This sunset photography experience chases the light through breathtaking viewpoints of Cappadocia’s otherworldly terrain, capturing the sky as it shifts from gold to blue to dusk. It begins with a hotel pick-up and a drive to the Red Valley, where the slopes of Red and Rose Valleys flare with color in the low sun. Shadows stretch. Stone turns to fire. Your every shot will frame a moment that won’t repeat.

As the sun falls, you'll move to a second lookout — Ortahisar or Uçhisar — where twilight settles in layers of violet and deepening blue. The silence grows. The air cools. The surreal becomes still more unreal.

You’ll be back in time for dinner, memory card full of stunning images of Cappadocia’s shifting light in hand, and the surreal landscape still unfolding in your mind. The region’s unique rock formations and minimal light pollution make it ideal for capturing dramatic contrasts and subtle tonal shifts—perfect for photographers at any level.

While sunrise gets most of the attention, sunset reveals a different, equally powerful and captivating side of the landscape. As the day fades, the soft, angled light brings out the rich textures of the Red and Rose Valleys, while twilight casts a cool, serene glow over the region’s cliffs and rock castles.

Unlike the crowded morning hours, this time of day invites stillness and lets you focus fully on capturing the surreal landscape in shifting tones and moods. Guided by a professional photographer who knows the region intimately, you'll be led to the most striking vantage points and coached on how to work with natural light, composition, and timing. 

This is an opportunity to translate Cappadocia’s iconic landscape into compelling images, with the guidance and insight of someone who truly understands how to capture it at its best. It’s not just about taking beautiful photos—it’s about learning how to read the land, chase the light, and tell a story through the frame.

Portugal

A full-day expedition from Lisbon to Évora and back in the tradition of a “grand tour”. Évora, a UNESCO World Heritage site, rich in Roman, Gothic, Manueline, Renaissance, and Baroque architecture is a living museum that encapsulates over twenty centuries of Portuguese history. The city blossomed into its golden age as the residence of Portuguese kings during the 15th and 16th centuries and is a showcase of portuguese architectural evolution. Here, you can traverse time, from the enigmatic prehistoric cromlech to the imposing Roman Temple, medieval Évora Cathedral, and the contemplative Bones Chapel. The city harmoniously blends its architecture, with low whitewashed houses adorned with azulejos and wrought-iron balconies, set in narrow medieval streets. This architectural coherence, deeply influenced by significant historical events, makes Évora the Alentejo’s capital and a distinct representation of Portugal's cultural and architectural journey.

Private car from Lisbon to Évora and return. 

Évora's uniqueness stems from its rich tapestry of cultural and architectural influences spanning several eras, each leaving an indelible mark on the cityscape. The Roman Temple, a testament to ancient grandeur, coexists with medieval and Renaissance marvels, symbolizing the city's evolution through time. This city, remarkably untouched by the 1755 earthquake, has maintained its historical integrity, offering a window into the past where you can witness the convergence of various architectural styles and urban planning. Évora’s gastronomical excellence and wine offerings add another layer of uniqueness as a top culinary destination. Tiago's expertise brings to life Évora's history, architectural heritage and cultural significance along with authentic local experiences. The tour includes hidden gems like the Painted Houses and the Aqueduto da Água de Prata. Tiago narrates the tour with vivid descriptions and unique insights, engaging you in Évora's rich history and culture. 

The Roman Temple, a well-preserved 1st-century structure, offers a window into Évora's ancient Roman past. This temple, often mistakenly associated with the goddess Diana, is a significant symbol of Roman influence in the region. Its Corinthian-style columns and the architectural design reflect the city's historical importance and one of the few archeological remains of that period. Surrounding the Roman Temple there are several Palaces from different periods, a small romantic garden with a great view and several cultural institutions, such Évora Museum, the Public Library, the Enoteca and Eugénio de Almeida Foundation.

The Square of Condes de Vila Flor is a time capsule regarding different historic-artistic periods. In the center of the square, there's one of the iconic images of Évora -  the Roman Temple, from 1st century BCE. Surrounding it, some preserved medieval walls from the old castle area, but also, the Cadaval Palace, the Lóios Palace, the Vimioso Palace and the Eugénio de Almeida Foundation -  former Inquisition Palace.

The 1st century Roman Temple, dedicated to Emperor Augustus, reminds of Évora’s antiquity.

Roman Temple and Palaces

The Palácio Dom Manuel I, originally a convent transformed also into a royal palace, showcases a blend of Gothic, Manueline, Mudéjar, and Renaissance styles. It's known for its elegant Manueline porch and Mudéjar-style loggia. Today host the Évora interpretive center, exploring the city rich history through distinct chronological periods.

