Hello and welcome (Bok i dobro došli) to beautiful Dalmatia, the stunning region of Croatia! My name is Irena, and I am delighted to be your guide. I was born and raised in the charming town of Šibenik (SHēˈbenik), nestled between Split and Zadar, where I've spent most of my life. As a private guide since 2007, I bring years of experience and a passion for sharing the wonders of our region. In addition to my native Croatian, I am fluent in English and German. My diverse experiences, including working in Switzerland for five years and on an American cruise ship (RCCL) for nine years, have enabled me to connect with people from various cultures, traditions, and religions. These experiences have taught me how to adapt my approach to ensure an enriching experience for everyone I meet. I truly enjoy engaging with people, continuously learning, and making new friends along the way. I am thrilled that you have chosen to explore this side of the Adriatic Sea, with its rich natural beauty and cultural heritage. Croatia is indeed a beautiful country, and it would be my pleasure to introduce you to its history, culture, traditions, customs, and many other wonders. For visitors arriving on cruise ships, I offer my services in the ports of Šibenik, Vodice, and Primošten. My main working area is the town of Šibenik and Krka National Park. My goals are to provide you with the most memorable experience possible, help you discover breathtaking moments that will be cherished for a lifetime, and ensure that you feel like you've truly experienced something special. I invite you to choose one of my tours listed below. If my offer doesn't suit your needs or interests, please let me know so that I can create a customized tour just for you. I look forward to meeting you and spending an unforgettable time together. Hopefully, I will become your new friend and not just another guide.

This oldest native Croatian city on the Adriatic is located in the most protected natural harbour, in the centre of the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. This is probably in the same place where some of the original Croatian settlers first saw the blue sea. Sibenik's narrow winding streets, stony houses, many staircases and the remains of the city walls give it a romantic Mediterranean atmosphere. The St. Jacob's Cathedral is the most famous building in Sibenik. It was constructed over a period of a century, and is testimony to the determination, sacrifice and belief of the generations of inhabitants of Sibenik. By many things it is unique not only in Croatian architecture but in European architecture as well. It is entirely built of stone, no other material was used. It is unique in its brave structure of stone slabs and ribs, with no binding material; it is also unique among renaissance churches in its trefoil front facade; finally, it is unique in the harmony of its architecture.
