FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Contrary to regular yoga retreats, our yoga holidays are designed to help you experience all that Thailand has to offer. We believe in combining yoga with travel and unique cultural activities because if you simply stay in a retreat center the whole time, you’re missing out on the best parts!

Of course! If your partner isn’t interested in the yoga sessions that’s perfectly fine. After all, unlike most yoga retreats out there.. we offer plenty of other non-yogic activities for them to join in on. That being said, we also strive to create a welcoming environment where all students, regardless of ability or training, can thrive and grow. Keep in mind that yoga is contagious!

Absolutely not. We get single guests all the time. You will feel completely at home, no worries.

In general and to ensure an intimate setting, the group holidays are limited to a maximum of 20 people.

While we plan classes and activities around our guests’ interests and abilities, our trips are not designed for younger children. While older teens who are interested in yoga may fit in well with our group holidays, families with younger children may want to consider a a custom, private yoga holiday designed exclusively for friends and family. Contact us to learn more.

Certainly! Custom trips are what we do best. Please contact us and outline what you have in mind, and how many people are in your group.

If you're travelling solo select a "single twin occupancy" room. If you have a friend you'd like to share with, be sure to add their name when booking. Otherwise, we'll pair women with women and men with men in a room with two twin beds.

For those that value their privacy, private room options are usually available and subject to a surcharge.

When signing up for a holiday make sure to book a "couples double occupancy" room and we’ll make sure we pair you up in a king size bed. Keep in mind that room types are available on a first come, first serve basis - so book early to avoid disappointment.

While we don’t stick to a strict eating or food style, we try offer a bit of everything with a healthy spin. Normally when we eat out we’ll order a wide range of dishes for everyone to share, but you can also request anything else you may want. Thai food is packed with herbs and vegetables and easy to make vegetarian or vegan versions of popular dishes. Since most meals are based around rice or rice noodles, there are also many gluten-free options. If you have any food allergies or dietary restrictions please mark them down on your registration form.

One of the greatest things about Thailand is its cuisine. While all group meals are included, meals taken during free-time are not, giving you the opportunity to discover delicious eats on your own. Thailand has some of the tastiest food in the world and we’ll always point you in the right direction with recommendations!

While the tap water is fine to shower or brush your teeth with, clean, bottled drinking water will be available throughout the holiday. When eating out at restaurants or at street stalls you can buy bottled water or drink the free water provided (it’s distilled).

In some cases, you might be able to fly directly into Chiang Mai or Phuket. For the adventurous, you can consider taking the train or even a night bus from Bangkok to Chiang Mai.

You don’t need much money while on this trip, however, it’s always good to have some cash handy. We suggest bringing at least 500$ for things like tips, massages, shopping and individual meals and beverages.

You can pick up a prepaid SIM card for your phone at any 7-11. If your current phone is locked to a plan another option is to purchase an e-sim from the Airalo app. As for internet, there is a solid 4G signal and an abundance of free Wi-Fi across Thailand.

The short answer: hot and sunny. The long answer: Thailand has three seasons which vary in heat, humidity and rainfall. The best time to visit Northern Thailand weather-wise is between November and February when it rains the least and it is not too hot. Although the rainy season (roughly July to October) gets a bad reputation, there are some bonuses to visiting during this time: temperatures tend to be cooler, tourists are fewer and the landscape is lush and green. It also rarely rains all day everyday, so don’t worry. As for Southern Thailand, we love it there from March to May!