The palace, a significant late medieval and renaissance structure, played a vital role during the 15th-16th century Portuguese Discoveries Age, hosting cultural and political activities, when Évora was one of the Kingdom main city. It's a living testament to the vibrant intellectual life of Évora during its golden age.

Palace Dom Manuel is inside Évora Public Garden, also with neo-moorish Bandstand and "Fake Ruins" 

Renaissance King Manuel Palace

The Church of Misericórdia founded in early 16th century by the King D. Manuel I, will be rebuilt and enlarged in1554, as we can see today. The church, with a single nave and sober proportions, features a majestic set of baroque decoration, with tiles and gilded carvings from the 17th and 18th centuries, making it one of the most beautiful churches in the city of Évora.

The white church appears austere and simple from the outside, but inside, it's covered in magnificent tile decoration designed by the Lisbon workshop of master António de Oliveira Bernardes, one of the most famous of that time period.  Seven panels of tiles with blue cobalt and white decoration represents the Works of Mercy  and Spiritual Qualities.

The nave has a group of seven baroque paintings by the Eborense painter Francisco Xavier de Castro. On the main altar, we can see one of the largest set of gilded altarpiece in Évora.

The Misericórdia Church has a simple exterior design, but an immensely rich interior decoration.

Baroque Church of Misericórdia

Giraldo Square, the heart of Évora, is surrounded by medieval arches, a historic fountain, and 19th-century elite houses. The square's Renaissance white marble fountain, built in 1571, and S. Antão Church symbolizes the once city's richness and political relevance. Giraldo Square has been a focal point for social and cultural activities for centuries, offering a glimpse into the daily life of Évora throughout history, connecting the present to its past.

Praça do Giraldo is an icon of homage to the medieval christian warrior Geraldo Geraldes, the Fearless, who conquered Évora from the Moors in 1167 and became its ruler. The square has architectural references from numerous historical periods: the arcades that adorn it on the side are from the medieval period, the beautiful marble fountain and the Church of Santo Antão, from the 16th century, and the neoclassical and romantic mansions of the Eborense elite are from the 19th century. Nowadays, it's the vibrant center of the city, with its restaurants, cafes, terraces and comercial, religious and cultural activities.

Giraldo Square is the social and commercial heart of Évora, where all the streets converge!

Giraldo Square

The Évora Cathedral, a mix of Romanesque and Gothic styles, is the largest medieval cathedral in Portugal. It stands as a symbol of the Christian reconquest and showcases the architectural transitions of the time. Featuring a huge gothic cloister and a unique rooftop walk, the cathedral showcases the blend of Romanesque and Gothic styles. 

The Medieval Évora Cathedral was built entirely with austere dark granite- including the  Cloister, but will be  altered in different historical periods - from the 12th to the 18th century, resulting in immensely rich and heterogenic colorful decorated interiors.

The Cathedral terrace is the highest point in the city. From there you can see the entire city, whether the historic city within the walls, with all its heritage, or the new city made up of several neighborhoods all around. Furthermore, there is a vast horizon where you can see the extensive plain and some other historical locations.

The Évora Cathedral is one of the oldest and biggest in Portugal, hosting a spectacular Cloister.

Medieval Évora Cathedral

The University of Évora was founded in 1559 by Cardinal D. Henrique - last portuguese king of 2nd dinasty, being the second university to be founded in Portugal,  after the University of Coimbra (1537). The university - established by the Jesuits, as the nearby Espírito Santo Church, once positioned Évora as Portugal's second city in terms of intellectual prominence. The university's architecture and the church's design reflect the city's academic, religious and artistic significance during different historical periods.

The spectacular building of the Old University of Évora is based on a quadrangular plan that surrounds a grand cloister, also known as Pátio dos Gerais. In the center there's a fountain, surrounded by colonnaded galleries, with the beautiful facade of the former chapel of the Colégio do Espírito Santo rising in the center. The various class-rooms of the school were covered with beautiful baroque tiles alluding to the subjects taught there – Mathematics, Astronomy, Physics and Fine Arts – forming one of the most important Baroque sets with secular themes found in Portugal. But there's also other decorative themes and techniques, such as paintings, inlaid stones and sculptures around the different rooms.

