We were lucky on day one to shoot the Northern Lights. We never saw them again. The Ice Beach was an amazing experience but the waterfalls and scenery generally was amazing. We were lucky enough to have received a large dumping of fresh snow which made the country spectacular. (more)Viv Gower
We were lucky enough to get a magnificent aurora display over Kirkjufell on evening 2. That probably stands out from all of the other awe-inspiring places we
went to. (more)Roy Hodson
I loved the wildness of Iceland. The weather we encountered the week I was in Iceland was raw. It snowed most of the week and sometimes the road was
closed. The weather allowed us to see Iceland with few tourist around. It was great! (more)Nancy Hardie

I loved the whole thing. The Pilates, meditation and Chi Gung tuaght by Ionos made me feel like a new woman after the week in Pelion...the sumptuous home cooking and amiable comraderie around the square table hosted by Pip and Nick...the splendid accommodation with views across the water to mountains. There is no one stand out. It was as a delight all round.
(more)Steph Tchan
The Pilates, meditation and Qi Gong sessions were held in a stunning setting on the terrace by the water - morning and evening, the lapping Pelion sea worked its spell. Ioannis the instructor/therapist/healer is a special individual, and his instruction is imbued with gentle humour. (more)Janine Hollins
There is something very special about the tour operator we went with. It's a complete getaway. You can't help but feel calm and slow down. I was there for 2 weeks - the pilates/wellness week with the marvellous Ioannis and then the yoga week with the angel like Molly. (more)Alison Fraser

Had a truly amazing time, in spite of the variable weather. Learning to cook lots of new dishes, amazing food, and meeting likeminded people from the USA and Europe. Such a fun yet relaxing trip. (more)Suzy Dobson
We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of the cooking classes, delicious meals, the excellent tours of nearby villages and towns, the spacious and comfortable rooms and the beautiful rural setting in Umbria. Podere le Olle is a truly memorable experience.

Participating in the Cuba Music Holiday through the tour operator we used was the trip of a lifetime! Learning from, working with, and performing public shows

someday. We'd also like to do another music holiday with this same company.

I enjoyed every single day of my stay in Iceland!! One of my favourite days was going to the Ice cave, it was a pretty epic trek to get there, going in a massive truck with giant wheels, and then traversing across a glacier with crampons (which I couldn't get used to), and using a ice axe, made me feel like a proper adventurer! (more)Samantha Wilson
I had not been to Iceland before so the trip was a new and memorable experience. Probably the opportunity to photograph the Northern Lights with expert tuition was the highlight. (more)Roger Webb

treasure forever! There were only 7 of us on the trip, so we got the chance to get to know each other really quickly... (more)Nikki Biggs

river to swim in, walks to be had, the retreat venue itself, the staff working there, the tipis, and last but not least, the excellent yoga and pilates tuition and

I had no expectations other than to go with the flow and listen. Andrew and Vonettq have fulfilled and are fulfilling their dream in such a manner as to share wholeheartedly with those who drop in.
