Italy

This experience walks the edge between history and imagination, following Dante Alighieri through a city that burned long before he cast it into verse. Florence in the Middle Ages was already a theatre of violence, plague, betrayals, and power struggles — Dante saw it all and made it eternal.

You’ll stop at the Duomo, where his best-known portrait still watches over the city, and the Battistero, the only church unchanged since his time. In Sant’Ambrogio, the memory of a children’s cemetery lingers, echoing the invention of Limbo. The alleys of his political quarter speak of exile and vendetta, while the Lungarni still carry the weight of lives and sins he condemned in poetry.

Each step brings you closer to the real city that became a blueprint for the Inferno — not a metaphor, but a mirror. Dante didn’t imagine hell. He lived in it. And in shaping it, he sealed Florence into the afterlife.

What sets this experience apart is its focus on the figure who shaped Italian literature and profoundly influenced how Florence is seen and remembered across the centuries. Dante Alighieri — known in Italy as il Sommo Poeta, the Supreme Poet — turned a city torn by plague, violence, and political strife into the timeless landscape of his Divine Comedy. This walk brings those verses back to the streets that inspired them, revealing a Florence both real and imagined.

You’ll follow a path through places tied to Dante’s life and fears, guided as much by literature as by history. The experience uncovers a lesser-known Florence — its medieval core, its lost cemeteries, its riverside scenes  — through lines that still burn with meaning.

Guido, a licensed guide with deep roots in Tuscany, brings rare insight to the experience. With care and precision, he weaves Dante’s world into the very streets of the city, making each stop resonate with both cultural depth and human intensity.

Walking Tour in Florence exploring Dante’s medieval Florence, his life, and the Inferno inspiration.

Walking into Dante’s Inferno

Full guidance.

A gelato break along the way.

You’ll meet Guido in Piazza dei Cerchi. He’ll wear a red t-shirt to be easily spotted, echoing Dante’s iconic red robe.

Guido Scattola is a licensed guide with over six years of experience bringing Italy’s cultural heritage to life. Born in Venice and raised in Tuscany, he found in Florence a city that captured both his heart and his curiosity. Since 2018, he has led visitors through its streets, museums, and quiet corners, sharing not only the grandeur of Renaissance art and architecture but also the subtle charm of the city’s lesser-known stories.

What makes Guido’s approach unique is his ability to balance the majestic with the intimate. Whether he’s guiding you through the opulent halls of the Medici, exploring the legacy of Dante, or unveiling the traditions behind Florentine fashion, he does so with contagious enthusiasm and deep knowledge. For Guido, every detail in Florence tells a story — and his passion lies in revealing how those stories weave together into something unforgettable.

Explore Teotihuacan in a thoughtful early-morning, private tour to Mexico’s iconic pyramids. Designed for comfort and connection, this exclusive day trip from Mexico City begins with hotel pickup, coffee, and a light snack before arriving early to beat the crowds and heat.

Teotihuacan, an ancient Mesoamerican city, is one of Mexico’s most revered heritage sites. Its pyramids and ceremonial avenues still echo with the presence of the pre-Columbian civilizations who built them. You'll visit Teotihuacan’s major landmarks—including the Pyramid of the Sun, the Avenue of the Dead, and the Temple of the Feathered Serpent—on foot or with short drives between sections to reduce fatigue and maximize what you see.

Along the way, your guide, an expert in art history and archaeology, will share stories that bring the cultural site’s structures, myths, and meaning to life. After exploring the site, you’ll enjoy a relaxed Mexican brunch—tacos or quesadillas—before returning to Mexico City.

This thoughtfully curated version of the Teotihuacan experience offers a rare balance of comfort, ease, and depth. Early morning access ensures a relaxed visit without crowds, while a flexible format—combining walking and short drives—lets you explore without fatigue and make the most of your time at the site.