Lisbon - Évora 

The Convent of São Francisco de Évora,  founded in the 12th century, was the first house of the Franciscan Order in Portugal. In the 15th century it received the title of "Convent of Gold", due to the wealth with which it was decorated by the Royal Family and its proximity to the Royal Palace. In the 17th century, reliving a period of otherness and introspection, the Chapel of Bones is built with the aim of transmitting the message of transience and fragility of human life.

The Bones Chapel, with its interior lined with the bones of monks and common people brought from neighboring cemeteries, offers a contemplative space on human existence. The chapel's design, based on the ossuary of San Bernadino all'Ossa in Milan, leaves visitors in awe with its intricate arrangement of bones and skulls, reflecting on the historical and cultural aspects of mortality and religion. The chapel symbolizes Évora's historical depth and the Franciscans' desire to provide a space for spiritual reflection.

Italy

This is a private two-hour experience designed for travelers who want to explore Milan through one of its most refined districts, Brera, in a personal, elegant, and authentic way. Guided by a local personal stylist, you’ll walk through a curated selection of independent boutiques, ateliers, and vintage stores that reflect the Milanese approach to style: quiet luxury, craftsmanship, and individuality.

Each stop is chosen for its story, aesthetic, and quality, offering access to spaces known for character and timeless appeal. Throughout the experience, a professional photographer discreetly documents the walk, capturing spontaneous moments, details, and atmosphere, turning the journey into a visual record - a lookbook - of your time in Milan.

This is not a conventional shopping tour, but a slow, intentional experience where style, place, and presence come together. You leave with a deeper connection to Milan’s culture and a visual memory shaped by the city itself.

This experience is designed as a curated encounter rather than a traditional shopping tour. The personal styling is fully tailored: your stylist guides you through choices based on proportion, materials, and personal expression, encouraging conversation and a clearer understanding of your individual style. You’re invited to touch fabrics, try pieces, and engage with each place at your own pace.

What also sets the experience apart is the presence of a professional photographer throughout the walk. Rather than staged images, the photographer captures moments as they naturally unfold — movement through streets, quiet pauses, textures, and light — transforming the experience itself into a lasting visual narrative you can look back on.

By combining styling, place, and documentation, this experience allows you not just to explore Brera, but to feel part of it, leaving with both a refined perspective on Milanese style and a personal lookbook of the journey.

The experience is hosted by Giulia Barbagallo, a personal stylist and image consultant, and Emanuele Dello Strologo, a professional photographer.

Giulia Barbagallo is a personal stylist and image consultant whose work is centered on guiding individuals toward a style that feels authentic, intentional and aligned with who they are. Her approach to personal shopping is refined and structured, yet deeply personal, focusing on observation, dialogue and awareness of the body. During the experience, she guides guests through thoughtful choices, encouraging confidence, self-expression and presence without relying on rigid rules or trends.

Emanuele Dello Strologo is a photographer based between Genoa and Milan. His eye has been shaped by over a decade of work in reportage, portraiture, and black and white photography, with past collaborations including Corbis and Getty Images. He's always observing, camera in hand, drawn to fleeting scenes of everyday life.

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.

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.

End your perfect day with a luxurious private boat tour along the Barcelona coast. You'll depart by catamaran from the historic Port Vell, and gently make your way up and down this serene slice of the Mediterranean coast.

From the sea, you'll get a whole new sense of scale and a new appreciation of Barcelona's most emblematic monumental buildings, such as the Torre Mapfre, the W Hotel and the Tres Xemeneies. You'll also get a new perspective on the city's famous peaks, Monjuic and Tibidabo, which have framed and defined the city since its inception.

Unwind while enjoying a selection of Catalan wines, from regions such as the Penedès, Priorat, and Empordà, served alongside a selection of high-quality cheeses and meats. While you indulge in some of the best flavors the region has to offer, you will be enraptured by the rich oranges, pinks, and purples of the Mediterranean sunset.

Perfect for a milestone birthday, special celebration or time with family. 

This isn’t a tourist-packed party boat. It’s a privately chartered catamaran—sleek, quiet, and designed for comfort—with space to stretch out, music if you want it, and the freedom to move between shaded lounges and sunlit decks. With capacity for just 8 guests on this Fernwayer experience, it feels like your own floating terrace on the Mediterranean.

Departing from a quiet dock beside Barceloneta, your captain and steward welcome you like old friends. They're locals who know the coastline intimately. They’ll point out the stories behind the skyline, pour regional wines they’re proud of, and serve generous Catalan-style charcuterie to go with it.

There’s no rush. The experience unfolds around your pace and your mood. And as the sky changes—pink, then gold, then violet—you realize it’s the rare kind of quiet that makes you feel both present and far away at the same time.

