Carnevale in Mamoiada (February 15 and 17, 2026) immerses you in the rich culture of Sardinia’s festivities. The decorated streets of this ancient village come alive with haunting rhythms of cowbells, hypnotic movements of dancers, and tradition preserved through centuries: it’s a celebration of history, mythology and community.

THIS EXPERIENCE IS LIMITED TO FOUR PARTICIPANTS ON 15 and 17 FEBRUARY, 2026.

You will watch the Mamuthones, cloaked in black sheepskins with grotesque wooden masks, moving in slow, ritualistic dances. Meanwhile, the Issohadores, with vibrant red shirts and white masks, wield lassos to capture the dancers (and spectators!).

Your day includes exploring the local museum to uncover the origins and craftsmanship of these iconic masks, savoring a Sardinian lunch featuring local delicacies, and and gaining exclusive access to the courtyard where Carnevale characters don their costumes and cowbells before joining the parade.

Mamoiada is well connected by car, 
Mamoiada is reachable in one hour and a half  by car from Bosa, and two hours from Cagliari

This experience offers a rare window into authentic Sardinian culture, rooted in ancient agricultural and pagan traditions. The festival’s haunting atmosphere sets it apart, as the Mamuthones, cloaked in dark furs and jangling cowbells, move in deliberate, ritualistic patterns, while the Issohadores, in vivid red and white, dart through the crowd, lassoing onlookers to bestow good luck.

This centuries-old celebration thrives on the active involvement of the local community; each generation ensuring its preservation. As you wander through Mamoiada’s streets, the clang of cowbells, crackle of burning wood, and aroma of local delicacies create a sensory immersion.

Enjoy a Sardinian lunch of cured meats, cheeses, carasau bread, wine and dishes like malloreddus alla campidanese or culurgiones. After the parade, the squares come alive with music and dance, inviting you to join the revelry. Indulge in local sweets, sip on filu ‘e ferru and capture the essence of the day on camera.

Argentina

If you have only one day in Buenos Aires, this is the ultimate experience for an in-depth exploration of the city's principal landmarks and neighborhoods, including the Historic Quarter and San Telmo. With a private guide by your side, you’ll tune into the essence of the Argentine capital and hear stories about the everyday life of a Porteño (local resident). This 5-hour city tour is conducted by private vehicle, with plenty of stops to hop out, explore key sites, and hear what Carlos has to share about his city.

Carlos has curated an itinerary featuring the central neighborhoods of Plaza de Mayo, Puerto Madero, San Telmo, La Boca, and Recoleta. In addition to the iconic sights, you'll also discover hidden gems in each district that hold special meaning for locals. The experience includes a relaxed, light lunch with Carlos at one of his favorite restaurants. The pace is unhurried—you’ll feel like you're exploring the “Paris of South America” with a friend.

Not only does this experience provide a comprehensive exploration of Buenos Aires, but it also offers unique insights into the lived experience of Porteños. Beyond history, your energetic host focuses on everyday life—introducing you to the soul of the modern city. You'll uncover how Buenos Aires' layered past still shapes daily life in subtle yet vivid ways. 

Born and raised in Buenos Aires, Carlos knows the city like the back of his hand and enriches his commentary with colorful anecdotes and personal interpretations. The experience moves at a relaxed pace and includes a lunch break with Carlos, during which—being the son of a celebrated chef—he’ll share the gastronomic secrets of Buenos Aires. His tour feels like discovering the inner workings of the city with a friend, which, by the end, he likely will be. This private tour is ideal for cruise ship passengers, layover travelers short on time, or return visitors seeking a deeper, more authentic connection with Argentina’s capital.

The experience continues at Puerto Madero—a curious dockside development where glossy skyscrapers rise above historic 19th century buildings from the port's heyday. Apart from learning about the storied history of the area, you'll see the Puente de la Mujer (Women's Bridge) and understand why the streets in Puerto Madero are named after women and what they contributed to Argentine history and society.

This is a rare opportunity to learn about what is considered one of the most successful waterfront rival projects in the world. Puerto Madero is a rather different experience to the bustling Plaza de Mayo, with wide dockside boulevards allowing space to decompress and follow up with questions for Carlos in a calmer setting.

