The Royal Collections is one of Madrid’s most overlooked museums. Housed in a striking modern building integrated into the Royal Palace complex, it offers a breathtaking journey through Spain’s artistic and historical legacy.

You'll begin with a tour of the exterior of the majestic Royal Palace — an opportunity to learn about the relationship between the Spanish monarchy and the Royal Collections. Then you’ll head into the museum, where you’ll discover the richness of Spain’s past through a vivid exploration of centuries of power, art, and tradition. You’ll experience the Collections in an intimate, thoughtfully guided way.

The collection is vast and exquisite, showcasing masterpieces, royal artifacts, and remarkable works that illuminate centuries of heritage. You will discover masterpieces by Velázquez, Goya, Caravaggio, and El Greco, alongside royal tapestries, antiques, and more. Each one of these objects tells a story about Spain's nobility, faith, and art. 

Jaime has extensive knowledge of the collection and royal history. He’ll curate your visit, ensuring you see the most exceptional pieces, and will bring the collection to life by revealing its cultural context. You’ll also have a chance to get to know each other over a drink and a tapa.

One of the newest additions to Madrid’s cultural landscape, this museum remains largely uncrowded, making it a peaceful alternative to the city’s better-known sites. It offers a rare, contemplative view into the history of the Spanish monarchy and its artistic legacy — a chance to linger and truly absorb the details.

Set beside the Royal Palace, the museum’s monumental modern design heightens the experience, its clean lines and restrained geometry in dialogue with the centuries-old grandeur next door. You’ll have the chance to step on its terraces, where the museum opens directly onto views of the Royal Palace and the gardens below — a rare perspective on Spain’s seat of power and art.

Portugal

Trace the full story arc of the Douro Valley’s wine heritage: how the region came to be one of the most significant wine landscapes in the world. 

After a scenic drive from Porto, you’ll begin at the region’s flagship museum, where interactive exhibits lay out the evolution of winemaking in the valley: from early agricultural practices, through the 1756 demarcation that formalized its boundaries, to the global rise of Port and the region’s current shift toward high-quality still wines.

You’ll then visit a prestigious estate to see firsthand how Douro winemakers are refining technique and identity in today’s climate, balancing tradition with innovation across both fortified and still wine production. Then, you’ll sit down to a private lunch at a family-run winery, where seasonal ingredients are paired with wines produced onsite. Finally, stop at a scenic viewpoint overlooking the valley before driving back to the city.

This experience is built around the Douro’s layered history. It’s a narrative arc, grounded in context. At the Douro Museum, a specialist brings historical depth to each phase of development—from terracing practices and trade logistics to regulation and export. This foundation gives meaning to the landscapes you’ll see and the wines you’ll taste later.

The visit to a top-tier estate will show how Port still defines the valley’s reputation abroad, but how still wines have become a space for creativity, climate adaptation, and terroir expression. 

Lunch at a small-scale winery brings the experience down to a human scale. You’re welcomed by producers whose work is shaped by local terrain, seasonal rhythms, and generational knowledge.

Before heading back to Porto, pause at a local miradouro once described by Portuguese poet Miguel Torga as “an excess of nature”—a final moment to take in the vast beauty of the Douro landscape.

Stand above the terraced vineyards and winding river at this literary and scenic highlight. A sacred viewpoint, praised by Miguel Torga—where nature’s geometry meets poetic reflection. 

São Leonardo de Galafura isn’t just scenic—it’s storied. The Portuguese poet Miguel Torga stood here and described the Douro as “an excess of nature.” 

Contemplate the valley from the São Leonardo de Galafura viewpoint.

Viewpoint Visit 

Midday, you’ll stop at one of the Douro’s most iconic viewpoints — for a slow lunch overlooking the valley. The meal is hosted outdoors or in the dining space, depending on season and weather, with sweeping views across vine-lined hills, river bends, and olive groves. Gather around a shared table for lunch prepared with local ingredients and paired estate wines. There's no rush. You’re in a place that belongs to the rhythm of the valley.

You'll experience the Douro through its food, wine, and engaging conversations.

The ingredients are drawn from the same soil you’ve spent the morning walking. What’s on your plate likely came from the next hill over. And the location matters.

Lunch Above the Valley

Your day ends the way it began: with a private ride in the vintage electric Kombi—this time heading back to Porto. Whether you're returning to your hotel or continuing your journey from the city, your hosts ensure a comfortable ride all the way.

This final stretch often unfolds in thoughtful quiet. As the Douro landscape slips by outside the window, it feels more familiar—shaped now by the experiences of the day: the contours of vineyard terraces, the warmth of a shared meal, the rhythm of the river, and the stories of those who call this valley home.

If the morning was about orientation, the ride back is about integration—letting the day settle in as part of your own story. The hosts remain with you until the last stop, keeping the experience personal, consistent, and grounded.