If conditions allow, and you're interested, you can anchor for a swim so you can float with the skyline in view.

Morocco

This is our essential storytelling session—if you only have an hour in Marrakesh, make it this one.  It brings Morocco’s oral heritage to life through folktales, historical narratives, and epic sagas. In a traditional riad or museum, you'll be guided by a professional storyteller who draws from Morocco’s deep well of narrative tradition. In just 45–60 minutes, you’ll be taken on a mythical journey into the heart of Moroccan culture, shaped by generations of spoken word.

You’re invited to sit back with a cup of Moroccan tea as a live musician plays soothing, rhythmic melodies that deepen the emotional resonance of each story. The experience is atmospheric and immersive, led by a trained storyteller who honors a centuries-old tradition where storytelling served as both memory and cultural transmission.

Whether you're seeking connection or simply curious, this is a rare and unforgettable window into Morocco’s soul.

This experience connects you to a living tradition that has shaped Moroccan culture for over a thousand years. Storytelling, or hikayat, was once a nightly ritual in homes—an act of passing down wisdom through tales of princes, sultans, and tricksters. It was also the beating heart of Marrakesh’s famed Jemaa el-Fnaa, where hlaykias (storytellers) once held crowds rapt with only a stool, a prop, and their voice.

Today, as modern life and technology threaten the future of this oral heritage, a new generation of Moroccan storytellers is working to preserve and reimagine it. This experience is part of that revival. Set in intimate spaces in the medina, it captures the spirit of the traditional hikayat circle—enhanced by live music and mint tea.

It’s a chance to slow down, listen deeply, and witness a tradition once on the brink of fading now finding new life through voice, rhythm, and shared memory. This truly captures the intimacy, legacy, and human connection at the heart of hikayat.

This Milan itinerary is sleek, elegant, and curated — the perfect expression of Milanese sophistication across architecture, design, fashion, and food. It’s about Milan as it’s truly lived: designed, composed, and always in conversation with its past and future.

Milan is precision with personality—a city where modern lines meet Renaissance texture, and where fashion, architecture, and food are expressions of the same pursuit: style with substance. This three-day itinerary moves through that balance with intent, beginning in the geometry and vision of Gio Ponti’s architectural legacy. From the Pirelli Tower to lesser-known gems, the morning reveals how Milan’s skyline was shaped not just by ambition, but by design thinking.

The afternoon shifts to the Navigli District—Leonardo da Vinci’s hand in its canals, but today, the flow belongs to artists, gallery owners, and baristas. You’ll wander cobbled paths, stop for an aperitivo, and settle into a slow dinner at Osteria Conchetta, where Milanese cuisine is served without pretense but full of detail.

Day two leaves the city for the lakes. A curated visit to Lake Como weaves together water, stone, and stillness. At Villa del Balbianello and through the towns of Como and Bellagio, nature is never separate from design—it’s framed by it. This isn’t just sightseeing; it’s about atmosphere. Scale, silence, villas on cliffs. Beauty at rest.

On your final day, the focus returns to Milan with a walk through Brera. Here, art meets appetite—small galleries, curated boutiques, and a lunch scene that respects tradition while playing with it. The afternoon brings you to Castello Sforzesco and its layered museums, followed by a pause in Sempione Park—green space as counterbalance. And finally: dinner at Tartufotto, where truffle meets elegance in the heart of the city.

United States

This 10-day Morocco journey begins and ends in Marrakesh, unfolding through coastal Essaouira and the High Atlas Mountains in between. From artistic neighborhoods and sensory rituals to ocean air and mountain trails, this itinerary invites you to see Morocco not just as a destination but as a series of living moments, each led by chefs, photographers, artisans, and storytellers.

You will take part in Sufi evenings, hands-on cooking, contemporary gallery visits, and village walks. Every stop balances exploration and stillness, allowing time to absorb, connect, and be moved by Morocco’s many layers, from rooftop views to mountain paths, from hammam steam to handcrafted silver.

DAYS 1-2 – MARRAKESH | Ease into the journey with Amanda’s Courtyard Kitchen, a warm welcome into Moroccan cooking set in a private home. Visit El Badi Palace on your own before an immersive evening of Sufi presence with live Hadra music and shared dinner. The next day focuses on the city’s creative energy. Begin with a guided art tour and curator-led meet-up at Comptoir des Mines Galerie. Spend the afternoon in Gueliz, Marrakesh’s modern district, to visit the Yves Saint Laurent Museum and Jardin Majorelle, spaces that blend color, fashion, and legacy.

