In this walking tour through Bilbao, your host, a local with expertise in art and architecture, will introduce you to the city, making sure you understand the essential historical and cultural context, while providing insight into the city’s unique blend of architectural styles.

You’ll pass through the city’s main central quarters and see how the medieval layout gave way to 19th- and 20th-century developments, before arriving at the high modernism of the 21st century. You’ll witness how eclectic this city is — where Art Deco sits next to the so-called ‘High-Tech’ architecture of Norman Foster, among others. You'll also visit the Cathedral, the region’s most impressive Gothic structure.

Discover how the city has transformed from a mining town into a hub known for its galleries and contemporary architecture. Your host will take you to independent showrooms and galleries that visitors wouldn’t usually come across, and you’ll stop for classic pintxos and drinks at emblematic locations.

Bilbao is perfect for travelers looking for cultural exploration. Few cities can, like Bilbao does, boast more than ten buildings by Pritzker Architecture Prize winners. Its 21st-century urban renewal — led by architecture, transit, and design — has become a global model.

Your host is a Bilbaína who has been exploring the city with locals and travelers alike for many years, and was directly involved in the process of its urban redevelopment. Having written a thesis on Basque cinema, being a long-term student of architecture and art, and embedded in the local cultural scene, M'Angel is the perfect person to show you the cultural and creative side of this city.

Always on the hunt for good food and drink spots, she'll make sure you taste as well as see the best of what Bilbao and the Basque Country have to offer.

Chile

This full-day private tour of Santiago introduces you to the emblems and lesser-known corners of the Chilean capital through the lens of a Santiaguino. After being collected from your hotel by Julio, you will first visit the Bahá'í Temple and bear witness to one of the country's most unusual architectural structures. The odyssey continues at Los Dominicos Artisans’ Village, where you'll browse market stalls and chat with artisans.

From there, you’ll enjoy a scenic drive through the districts of Las Condes and Providencia before arriving at the artistic neighborhood of Bellavista for an intimate lunch with Julio. The afternoon concludes with a visit to the storied Santa Lucía Hill, followed by a walking tour of the Historic Civic Center.

Julio has curated this itinerary for budding historians looking to feast on stories, sights, and local bites. Rather than seeing Santiago as a tourist, you'll experience it as an archivist of the ephemeral. This is Santiago in a day, done right. 

This one-day exploration of Santiago is designed for travelers short on time but eager to connect with the essence of the city. The route weaves together major landmarks and lesser-known sites, each rich in historical and cultural significance. It's a Santiago most visitors miss—full of fleeting details and local insight.

What makes this experience truly distinctive is its host. Julio—a gifted storyteller attuned to the echoes of centuries—guides you through Santiago’s layered history, shaped by conquest, faith, and reinvention. His insights breathe new life into familiar buildings and uncover chapters rarely mentioned in guidebooks or conventional tours. He facilitates real conversations with artisans and offers glimpses into the city’s everyday rhythms.

Lunch at one of Julio’s favorite spots is a chance to unwind, exchange stories and deepen the connection. Let the rhythm of Santiago’s streets—a symphony of colonial grandeur and modern ambition—set the stage for a day of discovery.

The journey continues west as you glide through the affluent districts of Las Condes, Vitacura, and Providencia by private vehicle. 

Note how glass towers shimmer like secular cathedrals to Chile’s economic ascent. Yet within moments, the horizon shifts: Providencia’s art deco facades give way to the historic core of Santiago where the ghosts of conquistadors and revolutionaries linger. 

This scenic drive presents a snapshot of an ever-changing city resting in a valley between the Andes mountains and the Coastal Ranges of Chile. During the journey, Julio will untangle the history of Santiago and explain how and why Indigenous communities came to settle here. Besides sharing tales of the past, Julio will offer a local's perspective on the modern identity of the capital and how antiquity coexists with modernity. 

Through Modernity to Antiquity: A Drive Through Time

Las Condes and Vitacura

'Here, light becomes liturgy.' 

In 1953, Shoghi Effendi, guardian of the Bahá'í Faith, envisioned a temple to unite a continent. By 2016, this dream crystallized into the Mother Temple of South America—and today this is the first stop on your one-day odyssey of Santiago de Chile.

