There’s a misconception that Reading Retreats mean staying put the entire time, curled up indoors like a Victorian child with a fainting couch. Not quite. Most Reading Retreats blend exploration with generous downtime. Depending on our destination, we could wander historic towns and visit local wineries, or go ziplining and snorkeling before returning to a beautiful villa with a book when you’re ready.

Traditionally, reading and traveling don’t mesh. One is a slow-paced, indoor activity while the other is a fast-paced, adventurous activity. But when you go on one of our reading retreats, you can soak in a new city and a new book at the same time.