Teotihuacan, once the largest city in the Americas, is home to some of the most iconic structures in Mesoamerica, including the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, and the Temple of the Feathered Serpent. Its vast scale and complex history can be overwhelming, but this approach makes it both engaging and accessible. 

Led by art historians with a gift for storytelling, the tour brings the city’s mysteries into focus. You'll explore its origins, the myths surrounding its rise, theories of its decline, and the spiritual legacy that continues to inspire awe today—all delivered with clarity and insight in an intimate, conversational tone that encourages curiosity and connection.

You'll explore the Ciudadela and step inside the Temple of Quetzalcoatl—one of the most fascinating and symbolic pyramids in Teotihuacan.

Your hosts connect the dots—architecture, mythology, and the latest discoveries—to help you see this ancient city with clarity and depth. You’ll come away with a clear sense of what Teotihuacan was, why it mattered, and how it shaped the civilizations that followed.

Quetzalcoatl Temple

After a short drive, you’ll arrive at Teotihuacan’s sacred axis—home to the Pyramid of the Sun, one of the largest in the world, and the Pyramid of the Moon, perfectly aligned with the mountains behind it. You’ll walk through the Quetzalpapálotl Palace, where carved pillars and ancient murals hint at the lives of priests and rulers who once shaped this vast city.

By cutting the long walk, you get straight to Teotihuacan’s most iconic structures—refreshed and ready to take it all in. At the ceremonial core of the city, the Pyramid of the Sun rises 65 meters high, built to align with the setting sun on key dates. The Pyramid of the Moon frames the Avenue of the Dead and mirrors the sacred mountain beyond. The pyramids were engineered to align with the cosmos, and the palace still holds stories in its murals and stonework. With clear, thoughtful guidance, you'll connect architecture, myth, and meaning—no dry lectures, just real insight.

La Serenissima to Modern Milan

10-day itinerary in Italy through Venice, Bologna, Milan, a mix of culture, cuisine, scenic beauty.

United States

In Kyoto, time slows down but never stands still. Over three days, this journey weaves together the city’s delicate layers — paper, stone, scent, and taste — to reveal a Japan of quiet mastery and daily grace. From handmade washi to temple gardens, from incense rituals to standing bars, you’ll see how centuries of craft and contemplation still shape life today. Each day balances guided encounters with moments to wander, leaving space for reflection and discovery in your own rhythm.

DAY 1 – PAPER AND PEOPLE | Begin in the calm of the Kyoto Botanical Gardens for Washi, The Texture of Kyoto, a guided tour led by craft researcher Emilie Even. You’ll trace the journey of handmade paper from plant to page, meeting artisans whose quiet skills hold a thousand years of continuity. In the evening, shift from tradition to conviviality with The Social World of Tachinomi, a bar-hopping experience that opens Kyoto’s after-dark culture. Guided by Eric Luong, you’ll stand shoulder-to-shoulder with locals, tasting small plates and sake in the city’s most authentic tachinomi bars — a reminder that craftsmanship lives as much in the art of conversation as in the handmade.

DAY 2 – STONE AND TEA | Head west to Arashiyama for The Kyoto of Small Things, a meditative cultural walk with Edgin Ticzon. Amid moss temples, folk sculptures, and family craft shops, you’ll feel Kyoto’s humility and humor, where beauty is found in imperfection and the stories of everyday life. In the late afternoon, join Eric Luong again for Zen & the Art of Tea in Kyoto, an encounter that begins at the Jotenkaku Museum and continues to a machiya townhouse for a private tea ceremony. Through art, ritual, and conversation, you’ll glimpse the profound simplicity at the heart of Zen.