The Bahá'í Temple of Santiago is a structure of nine luminous “petals” each arching skyward like a prayer. Thirty meters high, its glass-clad sails filter daylight into a sanctuary for 600 souls, symbolizing the Bahá'í tenet of oneness. 

As Julio will expand on, the temple’s floral form is no accident: it mirrors nature’s perfection, a deliberate echo of divine harmony. Julio will share yet more tidbits and wisdom while taking you on a dance around Santiago's most enthralling landmark and idyllic gardens. This visit is far more than simply snapping a photo and moving on—you will study every curve and pore over every last detail while under Julio's watch. 

Santiago Bahá'í Temple

Arriving at Los Dominicos Artisan's Village is akin to walking into a living archive of Chilean tradition. Nestled beside the 18th-century San Vicente Ferrer Church in Santiago's Los Condes district, this enclave of 200 workshops hums with the legacy of Mapuche metalsmiths, colonial leather workers, and mestizo weavers. 

Julio will weave you around the artisan village and introduce you to craftspeople who will share their work and stories. As this is an opportune moment to pick up souvenirs, it is advisable to carry cash (Chilean pesos). 

Trace your fingers over copper cookware forged in ancestral fires, inhale the earthy musk of medicinal herbs, and savor empanadas—a culinary relic of Spain’s Moorish past reborn in the New World.

Julio will explain the nuances of the Chilean arts and crafts scene and unravel the backstories of typical metals and fabrics. Best of all, this segment allows an opportunity to engage with local artisans and learn about how they carry out their work in modern times while honoring ancient traditions. 

Crafting continuity in Santiago de Chile. 

Los Dominicos Artisan Village

Huelén, the Mapuche called it; "here is the place." 

In 1540, the Spanish conquistador Pedro de Valdivia raised his cross upon this volcanic outcrop, thus founding Santiago as a bastion of empire. Today, Santa Lucía Hill's serpentine paths lead past moss-crowned cannons and neoclassical follies with each step a dialogue between Indigenous resilience and colonial ambition. 

After a short climb, you'll pause at the summit and observe how the city sprawls below like a map of its own layered history.  

Santa Lucía Hill (Cerro Santa Lucía) is one of Santiago's most treasured natural landmarks. Paths weave through lush greenery that provide relief to the lungs of Santiaguinos and Santiaguinas before culminating with one of the finest views in the city.

Sheltered by trees and cooled by the cascading Fountain of Neptune, Julio will expose the origins of Santiago through a blend of facts, mythology, and personal commentaries. This beautiful place for photography strikes a startling contrast with dizzying urban areas below and shows the capital in an entirely different light. 

Santa Lucía Hill

Lunch unfolds in Bellavista, Santiago’s most bohemian barrio, where cobblestone streets and kaleidoscopic murals pulse with artistic energy. This eclectic neighborhood thrums with craft breweries, artisan markets, and the legacy of such creatives as Pablo Neruda whose whimsical home, La Chascona, nestles nearby. 

Julio will take you to Galindo, a beloved local institution where the walls buzz with decades of stories and the aroma of Chilean comfort food fills the air. Refresh with a tangy Pisco Sour and savor Pastel de Choclo—a caramelized corn pie steeped in Andean tradition. Galindo’s menu celebrates Chile’s soul: Machas a la Parmesana (plump razor clams broiled with Parmesan), Caldillo de Congrio (a silky fish soup immortalized by Neruda himself), and hearty empanadas and steaks that pair perfectly with bold Chilean wines.

Bellavista is Santiago’s beating creative heart, where art spills onto sidewalks and rebellion mingles with tradition. Beyond the flavors on your plate, you’ll taste the neighborhood’s free-spirited history—a blend of political activism, poetic legacy, and midnight revelry. Lunch with Julio becomes a cultural exchange shaped by tales of his childhood prowling Santiago’s winding streets and his deep connection to Central Chile’s landscapes. With warmth and wit, he’ll decode the menu’s cultural gems and guide you to a dish that feels like a culinary embrace.

Lunch in Bellavista

This one-day history tour of Santiago concludes in the Historic Civic Center where Julio will introduce you to such wonders as:

- Plaza de Armas: the "square of weapons" turned agora of democracy.
- La Moneda Palace: a former mint turned presidential seat scarred by Pinochet’s 1973 coup.  
- Supreme Court Palace: a neoclassical sentinel of justice where columns echo the Forum of Rome.  
- The Old Parliament: a relic of legislative grandeur, abandoned when politics fled to Valparaíso.  

