What Past Guests are Saying
“Sara and Sam are more than just guides and instructors - they truly care about everyone having the best experience.”
“Tulum was my second international trip with Alchemy, which in and of itself is a testament to how awesome they are. The lodging was fairly deep into the jungle and I LOVED the seclusion, way from the hustle and bustle of downtown Tulum. The schedule was packed with activities while having enough down time to chill out and unplug if needed.
- Jon
“More than anything, I am so grateful for the amazing community and new friends that have become part of my life.”
“The Alchemy excursion to Nicaragua was incredible. It was my perfect vacation-yoga, HIIT, and surfing-all in a serene setting. The villas were beautiful and the food was delicious. We didn’t want for anything-Sara and Sam were true professionals and so much fun!”
- Sarah
“I especially loved all the out of property adventures, from the boat day to surfing to the outdoor beach workout.”
“We had such a great group of people in Tulum, it was amazing to be surrounded by such a fun loving and down-for-adventure community. The workout classes and yoga were so fun - - Sara and Sam are amazing humans and are really there making sure you have a blast.”

“The Alchemy crew put together an AMAZING trip. Their attention to detail and flexibility are evident in the way they truly care about your experience.
