This is a scenic day hike across the Kik Plateau, perched at approximately 1,800 meters in the High Atlas Mountains. The trek offers sweeping views over terraced farmland, Lake Takerkoust, and distant peaks, including Mount Toubkal. 

Starting from Asni, the route winds through traditional Berber villages built from earth and stone, where daily life continues much as it has for generations. Along the way, you’ll stop for tea with a local family and enjoy a picnic lunch in the heart of the plateau, surrounded by olive groves and open sky.

This hike is ideal for those who’ve already seen the classic Atlas mountain routes and want to explore the landscape further while engaging with the local communities. 

The walk takes 5-6 hours with stops and is best done in spring or autumn, when the plateau is green and the light is sharp. Though not technically difficult, there are some steady inclines and exposed terrain, so good walking shoes and sun protection are recommended.

The Kik Plateau offers an expansive, open landscape that contrasts with the steeper, more rugged trails of the central High Atlas. Its distinctive limestone outcroppings and gently undulating terrain give you a different kind of hiking experience—one defined by wide horizons and silence. From the plateau, you can take in panoramic views that stretch across the Haouz plains, Lake Takerkoust and the snow-capped peaks of the High Atlas.

You’ll walk through traditional Berber villages where adobe homes blend into the hillsides, and farming continues as it has for generations. Because the area sees fewer visitors than other Atlas trails, you’ll engage more directly with both the landscape and the people who live here. Spring is especially vibrant, with wildflowers and green pastures creating a vivid contrast to the dry plains below.

Also, Kik Plateau's accessibility from Marrakech makes it ideal for those seeking a day hike that combines natural beauty, cultural immersion and tranquility.

Chile

This full-day experience immerses you in the Atacama's most dramatic scenery: its geysers, high-altitude wetlands, and volcanic highlands. Unlike most tours to El Tatio (Los Géisers del Tatio) which depart before dawn, Valeria's experience takes place once the crowds have thinned and the late-morning light draws out the remarkable hues of the minerals. A naturalist guide with a keen knowledge of geology, Valeria dives deep into this phenomenal region of geysers, fumaroles, and mud pools before leading you on a gentle hike (at 4,200 m.a.s.l.).

The excursion continues at the rarely-visited Río Blanco Wetland (Humedal de Río Blanco). Fed by a river carrying meltwater from the Andes, this green corridor — popular with vicuñas and flamingoes — is a shock amid the arid landscape and a particular delight for wildlife lovers. As you make your way back down to San Pedro, you will call at the Machuca and Putana wetlands and reflect on these diverse ecosystems in the Atacama Northern Highlands.

Everyone knows about the Tatio Geysers, and everyone wishes to witness the world's highest geothermal field as part of their Altiplano safari. But Valeria's experience goes beyond the typical sightseeing tour; she's taking you off-piste and showing you there's more than vapor. Arriving after the sunrise show, you are able to appreciate the colors of the mineral deposits, the bubbling mud pools, and the geyser vents, which are tricky to see in the low light of dawn. After wandering around the main geothermal system, Valeria will guide you to a lesser-known mud geyser. At the Río Blanco Wetland, you will linger over one of the Atacama's most biodiverse ecosystems and keep one eye trained for its wildlife, both migratory and resident.

Valeria's tour is designed for fellow wildlife lovers, photographers, and travelers who wish to experience the Atacama Desert's greatest highlights (and best-kept secrets) with fewer crowds, increased fauna, at a slower pace, and with the best light.

Mexico

This day-long tour takes travelers to Magdalena de Kino, Sonora—a historic pilgrimage town with deep cultural and spiritual significance. You’ll explore the legacy of Father Eusebio Francisco Kino, Jesuit missionary, explorer, and advocate for Indigenous communities.

You’ll visit his resting place, explore mission-era churches, and learn how the region’s Indigenous and colonial histories continue to shape the cultural fabric of northern Mexico. The tour follows historic routes—many originally carved by Indigenous peoples and later adopted by missionaries and settlers.

Through guided interpretation, conversations with residents, and time spent in plazas, chapels, and markets, you’ll gain a vivid sense of life in a Mexican border town. You'll also explore the surrounding Sonoran Desert, home to the iconic saguaro cactus.

Included is a relaxed lunch featuring regional dishes and drinks—an opportunity to enjoy Sonoran flavors and reflect on what you’ve seen and learned through the day.

This experience stands out for its intimate, cross-cultural approach to one of the most historically rich towns in northern Mexico. It blends historical insight with lived experience in a place where faith, identity, and frontier history still shape daily life.

Rather than a passive sightseeing tour, you’ll engage deeply—with the guides and residents, through the storytelling, conversation and reflection. Stops at family-run eateries and artisan shops add local flavor and texture, grounding the history in everyday life.