Although there will not be time to visit any museums during the experience, Julio will point out nearby institutions you may visit on another day. The experience concludes with the return to your hotel in Santiago or an alternative location in the city center. 

This history-studded district of Santiago de Chile anchors the finale of this experience. Beneath the shadow of the Metropolitan Cathedral (a baroque titan rebuilt thrice after earthquakes), Julio will dissect the anatomy of power. Exploring the historic heart of Santiago with Julio at your side exposes you to stories not printed in textbooks. He will reveal hidden layers of the past and lay bare the epochs of Chile's capital riddled with personal insights.

Morocco

This is our essential storytelling session—if you only have an hour in Marrakesh, make it this one.  It brings Morocco’s oral heritage to life through folktales, historical narratives, and epic sagas. In a traditional riad or museum, you'll be guided by a professional storyteller who draws from Morocco’s deep well of narrative tradition. In just 45–60 minutes, you’ll be taken on a mythical journey into the heart of Moroccan culture, shaped by generations of spoken word.

You’re invited to sit back with a cup of Moroccan tea as a live musician plays soothing, rhythmic melodies that deepen the emotional resonance of each story. The experience is atmospheric and immersive, led by a trained storyteller who honors a centuries-old tradition where storytelling served as both memory and cultural transmission.

Whether you're seeking connection or simply curious, this is a rare and unforgettable window into Morocco’s soul.

This experience connects you to a living tradition that has shaped Moroccan culture for over a thousand years. Storytelling, or hikayat, was once a nightly ritual in homes—an act of passing down wisdom through tales of princes, sultans, and tricksters. It was also the beating heart of Marrakesh’s famed Jemaa el-Fnaa, where hlaykias (storytellers) once held crowds rapt with only a stool, a prop, and their voice.

Today, as modern life and technology threaten the future of this oral heritage, a new generation of Moroccan storytellers is working to preserve and reimagine it. This experience is part of that revival. Set in intimate spaces in the medina, it captures the spirit of the traditional hikayat circle—enhanced by live music and mint tea.

It’s a chance to slow down, listen deeply, and witness a tradition once on the brink of fading now finding new life through voice, rhythm, and shared memory. This truly captures the intimacy, legacy, and human connection at the heart of hikayat.

Portugal

Hosted by an award-winning sommelier in her elegant Lisbon home, this private wine tasting is a true masterclass that takes you across Portugal in five glasses — each reflecting the unique terroirs and native grape varieties that define the country’s winemaking regions. The three-hour session begins with a guided overview of key regions, from the UNESCO-listed Douro Valley near Porto to the rural heartland of Alentejo in the south.

You’ll learn about vineyard cycles and aging techniques before diving into a series of sensorial games on how to taste wine properly—exploring appearance, aroma, and palate — plus practical tips on food pairing, vocabulary, and wine storage. Alongside the wines, you'll sample Portuguese charcuterie and cheese sourced from across the country. This experience offers an in-depth yet accessible introduction to Portugal’s rich and varied wine culture — all without leaving the capital.

Mexico

Corn has been a core element of the Mexican diet for thousands of years. Archaeologists have found maize cobs dating back to 4300 BC. Traditionally, the ingredient represented sustenance, fertility, and ancestral wisdom.

In this food workshop, you'll discover why corn is a much more diverse plant than you might imagine. You will also learn, hands-on, using traditional tools and the Nixtamal process, how to transform this magical ingredient into a tortilla.

Andrea is a genuine steward of Burano’s fishing culture, including employing ancient fishing techniques and gathering edible plants from the mudflats. His primary mission in offering tours is to ensure the preservation of the traditional practices of the Venetian lagoon — he and the Burano Fishermen’s Cooperative work to preserve the lagoon and pass on traditional stewardship skills — and every booking supports this mission.

Explore the diversity of mezcal in this in-depth guided tasting experience. You'll meet your host in Coyoacán, a colorful, artistic and historic oasis in Mexico City. Begin with a brief walk through some of the area’s most emblematic sites, such as the Capilla de San Juan Bautista and La Casa de la Malinche.

Then, you will gather around the communal table in Andrea's studio, where she will share a curated selection of mezcals. For each mezcal you taste, you’ll learn about its region, agave variety, the people who make it, the cultural significance, and the production techniques behind it.

