Abstract: Tourism offers a potential tool for promoting social transformation. It is a powerful vehicle for changing people's thinking and behaviour both during travel and upon their return home. Sustainability requires a change in attitudes, values and behaviours to achieve this, it requires social transformation. This research explores the most appropriate type of travel to foster paradigm shift, with the goal of designing sustainable tourism experiences to transform people. Therefore, transformative tourism and some of its modalities are analysed. As well as the type of travellers and their motivations. In addition, data was collected from 116 travellers from Catalonia, to know the sensitivity regarding sustainability and transformation in travel. The results show us that tourism must enhance its pedagogical value to work on the transition to sustainability, and travel must offer elements that allow us to create a change of consciousness, with nature being the ideal setting. It is essential to extend the experience beyond returning home to continue the transformation, and to achieve the empowerment of people by adopting sustainable lifestyles. The project concludes with the proposal of a sustainable business model and the design of experiences based on the data extracted during the research: introspective journeys for sustainable lifestyles.
