it.
