### Trip Description

Join PRIOR and Cabana Magazine in Milan and experience the capital of design like you’ve never seen before, accessing private spaces and experiencing exclusive visits to world-renowned sites.  

"Milan is a city of contrasts, conjuring both the old and new world in equal measure. It needs to be uncovered and discovered... It's not the glossy guidebooks or main attractions, impressive as they are. It's behind doors and round corners, downstairs and through courtyards. It's the private spaces and word-of-mouth recommendations that take you to the heart of the city." - Martina Mondadori, Editor-in-Chief of Cabana. 

Our 3-night stay begins as Milan awakens from its foggy winter and opens to the full bloom of spring bursting in every courtyard and green corner of the city. With the warmth of May’s sunshine, we’ll wind our way through Milan’s historic center, visiting private homes from the pages of Cabana Magazine; ateliers and artist studios along with exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to world-renowned works of art and institutions like Leonardo Da Vinci’s The Last Supper and La Scala Opera Theatre’s workshops. 

Staying in the heart of Le 5 Vie district - Milan’s most historic neighborhood whose origins date back to the Roman Empire - situates us within walking distance from all daily activities. 

Experience Milan’s food scene - a melting pot of historic restaurants and cafes, modern interpretations of Italian and global cuisine and perfect pasticcerie. If ever there was a place to see the softer side of Milan, it’s in its timeless pastry shops, where cakes, jammy tarts, tiny pasticcini, and chocolates are bought for family gatherings and holidays. They punctuate neighborhoods around the city, and just like everything in Milan, are perfectly designed.  

Renzo Mongiardino, the celebrated Italian architect, set designer, and interior decorator, and twice Oscar-nominated scenographer, ties our journey together. “The Master of Illusions,” in the words of Martina Mondadori, he is the visionary behind Casa Cabana, our home for the first evening; the creative mind responsible for Da Giacomo’s interiors, Milan’s chicest restaurant and our host for dinner the second evening; and the mastermind behind many more private homes, ateliers and spaces that we’ll discover together along the way.

Mérida Travel Guide: Best Food & Things to Do | PRIOR

In the thick jungles of the Mexican state of Yucatán, surrounded by sinkhole-sprinkled reserves and ancient Mayan ruins, Mérida is a city as dynamic as it is layered with history. What was once a seat of the Mayan empire, then a lavish conquistador playground, and then, in the early 20th century, a city where wealthy industrialists of the henequen trade staked their claim, has now emerged, after years of faded glory and abandoned haciendas, into a thriving artistic hub with a diverse creative community. In this relaxed city, where locals dance in leafy squares and sip cervezas in open-air bars, ornate colonial-era haciendas have been restored and reborn as stylish hotels, luxury boutiques featuring local designers and crafts makers, cultish taco stands, and contemporary art galleries. Artists, designers, and chefs have drawn inspiration from the many lures of the Yucatán Peninsula: its flamingo-dotted beaches, its mystical cenotes, its candy-colored buildings and grand cathedrals, scattered amidst remnants of the ancient world. But the Yucatán’s indigenous heritage has all but faded; whether through traditional chocolate farms, anthropological museum collections, or modern takes on traditional Mayan crafts, the Yucatán has worked as much to preserve what has historically given it its magic as it has to evolve into somewhere entirely unexpected. 

Piedmont 

In PRIOR's Piedmont travel guide, find the best food, things to do, and places to stay for an unforgettable trip.

Piedmont Travel Guide: Best Food & Things to Do | PRIOR

Coined Pedemontium, "at the foot of the mountain," in the early Middle Ages, Piedmont, a stretch of northwestern Italian wine country, situated between the snow-capped Alps and a scenic stretch of Ligurian coastline straddling the south of France and Tuscany — is a dense patchwork of Roman antiquity, truffle-laden wooded valleys and vineyards producing some of the most beautiful wines in the world.

Piedmont’s bustling capital, Turin, is the birthplace of two of Italy’s most-influential aesthetes: the House of Savoy, the country’s last reigning royal family, and the Italian architect Carlo Mollino, whose hidden 1960s apartment overlooking the River Po is now Museo Casa Mollino. Today, Turin continues to be a thrilling window into the country’s push-pull of tradition and transformation, mixing aristocratic architecture and an elegant café culture with a vibrant aperitivo scene spearheaded by a new generation of progressive oenophiles and apéritif aficionados. 

