If the venue was locked in, the logistics were handled, and every last detail was sorted—would you invite your students to join you on the yoga retreat-of-a-lifetime in the Greek Isles tomorrow?


That’s the question we ask the instructors we work with. Because the truth is, the only thing standing between you and hosting a yoga retreat in Greece is time, energy, and way too many moving parts.


That’s where we come in. At Get Lost, we help yoga teachers and wellness practitioners plan meaningful, unforgettable retreats in Greece—without having to figure it all out on their own.

“It was a totally hands-off operation. They handled all the logistics, so I could focus completely on my guests and our practice, without the usual stress of organizing a retreat.” – Maggie Rukus

Why Greece Is the Ultimate Retreat Destination

From crystal-clear waters to sacred ruins and warm, authentic hospitality, Greece offers everything a retreat leader could hope for. It’s a country deeply rooted in healing, nature, and human connection—ideal for creating meaningful group experiences.

Sail between islands for a multi-location retreat, settle into a serene mountain village, or host your yoga sessions by the sea. The settings we offer are curated to elevate your teachings and create a lasting impression.

“The yoga practice in hand-picked locations was transformative, offering breathtaking settings that deeply enhanced our sessions.” – Evan Watson

What Makes Hosting a Retreat Abroad So Challenging?

Dreaming up the retreat is the easy part. Executing it? Not so much.

Most instructors hit roadblocks like:

  • Sourcing the right venue with proper amenities

  • Handling bookings, transportation, and dietary needs

  • Marketing the retreat to their students

  • Managing payments, liability, and cancellation policies

  • Navigating unfamiliar logistics in a foreign country

“Working with the Get Lost team for my retreat was absolutely amazing! From the start, they were so supportive, providing all the tools I needed to boost my retreat marketing. The best part?
