We invite you to join us for a journey through the enchanting Dordogne Valley — a region of medieval villages, lush river valleys, and hidden caves. As with all our NHA Plant-Based Travel programs, this retreat will include salt, oil, and sugar-free meals prepared to NHA’s Gold Standard, so that every moment supports your health and values.

We are thrilled to begin planning this unforgettable journey and can’t wait to share the experience with our whole-food, plant-based community. While we are still finalizing the details—including accommodations, excursions, and pricing—we wanted to allow our community to get an early start and be among the first to hear about this exciting adventure.

We’ll stay in a private French villa, connect with nature and history, explore local artisan culture, and discover a unique elephant sanctuary — all while enjoying whole-food, plant-based living and meaningful community.

Highlights include:
• Gourmet, regional plant-based cuisine (vegan, whole food, SOS-free)
• Peaceful villa accommodations in the Dordogne countryside
• Walking tours of medieval villages, châteaux, and cave sites
• Visit to an elephant sanctuary (rescued from European zoos/circuses)
• Scenic river boat ride on the Dordogne
• Optional excursions: cave visits, local markets, canoeing
• Small group size (14–26) for personal attention
• Thoughtfully paced itinerary blending activity and downtime