But it’s the Langhe, the hilly heart of Piedmont, that has long reigned as one of the world’s great gastronomic capitals. Here, in the region of Barolo and Barbaresco, terraced peaks are covered in nebbiolo vines, hazelnut groves are sources of gianduja treats and family-run trattorias serve pastas dusted with local white truffle that inspire chefs around the world.

Balearic Islands Travel Guide: Best Food & Places to Stay | PRIOR

On the Balearic Islands, Spain’s Mediterranean archipelago, jagged cliffs are dotted with wild olive trees, forested hills with stony medieval villages and hidden coves punctuate the rocky coastline. The four main isles however, offer their own distinct flavor. Ibiza’s riotous reputation put the Balearics on the map, but these days the nightlife island is in the throes of a before-dark renaissance, thanks to a host of directional boutiques, holistic wellness retreats and new galleries. On Mallorca, palm-lined harbors give way to medieval cathedrals and textile artisans speaking Mallorquí, the local dialect of Catalan, collaborate with a new generation of young makers. Menorca, meanwhile, is setting a new standard for the relationship between contemporary art and contemporary conservation of the Mediterranean's graceful lowland flora. And then there is Formentera, the smallest and quietest of all the Balearic isles, which still feels virtually unchanged from its 1960s heyday, when bohemians flocked to its laid-back beach communes. But no matter the island, you're sure to find traditional bistros serving spiny lobster and *sobrassada*, a rolling coastal Spanish breeze and endless restorative relaxation.

World-class art centers housed in crumbling palazzi. Dazzling hotels along the Grand Canal. Buzzy Bellini bars tucked away in back alleys. For one of the world’s greatest historic cities, Venice nonetheless possesses a thrilling sense of nowness. Yes, the endless amount of aquatic antiquity on display makes the lagoon metropolis one of the most photogenic places on earth. But there is far more inside these waterways than mere aesthetics. Forward-thinking tourist entry fees designed to curb overcrowding, plus progressive biennales of art, architecture, film, and science are just two recent reminders that visitors should not merely bask in the floating city’s many charms, but learn from them, too.

Seville Travel Guide: Best Hotels, Restaurants & Things to Do | PRIOR

Seville is a city of bold and brilliant layers. Once the door to the Spanish empire’s transatlantic trade, the capital of Andalusia has seen many reigns — Phoenicians, Romans, Visigoths, Moors, and Christians, to name a few — impressing Seville with scents of orange blossoms, the sounds of flamenco, and an vibrant architectural style known as Mudejar. “Sevilla tiene un color especial,” goes the popular song — “Seville has a special color.” The city embodies a sensory experience that has become the image of Spain sold all over the world: the fiery bullfighter, the romantic guitarist, the tapas crawlers. All are a part of what make up this storybook city running along the Guadalquivir River, where life is lived slowly and in the winding cobblestoned streets, with a caña in one hand and a slice of jamón in the other.

Canopies of Spanish moss, palmetto-lined rows of pastel homes, and dramatic church steeples piercing the cityscape: It’s no wonder Charleston and Savannah are two of the country’s most beloved cities.

Winding alleys, historic mansions, crab-shack-dotted beaches and marshes, and a rich culinary scene mean that everywhere you go here, there’s something to discover from the past, present, and future.

The French Riviera invokes an eternal summer and remains the stomping ground for any true bon vivant. The Provence Alps and aquamarine Mediterranean Sea create a haven for artists, gourmands, and superyachts alike. Between the Cannes Film Festival and the parade of stars who have rubbed elbows here — everyone from Brigitte Bardot to F. Scott Fitzgerald have made their mark on its pebbled shores and cliffside villas, sipping Bandol and sharing a grand aïoli platter — the region has become synonymous with summertime glamour. In fact, it was practically invented here.

Today, visitors still come for the beguiling souks, which are home to some of the best artisans in the world, but also for the sunny climes and the laid-back vibes.
