Booking and running your trip on the ground

A trip built around you,
with a personal guide in your own app

Planning it yourself means everyone tells you something different

You don't need another list.
You need someone who actually lives there.

It's the difference between a trip you forget in a month and one you talk about for years: a route built from real life in the place, drivers I know by name, and someone who answers when plans change.

How it works

Planning, booking and support, every trip A complete itinerary around your pace and style, ready within a week Then I book it on the ground: drivers, hotels, cruises and tickets, through suppliers I've worked with for years.

Your personal guide, in an app made just for you

Picture this: you arrive at a famous site, there are crowds everywhere, and you're not quite sure why. You open the app, hit play, and a minute later you know the story of the place. Suddenly it clicks, and you remember it. If you like details, they're there too: hours, prices, how to get there.

A quick look at the app, from a real trip.

🗓️

Every day, right in front of you

What's on today, when your driver picks you up, what's tomorrow. Nothing to search for, nothing to remember.

🎧

A story for every place

Every site, neighborhood and restaurant on your route has a short story I wrote for you. Hit play and listen.

🎫

All your tickets in one place

Flights, vouchers, visas and confirmations. In the app, not buried in email.

The Flexible Route: travel free,
without giving up drivers you can trust

Fell in love with Hoi An and want one more night? Done with Sapa a day early? On the Flexible Route that's completely fine. I build the route, you decide as you go: an "experience bank" for every city you can book from even the day before, and a "ride bank" with my drivers that keeps your city-to-city rides ready for whatever date you pick. 72 hours' notice, and the driver is there.

The freedom of independent travel, with the safety net of an organized one.

I want the Flexible Route

What travelers say about me

A few real messages, exactly as they were sent to me.

The route is ready. Now I book it on the ground.

Private drivers, hotels, cruises, trains and tickets, through suppliers I've worked with for years and at rates you won't get on your own. You approve, I book, and everything waits for you in the app. And if something changes along the way, I'm the one who handles it, not you.

How it works

1

Tell me about your trip

A short questionnaire: who's traveling, when, at what pace, and what matters most to you on this trip.

2

Your itinerary gets built

Within a week you have a full day-by-day itinerary, built from what I know on the ground.

3

We refine it together

You review, we adjust, and we keep going until every day feels right.

4

Book, load, fly

I book everything with the suppliers, it all loads into your app, and all you have to do is pack.

The person planning your trip

Hi, I'm Maya. A digital nomad since 2022, living for months at a time in every destination I plan trips to.

The recommendations come from actually living somewhere long enough to know which street food stall the locals line up for, and which "must-see attraction" is actually a tourist trap.

All of that goes into the plan built for you, and into the app that carries it with you.

So even a short trip can feel like it was planned with years of on-the-ground experience behind it.

Why not just build it with AI?

What you'll feel from day one

⏰

No wasted time

Your days are built to flow, no backtracking, no wondering what to do first.

💰

No wasted money

Every recommendation is something I'd actually spend my own money on.

🧘

Zero planning stress

The research is handled, so you can focus on getting excited.

🏠

Real local culture

The places locals actually go, not the ones built for tour buses.

🎯

Confidence to explore

You arrive knowing your trip is solid, with no "what if" anxiety.

📱

Everything in one place

Your entire trip organized in the MDJ app, ready before you land.

What does it cost?

One price for everything except international flights: the planning, hotels, private drivers, cruises, tickets, domestic flights, and my support for the whole trip.

From my experience, per person per day, by hotel level. Prices are for a couple.

★★★★
4-star
$160to$200
per person per day
Good hotels, well located, with a pool in most destinations.
★★★★★
5-star premium
$250to$300
per person per day
The best resorts and cruises in each destination, villas with a private pool.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
Family or friends? The price per person per day drops as the group grows. Driver, car and guide are shared by more people, and so are most non-hotel costs.

What decides where you land in the range

🗓️SeasonPeak season means pricier hotels and cruises. On Vietnamese holidays the whole country travels.
🏨Hotel levelThe biggest difference in price. Small boutique or big chain, both work at every level.
🚐PaceEvery change of hotel is a drive and a driver. Fewer moves, lower cost, more trip.
🧭Private vs. small groupsA private driver all the way, or a mix of small-group day tours and transfers. Both are good, the price differs.
👥Group sizeA couple sits at the top of the range. A family or friends sharing a car and driver, at the bottom.
📱Add-onsApp and digital map $200. Smart glasses: up to a week $400, up to two weeks $600. Flexible Route +$300.

Initial itinerary and price
Within a few days: the route, recommended hotels, and an exact all-in price for your dates.
3
30% deposit
Unlocks the detailed day-by-day itinerary, with times, restaurants and my notes, plus the app.
4
30% at booking, balance 30 days before
I book with my suppliers, and you get a confirmation for every booking.
5
You fly
It all loads into your app, and I'm with you 24/7 for the whole trip.

Cancellations, and when the world goes sideways

Fixed cancellation fee$100 per person, non-refundable.
Drivers, tours, cruises and ticketsFull refund up to 7 days before arrival. Less than that, no refund.
Hotels and domestic flightsStrictly per the hotel's and airline's own terms. Domestic flights in Vietnam are non-refundable.
War, closed skies, postponingMost of my suppliers allow flexibility up to a month before arrival, per each supplier's terms. Last round we didn't cancel, we postponed: bookings were moved to new dates, even inside that final month, and we set new dates as soon as we could. My suppliers know the Israeli reality, and I fight for your money with every hotel and supplier.

Ready? The questionnaire takes a few minutes, and the initial itinerary arrives within days.

Already have an itinerary?

Built it yourself, with friends, or with AI? Great. I check that it actually works on the ground, book everything through my suppliers, and stay with you for the whole trip. Same price per person per day, same terms.
