While Zen Buddhism arrived in Japan in the 13th century, it wasn't until the 15th century in the then-capital of Kyoto that it truly flourished, permeating many aspects of Japanese culture and expanding into numerous influential temples. One of the areas profoundly shaped by Zen Buddhism during this period was the Japanese tea ceremony.

On this exclusive deep dive into the connections between Zen Buddhism and the tea ceremony, Zen art history expert Eric Luong takes you to the Jotenkaku Museum, part of Shokoku-ji Temple, to explore its collection. Eric will give you a curated tour of the museum’s vast cultural treasures created by Zen priests and followers.

After gaining an understanding of Zen Buddhism through its artwork, you’ll move to a 100-year-old machiya townhouse to take part in an exclusive private tea ceremony that demonstrates the concepts you explored at the museum. This experience is led by a Japanese tea master with over eight years of practice both in Japan and abroad.

This experience is perfect for those who want to understand the Japanese tea ceremony beyond a superficial level, as well as for those with a deep appreciation for the study and application of Zen — especially within the arts.

Your host, Eric, will give you a thorough and personable perspective on the collection at the Jotenkaku Museum — home to important cultural properties rarely seen outside Japan — and introduce you to his friend, a Japanese tea ceremony practitioner offering a rare, exclusive ceremony in a private machiya setting. The machiya itself is over a century old, offering a serene, authentic atmosphere not usually open to the public.

In 2002, Eric came to Kyoto to earn his master’s degree in Japanese Art History and has called the city home ever since. His deep knowledge of Zen art, coupled with his profound respect for Japan’s culture and heritage, makes him a fascinating resource for understanding Zen Buddhism’s history and its influence on the tea ceremony.

Chile

This hands-on art and storytelling experience immerses you in Chilean art, culture, and mythology in the relaxed setting of a multifaceted artist's studio in a peaceful suburb north of Valparaíso. Marcela's home studio overlooks one of Concón's quaint fishing hamlets and sets the scene for an afternoon of creativity and calm.

Before starting, Marcela will share anecdotes relating to Concón and Valparaíso. Under her guidance, you'll try your hand at crafting a monotype print inspired by Chile's landscapes and mythology. Marcela will support you through creating the design and nurturing your natural talent and proving that everyone has an inner artist. By the time the activity is complete, your print will be ready to take away. No prior experience or skills in drawing or printmaking are necessary. To conclude your trip to Concón, Marcela will serve a light "once" of tea and pastries as well as recommending local seafood restaurants in the "Gastronomic Capital of Chile".

The experience provides rare access to the home studio of a professional Chilean artist. Marcela's portfolio spans lithography, painting, and folk art and she will share rich insight into Chile's artisanal legacy and culture while you create—storytelling lies at the heart of this activity. Marcela's studio stands above the Higuerillas fishing hamlet in Concón, a short drive from Viña del Mar or Valparaíso. This quiet area is rarely visited by international tourists which means you'll experience a truly local community. 

In terms of inspiration, you only need glance outside where dunes tumble to meet the waves of the Pacific and seals cling to rocky crags. This residential neighborhood is alive with flora and avifauna while Marcela, well-versed in Chilean mythology, has further visual prompts to kindle your creativity. Refreshments and pastries are provide—if you're lucky, you may get to try "pancito amasado" bread baked by Marcela's father, a retired lighthouse keeper.

Marcela Rodriguez is a contemporary multi-media artist. Born in 1965, Marcela grew up living in lighthouses with her lighthouse-keeper father along the rugged Southern Chilean coast. The vast Patagonian landscape and turbulent Pacific Ocean greatly influenced her. While in college, she discovered street theatre and performed with two important Santiago theatre troupes.

In 1992, Marcela moved to Minneapolis, USA, and obtained a bachelor’s degree in Theatre Arts and an MFA in painting and drawing. In 2001, she moved back to Chile and developed a passion for printmaking, focusing on lithography. Her artwork has been exhibited in galleries throughout Chile, Mexico, Cuba, and the USA.

Marcela has completed two art residencies for printmakers, including a month-long one in Veracruz, Mexico at La Ceiba Grafica in 2018 and with renowned artists from “Taller 99” in Santiago, 2019. She currently lives and works as a visual artist in Concon, Chile, and teaches at Casa Plan in Valparaíso.

France

This is a 2.5-hour introduction to the land, craft, and wines of a family-run estate in the Aquitaine countryside. It begins with a relaxed horseback ride through the vineyards — no experience needed. Your guide points out grape varieties and how slope, soil, and season shape each vine, while moving at an easy rhythm between vine rows that stretch across the landscape.