Magdalena is the terminus of a centuries-old pilgrimage route. Pilgrims from across the region travel here each year to “pagar la manda”—a promise fulfilled through a 60-mile journey to visit the reclining statue of Saint Francis Xavier. The monumental plaza and chapel serve as the final destination for thousands of walkers moved by devotion and tradition.

This is about human connection to place, past, and the sacred continuity of life in the Sonoran borderlands.

This half-day experience brings you into the heart of Magdalena de Kino, a town shaped by centuries of movement, migration, and devotion. After the pickup from your Hermosillo hotel, our journey begins with a 1.5–2 hour drive from Hermosillo through Sonora’s desert terrain. Along the way, your bilingual hosts—locals with deep roots in the borderlands—offer context on the region’s unique history, cultural intersections, and sacred geography.

Once in Magdalena, you’ll explore the town alongside a local resident, visiting key sites that reveal how colonial, Indigenous, and modern influences have shaped life here. The walk is not scripted—it’s a guided conversation, shaped by lived experience, oral tradition, and place-based storytelling. With your hosts translating and deepening the dialogue, you’ll come away with a more grounded understanding of what it means to live, move, and belong in a border town.

This experience offers something many borderland narratives don’t: nuance. It’s not a museum tour or history lecture—it’s an encounter with a living culture, told by the people who inhabit it every day. Your hosts draw from historical records, Indigenous stories, and personal experience to share Magdalena’s layered identity as a place of pilgrimage, passage, and political memory.

What sets this apart is its combination of scholarly insight and local authenticity. You’ll walk paths few tourists know, hear stories not found in guidebooks, and engage with bilingual interpretation that bridges cultures. Rather than reduce the border to a dividing line, this experience shows it as a connective space—one where cultures, beliefs, and people have long intersected.

Drive from Hermosillo and Cultural Walk Through Magdalena’s Layered Borderland Identity

The Culture in a Border Town

This stage of your journey invites you deeper into Magdalena’s cultural soul—through food, art, and architecture. As you walk the town with your hosts, you’ll be introduced to local woodworking traditions and architectural details that blend Indigenous and Spanish colonial aesthetics. You’ll visit sites where vibrant religious murals tell the story of Father Kino’s influence and the continuing role of Catholicism in the region.

Midday, you’ll sit down for a regional lunch, enjoying dishes that reflect Sonora’s distinct culinary heritage. Your hosts will explain the ingredients and influences behind what you’re tasting, creating a fuller appreciation for how culture, history, and food intersect in the borderlands.

After a day rich in flavor and storytelling, you’ll return to Hermosillo with new insights—and a deeper understanding of the living traditions that define this place.

This experience stands out for its integration of the sensory and the historical—connecting artistic expression and culinary heritage with a layered understanding of place. While many travelers pass through border towns without context, here you’ll be immersed in the textures that shape Sonoran identity: from hand-painted murals to ancestral recipes passed down through generations.

The murals you’ll encounter are living records of community, faith, and resistance. Your hosts—deeply embedded in the region—provide bilingual context and thoughtful interpretation, linking art, food, and landscape to the broader borderlands story. You'll see little-known landmarks, oral history sites, and community spaces that most travelers never access.

It’s a full-circle close to your day in Magdalena: seeing, tasting, and understanding a place often overlooked, but always deeply expressive.

Walking Tour in Magdalena: Explore religious murals and enjoy regional Sonoran cuisine.

Sonoran Arts and Cuisine

The walking tour in Magdalena focuses on Father Eusebio Francisco Kino, the Italian Jesuit missionary whose legacy shaped both Sonora and Arizona. As you walk through the town bearing his name, your bilingual hosts will share the story of his life and work in the 17th and 18th centuries. You'll visit the mausoleum built in his honor — where his remains are publicly viewable — and explore the missions, agricultural systems, and values he left behind.

This stage also offers context for how Catholicism shaped the region, not only through religion, but also through shifts in land use, architecture, and community dynamics. You'll learn how Kino’s vision stood apart from others of his time — particularly his advocacy for Indigenous dignity and resistance to forced labor. Whether you come with a historical interest, spiritual curiosity, or cultural questions, this experience will give you an informed, on-the-ground perspective.

This experience invites you to explore the life of Father Kino not through textbook summaries, but through physical spaces, preserved oral histories, and the lived memory of the town named in his honor. Your hosts combine archival knowledge with local storytelling to reveal how one man’s legacy continues to influence borderland identity today.

What makes this experience distinct is its layered approach to Catholic influence—placing missionary activity in dialogue with Indigenous histories and contemporary perspectives. You’ll engage with the built environment and spiritual landmarks that shaped regional values. Unlike conventional church tours, this walk weaves together religious, cultural, and political threads, helping you see how Catholicism remains embedded in the social fabric of the Sonoran desert and the borderlands.