Return by Kombi

Your day begins with private pick-up in Porto, where your hosts greet you in a fully electric vintage VW Kombi—restored with care and retrofitted for quiet, low-impact travel. From the city, you’ll head inland toward the Douro Valley, easing into the landscape as the urban edge gives way to vineyard-covered hills and winding river roads.

The Kombi becomes your moving base for the day—its open windows and unhurried pace invite you to take in the scenery as you cross through villages and viewpoints en route to each stop.

Along the way, your hosts—lifelong locals with deep roots in the region—share stories, context, and orientation to help you settle into the rhythm of the Douro before the day’s main experiences begin.

The Kombi is a deliberate choice for Carlos and Paulo. Quiet, fully electric, and locally restored, it reflects the balance this experience strikes between tradition and care for place. The open layout, slower pace, and flexibility allows for unplanned stops, impromptu photos, or a pause to admire the morning light over terraced hills.

This is where your connection with the hosts begins. Their relationship to the region shapes every stop that follows, and the Kombi ride allows that story to unfold naturally. 

Private pick-up from Porto to the Douro Valley in a 100% electric Kombi.

Pick up from Porto

The first stop is the Douro Museum in Peso da Régua — a cornerstone for understanding the region's identity. Housed in a restored 18th-century warehouse once used for wine storage, the museum offers a visual and tactile history of the valley's evolution as a wine-producing region.

You'll walk through exhibits on early agricultural practices, the creation of terraced vineyards, the 1756 demarcation law that defined what could be called “Douro wine,” and the rise of the Port trade. A local expert brings these pieces into focus. This will be the foundation for everything you’ll see and taste later in the day.

Most Douro wine tours start with tastings. This one starts with insight and context. The museum visit ihelps you see the landscape differently. You learn how geography, politics, and trade shaped which hills were planted, which families prospered, and how the river dictated what moved, when, and where.

This is the contextual spine of the experience, grounding the valley’s beauty in its layers of labor, law, and land. It's also an emotional journey into the region's heritage, shaped by community voices and items used over the centuries. 

From this point forward, every terraced slope, every varietal, every vineyard name means more — because you’ve seen where the story begins.

Start at the Douro Museum for a guided look at the valley’s winemaking, geography, and legacy.

Inside the Douro Museum

Here, you’ll experience a working vineyard that reflects the full range of Douro winemaking today. Still family-run after generations, the estate is known for its balanced approach to tradition and experimentation — producing both classic Ports and increasingly celebrated still wines.

You’ll walk through the vineyards and cellars, guided by someone directly involved in the work. Learn about local grape varieties, aging methods, and the impact of microclimates across the property. The tasting includes a curated lineup that reveals the estate’s depth.

This Quinta is a serious producer that opens its doors to those who care about how wine is made, not just how it tastes. The focus here is on how growing conditions, varietal blends, and cellar decisions shape what ends up in the glass.

You also see the shift happening in real time. While Port built the estate’s name, their still wines speak to where the region is going — more nuanced, more varied, more expressive of place.

Japan

In juxtaposition to the prim and proper atmosphere of traditional Kyoto are the Tachinomi, casual bars invented for the Japanese blue and white-collar crowds to let their hair down. Although historically popular in working-class areas of Osaka, tachinomi have more recently appeared around Kyoto, some with a twist of the local culture ingrained in their Osaka roots.

Your experience begins with your expert guide giving you a primer on the history and evolution of tachinomi standing bars in the Kansai area, as well as some tips on how to fit in with the locals. From there, he will take you to some of his favorite tachinomi, from rooftop cocktail bars to racous hole-in-the-wall establishments, introducing you to patrons, staff, and owners alike.

While each location you will visit is well known to your host, the content may change slightly based on weather, seasons, and other factors, designed to make your experience the most comfortable and memorable.

While tachinomi are an integral part of the local culture, they can be intimidating for overseas visitors who face cultural and language barriers to join in the fun. Your host will act as your bridge to access the world of tachinomi, introducing you to locals and staff, explaining the variety of foods and beverages, and helping you avoid any faux pas during your experience.

As you visit a variety of tachinomi throughout your evening, your host will encourage you to try a variety of local foods and have social interactions with staff and fellow patrons. Perhaps you'll come away with some new Japanese friends from your experience.

Your host, Eric. is a long-time resident of Kyoto with years of experience in the food and beverage and hospitality industries, which has given him an extensive network within the restaurant and bar industry of Kyoto. He's passionate about introducing the best qualities of Kyoto through experiences best known to local residents.

Food Tour in Kyoto: Explore tachinomi standing bars with a food expert and meet Kyoto’s bar scene.

The Social World of Tachinomi

You will visit at least three bars during this tour, selected by Eric based on seasons and weather. 