Puerto Madero is also a haven for architecture enthusiasts and a charming spot for experimental photography capturing the contrasting shapes and rippling surface of the canal. 

City tour stop in Puerto Madero to explore its dockside history, skyscrapers, and bridge.

Puerto Madero

Experience the defining landmarks in the beating heart of Buenos Aires. Standing in Plaza de Mayo where the revolution of 1810 secured Argentina's independence, you will be stunned by the sights and stories of such monuments as the Catedral Metropolitana, Casa Rosada, and Pirámide de Mayo.

Rather than being a bystander, you will step into the city's history and experience major happenings. Carlos will divulge exactly what goes on inside the "Pink House" and explain the significance of the obelisk. He'll also talk you through the different functions of such buildings as the Museo Nacional del Cabildo over the years and train your eye on the finer details on the facades of Calle Florida. As the experience does not include going into the museums, you may wish to make plans to see these independently after hearing what Carlos has to say about them.

City Tour stop at Buenos Aires’ Plaza de Mayo, Casa Rosada, and key independence landmarks.

Buenos Aires Historic Center

The next chapter of the experience takes you to two of the most iconic neighborhoods in Buenos Aires: San Telmo and La Boca. In San Telmo, you will meander the stalls of Mercado de San Telmo and Plaza Dorrego with the opportunity to pick up souvenirs. Passing into La Boca, you will stroll along the photographic Caminito and take in the sight of the Alberto José Armando "La Bombonera" Stadium. 

After experiencing the political and commercial center of Buenos Aires followed by the upscale dockside enclave, this part of the experience provides quite the contrast. San Telmo has an old-soul feel and a creative energy where history meets hipness. As you wander around these cobblestone streets you’ll hear tango music drifting from cafes and antique stores. 

Don't be shy about stopping to browse any places that catch your eye; Carlos will all too happy to introduce you to vendors and artisans.

Portugal

This walking and photography tour takes you through the soulful backstreets of Alfama—Lisbon’s oldest neighborhood. Starting at the base of Elevador do Castelo, you’ll ascend into a maze of cobbled alleys, tiled façades and sunlit balconies where laundry sways in the wind.

Led by a seasoned photographer, you’ll move through lived-in corridors and quiet courtyards that retain the rhythm of daily life. Along the way, there’s a relaxed café stop where you’ll try pastéis de nata and other traditional pastries. You’ll pass secret viewpoints, catch glimpses of the city’s tiled rooftops, and photograph the iconic tram 28 as it rattles through narrow lanes.

This is for travelers who want to feel the old soul of Lisbon without the crowds or clichés. Alfama is one of the few neighborhoods that survived the 1755 earthquake, preserving its medieval street plan and Moorish influences. You’ll see Arabic arches, azulejo panels, and community patios that reflect centuries of life in the city.

This experience offers a fresh take on Alfama, away from postcard viewpoints and predictable routes. Rather than following crowds to the usual lookouts, Gilby guides you to quiet terraces with equally striking views. You’ll slip through shaded patios, circle the castle grounds, and catch tram 28 just as it rounds a corner — before descending to the riverfront as the light softens.

Alfama is technically and visually demanding to photograph. The neighborhood’s narrow alleys create dramatic light contrast, tight framing, and layered textures that challenge casual composition. You’ll learn how to work with shifting exposure, read shadow lines, and compose amid a density of tiled façades, balconies, and crumbling stone.

Gilby has walked these streets for years, photographing Alfama by day and night. He knows the people, the daily rhythms, even the street cats he greets by name. He’ll show you how to photograph the neighborhood — looking for light and texture rather than just landmarks.

Gilby is a professional street photographer based in Lisbon, known for capturing the city’s evolving rhythm with clarity and character. Over the years, he has developed a strong personal connection with Alfama—walking its alleys countless times with his camera in hand, documenting the subtle beauty of everyday life. From weathered façades and overlooked corners to neighborhood cats and longtime residents, Gilby has built a visual archive that reflects the neighborhood’s real personality. His work has appeared in both local and international publications, recognized for its authenticity and detail. More than taking photos, you'll gain insights into how the neighborhood has changed over the time Gilby has lived in Lisbon and what elements remain authentic to him.