Andrea will lead you through a structured tasting method she developed, designed to explore mezcal’s full range of tones and expressions. At each step, you’ll be encouraged to reflect on what you taste and share your impressions.

Each mezcal is paired with unique food tastings — salsas, native fruits, artisanal cheeses, and other Mexican snacks — chosen to complement and deepen the experience.

This in-depth sensory experience is designed to connect you with mezcal culture. You’ll learn about your own taste preferences and become an informed mezcal drinker. You’ll appreciate the craftsmanship and value of this artisanal spirit and its role in Mexican history.

It’s rare in CDMX to find a mezcal tasting that pairs host led structure, historical depth, private guidance, food pairings — all delivered in an intimate setting like Andrea’s tasting studio.

Andrea’s specialty is mezcal from Guerrero, an oft-overlooked region producing exceptional spirits. The snacks and entrées are locally sourced; family recipes passed down through generations.

The short walk roots you in the story of Coyoacán: its role in the foundation of New Spain as a place of cultural blending and mestizo history. Mezcal is part of this story: distillation techniques arrived with the Spanish and the agave, a plant highly valued in native Mexican cultures, became the raw material that made the spirit possible.

Andrea is an anthropologist by training, Master Mezcalier by trade, and a singer. She has fifteen years of experience promoting Guerrero State's mezcal culture and traditions, an area not typically associated with mezcal, but with plenty of flavors that are a joy to discover.

Andrea's own work in mezcal emerged from an extensive family history, where numerous memories and experiences have been intrinsically linked to the enjoyment of this spirit, always accompanied by good food and music. Since 2010, Andrea has been an integral part of the new narrative being woven around mezcal from Guerrero, actively contributing to its recognition and appreciation both nationally and internationally. 

Andrea's knowledge encompasses not only the specific culture of Guerrero, but extends to the diverse traditions that exist throughout the length and breadth of Mexico. She is certified as a Master Mezcalier and as a Leader in Food and Beverage Sensory Evaluation.

An Escape to Morocco

10 days in Morocco through Marrakesh, Essaouira, and the Atlas Mountains with art, food, and nature.

This road trip weaves together two Atlantic-shaped regions defined by strong identities and a deep relationship with food, wine, and ideas. Beginning in Bilbao, you explore how contemporary art and traditional cuisine coexist in a city reinvented without losing its soul. The journey then expands into the Basque Country’s landscapes and villages, where language, history, and geography form a distinct worldview. In San Sebastián, elegance, nature, and gastronomy converge, balancing curated experiences with unhurried time. Crossing into France, the tone shifts in Bordeaux, where grandeur, wine, and layered histories dominate. Here, stories grow darker and more introspective, balanced by restoration and sensory pleasure. Across both regions, the itinerary highlights contrast—modern and ancient, light and shadow, coastal openness and inward reflection—connected by the sea and a shared devotion to living well.

DAY 1 – BILBAO | Arrive the day before to fully enjoy your first day. The morning explores how a single building reshaped Bilbao’s identity. Beyond architecture, this experience reveals the social and emotional transformation sparked by the Guggenheim, positioning art as a catalyst for renewal. In the evening, shift from theory to flavor on a pintxo trail through the old town. Moving bar to bar, Basque cuisine reveals itself as a social ritual of small bites, bold flavors, and conversation—visionary yet grounded, global yet fiercely local.

DAY 2 – BEYOND BILBAO | Today broadens perspective through landscapes, stories, and cultural touchstones that define Basque life. You’ll explore the region’s relationship to land, language, and independence, connecting rural and urban worlds. Rather than monuments, the focus is context: why food tastes the way it does, why towns are shaped as they are, and how history continues to inform daily life.

DAY 3 – ARRIVE IN SAN SEBASTIÁN | Travel east to San Sebastián, where green hills meet a perfect crescent bay. The afternoon captures the city’s defining balance of beauty, elegance, and culinary excellence. By evening, San Sebastián feels intimate and assured, a place where daily life unfolds with quiet confidence.

DAY 4 – SAN SEBASTIÁN | A guided immersion reveals how the city’s bay, beaches, promenades, and coastline shape its identity. Walking La Concha, you see how urban planning and nature converge to define mood and rhythm. The afternoon is free to wander—along the promenade, through the old town, or beside the sea.

