A successful start in Split - Hello, We were in Split for the first time. In the past, we have at some point gotten into the habit of taking a little get-to-know-you with a local guide shortly after arriving at a holiday destination that is foreign to us. Simply to get orientation and tips for further activities and restaurant stays. So for Split we have already booked such a venture from home. An important thing for us was a German-speaking guide. That's how we met Magdalena. The framework conditions, such as meeting point and time, were known to us through Tripadvisor. Nevertheless, Magdalena contacted us via WhatsApp in a timely manner and thus already introduced herself once by name, as well as confirmed the undertaking once again. I had approved sharing my phone number in Tripadvisor. Through the contact by intelligence it was also easy for us to locate Magdalena among the quite a few people at the meeting point. I had written her a rough description of our clothes and she did the same. So the start was successful before and not overshadowed by e.g. eternal searching. Magdalena was very punctual and open-hearted. So the first contact was not unhinged and very pleasant. The three of us hit it off right away. By the way, the tour was purely a private tour, just for my wife and me. In our view, the additional costs more than make up for the increased individuality and information. Magdalena is Croatian by birth, but knew the German language well. An understanding was possible at any time. She guided us through the old town of Split after a short introduction and we received, as hoped, very individual tips and insights. You could tell that Magdalene was local and safe in the given information. Since there were only three of us, the get-to-know-you trip went like a walk among friends, with casual conversations and laughter. And Magdalene was prepared: In addition to the general information about Split and its history, which she gave us in the conversations, she had summarized some information in the form of a text file on the mobile phone, which she sent us. For example, we did not have to remember the names of the recommended food and restaurants or the beach we should like to visit. Further Magdalena offered her help if we needed advice in the course of the stay. I actually had to accept this offer a day later when I realized that I had forgotten the charging cable for our camera. After describing our Malheur to her via WhatsApp, Magdalena responded promptly, sending the names, locations and accessibility of two stores, depending on the location of our hotel, where I could purchase the item I was looking for. In summary, this was a successful venture with the hoped-for content and a sympathetic guide. A clear recommendation on our part.

An excellent way to get to know the city - Really interesting & informative walking tour with Alexandra who was the perfect guide! History, politics, religion, game of thrones and football all featured in her stories and the pace was exactly right for such an incredibly hot evening! Very glad we didn’t do it at midday though. She also gave us excellent inside information on where to find the best restaurants at reasonable prices.

Unmissable - The truth is that it was the whole tour a great experience facilitated by Maya, which made us feel at home and at all times with an attitude of pleasing, of offering us clues to take the best photos, of collaborating to even take us photos for the memory, of providing us with advice on various issues for the rest of our stay, and of course telling us a lot of things about the history of this beautiful city. We were in the family, my children are young adults, not teenagers Thank you Maya!