This is an exclusive once-a-year day trip from Seville that allows you to partake in just one of the days of pilgrimage to El Rocío. You'll join a local brotherhood as they walk from Seville to El Rocío, beginning at dawn and stretching into the midnight hour. 

THIS EXPERIENCE IS ONLY OFFERED FOR MAY 20-25, 2026.

With a local brotherhood member as your host, you'll immerse in a day filled with singing, dancing, and ritual observances dedicated to the Virgin del Rocío.

This experience walks the edge between history and imagination, following Dante Alighieri through a city that burned long before he cast it into verse. Florence in the Middle Ages was already a theatre of violence, plague, betrayals, and power struggles — Dante saw it all and made it eternal.

You’ll stop at the Duomo, where his best-known portrait still watches over the city, and the Battistero, the only church unchanged since his time. In Sant’Ambrogio, the memory of a children’s cemetery lingers, echoing the invention of Limbo. The alleys of his political quarter speak of exile and vendetta, while the Lungarni still carry the weight of lives and sins he condemned in poetry.

Each step brings you closer to the real city that became a blueprint for the Inferno — not a metaphor, but a mirror. Dante didn’t imagine hell. He lived in it. And in shaping it, he sealed Florence into the afterlife.

What sets this experience apart is its focus on the figure who shaped Italian literature and profoundly influenced how Florence is seen and remembered across the centuries. Dante Alighieri — known in Italy as il Sommo Poeta, the Supreme Poet — turned a city torn by plague, violence, and political strife into the timeless landscape of his Divine Comedy. This walk brings those verses back to the streets that inspired them, revealing a Florence both real and imagined.

You’ll follow a path through places tied to Dante’s life and fears, guided as much by literature as by history. The experience uncovers a lesser-known Florence — its medieval core, its lost cemeteries, its riverside scenes  — through lines that still burn with meaning.

Guido, a licensed guide with deep roots in Tuscany, brings rare insight to the experience. With care and precision, he weaves Dante’s world into the very streets of the city, making each stop resonate with both cultural depth and human intensity.

Walking Tour in Florence exploring Dante’s medieval Florence, his life, and the Inferno inspiration.

Walking into Dante’s Inferno

Full guidance.

A gelato break along the way.

You’ll meet Guido in Piazza dei Cerchi. He’ll wear a red t-shirt to be easily spotted, echoing Dante’s iconic red robe.

Guido Scattola is a licensed guide with over six years of experience bringing Italy’s cultural heritage to life. Born in Venice and raised in Tuscany, he found in Florence a city that captured both his heart and his curiosity. Since 2018, he has led visitors through its streets, museums, and quiet corners, sharing not only the grandeur of Renaissance art and architecture but also the subtle charm of the city’s lesser-known stories.

What makes Guido’s approach unique is his ability to balance the majestic with the intimate. Whether he’s guiding you through the opulent halls of the Medici, exploring the legacy of Dante, or unveiling the traditions behind Florentine fashion, he does so with contagious enthusiasm and deep knowledge. For Guido, every detail in Florence tells a story — and his passion lies in revealing how those stories weave together into something unforgettable.

A calçotada is a seasonal Catalan ritual (November–April) centered on the communal roasting and eating of calçots - sweeter, elongated onion-like shoot cultivated in trenches.  

You’ll depart Barcelona in private car, into the Catalan countryside. Your destination: a working garden where calçots (pronounced kal-sotz) are grown, harvested and prepared over open fire. 

Along the way, you’ll stop at the Royal Monastery of Santes Creus, a medieval Cistercian abbey built in 12th century, with Gothic cloisters, royal tombs and austere architectural purity.  

At the garden, you’ll meet the farming family and learn about the cultivation of calçots. Then comes the feast: calçots grilled until the outer layers blacken, wrapped in newspaper to steam and eaten by hand — peeling away charred exteriors and dipping each stalk into romesco (or a similar sauce). Expect to get your fingers messy, and partake in what is, by design, a convivial, generous meal. This is as farm-to-table fresh as it gets.

