This 4-hour walking tour in Buenos Aires focuses on three of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods: Recoleta, Retiro, and San Telmo. While renowned landmarks shape the route, it’s the quiet treasures only locals know that form the heart of this experience. You'll also hear how each neighborhood reflects a different chapter in Buenos Aires’ social and architectural history.

Starting in Recoleta, you’ll explore the aristocratic architecture and elegant boutiques of Alvear Avenue before strolling along artistic Arroyo Street, known for its galleries. In Retiro, you’ll pause at Plaza San Martín before heading south. Once in San Telmo, you’ll be immersed in its bohemian ambiance while visiting a conventillo (traditional tenement) and Plaza Dorrego. On Sundays, you’ll encounter the San Telmo Market in full swing; at other times, the barrio offers rich architecture and a chance to browse antique shops.

The experience includes a stop to taste Argentine mate (a caffeinated tea) and empanadas.

This experience is led by a local born and raised in Buenos Aires. Unlike traditional tours, it’s not just about delivering historical facts—it’s about sharing the rich culture and vibrant identity of the city. Your host’s warm and friendly nature ensures that every traveler feels welcome and part of the journey. 

Recoleta reveals the legacy of Argentina’s aristocracy, while Retiro’s contrast of grandeur and grit tells a story of shifting power. In San Telmo, your guide will share how immigrant communities shaped the area’s tango, food, and architecture into the cultural hub it remains today. You'll also pass bookstores, murals and cafés that define daily Porteño life.

The experience is interactive and engaging, combining travel by bus and on foot through the streets of Buenos Aires. Along the way, you’ll discuss everything from history to local traditions. Travelers are encouraged to ask questions, share reflections, and fully immerse themselves in the city’s daily life and culture.

Mexico

Explore Teotihuacan in a thoughtful early-morning, private tour to Mexico’s iconic pyramids. Designed for comfort and connection, this exclusive day trip from Mexico City begins with hotel pickup, coffee, and a light snack before arriving early to beat the crowds and heat.

Teotihuacan, an ancient Mesoamerican city, is one of Mexico’s most revered heritage sites. Its pyramids and ceremonial avenues still echo with the presence of the pre-Columbian civilizations who built them. You'll visit Teotihuacan’s major landmarks—including the Pyramid of the Sun, the Avenue of the Dead, and the Temple of the Feathered Serpent—on foot or with short drives between sections to reduce fatigue and maximize what you see.

Along the way, your guide, an expert in art history and archaeology, will share stories that bring the cultural site’s structures, myths, and meaning to life. After exploring the site, you’ll enjoy a relaxed Mexican brunch—tacos or quesadillas—before returning to Mexico City.

This thoughtfully curated version of the Teotihuacan experience offers a rare balance of comfort, ease, and depth. Early morning access ensures a relaxed visit without crowds, while a flexible format—combining walking and short drives—lets you explore without fatigue and make the most of your time at the site.

Teotihuacan, once the largest city in the Americas, is home to some of the most iconic structures in Mesoamerica, including the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, and the Temple of the Feathered Serpent. Its vast scale and complex history can be overwhelming, but this approach makes it both engaging and accessible. 

Led by art historians with a gift for storytelling, the tour brings the city’s mysteries into focus. You'll explore its origins, the myths surrounding its rise, theories of its decline, and the spiritual legacy that continues to inspire awe today—all delivered with clarity and insight in an intimate, conversational tone that encourages curiosity and connection.

You'll explore the Ciudadela and step inside the Temple of Quetzalcoatl—one of the most fascinating and symbolic pyramids in Teotihuacan.

Your hosts connect the dots—architecture, mythology, and the latest discoveries—to help you see this ancient city with clarity and depth. You’ll come away with a clear sense of what Teotihuacan was, why it mattered, and how it shaped the civilizations that followed.

After a short drive, you’ll arrive at Teotihuacan’s sacred axis—home to the Pyramid of the Sun, one of the largest in the world, and the Pyramid of the Moon, perfectly aligned with the mountains behind it. You’ll walk through the Quetzalpapálotl Palace, where carved pillars and ancient murals hint at the lives of priests and rulers who once shaped this vast city.

By cutting the long walk, you get straight to Teotihuacan’s most iconic structures—refreshed and ready to take it all in. At the ceremonial core of the city, the Pyramid of the Sun rises 65 meters high, built to align with the setting sun on key dates. The Pyramid of the Moon frames the Avenue of the Dead and mirrors the sacred mountain beyond. The pyramids were engineered to align with the cosmos, and the palace still holds stories in its murals and stonework. With clear, thoughtful guidance, you'll connect architecture, myth, and meaning—no dry lectures, just real insight.

