About Kula Adventures
Hi! I'm Jodye, founder of Kula Adventures.
I create the kind of trips I want to take: incredible food, beautiful places, a little adventure, lots of laughs, and experiences you’ll remember for years.
The kind where you come home with great stories, new friends, and at least one moment you just can’t stop talking about.
And when you travel with Kula, you travel with me. I personally host every trip. You won’t book with me and then be handed off to someone else. I’m there for the adventures, the meals, the laughs, and everything in between.
Travel Deeper
Kula trips blend culture, food, nature, adventure, beautiful places to stay, and time to actually enjoy where you are.
That means fewer packed schedules and more space to linger at the table, on the trail, and in conversation.
The goal is simple: experience more, rush less, and come home feeling nourished rather than exhausted.
Local Matters
We stay in locally owned hotels, eat in local restaurants, and work with local guides, artisans, and small businesses whenever possible.
We also believe travel should give something back, so we support local communities and organizations in the places we visit.
Why Kula?
Kula means community, and it’s one of my favorite things about these trips.
Some guests come with someone they love. Many come alone. Somewhere along the way, strangers become friends.
There are shared meals, inside jokes, group texts, and friendships that continue long after the suitcases are unpacked.
Come without knowing anyone. You won’t feel like a stranger for long.
A Little About Me
I’m a traveler, yoga teacher, Pilates instructor, lifelong planner, and someone who genuinely loves creating experiences for people.
I’m the person who finds the little hotel, the restaurant down the side street, and the experience you might never have discovered on your own.
I don’t just love traveling.
I love creating the trip.
And now I get to do that for you.
Come With Us
You don’t have to wait until someone else is ready to travel. I’ll take care of the details. You just have to come curious!
Kula Adventures Guest Review!
My husband and I both attended Jodye’s very first Peru adventure/yoga retreat, and we are still feeling the effects of this magical land and Jodye’s magical ability to create love, joy and community wherever she goes!
We felt so safe and comfortable due to Jodye’s meticulous planning and the beautiful people that she employed, lifelong friends she acquired during her many trips to Peru. The hotels we visited were beautiful and cozy, with delicious, healthy, fresh food, amazing massage, hot tea waiting in your room, fires in the courtyard. Jodye had everything prepared and booked in advance, allowing the entire group to effortlessly enjoy beautiful hikes, drives, train rides, meals, parades, picnics, and meanderings through skinny, stone streets.
My husband and I would never have planned a trip like this for ourselves and I am so grateful for all of Jodye’s hard work and passion to make it a really magical experience. I couldn’t understand why Jodye would choose to visit Peru so often, with all of the amazing places in this world to visit. Now I understand! I have had only a tiny taste of Peru and all its miracles and I can’t wait to return!

Kula Adventures Guest Review!
This trip was one of the most amazing experiences of my entire life. THANK YOU JODYE!
Jodye's thoughtfulness and attention to detail made the whole process easy from the moment I booked. If I needed anything at any time, Jodye was there.
This trip exceeded every expectation I had. I feel like I got to really experience Peru, not just visit or see, but experience. This trip was packed full of adventure and fun! From cooking classes, to hiking, to fancy picnics, to dancing on trains with a live band, the fun didn't stop! And neither did the food!
Our local guides Hugo and Abraham with Cusco Local Friend were so knowledgeable and kind, and I learned so much about Peruvian culture and history.
Peru is amazing, and this retreat is amazing! I am forever grateful for Jodye and this experience!!

Kula Adventures Guest Review!
"This was the most magical trip I've ever been on! Jodye is such a loving, thoughtful, and passionate leader. I felt so well taken care of by Jodye and she provided all the information I needed to be well prepared for the trip.
Over the course of 12 days, our retreat group became a family. Jodye crafted community so beautifully and in the most beautiful, sacred place--Peru! Her knowledge of the area, and with the help of her loving local friends, cultivated breathtaking experiences for us that I will never forget.
I will absolutely be signing up for more of Jodye's yoga adventure retreats in the future! Thank you to Jodye Hall, owner and founder of Kula Adventures, for carefully planning and hosting this life-changing retreat." - Marissa L.
