I joined Epic Retreats for a trip to Peru, and this was truly the trip of a lifetime! Every meal, transportation detail, hike and excursion was carefully planned and executed flawlessly. We visited the Amazon rainforest, Machu Picchu/Huayna Picchu, the Sacred Valley and the Rainbow Mountains, which were the destinations I wanted to see. What I didn’t expect was to be blown away by the hikes and destinations that were off the beaten path. We visited ruins that were twice as old as Machu Picchu and visited only by the locals. We hiked a part of the Inca Trail that tourists never visit. We meditated facing hanging glaciers in the Andes mountains. We learned about the spiritual beliefs of those who live in such a magical place, and I left this trip feeling at peace and one with Mother Earth. I shared a bond with my fellow travelers that can only be forged by sharing these once in a lifetime experiences. Thank you, Sunita. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

I have to say that this was one of the most fun trips I’ve taken in years. The house was well-appointed, and in a beautiful location, right on the lakeshore. Our chef was amazing, and prepared food that was a feast for the eyes as well as the taste buds. The hikes provided a nice balance of exercise, sightseeing and photo opportunities. I feel like I made some new friends, and I am looking forward to sharing more adventures with them soon!

I attended Sunita’s “Fitness & Yoga Retreat at Mayacamas Ranch in Calistoga. This was a fabulous retreat! We had planned events, meals and group time, but also time to do what we wanted in the area (mud baths and wine tasting :)). I loved my weekend away, it helped me get out of the busy city, recuperate and also get my workouts in all while laughing and enjoying the area.

I’m so happy to have been able to join Sunita’s first retreat. The location was beautiful and serene, just what I needed. That coupled with making new friends and being able to spend time with some of my long-time cherished friends made it even more special. The mix of relaxation and planned activities was perfect and I really appreciated how flexible Sunita was with the agenda. I loved the combination of hiking, yoga, and fun games! Sunita’s energy and passion for health and fitness, people, and fun times really shine.

I just returned from the best trip with Sunita and wanted to tell everyone about it. I saw some amazing photos that Sunita had shared from a previous trip to Big Sur and wanted to see if I could join on a similar trip.
Sunita organized a private retreat for me and two friends to hike in Big Sur. We had the best time ever! We stayed at a beautiful bed and breakfast in Pacific Grove. We hiked at Point Lobos, went down the coast for a unique lunch on the river, saw McWay Falls and had a fabulous dinner at Nepenthe. We saw pelicans, dolphins, deer, wild turkeys, beach, ocean and some of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen.
From start to finish, Sunita took care of everything and made us feel special. We had a relaxing and amazing time. I can’t wait for the next trip. Thank you, Sunita!!!

I am so happy I signed up for Sunita’s retreat! Sunita arranged a 2-night retreat full of beautiful sites and experiences in Marin. Food and cocktails were included. Delicious and hearty breakfasts as well as meticulously prepared gourmet dinners were made by Karin, the owner of the home that Sunita thoughtfully arranged for us to stay at in the town of Nicasio. The interior of the home itself was charming with lovely designer-like touches (and all designed by Karin). Each of the women attending the retreat had her own private room with lovely views of the reservoir and of Karin’s horses who walked freely around the property.
Sunita herself has a manner that instantly puts you at ease. She’s friendly and generous and has a calm and relaxed yet strong energy. I can’t say enough about the whole experience; especially the gorgeous 10 mile Pt. Reyes hike she took the group on! This full and fun weekend also included horse whispering, mead tasting, down-time and yoga. Thank you for the awesome experience Sunita!

Wow, what a treat this was! 5 stars! Sunita took care of all the details for us to have such an amazing and memorable private getaway with our girlfriends. From the retreat, magical treehouse, and Karin – the owner, to each meal prepared, it was such a treat! The planning, including a zoom pre-meet-n-greet, yoga, the hikes, the food, meadery tasting, and horse whispering was just something I’ll treasure forever! Thank you Sunita!

I just got back from another outstanding retreat by Sunita Goldstein. This was a hiking trip to Bryce, Escalante and Zion in Utah with the most amazing group of women. Sunita’s retreats are always unique and special. She organized everything for our week long trip to ensure it was perfect, starting with a detailed packing list and call to ensure we were prepared. The trip started and finished at a beautiful, historical bed and breakfast in St. George, Utah. We had a terrific guide to take us to the best areas of the national parks. We camped nearby our hiking locations and ate delicious fresh meals that were way beyond standard camping fare. The hiking was wonderful and we had great photo opportunities throughout the trip.
The best part of the trip was meeting an amazing group of women. We supported each other through the hard parts and shared great times, laughing all the way. I feel like I have a new group of friends for life.
Thanks, Sunita! I can’t wait for our next adventure.

Nature has always been my happy place, a source of deep joy that comes fromtruly following my passion. Out there, I felt completely free, able to drop all the daily worries and connect with something so much bigger than myself. Those trails weren’t just paths; they were my road to self-discovery and a spiritual awakening.

As I sat there meditating by the shore, staring at the horizon, something just clicked. It was a clear calling – I knew I had to share this incredible love for the outdoors with others who were looking for a similar experience. I wanted them to feel that same amazing sense of wonder that nature brought out in me. For me, exploring new trails wasn’t just about finding new places; it was about digging deep into my own soul, figuring out my purpose, and how I could really make adifference in the world. I truly believed in nature’s power to heal, change, and wake up the human spirit.

That whole hike, my mind was buzzing with ideas on how to help others experience the same joy and appreciation for nature that I held so dear. It was like inspiration was whispering, urging me to share the stunning views, the mesmerizing landscapes, and the priceless peace and quiet I was so lucky to find. I pictured myself leading groups on incredible journeys through nature, sharing everything I knew and loved about the outdoors, and helping them really connect with their inner selves.

And just like that, my lifelong dream started to become a reality. That very same year, I hosted my first-ever retreat in Napa Valley. I put together an itinerary that included hiking, meditation, yoga, and workshops focused on nature. My goal was to create a truly holistic experience that would nourish the body, mind, and soul.

The journey since then has been absolutely incredible, filled with countless trails and amazing places that just keep fueling my passion for exploration. Sharing this passion has been so rewarding. Seeing the profound transformations that happen when people truly immerse themselves in nature has been nothing short of miraculous. I’ve watched people overcome fears, rediscover joy, and tap into their inner strength. I’ve seen friendships bloom, hearts open, and lives change. I’m truly dedicated to continuing to share my love for nature and helping others find their own paths to peace, joy, and self-discovery.

I followed my heart… and it has taken me on an amazing adventure. I am delighted to share my passion with you!
