South Africa · 8 days · From EUR 1169 (indicative)
Days start with an activating Hatha Flow, pranayama and meditation — movement and breath work together. In the evening a Yin yoga or Yoga Nidra session closes the day. Each session lasts 60 to 90 minutes and is open to all levels; no previous experience is needed. Practice happens outside in a sheltered spot as well as indoors, so bring your own mat.
Breakfast is taken together in the main house each morning. Dinners are optional and often eaten together in Stellenbosch, the university town where the guesthouse sits — food and drinks at those dinners are not included in the price.
The excursions are the spine of the week. One day goes to the Cape of Good Hope and Boulders Beach, where the penguin colony sits on the sand. Another goes into Cape Town: the V&A Waterfront and Table Mountain, with the cable car ticket paid separately. A third heads into the Stellenbosch winelands, riding a tractor between vineyards in the Golden Triangle and stopping for a tasting — the tasting and any food are extra.
The guesthouse is run on sustainable lines, with a garden, an outdoor pool, a lounge and a dining area. The airport at Cape Town is about 35 minutes' drive away; the transfer is not in the price but the teacher will organise it for roughly €25–30.
What separates this from a generic yoga week is the setting: you are in the middle of South Africa's best-known wine region, with Cape Town and the coast within day-trip distance, and the group is small enough that the teacher knows everyone by name.
