Discover the perfect Ayurveda package
Each Ayurveda retreat offers different Ayurveda packages from which to choose. Ayurveda wellness programs give you well-being and relaxation with, for example, oil massages.

The type of Ayurveda program you would pick often also determines its duration. Though you can book wellness Ayurveda programs as a short break, in the form of an Ayurveda day treatment or an Ayurveda weekend, the duration of Panchakarma programs is usually set for a longer period of time, starting at absolute minimum of seven nights.