Morocco

Explore life above the Blue City on this full-day trip into Chefchaouen’s surrounding mountains. Your day begins at the Spanish Mosque, then set out for a 3-hour hike through peaceful trails at the edge of the Rif Mountains. The walk leads to Mustafa’s family’s farmhouse, which offers sweeping views of the city below.

Here, you’ll learn how the family lives off the land — growing vegetables, baking bread in a clay oven, collecting spring water, and maintaining traditional farming practices. After accompanying their routines, you’ll share a homemade meal, hearing stories from three different generations. As the day winds down, watch the sun set over Chefchaouen’s blue rooftops, then witness the hills slowly shift into night, lit by the soft, golden glow of the city below.

This experience is ideal for those seeking a deeper understanding of Morocco’s rural mountain life, offering a glimpse into daily traditions and landscapes just beyond the city’s edge.

While many visit Chefchaouen for its blue-painted walls and iconic photos, few step beyond the city to understand who lives here and how. This experience offers a rare chance to see what’s beyond that postcard image. Standing above the mountains, you’ll gain an entirely different perspective on the landscape and the people who have lived here for generations.

Mustafa and his family open their home in a way few travelers ever experience. You’ll engage directly with them, ask questions, and take part in the daily practices that support their self-sufficient way of life—growing food, baking Beldi bread, and collecting water. Mustafa’s wife will prepare a homemade meal for you using locally harvested ingredients to showcase the region’s diverse culinary traditions. More than a guest, you’ll feel like a true member of a Moroccan family taking part in their routines and embracing their slow-paced lifestyle, leaving you with memories far deeper than any photo.

Guests meet Mustafa at the Hôtel Loubar at the foot of the mountain before setting off on a hike.


The meeting point at Hôtel Loubar sits at a natural threshold, perched just above Chefchaouen with clear views over the city, yet still beneath the village where Mustafa and his family live. It’s a quiet spot at the foot of the mountain you’ll soon hike, offering a striking sense of transition. From here, you can see both where you’ve come from and where you’re headed—framing the day ahead with perspective, purpose, and a connection to both the city below and the rural life above.

Meet Mustafa in front of Hôtel Loubar and prepare for your hiking adventure.

Meet Mustafa

During the hike, you’ll learn about the history of Chefchaouen while taking in sweeping views of the mountains that cradle the city.

The walk also offers insight into the culture of the Jebala, the mountain people whose traditions are deeply rooted in this landscape.

This experience offers a rare and authentic immersion into the cultural and historical heart of Chefchaouen. As you hike through the stunning mountain landscape, you’ll gain meaningful insight into the traditions and daily life of the Jebala people—communities who have lived in these hills for generations.

A visit to ancient olive trees, some over 200 years old, deepens your connection to the region’s agricultural roots. The experience blends natural beauty with hands-on cultural exchange: you’ll cook traditional Moroccan dishes alongside your hosts and learn to make Beldi bread in a clay oven. It’s a day that goes far beyond sightseeing—one that invites you to truly live, even briefly, within the rhythms of rural mountain life.

Immerse yourself in Chefchaouen's culture, history, and stunning landscapes.

Hike in the Village

Join a cooking class with a Moroccan family, where you’ll prepare dinner together while sharing stories and cultural insights. This experience offers a chance to discover the traditional mud oven—how it’s made and used—and see how bread is baked the Moroccan way.

After the bread, you’ll learn to prepare a classic Moroccan tajine, a flavorful slow-cooked dish. Throughout the class, you’ll enjoy authentic Moroccan tea, enhancing the warm and inviting atmosphere.

Additionally, you’ll explore what Mustafa produces on his farm, gaining insight into local ingredients and agricultural practices. This hands-on experience not only teaches you about Moroccan cuisine but also immerses you in the rich traditions and hospitality of Moroccan culture. It’s a unique opportunity to connect with local customs, enjoy delicious food, and create lasting memories with your hosts.

Travelers will engage directly with a local family, fostering personal connections through shared cooking and storytelling.

France

Step into Luiz’s apartment, a classic Parisian home where a private chef opens his door and the stove is already warm. Brazilian by origin and Parisian by choice, chef Luiz welcomes you like an old friend: a glass of wine in hand, conversation flowing easily. Trained in French cuisine and pâtisserie, he explains ingredients and techniques with an easy mix of stories and science from his chemical engineering background, while you join him in the kitchen. 