One drink and appetizer are included at each location. 

A hand towel is recommended as some toilets do not have paper towels. A bottle of water is good to hydrate yourself during the tour. 

Meet in front of Minami-za theater on Shijo street, right beside the Kamo river.

Originally from Toronto, Canada, Eric has been living in Kyoto for over 22 years. He first came to Kyoto to complete his Master’s degree in Japanese Art History and now works as a teacher and translator. Since 2022, he has been running a monthly pop-up restaurant, serving Cantonese-inspired dishes. Well connected with the art and culinary communities in Kyoto, he is eager to share more hidden aspects of this wonderful city with visitors. 

This 8 hour high-end experience takes you deep into Seville’s culture and history, all led by a cast of local historians and experts.

You’ll start with two of Seville’s most important architectural landmarks: the Alcázar and the Cathedral. You'll then slip into spaces off the tourist path, such as private areas of Seville's historic City Hall, a private palace still lived in today, and a sacred brotherhood's richly decorated chapel - a "jewel box" that is almost never seen by outsiders.

Along the way, your host will contextualize the city's Catholic, Moorish, and Jewish legacies, overlap, exchange, and transformation. You’ll walk through the old city on a route of nunneries, where you’ll taste pastries made by cloistered sisters.

The experience closes with one or two musical interludes, depending on availability: watch a flamenco artist rehearse and/or sit in on the Seville Symphony Orchestra (ROSS) rehearsal—with a brief meet-and-talk with the conductor when schedules allow.

If you have just one day in Seville and want a deep, curated view of its cultural and spiritual life, this is the tour to do. You’ll enter private spaces rarely open to visitors, from a working private palace home to sacred spaces. You’ll move through Seville’s layers of identity — Catholic brotherhoods, Muslim heritage, Jewish quarter, artistic revival — with each site offering a new perspective.

You’ll also engage directly with Seville’s living culture. The pastries of the convents, the private flamenco conversation, engagement with a classical conductor, and personal encounters make this more than an architectural or historical experience — it’s emotional, sensorial, and human. The day is designed for those who want Seville not just in snapshots, but in memory and meaning.

With private transport and expert guidance, this experience is seamless and immersive for travelers looking to understand Seville on a deeper level.

Sit down to a carefully curated Sevillian lunch that captures the flavors of Andalusia in one meal. While the set meal may differ based on seasonality, here is what a typical lunch includes: Begin with salmorejo, Seville’s iconic chilled tomato soup, served with a topping of hard-boiled egg and jamón ibérico, alongside crisp, golden croquetas. For the main course, enjoy arroz marinero, a seafood rice dish infused with the flavors of the coast. Dessert is a creamy cheesecake, balancing tradition with indulgence. One drink of your choice — beer, wine, soft drink, or water — is included.

If you have food restrictions, let Reyes know in advance when you make the booking. 

This set meal offers a snapshot of Seville’s culinary identity in a single sitting. Each dish reflects local tastes and traditions, from the refreshing simplicity of salmorejo to the depth of seafood rice. Paired with a glass of Spanish wine or beer, the menu balances heritage with conviviality — the way Sevillanos have gathered for centuries: around food, stories, and shared time at the table.

Seville lunch experience with salmorejo, jamón ibérico, croquetas, seafood rice and more.

A Sevillian Table

Continue on foot through Seville’s quieter streets. Stop at a nunnery or two, where you’ll try their handmade pastries and learn about the cloistered traditions that keep this culinary legacy alive. You’ll witness the magic of the Symphony Orchestra as they rehearse, and meet and greet its conductor - or hear a flamenco artist present a personal reflection on the art — not a show, but a storytelling performance about how flamenco shapes identity and belonging in Seville.

Rather than checking off more sites, this final stage is about texture and feeling. From convent kitchens to conversations with artists, you’ll access stories and rituals that rarely make it into guidebooks. The combination of place, voice, and flavor leaves you with a full-bodied experience of Seville’s heart and soul.

Enjoy cloistered convent pastries, a classical musical rehearsal, and a personal flamenco interlude.

Sweet Traditions & Living Art

Begin your day with guided visits to the Real Alcázar and Seville Cathedral. At the Alcázar, explore its mix of Christian and Mudéjar architecture, tracing the layering of Islamic and European aesthetics. Then enter the vast Gothic cathedral and learn about its transformation from mosque to church, including Christopher Columbus’ tomb and the Giralda tower.

Rather than rushing through, your guide will connect these two icons to the living history of Seville — from Almohad foundations to modern-day rituals. You’ll receive interpretive insight into details most visitors miss, and your ticket includes skip-the-line access and quiet time to absorb the atmosphere.

Explore Seville's most iconic landmarks — the Alcázar and the Cathedral — with expert insight.

