About us

Kalimera! Welcome to Magda and Marek’s!

Crete Your Life is our virtual Cretan space. We want your experience to be warm, sunny, colorful, interesting, and delicious. Just like in Crete.

We’ve been coming to Crete every year since 1997 to wander, explore, savor, and meet people. In 2018, we gave up our comfortable jobs and the safety of big-city life and moved to a small mountain village. Now it’s our home, and Crete has become an inseparable part of our lives.

Our books ‘Kreta. Wyspa, gdzie żyje się teraz’ (Crete. The island you live now’ and ‘Kreta. Wyspa wybrana‘ (Crete. The chosen island) are not just a travel guides — but a heartfelt journeys into everyday life on this extraordinary island.

Together with you we explore places beyond the usual routes, answer curious questions about Cretan traditions, and share the moments that make life here truly unforgettable.

Intimate and personalised

It’s also worth emphasising that we don’t want to become a large company employing dozens of people, utilising mass transportation, and offering standardised travel products (a set of the same few trips for everyone).

We serve small groups of tourists, each with a personalised approach. We tailor our tour routes to the fitness levels and preferences of our clients. Our offerings change depending on the season, weather, and our continued discovery of new trails.