DAY 3 – SCENT AND FLAVOR | Your final day explores the sensory traditions that define Kyoto’s refinement. Begin with Dashi: Japan’s Hidden Elixir led by Chef Toshihiko Yamamoto, a cooking experience revealing the delicate broth that anchors Japanese cuisine. In his intimate kitchen, you’ll prepare and taste your own dashi, discovering how one essence can hold centuries of culinary philosophy. In the afternoon, continue with The Kyoto Way of Kōdō & Chadō guided by Ayumi Ikushima — a dialogue between scent and tea, where incense, aroma, and taste merge into a single art form. It’s a graceful conclusion to Kyoto: a city that speaks softly through its senses.

WHERE TO STAY IN KYOTO | Stay in Higashiyama if you want to walk between temples and teahouses, wrapped in Kyoto’s historical calm. Choose Downtown or Kawaramachi for easy dining and transport connections after evening tours. For slower mornings and garden views, Arashiyama offers serenity at the city’s edge — a place where the rhythm of Kyoto still feels timeless.

Then the mountains take over with horseback trails at sunset, fireside asado, wine in the thin air, and time with artisans who keep tradition in their hands.
DAY 1 – ARRIVAL, MATE, MILONGA | Arrive early or the day before so the city can settle around you. In the afternoon, a guided tasting introduces the ritual of mate with a local host, including high-quality blends and traditional biscuits that frame the story and etiquette.

DAY 4 – LA BOCA AND SAN TELMO | A guided photography tour leads you through La Boca’s color and San Telmo’s market streets at an unhurried pace. Your photographer helps with timing and composition so scenes and stories fall into place, whether you carry a camera or a phone.

DAY 5 – ANDES SUNSET RIDE | Keep the day open until the mountains call. In the late afternoon you are collected in Mendoza city for a guided horseback ride with gauchos, timed to the soft light of sunset. Afterward, gather by the bonfire for an asado with salads, fresh bread, and local wine, often set to live guitar. Return to town with stars above and woodsmoke on your clothes.
DAY 6 – HIGH-ALTITUDE ASADO DAY TRIP | Set out on a guided full-day trip into the Andes with a stop for local treats and mate before a scenic viewpoint over the Uspallata valley. Continue to a high-altitude estancia for an open-fire asado paired with wines and stories about the ritual’s meaning. There is time to taste, to learn, and to take photographs with guidance from your host. Expect a generous day before the easy descent back to Mendoza.
DAY 7 – ARTISANS OF MENDOZA | Spend the morning on a guided visit focused on handmade work at Mendoza’s artisan market, meeting makers of gaucho leather, textiles, and fine crafts. Your guide helps with context and conversation, and may include a short stop at city boutiques for additional pieces. Choose something meaningful to carry home. Fly back to Buenos Aires in the afternoon for a final night or connect onward if timing allows.
WHERE TO STAY IN BUENOS AIRES AND MENDOZA | In Buenos Aires, Palermo suits walkers who want cafés, galleries, and late meals nearby. Recoleta feels elegant and central, good for quieter nights and classic architecture. San Telmo places you near markets and milongas with a short ride to the center. In Mendoza, stay in the City Center for easy departures and lively evenings, or choose Chacras de Coria and Luján de Cuyo for vineyard air and slower mornings.