The Royal and the Sacred

You’ll be granted rare access to normally off-limits parts of Seville’s City Hall — an important civic building rich with Renaissance detail. Next, visit a private palace still lived in today, where your host will walk you through intimate spaces layered with art, furniture, and family history. Finally, step into a brotherhood chapel closed to the public, a jewel-like space used for devotional preparation during Semana Santa.

These locations are not open to regular tourists. Each stop is made possible through local relationships and reflects a different facet of Seville’s cultural infrastructure — political, aristocratic, and spiritual. Your guide will help unpack the aesthetics and the symbolism embedded in each site.

Step into private spaces, from City Hall chambers to an active palace and secret chapel.

Along the way, you'll also meet a member of a local Catholic Brotherhood, who will elucidate the role of religion in the city, a conductor of a symphony orchestra, and a flamenco performer. Each of these local experts will bring distinct parts of Seville's culture and history to life, giving you deep cultural inights far beyond the typical tourist trail.

Chile

This full-day excursion to Laguna del Inca (Lake of the Incas) in the Cordillera de los Andes takes you to a place of mystical beauty, where you'll enjoy a 1.5-hour private boat ride across a lake formed by melting glaciers. The experience is followed by wine tasting and lunch near the lagoon.

Located 2,800 m above sea level, Laguna del Inca is an emblematic point on the Inca Trail, a sacred site dedicated to Pachamama. A part of Portillo Valley, a very scenic mountain resort, its name comes from a local legend involving Inca royalty and a lost love.

During the boat ride, you'll experience a profound sense of serenity as you connect with the energy of the Andes in an atmosphere of peace and contemplation. This activity is ideal for those seeking deep relaxation in a majestic landscape filled with history. 

Please note: In case of inclement weather, the boat ride will be replaced with a gentle hike along the shoreline. Boats do not operate from May to October when the lake is frozen.

This private boating experience at Laguna del Inca—available only from November to April, as the lagoon is frozen the rest of the year—is shaped by the lake’s mystical aura, crystal-clear glacier-fed waters, and sacred ties to Andean culture. The setting is steeped in legend: the love story of the Inca Illi Yupanqui and the princess Kora-Illé is said to have taken place here.

Floating on the lagoon, surrounded by mountains that rise above 4,000 meters, creates a sensation of deep grounding and stillness. The site lies along a section of the Qhapaq Ñan, the ancient Inca road system, and is considered a sacred point in the Andes where the energy of the mountains can be felt with each breath. 

Zachary brings deep regional and technical knowledge and a grounding presence, drawing on his expertise in Andean heritage and mountain exploration. This is a rare chance to disconnect from routine, connect with nature, and absorb the silence of the high mountains.

Argentina

This full-day experience from Mendoza takes you high into the Andes for what can only be described as the ultimate feast with the ultimate view. You'll travel through breathtaking mountain landscapes, stopping first in Potrerillos for local treats—tortitas and facturas (savory and sweet pastries)—served with mate (a caffeinated herbal beverage) or coffee. From there, the journey continues to a stunning viewpoint at the entrance of the Uspallata Valley near the Chilean border.

Next, you'll ascend to a high-altitude estancia at 2,000 meters, where a traditional Asado a la Llama awaits. This open-fire meal is paired with wines from the estancia and El Enemigo—a remarkable match. Weather permitting, you’ll dine outdoors with sweeping views; if not, the fire indoors sets a warm tone. You'll eat, toast, share stories, and soak up the quiet magic of this extraordinary place. After coffee and dessert, you'll begin the slow descent back to Mendoza—with a full belly and a full heart.

This is a special soulful day in the mountains, curated for food lovers, wine enthusiasts, and curious wanderers alike. You’ll drink, eat, laugh, and learn in equal measure while bonding with your charismatic host, Julieta, who will explain the cultural significance of the cuisine. 

Slow-cooked over an open flame and rooted in Indigenous traditions, asado a la llama is as much a social ritual as it is a meal. The hours spent around the fire, tending the meat, are filled with stories, shared over mate and wine. As you watch the fire dance, toast local wines, and connect with the people who call this remarkable place home, your senses will come alive. The tempo of this rural culinary experience is relaxed, intimate, and real. The meal honors time, place, and shared tradition.

As the icing on the cake, Julieta is also a professional photographer. She’ll help you capture high-quality images of the landscapes—souvenirs that, along with the memories, will last long after the day ends.

You will also fall into the natural rhythm of these bohemian districts and hear about the people who have shaped their development over the centuries.

The experience is designed for beginner photographers through to those with an existing knowledge of photography. It is best experienced with a DSLR or mirrorless camera however cell phones are also welcome. Tripods are not necessary although carrying a variety of lenses is a bonus.

