Calendar
Small groups, personally accompanied
With Cecilia, we design and lead small-group journeys for travelers who want to discover a destination in a different way. Tea and coffee journeys, art, architecture and design, gastronomy, nature and culture, as well as lesser-explored destinations that we choose for everything they have to reveal. Each itinerary is born from our own curiosity and experience as travelers, seeking out places, people and experiences that allow you to discover a destination beyond its must-sees. In 2027, we’ll be traveling together again, with small groups and destinations we are truly excited about. This is our new calendar.