DAY 3 – MARRAKESH TO ESSAOUIRA | Begin the morning with A Thousand and One Crafts, a guided walk through the artisan medina of Marrakesh. After lunch, travel west through argan country toward the coast. Essaouira is directly west of Marrakesh, a 2.5 to 3 hour drive, a straight shot to the Atlantic. It offers a gentle and relaxed pause after the intensity of Marrakesh. Arrive before sunset and take in the sea breeze.

DAYS 4-5 – ESSAOUIRA | Capture the spirit of Essaouira with Framed Essaouira, a full-day photography tour that reveals the city’s light, rhythm, and intimate angles. On the following day, dive deeper into craftsmanship with Jewelry Makers of Essaouira, a quiet and inspiring look into workshops that keep Moroccan silversmithing alive.

DAY 6 – ESSAOUIRA TO ATLAS MOUNTAINS | Today is a long but beautiful transfer from the Atlantic coast to Imlil in the High Atlas Mountains. As the terrain shifts, so does the pace. By sunset, you will be surrounded by peaks and valleys, far from city sounds.

DAYS 7-8 – ATLAS MOUNTAINS | Walk the Mule Tracks of Aremd, a soft yet panoramic hike that threads through the hills and villages near Imlil. The following day, go deeper with The Quintessential High Atlas, a guided trek that brings you into the life and rhythm of the mountains.

DAY 9 – ATLAS TO MARRAKESH | Begin your day with The Salt Route of Marigha, a scenic walk through argan groves and salt flats. Then, return to Marrakesh for your final evening. The shift from mountain quiet to city color makes this arrival feel like a reawakening.

DAY 10 – MARRAKESH | Close your journey with Art Beyond Borders, a guided look at contemporary art in Marrakesh. Enjoy one last rooftop, one last mint tea, and one last story before heading toward your next chapter, carrying Morocco’s echoes with you.

An Escape to Morocco

10 days in Morocco through Marrakesh, Essaouira, and the Atlas Mountains with art, food, and nature.

This road trip weaves together two Atlantic-shaped regions defined by strong identities and a deep relationship with food, wine, and ideas. Beginning in Bilbao, you explore how contemporary art and traditional cuisine coexist in a city reinvented without losing its soul. The journey then expands into the Basque Country’s landscapes and villages, where language, history, and geography form a distinct worldview. In San Sebastián, elegance, nature, and gastronomy converge, balancing curated experiences with unhurried time. Crossing into France, the tone shifts in Bordeaux, where grandeur, wine, and layered histories dominate. Here, stories grow darker and more introspective, balanced by restoration and sensory pleasure. Across both regions, the itinerary highlights contrast—modern and ancient, light and shadow, coastal openness and inward reflection—connected by the sea and a shared devotion to living well.

DAY 1 – BILBAO | Arrive the day before to fully enjoy your first day. The morning explores how a single building reshaped Bilbao’s identity. Beyond architecture, this experience reveals the social and emotional transformation sparked by the Guggenheim, positioning art as a catalyst for renewal. In the evening, shift from theory to flavor on a pintxo trail through the old town. Moving bar to bar, Basque cuisine reveals itself as a social ritual of small bites, bold flavors, and conversation—visionary yet grounded, global yet fiercely local.

DAY 2 – BEYOND BILBAO | Today broadens perspective through landscapes, stories, and cultural touchstones that define Basque life. You’ll explore the region’s relationship to land, language, and independence, connecting rural and urban worlds. Rather than monuments, the focus is context: why food tastes the way it does, why towns are shaped as they are, and how history continues to inform daily life.

DAY 3 – ARRIVE IN SAN SEBASTIÁN | Travel east to San Sebastián, where green hills meet a perfect crescent bay. The afternoon captures the city’s defining balance of beauty, elegance, and culinary excellence. By evening, San Sebastián feels intimate and assured, a place where daily life unfolds with quiet confidence.

DAY 4 – SAN SEBASTIÁN | A guided immersion reveals how the city’s bay, beaches, promenades, and coastline shape its identity. Walking La Concha, you see how urban planning and nature converge to define mood and rhythm. The afternoon is free to wander—along the promenade, through the old town, or beside the sea.

Day 5 – ARRIVAL IN BORDEAUX | Crossing into France, Bordeaux greets you with elegance layered over complexity. Dark Tales of Bordeaux uncovers histories of power, trade, and moral ambiguity hidden beneath grand façades. Familiar streets take on new meaning as wealth, ambition, and exploitation come into focus, setting a reflective tone.