Bernardo will guide you along La Caminito—the “Little Street” also referred to as an open-air street museum—where you will be immersed in the area’s vibrant history of tango and street art. From behind the lens, you will trace (and capture) the contrasts between these colorful tenement residences and modern structures.

Seville in Shadow and Light is a five-day journey into the city’s most enduring expressions of faith, artistry, and tradition. From the soaring vaults of its Gothic cathedral and the archives that shaped an empire to Andalusian crafts, flamenco’s living pulse, and the quiet elegance of noble palaces, each day moves deeper into Seville’s character. Guided tours and workshops are paired with flexible explorations, inviting travelers to experience the city not as a checklist but as a rhythm of devotion, creativity, and daily life.
DAY 1 – ARCHIVES AND CATHEDRALS | Begin with a guided tour of Andalusia’s sacred crafts, where devotion and artistry meet in unexpected forms. In the afternoon, visit the General Archive of the Indies before stepping into Seville Cathedral. End the day climbing the Giralda tower at your own pace for sweeping views across the city.
DAY 2 – MUSEUMS AND DANCE | Spend the morning at the Museum of Popular Arts, a Neo-Mudéjar pavilion in Maria Luisa Park that preserves Andalusian traditions in costume, craft, and design. Later, join a Sevillanas class with a dancer who introduces the rhythms and gestures of this joyful tradition.
DAY 3 – ART AND FLAMENCO STYLE | Start the day at the Museo de Bellas Artes, where Spain’s second most important art collection unfolds from Murillo to Zurbarán. In the afternoon, take part in a flamenco styling workshop in Triana, as a designer reveals how fabric, form, and movement shape this iconic art.
DAY 4 – PALACES AND ALCÁZAR | Begin with a walk through Seville’s noble residences, from the courtyards of Casa Pilatos to the halls of Palacio de las Dueñas, once home to the Duchess of Alba. After a pause, join a guided after-hours visit to the Alcázar, entering its gardens and chambers once the crowds have gone.
DAY 5 – BULLS, TRIANA, AND THE RIVER | Travel into the countryside on a day trip to a historic ranch that preserves the heritage of the toro bravo, with insights into Spain’s most emblematic animal. Back in the city, spend the afternoon wandering the streets of Triana before continuing along the Guadalquivir promenade.
WHERE TO STAY IN SEVILLE | Seville’s historic center, around the Cathedral and Santa Cruz, is ideal for travelers who want to be immersed in monuments, gardens, and winding alleys. Triana, across the river, offers a more local rhythm, with tapas bars, flamenco studios, and a neighborhood feel. Both areas are walkable and well connected, letting you choose between the intimacy of the old city and the vibrancy of daily life.

La Serenissima to Modern Milan

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

This 7-day itinerary offers a layered introduction to Catalonia, curated by Fernwayer experience-maker and collaborator Manila DiMaira. A native of Sicily and longtime resident of Barcelona, Manila blends insight with a deep curiosity. Her suggested route balances the bold energy of the city with the slower rhythm of the countryside — from Barcelona’s cultural core to the vineyards of Priorat, the wetlands of the Ebro Delta, and the historic charm of Girona.
Begin with three days in Barcelona, where Manila recommends focusing not on checklists but on rhythm: explore historic neighborhoods, check out design ateliers, sample Catalan cuisine, and seek out the quieter corners still alive with local tradition. | Head south into the wine country of Priorat, a lesser-known region with rolling hills and medieval villages. Stay in Siurana, a cliffside hamlet with sweeping views and access to local winemakers. | Continue to the Ebro Delta, one of Spain’s richest ecological regions. Here, you can bike through rice paddies, watch migratory birds, and experience a side of Catalonia rarely included in mainstream itineraries. | End in Girona, a city of ancient walls, celebrated chefs, and architectural quiet. It offers a slower, more introspective contrast to the pulse of Barcelona.
This itinerary reflects what Manila calls the “true essence of Catalonia” — a place of cultural pride, natural beauty, and distinct local identity. Manila first arrived in Barcelona more than two decades ago, while finishing her studies in Rome. She needed an internship for her thesis and chose Barcelona without expecting how quickly she’d feel at home.“Barcelona, 22 years ago, was a different place,” she says. “It was less cosmopolitan, more local. I remember wandering through narrow streets and finding tiny bars with real flamenco. It felt genuinely lived in.”
 “Tourism has definitely changed things,” she admits. “Places like La Rambla are overcrowded. Many locals have been pushed out by the rise in tourist rentals. But Catalans are proud of their traditions. They’ve started resisting these changes to preserve the city’s character.” That character is what Manila has grown to love. “I chose Barcelona because I felt an immediate connection. The Mediterranean lifestyle, the weather, the proximity to mountains and sea — it feels like home but also stretches me outside my comfort zone.” She relishes the contrast to her native Sicily. “I can take a train and be skiing in the Pyrenees in just over an hour. Where else do you get that?”
What keeps her in Barcelona is the balance of tradition and openness. “The cuisine, the olive groves, the vineyards — they remind me of southern Italy, but they’re uniquely Catalan.” And the city’s connectivity has made it easy to stay rooted while maintaining close ties to Italy. She speaks with admiration about the people: “Catalans are proud, resilient, and united. They have a strong sense of identity and community. Whether through demonstrations or cultural festivals, they come together. They’re efficient and organized, but also keep that relaxed Mediterranean vibe. It’s a unique combination.”