Back at the château, you’ll tour the production area and barrel cellar, discovering how heritage and craft are intertwined. Then, you'll taste four wines selected to highlight different expressions of terroir and show how choices in the cellar shape character in the glass.

The experience ends with a quiet picnic — regional specialties and a bottle of wine that the hosts will set up in the vines or on the estate grounds for you to enjoy on your own. This experience, shorter than Nathalie's 4-hour "Saddles and Cellars", is designed for travelers who want a vineyard experience without committing to a full afternoon.

What makes this experience unique is the immersion in the Aquitaine countryside. In just a few hours, you connect with the vineyard on horseback, taste its expressions in the glass, and savor a picnic that feels spontaneous but well-considered.

Riding among the vines, you see how the greens shift with the changing light, a landscape that shifts with every moment. An expert guide accompanies you, sharing stories of the grape varieties and the secrets of the vineyard. The connection deepens when you step into the château for the tasting. Here, the terroir you have just crossed is poured into the glass, revealed through four wines presented by the winemakers themselves.

There’s no formal structure — just good wine, beautiful scenery, and time to reflect. Your hosts give you space to enjoy the picnic in private. For those with limited time, it offers an easy, natural way to enjoy the countryside and its flavors without the full formalities of a hosted wine lunch.

At first glance, Marrakech appears like a whirlwind — a maze of color, sound, motion. But beneath the surface lies a deliberate order: the Golden Triangle, a sacred geometry that has shaped the city’s soul.

This is a walking and storytelling tour through that invisible structure: a symbolic triad that defines Marrakech’s spiritual, intellectual and artisanal legacy. At its heart sits Jemaa el Fna, the legendary square where trade, culture and belief converge. Then, you'll follow its three pivotal corners: the scholarly Ben Youssef district, the craft-based eastern medina, and the towering Koutoubia Mosque. You’ll pause for tea and a snack in a local Marrakshi home in the Medina.

Led by a master storyteller, each stop reveals a new layer of meaning—Marrakech as a garden city, where sacred geometry shaped civic design and daily ritual. The tour moves through alleyways and squares as the storyteller weaves legends, architecture and local memory into a live performance. 

This storytelling tour reveals the hidden blueprint of Marrakesh: a triangle of meaning, with Jemaa el Fna at its heart and three thematic poles shaping the city’s soul:

Ben Youssef – The seat of knowledge and intellect, once home to scholars, poets and the city's elite. Here, education and artistry flourished, leaving its legacy through its historic madrasa and noble residences.

Eastern Medina – Where artisans have shaped the identity of the city for centuries. From leather tanners to woodworkers, this quarter embodies the mastery of Moroccan craftsmanship passed down through generations.

Koutoubia Mosque – The towering symbol of spirituality and power, guiding the faithful and standing as a reminder of Marrakech’s deep connection to both faith and governance.

These weren’t isolated functions — they formed a sacred order. Through hikayat, Morocco’s oral storytelling tradition, this order is reanimated at each stop, anchored by narrative and memory, guided by an expert storyteller.

Storytelling Walking Tour in Marrakesh: Discover sacred geometry, legends & tea in the medina.

The exact meeting point will be shared after the booking. Chat with Zouhair to confirm details of the location. 

Your host, Zouhair Khaznaoui, is a masterful Moroccan storyteller, trained in the traditional art of hikayat—an oral tradition passed down for over a thousand years. With deep roots in Marrakesh’s cultural fabric, they are part of a new generation working to preserve and evolve this tradition for contemporary audiences. Their storytelling isn’t scripted but living, improvised retellings shaped by place, moment, and listener. As you walk through the city’s sacred sites and hidden alleys, your host will share stories that animate Marrakesh’s spiritual, intellectual, and artisanal legacy—offering a rare and unforgettable twist on the typical sightseeing experience.

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. 

Savor a private lunch with estate wines and regional dishes at a boutique winery.

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.

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.

