Yoga Retreat
South Africa & Rwanda
with Leslie Glickman
Early 2027
This extraordinary journey draws us back to Africa once again — a deeply moving experience that weaves together South Africa’s vibrant city life, breathtaking landscapes, world-class wine country, unforgettable safari, and the rare privilege of trekking mountain gorillas in Rwanda. It is a journey of contrast and connection, blending culture, wildlife, luxury, and moments of true awe.
Cape Town
We begin in Cape Town, one of the world’s most beautiful cities, framed by the iconic Table Mountain and the Atlantic Ocean. Our time here includes a guided city tour through historic neighborhoods, the colorful Bo-Kaap district, the Company’s Garden, and the lively V&A Waterfront. A full-day journey along the Cape Peninsula reveals dramatic coastal scenery, including Chapman’s Peak Drive, the legendary Cape of Good Hope, and the charming penguin colony at Boulders Beach.
Cape Winelands
We then continue into the nearby Cape Winelands, where rolling vineyards, mountain backdrops, and historic estates create a setting that feels both elegant and serene. Time here is devoted to wine tastings, exceptional cuisine, and relaxed exploration in the renowned regions of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek.
Qwabi Private Game Reserve
From the coast, we fly north to Limpopo for three unforgettable nights at an intimate adults-only lodge within Qwabi Private Game Reserve. Here, the rhythm of the African bush takes over. Twice-daily game drives offer the opportunity to encounter the iconic Big Five, while luxurious suites and peaceful surroundings provide time to rest, reflect, and fully absorb the experience between safaris. Watching wildlife in its natural habitat is both humbling and exhilarating — a reminder of the raw beauty of the natural world.
Rwanda — Kigali & Volcanoes National Park
Our journey concludes in Rwanda, beginning with one night in Kigali and time to experience this vibrant, welcoming city. We then travel to a luxury retreat near Volcanoes National Park, set among mist-covered mountains and lush rainforest.
During our two-night stay, we will embark on the highlight of the entire journey: a guided trek to observe endangered mountain gorillas in the wild. Spending time in the presence of these gentle, powerful animals is a profoundly moving, once-in-a-lifetime experience — quiet, humbling, and deeply unforgettable.
This journey is designed for travelers seeking more than a typical vacation. It is an opportunity to experience Africa’s extraordinary diversity — from cosmopolitan cities to remote wilderness — while creating memories that will stay with you long after you return home.