Catalonia: Barcelona & Beyond

7-day itinerary in Catalonia through Barcelona, Priorat, Siurana, Ebro Delta, Girona, and Cadaqués.

This 3-day Santorini itinerary invites you to experience the island slowly, through light, taste and texture. From quiet swims along the Aegean coast to hands-on Greek cooking, artisan visits, winery tours and a sunset boat trip, each day is crafted for travelers who value intention over itinerary. You’ll move between volcanic landscapes and village kitchens, caldera views and underground wine cellars, with time to pause, savor and connect. It’s a journey rooted in the senses — perfect for those drawn to authenticity, beauty and the quiet charm of the Cyclades.

DAY 1 – MONOLITHOS TO MEGALOCHORI | The first morning begins on the island’s eastern coast, where Monolithos Beach offers a quiet start beside calm waters and soft black sand. It’s a gentle stretch of coast, ideal for slowing down after arrival. By late morning, you’ll head inland to the village of Megalochori for a guided cooking class held in a cave kitchen. The afternoon unfolds in rhythm with local flavors, stories, and shared plates, all crafted by hand. As the sun fades, the caldera becomes the backdrop to a peaceful evening along the island’s edge.

DAY 2 – VLYCHADA TO THE CALDERA | Morning light casts long shadows over the sculpted cliffs of Vlychada Beach, a place known for its otherworldly rock formations and stillness. After time by the water, the late morning brings a quiet brunch with sea views before the guided experience begins. The rest of the day is a curated passage through Santorini’s villages and outlooks, led by a local expert who knows how to read the island’s moods. It all culminates on the water, with a private sunset cruise along the caldera where cliffs glow gold and the sea softens to silence.

DAY 3 – EXO GONIA TO MESARIA | The final day begins in Exo Gonia with a creative experience that blends art and landscape. You’ll visit local studios and a volcanic winery, meeting artists and winemakers whose work is rooted in the geology and stories of the island. A hands-on creative session invites you to slow down and make something of your own before the journey continues. In the late afternoon, a visit to the Santorini Wine Museum leads you underground into the history of vine-growing on this volcanic land. A quiet close to a day shaped by color and craft.

WHERE TO STAY IN SANTORINI | Fira is a convenient and dynamic base, with easy access to transport, guided experiences, and caldera views. For travelers seeking a quieter rhythm, Imerovigli offers serenity just above the sea, while Pyrgos and Exo Gonia provide a slower village atmosphere closer to the creative heart of the itinerary. Choose your stay based on how much you’d like to move — and how much you’d like to stay still.

Ruins & Mediterranean Shores

14 days in Italy exploring Rome, Naples, and Sicily through guided tours, cuisine, and coastlines.

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.

From the iconic Dubrovnik walls to the calm waters of Banje Beach, this three-day journey invites you to explore the city’s rich heritage and coastal beauty at your own pace. Walk through centuries of history, taste traditional Croatian food in atmospheric Old Town restaurants, and end your days with a golden boat ride in Dubrovnik’s shimmering bay.

DAY 1 – CITY WALLS AND FORTRESS | Begin your trip with a morning walk along Dubrovnik’s city walls. This 1.2-mile loop offers sweeping views over rooftops and sea, with countless photo moments along the way. For lunch, head to Proto Fish in the Old Town, known for its elegant terrace and fresh Adriatic seafood. In the afternoon, visit War Photo Limited, a striking gallery that documents human conflict through powerful photography. Continue to Lovrijenac Fortress, perched just outside the city walls, where stone stairs lead to panoramic views and centuries of defense history. In the evening, join a culinary walking tour led by locals. You’ll taste traditional dishes, hear family stories, and explore the city’s flavors through its oldest streets.

DAY 2 – BEACH, MOUNTAIN, AND SEA | Spend the morning at Banje Beach, just outside the Old Town gates. Swim in clear water, relax with a book, or simply take in the view of the city rising above the bay. After a midday break, make your way to Mount Srđ. Whether you hike or take the cable car, the view from the top is unforgettable, with wide horizons stretching over Dubrovnik and the coast. As the sun begins to set, step aboard a boat for a sunset cruise along the shoreline. The city glows behind you as the boat glides past islands and cliffs, closing the day on the water.

