A PILGRIMAGE THROUGH THE AMAZON & ANDES
Join us on a life-changing adventure!
Step into a two week, all inclusive immersion.
One week in the jungle — a full immersion with the medicines.
One week in the mountains — the integration, the grounding, the return.
This container has been woven with care, intentionally structured to hold you through every layer of your transformation.
Experience the beauty of both worlds, and the deep alchemy they awaken.

THE AMAZON JUNGLE
FIRST WEEK
𖡡 Paojilhuasca Medicine Camp // Iquitos, Peru.

After our week of immersion, we will retrace our steps — traveling back along the river and returning to Iquitos in time for our onward flight to Cusco.

TESTIMONIALS
IMPORTANT
𖦹 At the start of the retreat, we’ll meet at 7:30am at a restaurant in Iquitos for breakfast before boarding our private boat into the jungle. We recommend arriving in Iquitos at least one day prior to ensure a smooth start.
𖦹 If you’re unable to exchange into Peruvian soles beforehand, bring USD—these are easily exchanged locally. ATMs are available but may have fees and withdrawal limits.
𖦹 If you plan to extend your time in Peru, we suggest doing so after the retreat. The Sacred Valley is incredibly special, and many guests wish they had more time there.