Originally from Minnesota, multimedia artist Shannon McEvoy studied in Viña del Mar in 2010. The country and its people left a lasting impression on her, and she quickly returned after graduation. Inspired by the street art of Valparaíso, she incorporated Chilean muralism into her undergraduate Honors Thesis and later became a muralist herself.

Shannon has lived in Chile for over 10 years, where she teaches English and creates murals—though her talents extend far beyond. She also paints, sketches, makes ceramics and jewelry, designs her own clothes, and experiments with photography. As an artistic director, she has overseen several monumental public art installations in Santiago and beyond.

Passionate about both art and language, Shannon sees them as powerful tools for self-expression and meaningful connection. Bilingual in English and Spanish, she also speaks basic Portuguese.

This 9-day journey moves slowly, by design. It winds northward from Dubrovnik’s stone alleys to Trieste’s borderland boulevards—passing through the shifting light of the Adriatic, Roman ruins, and café-lined riverbanks. It’s a route for those who want to feel where they are, not just see it.

You begin in Dubrovnik, not just walking its walls but seeing it with new eyes—through a local archaeologist’s lens, then from a boat at sunset, where the city turns gold against the sea. In Split, Diocletian’s Palace is less a monument than a lived-in maze, full of locals and light. The journey pauses briefly in Trogir—an island town where everything slows naturally—and optionally detours into Istria for hill towns, truffle hunting, and wine trails.

Inland, Plitvice Lakes shifts the tone again. Here, you follow paths through mist and waterfalls, letting the natural rhythm reset your pace. It’s not just a break between cities; it’s a space to recalibrate.

Ljubljana greets you with quiet confidence. A walkable capital, it pairs Baroque charm with bold design and street art. You’ll move from riverbanks to castle views to the experimental district of Metelkova, all at a pace that invites observation.

You end in Trieste, where languages and histories mingle. This last chapter offers options—Karst wine tastings, Austro-Italian cafés, or a final walk along the sea. It’s a soft landing, full of contrasts and continuity.

This is a trip not stitched together by highlights, but shaped by transitions—each place flowing into the next, each experience deepened by what came before. Its travel made deliberate.

Croatia

Slowly, From Croatia to Italy

9-day itinerary through Croatia, Slovenia & Italy — photo walks, coastlines, culture, historic towns

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.

Seville is your entry point—fly in and settle into a city where architecture, energy, and rhythm shape the streets. Visit the Alcázar, take a masterclass in flamenco’s quieter meanings, and explore hidden workshops in Triana. | Cádiz follows, and with it, the feeling of arrival into a deeper past. Here, you’ll walk seaside ramparts, taste freshly caught fish in local markets, and join locals for a casual tapas crawl. Don’t miss the Carnival, if your timing aligns. | Ronda offers slower breath and cliffside drama. With its sweeping views and old-world charm, this is the perfect place for a horseback ride, a visit to a family-run bodega, or a hike into the surrounding countryside. | Málaga, long overlooked, now leads with contemporary art and bold cuisine. | Granada, your final stop, gathers everything—Islamic architecture, Jewish heritage, Spanish tradition. The Alhambra is a must, but so are the Albaicín’s narrow alleys and the city’s soulful street corners.

Trains run between some major cities, but not all. To follow this route with ease, we recommend car rentals or arranged transfers between accommodations. Begin in Seville and fly out from Málaga.

Cádiz as a place of convergence: María José was born and raised in Cádiz, and her eyes sparkle with pride and nostalgia as she describes this ancient city where history, culture, and the sea converge. It’s a place where stories of Phoenician sailors, Roman conquerors, and Moorish poets are continually retold. Reflecting on her childhood, she recalls the close-knit neighborhood where people relied on one another. Carnival—an annual February tradition—was central. Lucía remembers it too; her grandmother was a seamstress who hand-stitched elaborate costumes each year. 

The essence of Andalusia, María José says, is best experienced not through spectacles, but through shared moments. Conversations in taverns. Crafts passed down through generations. Hospitality that’s unforced and real. Strangers are often welcomed like friends—invited into homes, kitchens, or village fiestas. Here, you’re never just an observer.

There’s growing interest in pairing cultural travel with nature, wellness, and gastronomy. Think horseback safaris, slow treks, and olive oil tastings under ancient trees. For María José and Lucía, true luxury is about access to spaces and stories that are otherwise closed to tourists: a private sherry tasting in a centuries-old bodega, a sunset boat ride in Doñana, or a morning spent with artisans in a whitewashed village. This is the Andalusia they want travelers to know.

Andalusia: Seville to Granada

Andalusia itinerary 10 days with Seville, Cádiz, Ronda, Málaga, Granada, heritage and cuisine.

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.

Seville in Shadow and Light

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

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.