Day 6 – BORDEAUX | Morning centers on restoration and continuity in one of Bordeaux’s historic districts, revealing how the past is carefully tended rather than erased. In the afternoon, wine tasting in the city expresses place and history through flavor. The journey ends grounded in craftsmanship, pleasure, and restraint.

WHERE TO STAY ALONG THE ROUTE | In Bilbao, Ensanche offers central ease, while Casco Viejo brings character and nightlife. In San Sebastián, Centro or Gros provide beach access and dining, with Gros feeling more local. In Bordeaux, the Triangle d’Or suits elegance seekers, while Saint-Michel offers atmosphere and history. Each base balances immersion and downtime.

Mexico City unfolds in layers, where murals and markets, pyramids and plazas reveal both its ancient roots and its dynamic present. This three-day journey blends guided encounters with artists, historians, and food experts, while leaving space to take in the rhythm of the neighborhoods. It is designed for travelers who want to understand the city through its art, flavors, and living culture, not just to see its landmarks.
DAY 1 – MURALS AND MEXICAN FLAVORS | Begin your journey with a guided tour of Mexico City’s revolutionary murals, where each wall tells the story of politics, identity, and art in motion. The works of Rivera, Orozco, and Siqueiros set the stage for a day immersed in color and meaning. After a pause in the afternoon, step into a hands-on food workshop where you learn the process of making tortillas, taste tacos hot off the griddle, and sip mezcal while hearing about its traditions. It is a full day that balances art with flavor, giving you a first taste of Mexico City’s creative pulse.

DAY 2 – FRIDA, DIEGO AND SAN ÁNGEL | Spend the day in Coyoacán with a guided cultural tour devoted to Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera. Visit their iconic houses and museums, and walk through the leafy streets that shaped their art and daily lives. In the late afternoon, shift south to San Ángel for a guided walking tour through flower markets, colonial churches, and quiet plazas. Bougainvillea-lined streets and baroque details reveal a slower, elegant side of the city, offering a gentle contrast to the artistic intensity of the morning.

DAY 3 – TEOTIHUACAN AND POLANQUITO | The final day takes you out of the city on a guided day trip to Teotihuacan, where the pyramids of the Sun and Moon rise against the horizon. Walking alongside a historian, you will uncover the stories of this ancient site and imagine the scale of life in the first great city of the Americas. Returning to Mexico City, the evening is a celebration of modern flavors in Polanco. A guided food tour introduces you to elegant streets, neighborhood history, and a sequence of dishes that bring the day to a satisfying close. It is the perfect balance of past and present, ending the journey with both wonder and warmth.
WHERE TO STAY IN MEXICO CITY | Centro Histórico offers a classic stay close to the Zócalo and major landmarks, surrounded by history at every turn. Roma and Condesa bring a creative rhythm with leafy streets, cafés, and nightlife that feel distinctly local. Polanco is refined and central, with museums, dining, and parks at your doorstep. Each neighborhood offers its own atmosphere, all well connected for exploring the city.

Mexico

Mexico City Roots and Stories

3 days in Mexico City reveal murals, Frida and Diego, Teotihuacan, and food tours across the city.

This Andalusia road trip traces southern Spain’s emotional and cultural spine, moving from Atlantic shores to Moorish palaces and Mediterranean light. Beginning in Cádiz and Jerez de la Frontera, the journey enters flamenco’s deepest roots before unfolding in Seville through ritual, reflection, and royal history. Olive groves and ancestral foodways ground the experience before the road turns toward Granada, where poetry lives in streets, caves, and the Alhambra’s slow revelations. The final stretch reaches Málaga, where innovation meets the sea and wine aged underwater closes the journey with coastal elegance. Performance, craft, landscape, and quiet introspection form one cohesive Andalusian story.

DAY 1 – JEREZ DE LA FRONTERA | Arrive the day before to rest and begin after breakfast. Jerez, one of flamenco’s spiritual homes, introduces soleá and bulería: introspection and rhythmic joy. This is not a staged show but a lived encounter shaped by lineage & improvisation. You’ll see how flamenco emerged through patios, taverns, and family gatherings, where rhythm, voice, and movement carry unspoken histories. Jerez’s whitewashed streets provide a fitting backdrop.

DAY 2 – CÁDIZ | The morning unfolds on the water, sailing the Bay of Cádiz amid Atlantic winds and open horizons. Fortifications, fishing boats, and coastlines reveal the city’s maritime soul. In the afternoon, travel inland toward Seville through landscapes shaped by trade and agriculture. 