DAY 3 – MONASTIC AND BAROQUE HERITAGE | Start your day at the Franciscan and Dominican monasteries, two of Dubrovnik’s most historic sanctuaries. These calm, beautiful places are filled with carved cloisters, quiet chapels, and traces of centuries past. For lunch, walk to Konoba Kopun, a small square near the Jesuit steps where traditional Dalmatian recipes are served with care. In the afternoon, explore Dubrovnik Cathedral, a baroque landmark filled with light, then visit the Rector’s Palace, once the seat of power in the Republic of Ragusa. As your final experience, leave the city behind and visit Trsteno, a coastal village known for its historic gardens. A guided walk and picnic offer a quiet, green farewell to your time in Dubrovnik.

WHERE TO STAY IN DUBROVNIK | If you want to be in the heart of it all, stay inside the Old Town. It’s full of charm but also crowds and stairs. For more space and sea views, choose neighborhoods like Ploče or Lapad just outside the walls. Both offer easy access while giving you a peaceful place to rest.

You’ll move between Lisbon, Mafra, Ericeira, Setúbal, Évora, and Alqueva, using Lisbon as your hub for the first five days before transitioning into the open spaces of Alentejo.

When asked about his love for Lisbon, Tiago’s enthusiasm is immediate: “I love my city! I really love the historic center of Lisbon!” Though he didn’t always feel that way. Growing up on the city’s outskirts, it wasn’t until returning after time abroad that he saw it anew. “It was as a young and independent adult with an arts and architecture degree, and with the enthusiasm to explore — that I realized how beautiful, diverse, and interesting my city is.”
For Tiago, connecting with a culture means full immersion. “You have to experience it with open eyes, heart, and mind,” he says. That means talking to locals, walking unfamiliar routes, listening more than looking. “Lisbon isn’t just to be seen, but touched, smelled, and tasted.” It’s not a checklist—it’s a presence.
He also names two challenges: First, Lisbon’s historic neighborhoods are deeply distinct—each like its own mini-city. “Lisbon is multidimensional. It cannot—and should not—be rushed.” Second, mass tourism threatens the local character he cherishes. Responsible travel, he says, is essential to preserve the culture.
As tourism evolves, Tiago points toward Lisbon’s under-known strengths. “Gastronomy, street art, tiles, contemporary architecture… there’s so much more to discover!”

Lisbon and the Roads Out

7-day itinerary in Portugal exploring history & culture in Lisbon, Mafra, Ericeira, Setúbal, Évora.

This 3-day South East Sicily itinerary is beautifully balanced — it flows from almond groves to ancient theaters, olive groves to volcanic slopes.

South East Sicily holds a rare kind of richness—where golden stone meets deep flavor, and ancient landscapes echo through everyday life. This three-day itinerary is designed to move slowly and purposefully through that corner of the island, where everything feels grounded: in sun, in story, in taste.

Day one opens in the almond groves and soft trails near Noto, where agriculture and antiquity intertwine. The afternoon invites you into the town itself, where the Baroque facades of Corso Vittorio Emanuele glow in the late light. You’ll walk among church domes and curved balconies, ending the day with gelato in hand and a quiet dinner in the countryside, surrounded by olive trees and silence.

On the second day, the rhythm shifts to the coast. Ortigia, the historic heart of Siracusa, offers a morning of light-soaked streets and briny market air. You'll taste olives grown nearby and move at the pace of a place shaped by centuries. In the late afternoon, you board a boat for a sunset sail along Ortigia’s edge—water, limestone, and shifting sky. The day closes with a table at Don Camillo, where tradition is honored, not preserved.

The final day takes you higher. Mount Etna commands the horizon and the imagination. You'll walk along its slopes, where vineyards thrive in black soil and steam rises from fissures just beneath your feet. Later, the calm of Taormina welcomes you down, offering views from its ancient Greek theater that stretch from mountain to sea. Dinner in town brings the journey full circle—flavors, views, and the quiet hum of Sicilian life.

This is Sicily in layers: cultivated, storied, and elemental. A region best experienced with open time, open senses, and a willingness to let its golden rhythm set your pace.