Your brunch comes together while you chat -- two starters, a salad, a main dish, and a selection of French desserts, a menu created exclusively for Fernwayer. When the plates are ready, you sit together in the living room to eat, talk, sip a good wine, and linger a little longer. This experience is a true Paris moment shaped by generosity, curiosity, and the pleasure of sharing. It’s a glimpse into Luiz’s Paris, where his training, travels, and warmth come together around a home-cooked meal.

What makes this experience unique is Luiz. His creativity and generosity shape everything — from the welcome at the door to the last sip of wine. A professional chef, he brings an open and curious outlook to every moment. His curiosity, forged by years of travel across dozens of countries, meets the discipline of his training in French cuisine and pâtisserie. Together you prepare a classically French meal, learning its rhythms and techniques as you go. You see technique up close at the stove, understand why it works, and feel the difference in each bite.

Conversation can roam from ingredient lore and the best way to prepare pâte à choux to life in his neighborhood, politics in France, and stories from his years as a teacher. By the time you reach dessert, it feels less like a meal and more like a window into a life — the rare chance to sit at a real table in a Paris home — a personal encounter with Paris, seen through the skills, stories, and warmth of your host.

Discover the rich history and stunning architecture of five of Guadalajara’s oldest churches, each built in the 16th century and still standing as active places of worship, on this private tour. 

From the grand cathedral in Guadalajara to lesser-known chapels tucked into quiet corners of the historic center. Revealing how religion, architecture, and politics shaped the city, this experience is a must do in Guadalajara. Wander through centuries-old cathedrals, admire intricate colonial-era details, and uncover the fascinating stories behind each sacred landmark. 

You’ll see how indigenous and European styles merged in stone, wood, and ornament, and how the Church’s influence extended far beyond the altar. 

You’ll pause for a coffee or soft drink and a snack typical to the region, chosen by your host for both flavor and cultural relevance. The tour closes in the Analco district with a scoop of artisan ice cream from a long-standing local vendor.

This is a vivid look at the foundations—spiritual and architectural—of Guadalajara history. Your guide, a historian, uses old photographs, architectural detail, and storytelling to bring each space into focus. These five churches are physical records of Spanish colonization, Catholic expansion, and indigenous adaptation. Their walls hold artistic and material histories that predate the city's civic center. Each stop shows how architecture reflects belief, authority, and ritual in post-conquest Mexico.

These churches are windows into another time. Walking among them, you feel the weight of history underfoot. You'll uncover how the Catholic Church shaped Mexico’s political landscape, how indigenous and European styles blended to create the city's architectural heritage, and how details—mudéjar ceilings, worn stone steps, frescoes, wood altars—evolved across centuries.

Designed for travelers drawn to history, religious art, and the layered life of cities, this is a context-rich tour.

Greece

Nestled in the heart of Santorini’s charming Megalochori village, this immersive experience takes place in a restored 1950s cave house—dug into volcanic rock and full of character. Hosts Paula and George welcome you into their “stone kitchen” to roll up your sleeves and take part in a hands-on preparation of a classic Greek feast, side by side with your hosts.

As the aromas of your creations fill the air, the session culminates in a communal meal enjoyed under a pergola. The flavors of your labor are paired with local wines, creating connections and unforgettable memories. Paula and George created this experience as a way to bring people together—strangers at the start, cooking like family by the end.

This is a rare opportunity to cook in a traditional cave house in Santorini—a space that reflects the island’s architecture and way of life.

Paula introduces each dish, offering thoughtful insights into Greek culinary traditions and local ingredients.

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

A luminous journey across water and stone, this five-day itinerary invites you to slow down and savor Venice through the lens of art, history, and quiet beauty. Blending guided tours with self-led explorations, it’s designed for the traveler who seeks meaning in details — reflections on the canals, the hush of palazzos, the rhythm of walking, and the stories behind each façade. From golden mornings in Dorsoduro to early light in Burano, this itinerary balances movement and stillness, guiding you through the city’s most evocative moments.

DAY 1 – PIAZZA AND PALACES | The journey begins with a private photoshoot guided by a local photographer, capturing your silhouette against the soft light of bridges and canals. In the afternoon, you’ll step into Piazza San Marco and explore the Basilica at your own pace before heading to the Doge’s Palace for a self-led visit through grand chambers and secret passages. The city’s layered history sets the tone for a slow, immersive arrival.

DAY 2 – ART AND WATERLINES | You’ll start the day with a guided walking tour of Dorsoduro, a neighborhood where artists’ studios and gondola yards share quiet lanes with shaded piazzas. In the afternoon, a self-led visit to the Gallerie dell’Accademia invites contemplation among Venetian masters. As the sun dips low, a guided boat tour leads you into the lagoon, where the colors of the city shift and settle into still water and sky.