DAY 3 – SEVILLE | This day is about slowing down. Beyond monuments, Seville reveals itself through silence, courtyards, filtered light, and stillness. Walking patiently, you experience how architecture, emotion, and spiritual life intertwine. By day’s end, Seville feels less like a destination than a state of mind—warm, layered, and quietly profound.

DAY 4 – OLIVE GROVES & THE ALCÁZAR BY NIGHT | Morning takes you to Alcalá de Guadaíra to explore olive culture rooted in land, family, and tradition. In the evening, return for a nighttime visit to the Alcázar. After dark, the palace transforms—cool air, soft light, and near solitude reveal Mudéjar architecture and gardens in calm intimacy. Soil and stone come into balance.

DAY 5 – GRANADA | Travel to Granada in the morning. In the evening, experience flamenco in Sacromonte’s cave dwellings. Raw and communal, the music reverberates through stone, shaped by Romani history and resilience. Performer and audience merge into a shared emotional space.

DAY 6 – THE ALHAMBRA | The Alhambra is approached as a sensory journey rather than a checklist. Sound, texture, scent, light, and movement guide understanding. Water, carvings, and gardens express harmony and impermanence. The afternoon invites quiet wandering, carrying the palace’s calm into daily streets.

DAY 7 – GRANADA TO MÁLAGA | The morning explores Granada’s ceramic traditions, where patterns and glazes reveal centuries of cultural exchange. Craft becomes historical record. Then descend toward Málaga, trading mountains for Mediterranean light. Arrival brings a lighter, sea-facing rhythm.

DAY 8 – MÁLAGA | Explore Málaga with born-and-bred locals who reveal the city’s layers—from cathedral squares to maritime neighborhoods. The day unfolds through tapas stops and lived insight shaped by family history.

DAY 9 – THE WINE THAT SLEPT UNDERWATER | The journey ends with wine aged beneath the sea. Pressure, temperature, and time transform flavor, blending tradition with experimentation. The sea becomes cellar and collaborator, offering a reflective yet forward-looking conclusion.

WHERE TO STAY
Cádiz’s Old Town offers proximity to port, beaches, and local life. In Seville, Santa Cruz or El Arenal balance landmarks and quiet charm; Triana feels local and river-bound. Granada’s Albaicín offers character and views, while Realejo is calm and central. In Málaga, Centro Histórico suits first visits; La Malagueta offers beachside ease.

Andalusia Along the Road

A road trip itinerary through Andalusia, from flamenco heartlands to Moorish palaces and sea views.

Tokyo is a city that reinvents itself in every light. Centuries of history unfold beside glowing screens and restless streets. This three-day journey moves through time and texture — from temples and textile ateliers to neon alleys and quiet shrines — revealing how the city’s rhythm shifts from reflection to motion. Guided by local storytellers, you’ll experience Tokyo through its architecture, artistry, and everyday encounters, finding a balance between discovery and moments to breathe and wander at your own pace.

DAY 1 – TOKYO THROUGH TIME | Begin your journey with a full-day guided tour tracing Tokyo’s evolution through centuries of change. From the Edo Castle grounds and ancient temples of Asakusa to the Western architecture of the Meiji era, the day reveals how each period has reshaped the city’s skyline and spirit. Along the Sumida River, the modern towers rise above preserved gardens where the rhythm of ritual endures. Between shrines and civic landmarks, you’ll see how Tokyo’s neighborhoods carry forward the legacy of power, renewal, and quiet resilience. A day that begins in stillness ends in movement, with time for a reflective walk or early evening meal near the water.

DAY 2 – FROM OLD STREETS TO MODERN DESIGN | The morning opens with a guided photo walk through one of Tokyo’s most atmospheric neighborhoods. In Disappearing Tokyo, photographer Lee Chapman leads you into alleys where Showa-era signs fade under new facades and locals pause for coffee or conversation. It’s an intimate portrait of a city in transition — fleeting, honest, and human. After a light meal and coffee break, continue into Ginza’s Architectural Icons, where journalist Toshiko Sakurai unravels the design stories behind Tokyo’s most polished district. Here, façades reflect light like art pieces and every corner reveals a conversation between history and innovation. The day bridges Tokyo’s two faces: the nostalgic and the refined.

