This Andalusia tour with a yoga twist is not a wellness retreat — it’s much better. It’s a journey that combines nature, cultural adventures, food, and sun salutations in one of the most beautiful places on earth — southern Spain. You’ll stay in a private villa in the Andalusian hills, enjoy chef-prepared meals, and explore cities like Málaga, Seville, and Granada with our expert guides. Mornings begin with sunrise yoga sessions with your host, Crystal Hochman (though no judgment if you sleep in). Afternoons might bring flamenco, tapas in bustling Moorish markets, bracing cliffside walks, or slow lunches in sprawling Spanish vineyards. Our Andalusia tour is designed to nourish — body, mind, and appetite — without the rigidity of a retreat or the rush of a typical itinerary. It’s where “om” meets jamón, and siestas follow savasana. Olé! Namaste!
