11 Day Retreat
Price & Details
We offer healing and learning diets for various lengths of stay. You can choose from our two most popular packages, or contact us for pricing on longer retreats. Whether you're experienced with ayahuasca or new to it, our 6-day retreat offers a perfect opportunity to deepen your journey or be introduced to the medicine for the very first time. A stay of 11 days or more provides enough time to do a master plant dieta.
Please book your reservation at least one week in advance with a 50% deposit. This gives you plenty of time to prepare for your stay.
A Comfortable Space for your Healing Journey
Our private cabins, or tambos, are designed to be your sanctuary during your healing journey. Built with a traditional thatch roof, wood and screen walls, and hardwood floors, each tambo ensures privacy and comfort. They include a private, en-suite bathroom with a sink, shower, and dry toilet for your daily use and floral baths. The tambos are fully enclosed with mosquito screens, and are set apart from each other by natural vegetation to provide a sense of isolation and deep privacy.
We offer three types of dietas: the ayahuasca dieta, the healing dieta, and the learning dieta. In traditional Shipibo practice, the goal is to consume only the nourishment required to sustain oneself—no more and no less.
The meal plan for the healing and learning dietas is highly restrictive, consisting of traditional staples like grilled fish in its natural peel and small amounts of green plantains. The ayahuasca dieta, for those attending ceremonies but not taking a master plant, is our least restrictive option.
Guests following the ayahuasca dieta will enjoy a clean, healthy, and traditional diet featuring delicious meals typical of the jungle with a wider variety of locally sourced fruits, vegetables, and fish. Our kitchen is happy to accommodate vegetarian and vegan preferences for all dietas.
Please ensure your flight lands in Puerto Maldonado, Peru (PEM) no later than 5:00 PM. We'll meet you at the airport upon arrival and take a taxi to the riverside. From there, we'll take a 30-minutes boat ride to the trail leading to our center. Arriving earlier in the day allows for a leisurely 15-minute walk through the rainforest to the center. Don't worry about your bags—your luggage will be carried for you. The cost of all transportation (airport to center and back) is included in your retreat package.
Ceremonies will be held in our maloka (ceremonial house) starting at 7 p.m. The onanyas (Shipibo shaman) and assistants will guide you in your healing experience during each ceremony. To ensure each guest receives personal attention and support, our ceremonies are limited to a maximum of 12 guests at a time. Each ceremony is facilitated by one or two experienced shamans and one or two assistants, depending on the group size.
All guests will receive floral baths (amount varies depending on the length of stay). Floral baths are a lovely healing experience that will supplement your ceremonies and healing dieta.