DAY 3 – CRAFT AND CONTRAST | The final day begins quietly, inside the private home of kimono scholar Sheila Cliffe. In A Kimono Connoisseur’s Closet, you’ll step into a collection that tells Japan’s history in silk — patterns, textures, and techniques passed through generations. Surrounded by colors and fabric, the morning moves at a slower pace, connecting tradition with artistry. In the afternoon, join filmmaker Edgin Ticzon for Tokyo, Cut to Scene, a guided journey through the city’s cinematic layers. From forest shrines to the neon scramble of Shibuya, each stop plays out like a shift in light and rhythm. The day ends as the city comes alive — narrow streets glowing with paper lanterns, where conversations flow as easily as the evening breeze.

WHERE TO STAY IN TOKYO | Stay in Shibuya if you want to be at the heart of the action — a lively hub of shopping, nightlife, and energy that defines modern Tokyo. Shinjuku is ideal for travelers who value convenience, with endless dining options and quick train links across the city. For a slower rhythm, Asakusa offers a glimpse of traditional Tokyo with temples and quiet streets, while Ginza brings sophistication, elegant hotels, and polished calm after dark. For a more local balance, Kichijōji sits just outside the center, combining creative cafés, green parks, and an easygoing neighborhood feel.

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.

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.

Living the Pulse of Porto

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

This 5-day Rome itinerary is immersive and story-rich — an invitation to feel the rhythm of the city through architecture, rituals and everyday beauty. Designed for those who seek meaning behind the monuments, it blends ancient grandeur with intimate encounters, placing conversation, taste, and wonder at the heart of each day. You’ll walk through empires and gardens, learn from artists and artisans, and leave with a deeper sense of Rome’s timeless layers.

DAY 1 – FOUNDATIONS AND FIRST TASTES | Begin with Rome’s most iconic ruins: the Colosseum and Roman Forum, where arches and fragments still carry echoes of empire. Pause for a cozy lunch at Naumachia, then dive into Lazio wines with a guided tasting that celebrates native grape varieties. In the late afternoon, climb Capitoline Hill, one of Rome’s most symbolic spaces, and explore the Capitoline Museums, home to powerful statues and centuries of civic history. The day blends power, poetry and palate — your Roman senses officially awakened.

DAY 2 – MASTERS AND MUSEUMS | The morning begins inside the Doria Pamphilj Palace, where masterpieces by Caravaggio and Velázquez hang in hushed rooms. Enjoy a refined lunch at Tavola Bottiglieria before heading to the Vatican Museums and St. Peter’s Basilica, where artistic and spiritual power converge. As golden hour sets in, join Quintessenza: a photo walk that winds through the city’s evening light, past Renaissance façades and local food stories.

DAY 3 – FLAVORS AND STREET LIFE | Start the day with a guided food walk through the historic center, tasting espresso, pastries and pizza al taglio while hearing stories behind each bite. In the afternoon, wander through Piazza Navona and admire its Baroque fountains before continuing to the Pantheon, where ancient engineering still inspires awe. From there, follow the city’s rhythm to the Trevi Fountain and finally to the Spanish Steps, observing the light, the movement and the elegance of this iconic Roman setting. End the evening at Piccolo Buco for a wood-fired pizza.

DAY 4 – FAITH, FLAVOR, AND CRAFT | Rise early for a walk through Rome’s lesser-known churches to admire starry ceilings and sacred architecture. Enjoy lunch at Babette, where French-Italian dishes meet artful surroundings and garden calm. After lunch, step into a historic palazzo to learn the art of gelato-making — yes, you’ll taste the results. End your evening with dinner at Aroma, a Michelin-starred and framed by the Colosseum in glowing light.

DAY 5 – CLOSING SCENES AND ILLUSIONS | Explore the Baths of Caracalla with a guide who reveals how politics and ritual unfolded in Rome’s grand bathhouses. Stop for lunch at Casina Valadier, nestled above the city in Villa Borghese park. Meander through the Galleria Nazionale, a treasure of modern art inside Belle Époque walls. In the afternoon, dive into sacred geometry and illusion on a tour of Jesuit Rome. End your trip with dinner at Il Barroccio, a welcoming osteria near the Pantheon known for Roman classics in a relaxed, rustic setting.

WHERE TO STAY IN ROME | For first-time visitors, Centro Storico offers proximity to major sites and a lively rhythm. Trastevere charms with cobbled streets, local eateries, and sunset views over the Tiber. Prati is quieter and elegant, perfect for Vatican access and spacious stays. For creative travelers, Monti blends bohemian cafés with ancient streets. Choose based on your pace — central for movement, local for depth, scenic for calm.