A calçotada is a food experience that is sociable, traditional, delicious, and playful. It’s about ritual, regional identity, rural air, fire, laughter, wine, and the earth that grew your food. The ritual of gathering friends for a gluttonous afternoon to eat them defines Catalan winter life in rural areas. While many gastronomic experiences offer tasting or cooking classes to visitors, few immerse you in a tradition still rooted in community and seasonality. 

In this private gathering, the owners will share how calçots are planted and harvested as leafless stalks. Ask them about the origin story of the calçotada, how it started in the Catalan town of Valls at the end of the 19th century, and about the farmer who experimented with planting onion shoots under soil and discovered their sweet, tender interior.  

The inclusion of Santes Creus brings in further cultural weight: this abbey served as a royal pantheon for Aragonese kings and houses tombs of monarchs in Gothic sanctuaries.

Venice is the living, breathing backdrop for this exclusive and iconic street photography workshop with photographer Marco Secchi or a seasoned associate. It’s designed to sharpen your eye and transform the way you capture city scenes. You’ll step into the rhythm of Venice—exploring hidden alleys, vibrant markets, and quiet canals, where light, movement, and people create ever-changing compositions.

With expert guidance, you’ll discover the city beyond the postcards—capturing the moments locals live every day. It’s about seeing Venice differently, with fresh eyes and a deeper connection. A rare opportunity for those who seek special immersive experiences.

Venice is a city of fleeting moments—light on water, artisans at work, daily life unfolding in quiet corners. But capturing its essence demands more than technical skill. It requires an eye for the unseen and a feel for the rhythm of the city.

Led by a working photojournalist and grounded in real-time observation and practice, this private photography masterclass isn’t about staged shots or postcard views. It’s about learning instinct—training yourself to anticipate movement, to look around corners, and to embrace imperfection in pursuit of something real.

You’ll shift from settings to seeing—developing a more intuitive, responsive approach. Unlike typical photography tours, this experience immerses you in Venice’s unscripted moments. A fleeting glance in a market. A boatman lost in thought. Small things. Real things.

This is an invitation to see Venice—and yourself—differently. To stop chasing the perfect shot, and start capturing life as it unfolds.

Barcelona’s old town is living history. This unique tour aims to tell it in a fun and original way – through its historic shops.

The city’s gothic quarter is full of tucked away retail treasures. This tour takes you on a magical mystery tour of the area’s stone-walled squares and hidden cul-de-sacs to discover antiquarian booksellers, ancient herb shops, and art nouveau-style boutiques trading in handmade fans, candles, and espadrilles.

Along the way, you’ll learn about Barcelona’s medieval history, a metropolis once so productive that it was said a blind man could navigate his way around following the sounds of artisans toiling away at metal, glass, and leather. 

The meeting point will be at emblematic cafe in Plaza Catalunya - the centre of Barcelona. If you are staying centrally, hotel pick up can be arranged. 

On this tour, retail therapy takes on a much deeper meaning as you visit monuments to the shopping dynasties that keep the Catalan craft traditions alive.

Each shop you stop at tells a story, in craft techniques, artisan tradition, and the medieval development of the city itself. Plenty of opportunities for interaction with shopkeepers and artisans. In some cases, you would be able to see them at work.

One Day in Mexico City

Fernwayer’s perfect one day in Mexico City moves from historic icons to Polanco’s flavors by night.

This 10-day itinerary moves through Andalusia’s most expressive cities—Seville, Cádiz, Ronda, Málaga, and Granada—balancing guided experiences with time to wander. You’ll follow a one-way route from Seville to Málaga to minimize travel and deepen your experience. From Moorish palaces to Roman ruins and vibrant markets, this trip is an invitation to engage with Andalusia as a living culture. Along the way, you’ll find curated experiences, hotel and dining recommendations, and insights from two locals who know this region intimately.

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.

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.

Croatia

Stone, Sea, Story in Dubrovnik

3 days in Dubrovnik with Old Town walks, exploring Fort Lovrijenac, Croatian food, and Banje Beach.

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. Cedofeita offers a more local feel, with art galleries, cafés, and quieter streets just beyond the center. For those who prefer evenings by the sea, Foz provides Atlantic calm while keeping Porto close at hand.