A rhythm of sand, salt, and sky unfolds across three elemental days in the Atacama Desert. This journey takes you from grounded, hands-on moments to vast desert panoramas — from the intimacy of a ceramics workshop to the stillness of floating lagoons and the dazzling clarity of the high-altitude night. Designed for travelers drawn to light, texture, and time, it pairs immersive photography with meditative moments of pause. You’ll begin slowly, then ascend into the surreal landscapes of the altiplano before closing among geysers, wetlands, and warm springs.
DAY 1 – CLAY, FLOATING, AND STARS | The journey begins gently in the Salt Mountain Range, where you’ll be welcomed into the adobe studio of a local ceramic artist. Using a clay unique to the region, shaped by ancestral Licarantai traditions, you’ll create your own piece while learning how reverence for Pachamama lives on through craft. In the afternoon, take time on your own to visit nearby Laguna Cejar — a salt-rich lagoon where the water suspends you weightlessly in its mineral grip.
DAY 2 – FLAMINGOS AND THE ALTIPLANO | Wake early to head deep into the Chilean altiplano. This is a day of altitude and scale, where pastel lagoons stretch beneath volcanoes and flamingos lift off from mirror-still water. As you travel across remote salt flats and highland valleys, your guide helps shape the light into story through photography. There’s time to pause, to breathe thinner air, to notice shadow and color shift by the hour. After returning to town, the evening invites rest and reflection after a day spent far above sea level.
DAY 3 – GEYSERS AND WATERS | Before sunrise, set out north toward El Tatio, where steam rises from the earth in silence. As the first light filters across the geysers, capture the raw power of fire meeting water at 4,000 meters. Descend slowly through villages and wetlands, where llamas and flamingos move between grasses and mineral pools. The day ends in thermal springs tucked inside a desert canyon. Let your body ease back into warmth as your time in the Atacama comes to a close.
WHERE TO STAY IN SAN PEDRO DE ATACAMA | Most travelers base themselves in San Pedro, a walkable adobe town that serves as the region’s gateway. For easy access to experiences, stay near the center where pickups and drop-offs are seamless. If you prefer quiet evenings, choose a boutique lodge just outside the plaza. Accommodations range from rustic guesthouses to high-end eco-hotels, many designed with local materials and open-air courtyards perfect for desert stargazing.
GIVE YOURSELF TIME TO ARRIVE | The desert rewards those who arrive slowly. Because much of this journey takes place at altitude, we recommend arriving in San Pedro at least one or two days before your first experience. This extra time helps you adjust to the dry air, shifting light, and elevation changes that define the Atacama. It also offers space to settle into the desert’s rhythm — walk the quiet streets, explore the artisan market, and watch the color drain from the sky in the evenings. Let the landscape meet you gradually.

United States

From ancient medinas to soaring mountain peaks, this 7-day itinerary in Morocco begins in the heart of Marrakesh and ends high in the Atlas Mountains. A full week of cultural contrasts, spiritual traditions and modern art, plus rooftop sunsets, hands-on cooking classes, vibrant souks and quiet trails. Each day balances immersive experiences with time to explore independently, inviting you to see Morocco through the eyes of artists, chefs, guides, and storytellers.

DAY 1 – MEDINA FOUNDATIONS & ROOFTOP VIEWS | Begin in the heart of the old city with The City of Seven Men, a walking tour that weaves together faith, folklore, and Moroccan tea in a local home. In the afternoon, visit Bahia Palace, where carved cedar and painted ceilings reflect Marrakesh’s opulent past. As the sun sets, join Skyline Stories of Marrakesh, a rooftop journey through a thousand years of history. End the night over dinner at Le Foundouk, with views to match the mood.

DAY 2 – FLAVORS & FAITH | Spend your day with Amanda’s Courtyard Kitchen, a warm and generous cooking class in a private home. In the late afternoon, explore the remains of El Badi Palace, once a symbol of Saadian grandeur. As evening falls, experience A Gathering of Sufi Presence—a powerful blend of Hadra music, spiritual storytelling, and traditional Moroccan cuisine. Wrap up with cocktails and city lights at Dardar Rooftop.

DAY 3 – ART & ATMOSPHERE IN GUELIZ | Today is centered in Gueliz, Marrakesh’s contemporary quarter. Begin with Conversation with an Artist, a curated visit to a local gallery and studio meetup. Then discover the legacy of Yves Saint Laurent at the museum, followed by a stroll through the vivid and peaceful Jardin Majorelle in the Psychedelic Mirage story. Pause for shopping, cafés, or a relaxed dinner at Al Fassia, a Gueliz institution run by women.

DAY 4 – HERITAGE & STORYTELLING | Dive deeper into Marrakesh’s medina with A Thousand and One Crafts, a private walk through its hidden workshops and time-honored techniques.

End the day with 1001 Stories in Marrakesh, an intimate evening of storytelling, music, and dinner. L’mida rooftop awaits to close the day with vibrant flavors and city lights.

DAY 5 – SWEETS & STILLNESS | Begin your day with a heartwarming class at Signs & Sweets, where deaf chefs guide you through the art of Moroccan pastry in a café that empowers and connects. In the afternoon, pause for renewal with a traditional hammam ritual—an invitation to slow down and reconnect. End the day with a sensory feast in one of Marrakesh’s most atmospheric restaurants.

