Wellness & Retreats Tours & Trips in Europe
Picture a European trip focused on wellness and relaxation rather than sightseeing marathons. Could be thermal baths in Budapest's historic spas, Swiss Alpine wellness resorts, or Italian thermal towns in Tuscany. You're doing spa treatments, yoga, healthy meals, maybe some gentle hiking. It's travel for restoration rather than cramming in sights.

My family and I had the best time on this tour. Stunning location, amazing food and the perfect atmosphere for yoga practice. Antonio took really good care of us, sharing his insightful knowledge of the area, and Susanna cooked the most delicious food for us. I will never forget her homemade vegetarian lasagna. Jairo was an incredible yoga teacher, always listening to our needs and requirements. The best yoga and cooking holiday in Italy!
Tuscany Walking, Cooking & Yoga TourI had a wonderful week on the 1-week sailing, yoga & SUP trip. Elias is a very kind Greek who organized everything well and communicated excellently even before the trip. He’s a very experienced skipper, so I felt safe with him at all times. Throughout the trip, he regularly checked to make sure that everything for me is okay and always explained what I could do on each island. He also made sure I could reach the sights by bus when needed. At the end of the tour, he even took me to the tram stop. All in all, he’s an excellent skipper, tour guide, and host. I also have great respect for Elias for going ahead with the tour even though I was the only guest. During the trip, there were two stops where I could go stand-up paddling. Yoga sessions were held every morning and evening. The yoga teacher, Athina, is a very kind and lovely person, but unfortunately, I found her yoga classes disappointing and I was always relieved when the session was over. Since she told me she was only on board for a few weeks, I don’t want to factor this too heavily into the overall review—I'm sure there will be a better yoga instructor on board for the next tour. Overall, one should be prepared for the fact that both the bed (especially if shared) and the shower are quite cramped. Tap water on board is not drinkable but Elias provided bottle water.
1-Week Sailing Yoga & SUP in the Saronic or/and Cycladic Islands ACCORDING WEATHER CONDITIONS. BREAKFAST & LIGHT LUNCHES INCLUDED.
