This isn't just about admiring street art—it's about stepping into the heart of Athens' creative pulse, guided by two passionate locals who live and breathe the city’s artistic scene. Kalliopi and Thomas, a dynamic duo united by their love for art and urban exploration, invite you to see Athens through their eyes—far beyond the typical postcard views.

Raised in opposite suburbs and now calling the historic district of Kerameikos home, they’ve spent years uncovering the stories, inspirations, and evolving techniques behind Athens' mesmerizing murals and graffiti. Their deep connection to the city and its art gives you a rare insider’s perspective, blending history, culture, and personal anecdotes into every stop along the way.

You'll meet Kalliopi at Kerameikos Metro Station, Exit Gazi.

Kalliopi and Thomas are a dynamic duo passionate about Athens, art, and urban exploration. Raised in opposite suburbs, fate brought them together, and now they call the historic district of Kerameikos home. Their journey into street art and creative expression started years ago and has flourished, especially since moving to downtown Athens.

They actively promote and support local artists, organize street art festivals, and have curated urban transformations by selecting artists and murals for key city spaces. Recently, they opened a creative hub to host events dedicated to art, fostering a vibrant community of creators.

The old Spanish saying “Put me in the sun and give me wine and ham!” reveals just how deeply Iberian ham is woven into the country’s diet and culture. These rich, paper-thin slices of cured pork are a tapas essential — but there’s far more to them than meets the eye.

In this experience, you’ll discover that ham carving isn’t just a technique — it’s an art form, practiced with care and reverence. At a family-run business, master carvers will demonstrate how each cut affects the flavor, texture, and aroma. As they work with precision and passion, they’ll explain the different parts of the ham and the history and tradition behind it.

Your expert host will explain why true Iberian ham can only be produced in Spain, highlight its distinctive characteristics, and explore the different quality levels, from natural grain-fed ham to the prized 100% Iberian acorn-fed ham — and why each deserves its place on the plate.

This experience takes place in a family business in Madrid’s historic Austrias neighborhood. It’s run by the third generation of the Arroyo family, whose grandfather founded the business 65 years ago. They still source their jamón ibérico from the same farms — small producers who raise black Iberian pigs on oak-covered dehesa. The slow, natural process gives the ham its marbled texture and depth of flavor. 

Iberian ham has been part of Spanish culinary tradition for over 2,000 years. In this experience, you’ll learn how the carving itself becomes a craft — it takes years to learn how to follow the grain, anticipate the cut, and honor every part of the ham. 

For Fernwayer guests, the family offers a deeper encounter with Spain’s cured traditions. A master carver shares the secrets of slicing, showing how much of the experience lives in the cut itself. You’ll taste five cuts of jamón and five aged cheeses. The wine pairings evoke the regions that shape them.

You'll be provided with all the necesary equipment.
Just bring your curiosity and a sense of adventure. 

You will meet at the family business, Mercado Jamón Ibérico, at Calle Mayor 80, 28013, in Madrid's Austria barrio.

Each tasting is led by a master carver — a seasoned professional trained in the traditions of Iberian ham. Part of the third generation of the Arroyo family, your host brings years of experience and deep knowledge to the table. They’ll guide you through the anatomy of the ham, showing how each cut reveals something different in texture, aroma, and flavor. It’s not just a skill, but a form of storytelling — one slice at a time.

As you watch the fire dance, toast local wines, and connect with the people who call this remarkable place home, your senses will come alive. The tempo of this rural culinary experience is relaxed, intimate, and real. The meal honors time, place, and shared tradition.

As the icing on the cake, Julieta is also a professional photographer. She’ll help you capture high-quality images of the landscapes—souvenirs that, along with the memories, will last long after the day ends.

Visit family-run wineries and spend time with local producers, sharing stories over a homemade lunch. Return to Porto in the late afternoon, with time for a final stroll before departing the following day.
WHERE TO STAY IN MADRID AND PORTO | In Madrid, staying near Barrio de las Letras or the historic center offers easy access to walking tours, cultural neighborhoods, and evenings out while remaining calm at night. In Porto, riverside areas or elevated districts overlooking the Douro balance views, design-forward hotels, and proximity to the old town. Both cities reward walkable locations that emphasize atmosphere and sense of place.

Madrid to Porto Between Lands

A road trip itinerary from Madrid to Porto via Toledo and Galicia, blending culture, drives, locals.

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.
