Touring & Exploring
Rare experiences shaped by access, storytelling, and human connection — encountered on their own or brought together along the road.
In the Douro Valley, the rhythm of harvest takes hold as guests pick grapes by hand on steep terraces, press them barefoot in stone lagares to traditional songs, and then drift aboard a rabelo boat once the work is done. Outside Barcelona, winter brings travelers to a calçotada (a festive Catalan tradition centered around eating calçots) at a working farm.
In Andalusia, guests join a local brotherhood for a single day of the El Rocío pilgrimage, walking sandy paths from dawn into the night as songs are sung, and meals shared, as devotion and celebration unfold side by side. In Seville, after the Real Alcázar has closed to the public, a rare evening visit reveals the palace and gardens in silence and moonlight.
In the medina of Fes, an intimate evening unfolds through Sufi storytelling and music, where a Hadra ritual — rarely encountered beyond closed circles — creates space for listening, reflection, and conversation over a shared meal. Across the Atlantic, in the hills outside Oaxaca, mezcal's story is followed from agave to still, witnessing small family-run palenques carrying a craft forward.

Rare Experiences & Curated Journeys
Our Rare Experiences are curated, mostly private day tours. Each is instantly bookable and led by an Experience Maker — from architects and historians to flamenco dancers, chefs, and fishermen — whose storytelling is rooted in place, practice, and community.
Our Curated Journeys show how these experiences can be brought together into routes designed for touring over several days and across multiple places. They illustrate what’s possible when the right pieces are put together. Use them as inspiration for shaping a journey along the road and book individual experiences directly.
