About this retreat

Set on a 23-hectare private reserve beside the pristine Piatúa River in Ecuador's Amazon, this five-day retreat offers two ayahuasca ceremonies guided by an experienced indigenous elder—either a Kichwa yachak or a Shipibo maestro. Each ceremony includes a personal cleansing (limpia) using traditional plants and techniques, and the following morning brings a guided integration session with English translation so you can ask questions and process your experience. Before each ceremony, you'll take part in an aromatic flower bath to cleanse and align your energy. Beyond the ceremonies, the retreat weaves in the surrounding rainforest and local culture: guided jungle walks with a Kichwa guide who explains medicinal plants, Kichwa music and body painting, handicraft workshops, and time to rest and bathe in the sacred Piatúa River. Groups are kept small—no more than 12 participants—with a trained, sober support team present throughout every ceremony. Guests stay in simple, clean bamboo cabins with private rooms, mosquito nets, hot showers, and solar-powered electricity. A detailed PDF guidebook is provided before arrival to help you prepare thoroughly. This is serious traditional work, not a tourist activity, and a health screening is required before participation.