Sicily’s Golden Corner

3-day itinerary in South East Sicily with Noto’s Baroque streets, Ortigia sailing, and Etna’s beauty

Living the Pulse of Porto means tasting its traditions, stepping inside centuries-old landmarks, and letting the Douro set the rhythm of your days. In three days you’ll move from taverns filled with petiscos to valley vineyards, riverside boat decks, and cathedral steps that have anchored the city for generations. Designed for travelers who want immersion over checklists, this journey blends guided encounters with moments of quiet discovery, letting Porto’s pulse carry you.
DAY 1 – PETISCOS AND VIEWS | Begin with a guided food tour that introduces Porto through its flavors and stories. Tasting petiscos and Port wine becomes a path through the São Bento station murals, the Dom Luís I Bridge, and corners of daily life. In the evening, climb Torre dos Clérigos, where the Baroque tower rises above the old city and the river glimmers below. The day closes over dinner in the heart of Porto, where the atmosphere feels as local as the wine.
DAY 2 – DOURO HERITAGE AND CHURCHES | Leave the city for a guided day in the Douro Valley, where family-run wineries share the generations-long craft of winemaking and lunch is prepared at the table of a local vintner. Back in Porto, the evening turns toward Igreja de São Francisco, a space where Gothic bones and Baroque gold reveal the layers of faith and power. Dinner follows along the riverfront, with seafood and wine echoing the Douro’s abundance.
DAY 3 – RIVER JOURNEYS AND CATHEDRALS | The final day carries you onto the Douro with a guided boat experience that blends water, wine, and the flavors of a traditional sardine lunch. Returning to the city, step into Porto Cathedral, a landmark that has shaped the skyline and spirit of the city across centuries. Evening is left to reflection, with Porto’s rhythm accompanying the close of your journey.
WHERE TO STAY IN PORTO | Porto invites you to choose your base according to your rhythm. Ribeira puts you directly on the riverfront, with sweeping views and easy access to landmarks, though the nights are lively. Cedofeita offers a more local feel, with art galleries, cafés, and quieter streets just beyond the center. For those who prefer evenings by the sea, Foz provides Atlantic calm while keeping Porto close at hand.

You can book experiences directly from the itinerary and arrange your own hotels and restaurants. Download the Fernwayer iOS app to edit your trip and make it your own.

Living the Pulse of Porto

3 days in Porto with food tours, Douro Valley wineries, river cruises, and historic landmarks.

Over seven days, Buenos Aires greets you with ritual, rhythm, and grand facades before the road opens west to Mendoza and the Andes. This week balances guided encounters with space to breathe. You will taste the city in markets and kitchens, learn its stories in theaters and cemeteries, and feel its pulse in a milonga. 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. After a short pause, the evening unfolds inside a real milonga with a professional dancer who explains the codes and ronda. You may join a dance or simply observe with a glass of wine.
DAY 2 – PALERMO AND CORRIENTES | Late morning brings a guided food walk in Palermo Soho that moves between bakeries, markets, and grills for classics like empanadas, choripán, and steak cuts, paced like a seven-course meal. Rest in the afternoon or wander the plazas. In the evening, a guided walk along Avenida Corrientes ties together theaters, beloved bookstores, and café culture, with simple tastings that carry the street’s late-night spirit.
DAY 3 – BELLE ÉPOQUE AND EMPANADAS | Begin with a guided architecture walk that links Belle Époque façades on Avenida de Mayo, the symbolism of Palacio Barolo, and a pause in a period café before finishing near Teatro Colón. It is history told in stone and light. Later, join a hands-on empanada class in a local home, rolling and folding before sharing wine and dessert.
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. After lunch, head to the airport for an afternoon or evening flight to Mendoza.
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.

Santa Maria delle Grazie is a treasure trove of Renaissance art and history. This church complex and Dominican convent are globally renowned for housing Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, "The Last Supper," within its refectory. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1980, it continues to draw global visitors. Key highlights:
1 - The foundation of Santa Maria delle Grazie dates back to 1459, when Count Gaspare Vimercati donated land to the Dominican friars of Sant'Eustorgio. The construction of the convent and church commenced in 1463, under the chief architect Guiniforte Solari. Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, later played a pivotal role in expanding and beautifying the complex, transforming it into a mausoleum for the Sforza family. 
2 - The church features seven chapels dedicated to the Virgin of Graces, adorned with artworks like Antonello da Messina's sculptures and frescoes by Gaudenzio Ferrari. The church's northern side houses the ancient Chapel delle Grazie and the library, while the southern side boasts the refectory with da Vinci's fresco and Montorfano's "The Crucifixion." 
3 - Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper": This is the centerpiece of the church's appeal. Painted between 1495 and 1497, this iconic mural has endured time, including ham-fisted restorations and war damage. The painting depicts Christ revealing a forthcoming betrayal, a scene etched with horror and disbelief. Despite its deterioration over time, recent restorations have revived its colors and details.
4 - The church's neighborhood is a treasure trove of history and culture. It's close to Milan's Triennale, Castello Sforzesco, and other significant sites like the Basilica di Sant'Ambrogio and the Archaeological museum.
The church's tranquil atmosphere offers a stark contrast to the bustling city life. Access to "The Last Supper" requires advance booking: https://cenacolovinciano.org/en/
