My Story

I created Guide My Getaway out of a lifelong love for traveling and exploring new places. For me, there’s nothing quite like arriving in a new city, stepping out into streets you’ve never walked before, breathing in the atmosphere, and feeling that spark of excitement as you discover what makes it unique.

Over the years, I’ve explored cities all across Europe and beyond, sometimes for a weekend, sometimes for longer, and I’ve come to realize that the magic of travel often lies in the balance between the big and the small. It’s the awe of standing before an iconic landmark, but also the joy of finding a quiet café where the locals go. It’s wandering without a plan and stumbling upon something unforgettable.

Guide My Getaway is my way of sharing those experiences. It’s not just another travel website, it’s a curated collection built from real journeys, thoughtful recommendations, and countless hours of exploring. Every guide is written with care to help you find the best of a city, whether you’re after a romantic escape, a quick weekend trip, or a longer adventure that still feels effortless to plan.

What makes this site special is that it’s born from passion, not just research. These are the places I’ve loved, the moments that stayed with me, and the tips I wish I’d known before I went. It’s about making your getaway memorable, whether that means sipping wine with a view, getting lost in historic streets, or finding that hidden corner that makes you feel like the city is yours alone.

At Guide My Getaway, I believe travel should feel inspiring, but never overwhelming. It’s about more than where you go, it’s about how you experience it. And I hope the guides here help you create not just trips, but stories you’ll want to tell again and again.
