If staying for additional nights in Cusco or Sacred Valley"

Ayawaska Retreat (Not Included)

Choose from 1 day, 3 days, 1 week stays in the Sacred Valley.

For those whose hearts are stirred by mysteries not yet solved, whose spirits are drawn to the ancient whispers of the earth and stars — we invite you to continue the journey.

This additional journey is informal and will include traveling with Karolina but on your own with hotels and entrances, but I will lbe there in friendship and with advise on all the travel and stays. 

Informal  Leg 2 takes us beyond the Andes to Peru’s southern coast, where the desert meets the sea and the past blurs into the present.
We will sail to islands teeming with life, soar above the mysterious Nasca Lines — symbols so vast and enigmatic they have defied explanation for centuries — and walk the golden dunes of Huacachina, where the sands themselves seem to sing.

Together, we will visit vineyards nourished by sun and spirit, honor the heartbeat of Afro-Peruvian traditions at the historic Hacienda San José, and immerse ourselves in the timeless energy of Pachamama — Mother Earth — who reveals her secrets slowly, to those willing to listen.

This journey invites not only discovery, but connection:
Connection to the earth.
Connection to ancient peoples.
Connection to the infinite mysteries that dance just beyond our understanding — perhaps even across dimensions, as some quantum thinkers and ancient seers suggest.

Join us for this sacred extension of the Peru journey — a time to breathe deeply, wonder freely, and return home forever changed.

LATAM Airlines  LAX to LIM on July 10, 2025 at 9:30 pm.  Arriving to Lima morning of July 11 or arrive in LIMA July 9 or 10 earlier in day and explore the capital.

It is also recommended that you arrive a couple days early to acclimate to the high elevation as many people need 2-3 days to be able to function normally. If you do, I can send a taxi for you and you can join me in Urubamba as I will be there acclimating before the tour.