DAY 3 – HIDDEN ISLANDS | The morning opens with a guided boat tour to far reaches of the lagoon, where wild gardens, quiet docks, and local stories unfold beyond the well-trodden paths. After returning to Venice, the afternoon brings a visit to Ca’ d’Oro, whose lacy Gothic façade still hints at its gilded past. This is a day shaped by contrasts: untouched nature and ornate palaces, silence and shimmer.

DAY 4 – EARLY VENICE | You’ll rise early to join a local photographer for a guided photo walk through Venice in its quietest hours — when soft light filters through the city. After a long break, the evening continues with a self-led visit to Teatro La Fenice, where velvet seats and golden balconies hold centuries of drama and renewal. It’s a day for observing beauty in quiet, fleeting moments.

DAY 5 – BURANO AND THE VINEYARD | The final day takes you beyond Venice to Burano. With a fisherman as your guide, you’ll explore hidden corners of the lagoon by boat before reaching a secluded vineyard island for an experience shaped by tradition, salt air, and handmade wine. It’s a gentle farewell to the floating world — where time bends around water, craft, and conversation.

Travelers seeking an artistic, design-forward atmosphere will appreciate hotels along the Zattere or near Campo San Barnaba.

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.

The Andalusian Centre of Contemporary Art (CAAC), situated in the historically rich Monastery of Santa Maria de las Cuevas on the Isla de la Cartuja in Seville, is a premier institution for contemporary art in Andalusia. Established in February 1990, the CAAC aims to foster research, conservation, promotion, and dissemination of contemporary art. The transformation of the former Carthusian monastery into the CAAC's headquarters in 1997 marked a significant development in its mission, blending the rich heritage of the site with the dynamism of contemporary artistic expressions​​. Why visit?
1. The CAAC houses a diverse collection that spans artistic trends from the mid-20th century to the present, featuring works by notable artists such as Luis Gordillo, Candida Höfer, and Louise Bourgeois.
2. The Monastery of Santa Maria de las Cuevas, where the CAAC is located, offers visitors not just art but a journey through history. The monastery, with its Mudéjar architecture, showcases the evolution from a religious site to a pottery factory by Charles Pickman in the 19th century, and finally to a contemporary art centre. This site has hosted Christopher Columbus and was a pivotal location in Seville's ceramic industry​​.
3. The CAAC is known for its engaging exhibitions, such as 'Stoner' by Andra Ursuta and 'Territory' by Giulia Cenci, which creatively utilize the chapel spaces. The centre's series of gallery spaces, surrounded by courtyards and fruit trees, offer a unique setting for experiencing contemporary art​​. The gardens also house ombu trees, believed to have been planted by Hernando Colón, the son of Christopher Columbus​​.
4. The CAAC is a testament to the seamless integration of contemporary art within a historical context. Visit the official CAAC [website](https://www.caac.es/) for information on hours and exhibitions.

Step into the poignant history of Europe's first slave market at Lagos's Slave Market Museum in the Algarve. This museum, housed in a 17th-century building in the historic Praça do Infante D. Henrique square, unveils the grim reality of the slave trade that began in Lagos in the mid-15th century. It’s a place for reflection and understanding of the slave trade's history in Portugal and across the globe. Here you'll discover:
1. Origins of the Slave Trade: The museum traces the history of slavery in Lagos, beginning with the arrival of the first black African slaves in 1444. The slaves were brought from the western coast of Africa, marking the onset of a harrowing epoch in European and African history.
2. Prince Henry the Navigator’s Role: Discover how Prince Henry the Navigator played a crucial role in initiating the slave trade. He set up a trading post off the coast of Mauritania, leading to the shipment of slaves to Lagos and other parts of Europe. The museum highlights his influence and the subsequent expansion of the slave trade under Portuguese dominion.
3. Experiences of the Enslaved: The museum vividly portrays the suffering of the enslaved individuals, from their capture and separation from families to their harsh living conditions. It provides insights into the lives of slaves in Lagos and the Algarve, where they formed a significant part of the population by the 16th century.
4. Building and Its History: The building that houses the museum has its own historical significance. Initially serving as the Royal Overseer's office, it later became the customs house.
Located in the heart of Lagos, the Slave Market Museum is accessible to visitors interested in understanding this critical period of history. The museum employs modern technology to enhance the learning experience, offering electronic notebooks for virtual tours. Admission is charged for entry.