DAYS 6–7 – INTO THE ATLAS | Leave the city behind for a two-day trek into the High Atlas Mountains. Your guide leads you from the village of Imlil toward the summit of Mount Toubkal, North Africa’s highest peak. Along the way, you’ll pass Berber hamlets, alpine trails, and star-filled skies. Spend the night in a mountain refuge and descend the next day with the stillness of the mountains etched into your memory.

WHERE TO STAY IN MARRAKESH | Marrakesh offers a wide range of places to stay, but for a more immersive experience, choose a traditional riad tucked inside the Medina. These restored courtyard homes combine intimacy, beauty, and local hospitality — many just steps from the city’s main sites. For more space and calm, Gueliz and Hivernage offer boutique hotels and stylish guesthouses near gardens, cafés, and galleries. Or opt for a retreat on the city’s edge, where palm groves and desert light invite pause.

Marrakesh & the Atlas Way

7 days in Morocco from Marrakesh with an itinerary that blends medina life, culture and mountains.

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.

Algarve’s Crafts, Land and Sea

4-day itinerary in Algarve merging social impact with craft, coastal beauty, and living traditions.

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.

Spain

Seville in Shadow and Light

5 days in Seville exploring flamenco, palaces, toro bravo heritage, Triana, and the Cathedral.

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

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

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

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

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

WHERE TO STAY IN ATHENS | When it comes to where to stay, Athens offers neighborhoods for every travel style. Plaka is charming and close to ancient sites, while Psyrri and Exarchia are full of life, street art, and cafés. For a quieter stay with Acropolis views, Koukaki is a great base.

Athens in Three Acts

3 days in Athens exploring art, cuisine, the acropolis of Athens, Greek traditions, and rebetiko.

Istanbul is a city best experienced slowly, not rushed. It invites you to walk its streets, savor its flavors, and absorb its atmosphere without rushing through. This five-day itinerary offers an immersive exploration of Istanbul through its food, history, art, and daily life. Each day thoughtfully combines two guided experiences with ample time to explore on your own. From iconic landmarks to bustling local markets and engaging workshops, you’ll see Istanbul from different angles, including its history, creativity, and daily culture.

DAY 1 – GRAND BAZAAR, SULTANAHMET, AND GOLD LEAF ART | Begin your day with a guided breakfast tour around the Grand Bazaar, just as the city stirs to life. Taste traditional Turkish pastries and street foods while learning about local culinary traditions and merchant life. Afterward, head to Sultan Ahmet Park to admire the iconic views of Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. In the afternoon, immerse yourself in the delicate art of tezhip by joining a gold leaf workshop with a local artist.

DAY 2 – THE OLD CITY AND TURKISH WINE | Start with a walking tour through the historic center of Constantinople. You’ll visit ancient cisterns, churches, and hear stories that shaped the city. After lunch, enjoy a slower pace. In the early evening, take part in a wine tasting and learn about the different wine regions and grapes of Türkiye.

DAY 3 – CITY LEGENDS AND A RAKI NIGHT | Today’s tour focuses on myths and legends. You’ll hear about saints, sultans, rebels, and writers as you walk through neighborhoods rich in stories. The afternoon is free to explore. At night, sit down to a rakı dinner in a local tavern, where food and conversation come together in a lively setting.

DAY 4 – FOOD, BOATS, AND SHADOW PUPPETS | Spend the day discovering Istanbul through its food. Visit the Spice Bazaar, then take a ferry to the Asian side, where you’ll continue by minibus and taste dishes in local markets. In the afternoon, join a traditional Karagöz shadow puppetry workshop and learn about this centuries-old art form.

DAY 5 – SUNRISE VIEWS AND A SPICE-FILLED FAREWELL | Start your day with a sunrise photography walk along Galata Bridge. As the city begins to stir, you’ll capture fishermen, ferries, and minarets in the morning light. After the walk, enjoy a quiet coffee or light bite nearby and soak in your final hours in Istanbul. In the early afternoon, take part in a guided tasting experience focused on Turkey’s spice culture. Through blind tastings, mezze pairings, and regional wines, you’ll explore the rich flavors that shaped the country’s cuisine and close your trip on a delicious note.

WHERE TO STAY IN ISTANBUL | Stay in Karaköy or Cihangir if you want to be central and close to cafés and galleries. For walking access to the monuments, choose Sultanahmet. If you prefer a quieter, local vibe, Moda on the Asian side is a great option.

Istanbul Through the Senses

5 days in Istanbul with guided tours, unique activities to do, local markets, and art workshops.

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.