Day 5 – ARRIVAL IN BORDEAUX | Crossing into France, Bordeaux greets you with elegance layered over complexity. Dark Tales of Bordeaux uncovers histories of power, trade, and moral ambiguity hidden beneath grand façades. Familiar streets take on new meaning as wealth, ambition, and exploitation come into focus, setting a reflective tone.

Day 6 – BORDEAUX | Morning centers on restoration and continuity in one of Bordeaux’s historic districts, revealing how the past is carefully tended rather than erased. In the afternoon, wine tasting in the city expresses place and history through flavor. The journey ends grounded in craftsmanship, pleasure, and restraint.

WHERE TO STAY ALONG THE ROUTE | In Bilbao, Ensanche offers central ease, while Casco Viejo brings character and nightlife. In San Sebastián, Centro or Gros provide beach access and dining, with Gros feeling more local. In Bordeaux, the Triangle d’Or suits elegance seekers, while Saint-Michel offers atmosphere and history. Each base balances immersion and downtime.

Basque Coast to Bordeaux

A road trip itinerary from the Basque Country to Bordeaux, tracing art, culture, and the Atlantic.

This road trip traces Iberia’s southern arc, where Moorish legacies, rural traditions, and Atlantic-facing cultures converge. Beginning in Seville and ending in Lisbon, the journey favors intimacy over spectacle, inland landscapes over coastlines, and continuity over contrast. Andalusia and Portugal are revealed not as opposites, but as neighboring expressions of shared histories shaped by craft, song, labor, and endurance. The pace is deliberate and gentle, inviting reflection, listening, and presence as places and people unfold.

DAY 1 – ARRIVAL IN SEVILLE | Arriving in Seville sets the tone: warm air, historic density, and lived-in beauty. In the evening, Night at the Alcázar transforms one of Spain’s most iconic sites into a hushed, almost dreamlike experience. Without daytime crowds, Mudéjar architecture, courtyards, and gardens feel contemplative. Soft lighting and stillness reveal details slowly, allowing history to surface through atmosphere rather than explanation. Beginning the journey at night feels symbolic, encouraging observation before movement. The Alcázar becomes an emotional entry point into Andalusia’s layered soul.

DAY 2 - SEVILLE | Today explores Seville’s quieter, introspective side. Moving through intimate spaces, the city reveals how spirituality, art, and daily life intertwine. Rather than accumulating facts, the focus is on awareness and emotional connection. By slowing down, Seville’s warmth and complexity come into focus. This day grounds the experience, balancing the previous night’s magic with lived meaning.

DAY 3 – SEVILLE TO TAVIRA | The morning begins with an experience exploring flamenco through fashion and design, highlighting its evolution as a living tradition. In the afternoon, you drive west and south, crossing into Portugal and arriving in Tavira. Its riverfront calm and understated elegance mark a clear shift from Andalusian intensity to Algarve tranquility.

DAY 4 – A:GARVAE | The day focuses on two pillars of Portugal’s rural economy: acorn-fed pigs and salt. Visiting Zambujal and Alcoutim, you’ll see how food systems emerge from ecology, patience, and centuries of knowledge. The quiet landscape underscores how culture is sustained through labor, restraint, and continuity.

DAY 5 – ALGARVE | Morning in Alte brings an encounter with ancestral artisans, celebrating manual knowledge passed through generations. Afterward, you drive north toward Lisbon, leaving the Algarve hills as the landscape opens toward the Tagus. Lisbon’s larger scale and layered energy unfold gradually over two nights.

DAY 6 – LISBON | The morning reframes Lisbon through the lives of women who shaped its cultural and social fabric. In the afternoon, Saudade: Lisbon’s Soul explores the city’s defining emotional undercurrent—reflective, expressive, and resilient rather than nostalgic. Together, these experiences offer a complete portrait of Lisbon: strong, tender, and deeply human.

WHERE TO STAY | In Seville, Santa Cruz offers historic calm near the Alcázar, while El Arenal feels more local and walkable. In Tavira, stay near the Gilão River or historic center. In the Eastern Algarve interior, rural guesthouses near Alcoutim or Castro Marim deepen immersion. In Lisbon, Alfama suits those drawn to history and saudade; Chiado and Bairro Alto balance culture, dining, and centrality. Each choice supports the journey’s rhythm and sense of place.