Icons to Stage in Buenos Aires

This 7-day itinerary through Portugal’s western Algarve invites you to experience the region through the lens of João Ministro—Fernwayer experience-maker, expert in responsible tourism and regional development, and a lifelong student of the land. 
You'll begin in Faro, then move inland through Loulé, São Brás de Alportel, and Alte, before curving west toward Lagos, Monchique, Silves, and Olhão. This is a route shaped by local knowledge, seasonal rhythms, and hands-on experience. Along the way, you’ll meet the people who carry the Algarve’s quieter heritage: cork workers, carob farmers, weavers, bakers, and storytellers. You’ll walk the terraced hills of Monchique, visit regional markets, and take part in craft workshops that preserve time-honored techniques. At every turn, you’ll find sensory connections—fresh herbs, grilled sardines, almond cakes—woven into daily life. João sees this kind of travel as essential to understanding the Algarve. 
For most visitors, the Algarve conjures images of beaches and seafood. But João’s Algarve is more textured—what he calls the “poetic Algarve.” He cites writers like Sofia de Melo Breyner Andresen and José Saramago, who captured the soul of the region in images of sunsets, fruit, wind, and silence. For João, the true essence of the Algarve lies in its sensory landscape and the stories attached to it.
“In my youth,” he recalls, “many people came here, to the Algarve, and my family—like many others—had small farms. I spent a lot of time working on these farms growing carob, figs, almonds, and olives.” These daily rituals shaped his relationship to the land. “Everybody knows the Algarve for its oranges,” he adds, 
remembering his family’s orchard. “I have good memories of my mother and my sister making lots of cakes—almond cakes, and sometimes orange cakes too.”
What João wants travelers to experience is that same connection: the gestures and flavors that tie people to place. “We still recognize these things—the tradition of fishing, the dry fruits, the rituals of picking and preparing. This is what I want travelers to connect with.”
Still, he knows it's not always simple. “The Algarve is quite diverse. It’s not just one story. A good connection to the people here is important. Travelers are interested in how we live, how we spend the day, what we do.” This itinerary is João’s answer to that challenge: an immersive route where nature, food, craft, and memory guide the pace.

West Algarve: Wild & Crafted

7-day Algarve itinerary of craft, land, cuisine, tradition in Loulé, Alte, Lagos, Monchique, Olhão.

Athens is a place where ancient history and everyday life meet at every corner. From marble ruins to modern murals, the city is layered with memory, myth, and movement. This three-day itinerary invites you to experience Athens not as a checklist of monuments, but as a living conversation between past and present. Through guided encounters, sensory discoveries, and sacred pauses, each day opens a different door to the city’s many lives.

DAY 1 – HISTORY IN GRAFFITI AND STONE | Begin in Kerameikos, Gazi, and Psyrri, where the streets pulse with creativity and protest. The Urban Canvas of Athens takes you through layers of mural, message, and meaning, ending with a hands-on workshop and a piece of your own to carry home. Then head to the National Museum of Contemporary Art to explore bold works that question the narratives of history. End the day at the Acropolis, but from a different angle: walking the lesser-seen paths of the hill that shaped the Western world. As the sun sets, dine at Point A with the Parthenon glowing above.

DAY 2 – MEALS, HILLS, AND MOONLIGHT | Start your morning at the Varvakeios Market for a cooking class with a Greek local, learning to craft gyros and taste your way through spices, olives, and cheese. After lunch, wander through the hidden village of Anafiotika and climb Filopappou Hill for sweeping views of the city. Let the evening unfold with Under the Athenian Sky, an open-air cinema experience filled with conversation, food, and the quiet glow of Athens by night.

DAY 3 – RITUALS AND REVERENCE | Your final day brings you into rhythm with something older. In Ilioupoli, Cultivating Gratitude offers a guided ritual rooted in Demeter’s myth, the harvest, and the practice of reflection. Later, pause in the shade of the National Garden and witness the changing of the guards at Syntagma Square. End in Piraeus with Rebetiko, Red Lights, and the echo of old sailor songs. Between bites and melodies, you’ll feel the weight of memory, celebration, and time.

This journey is not about rushing ruins. It’s a curated immersion, shaped by texture, taste, silence, and spark. You’ll leave Athens not just with photos, but with a piece of the city imprinted on your pace, your palate, and your way of seeing. Three days in Athens. One city. Countless echoes.

WHERE TO STAY IN ATHENS | When it comes to where to stay, Athens offers neighborhoods for every travel style. Plaka is charming and close to ancient sites, while Psyrri and Exarchia are full of life, street art, and cafés. For a quieter stay with Acropolis views, Koukaki is a great base. And if you’re looking for sea breeze and space, consider Piraeus for a local feel near the coast. Choose what fits your rhythm.
