I had an incredible time at Fuerteventura under the fantastic care of Darja and Bas on my recent surfing and yoga retreat! It was everything I needed and more while... read more in between jobs.

Right from the moment I arrived at the airport, the theme of this much needed break was “no rush/ no problems only solutions/ everything is taken care of”. It’s no wonder my 9-day trip turned into 12-day trip (would’ve been longer if I didn’t have commitments back home to get back to), and pretty much everyone else on the trip stayed few extra days toothat says a lot about this beautiful island, the fantastic weather, the incredible company of likeminded people on the trip, and of course, Darja and Bas going above and beyond ensuring the activities (surfing, yoga, hiking, ebiking) were all top-notch.

I have returned with great fondness and appreciation for the island, all that it offers and of course, surfing. I know I’ll be back as there’s no one better to learn staying from than Bas..so why not!

  I actually did a full retreat with Darja and Bas. It was fantastic, I must say! I felt like I was living as a local in the area and... read more enjoyed strolling up along the beach every morning for my yoga class. I love that everyone was staying in various venues hotels or apartments, depending on their choice of service needs. We all met up at classes, hikes, or trying out other things to do and for picnics in the sand dunes and on the beach for breakfast and sunset sometimes. And as the week went on; it was nice to be able to arrange meeting up with various others in the group if you fancied company for lunch or dinner. Six of us enjoyed a beautiful Christmas dinner for Christmas Day - it was super for those who aren't so into the traditional Christmas or just looked to get away to try something new for a year. As we were in a bunch of single people from all over the world and we booked a stunning restaurant, so it felt very special. The hikes were really enjoyable, the sacred spot with the little chapel nestled into the middle of the rocks especially, will be one carved into my mind forever, with such an unusual landscape and view from the top. It was amazing! Darja and Bas are a beautiful couple who thought of everything for us as a group of single travelers and I felt they could offer us anything we needed to make the trip one to remember, for sure. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to get away from it all for a week or two and keep a little active or choose to have some quiet time in the mix. But also choosing if you feel like taking a day out for yourself, great freedom in this type of retreat 🙂 Would love to return again one day and try out EBiking and surfing.

  Perfect afternoon tour in Fuerteventura! - We had a wonderful time on the e-bike tour with Bas! He did a great job sizing the bikes and explaining how e-bikes operate so that our family of 4... read more (including 10 and 13 year old) newbies were comfortable. Bas does a nice job tailoring the route based on group experience and ability. We really had a nice time - couldn’t recommend this tour enough! Great photos and memories - thank you!

  works well for active and openminded couples  - fantastic vacay!!
we went there insecure if this kind of vacation concept works for couples. it does!!
it was a wonderful experience, easy going, full of adventure, lots of activities... read more and fun perfect for active people 🙂

  Went above and beyond - outstanding! - The folks at FuerteXperience went above and beyond, and my time in Fuerteventura was fantastic. Bas & Darja really love what they do, and it shows. They are very organised,... read more and somehow managed to create a tailored itinerary for each participant a varying levels of fitness. Lots of little unexpected extras here and there, and they struck the right balance between organised activities, flexibility & our independence. Biking across the island was fantastic.

They really shared their passion for the island and I’ll be back for sure!

  What a fantastic 4 sessions we had with Bass. He found nice waves for 2 kids surfing 1st time and great waves for us intermediates. I’ve been with big schools... read more (even this week twice) where felt like being and atm, don’t do that, go with somebody who can prepare sessions around you, fuertexpirience is definitely one of best! And Bass thanks for all the videos and here just a print screen from one of them!

  Awesome Adventure - Holiday Highlight  - We booked this last minute and so glad we did. Absolutely brilliant trip with Bas. The hike up Las Penitas was stunning - the views from the top were so... read more worth the climb. Bas’s knowledge was amazing and he let us go at our own pace. Don’t be put off if your not big hikers as you can go as slow as you like. We then had lovely sandwiches before heading into the Ajuy Caves which finished off an amazing morning. So, so pleased we did this trip as we wanted to try something different. Would 100% recommend to anyone. Thank you Bas from Claire and Chris 😊

  Had an amazing week & would definitely recommend. Loved the daily yoga on the beach & the hiking & biking. Darja & Bas were great hosts and are always available... read more if you need them. Enjoyed the hikes with Ricardo who had a wealth of information about the island. Will definitely book again

  I had a yoga and hiking retreat with Fuertexperience and I have to say that maybe was my best experience as a consumer. Fuerteventura is amazing, the accommodation was very... read more good too. The excursions and the experiences was absolutely interesting, funny and relaxing. But the real strength of Darja and Bas is the ability of taking care of their guests. We were a party of eight, coming from different countries, nobody knew each other. They had made sure we became a group, providing us a lot of good memories of the free time we decided to spent together, but also they gave us a lot of freedom and choices. Someone wanted to go surf, someone one else preferred to hike? No problem, they arranged everything for us. Never a mistake, never a problem, never a delay!!! I absolutely recommend Fuertexperience, especially for solo travellers. You can enjoy all your freedom but always with a warm safety net!

  Hi,
I booked 1 week yoga and hiking holidays with Daria and Bas in December and then could easily extend my stay 🙂
It is easy to meet other (international)... read more travellers and you can book other activities to your stay, but without the feeling of mass tourism. Corralejo is a nice little town with lots of activities, beach, shopping, nice restaurants and lovely bars to enjoy. Daria and Bas care a lot about their guests, help out with everything and probably even make the impossible possible to ensure that everyone has a fabulous holiday.
If you want to have some nice relaxing holidays without doing tons of research I highly recommend booking this retreat. But be warned, you probably don't want to leave after one week, so make sure your flight bookings are flexible.
