Retreat Highlights
- 9 REASONS WHY CHOOSE OUR AYAHUASCA RETREAT
- 1. Strong, respected shaman and safely conducted ceremonies
- Ayahuasca ceremonies at our center are led by shaman Luis – an exceptionally strong, proven and deeply respected healer with many years of practice. His leadership is clean, safe and very effective.
- During each ceremony, he performs a deep cleansing that supports healing and removes negative energies.
- I took the utmost care in choosing a shaman, because I know very well how crucial it is who leads the ceremony. Luis can help not only on a spiritual level, but often even where modern medicine cannot cope.
- Experienced assistants are always present during the ceremonies to ensure your comfort and safety.
- 2.Healing, not tourism
- We are not a commercial tourist center. Our retreats are focused on genuine healing, and we do not accept people who want to try ayahuasca merely as an experience.
- 3. Small group = privacy, individual approach and family atmosphere
- We accept a maximum of 8 participants per retreat so that everyone gets enough attention and support.
- A smaller group naturally creates an intimate, safe and deeply personal environment in which people quickly relax and can fully open up to the process. Very often friendships are formed here that continue even after the program ends.
- Privacy, peace and individual care are one of the greatest advantages of our center.
- 4. Tobacco, cleansing ceremony before Ayahuasca ceremonies
- The day before the ayahuasca ceremonies, we give you water tobacco, which is drunk in a certain amount and helps to remove bad and heavy energies, deeply cleanses the mind and body and prepares you for the healing work with ayahuasca. Thanks to this cleansing, which usually involves vomiting after drinking, your processes can be much deeper, clearer and also easier in the beginning.
- 5. Carefully maintained hygiene, cleanliness and care for your health
- My own negative experience in other centers taught me how incredibly important safe hygiene is when working with ayahuasca.
- That is why we have set standards that are not common in the jungle:
- Clean and regularly cleaned mattresses
- Duvets, pillows and blankets washed in the washer and dryer
- 100% drinking water from certified gallons
- Food prepared in proper hygienic conditions
- What is a common standard for you is definitely not a matter of course in the Amazon jungle — that is why it is our huge advantage.
- 6. A program full of authentic activities (not just ceremonies)
- Most ayahuasca centers only offer ceremonies.
- However, we create a full-fledged, varied and deep program that combines treatment with knowledge of the Amazon.
- The program includes, for example:
- hot spa
- rafting
- trip to the Grand Canyon
- trip through the lagoon – visit to Monkey Island
- visit to the Kichwa community, etc.
- We are very lucky that the center is located in a location that is literally surrounded by these activities.
- Everything is close, authentic and safe.
- 7. Perfect organization = no worries
- From the moment you arrive in Ecuador until your departure, everything is taken care of. You don’t have to worry about anything at all.
- We provide:
- accommodation
- transport from Quito and back
- translation
- the entire program
- meals
- You just enjoy the treatment, nature and peace.
- 8. Fair prices, high quality and maximum satisfaction
- We set prices to be affordable, fair and at the same time correspond to the high standard of our center.
- We never skimp on safety or comfort.
- Our goal is not to maximize profit, but your real change, healing and satisfaction.
- That is why people come back to us and recommend us further.
- 9. Ayahuasca has its greatest power where it actually grows
- Ayahuasca is an Amazonian medicine and drinking it in the place where it grows has a fundamental impact on the power and quality of the entire experience.
- In Ecuador, Ayahuasca works much more intensively because it is connected to the energy of the jungle, the local soil, the tradition and the shamanic lineage that leads it.
- Undergoing Ayahuasca directly in the Amazon is the purest and most effective way.
About this Retreat
Your Guides
Ayahuasca shaman Luis is the spiritual heart of all Ayahuasca ceremonies at our center. At 74 years old, he seems incredibly vital. His physical and spiritual energy is reminiscent of a young man. There is something in his eyes – deep, with an unusually blue ring around the pupils – that cannot be described in words. Strength, peace, mystery. Luis comes from a traditional lineage of respected healers. He is the son of the well-known Yachak Don Ramón, and his path was destined even before his birth. His family always knew he would become a shaman.
Luis has dedicated his entire life to healing. When you look into his eyes, it often feels as if he is from another world. His energy is very strong, calm, and deeply grounded.
He has been working with ayahuasca since the age of eight and underwent many years of shamanic training under the guidance of his father. From a very young age, under the influence of ayahuasca, he learned how to work with energy, how to deeply perceive a person, and how to develop healing techniques that he now shares with others.
His learning did not happen in classrooms, but in the heart of the Amazon. He trained in sacred places – under waterfalls, in caves, on mountain peaks, and at hidden lagoons, where he formed a deep connection with nature and medicinal plants. He also visited different communities and worked with various shamans, even in other countries, gaining valuable experience from each of them.
Today, he has more than 60 years of experience and has guided hundreds of people through deep transformational processes. His work is deeply rooted in tradition, experience, and respect for the medicine he works with.
Each participant receives individual attention. During the ayahuasca ceremony, everyone comes to him for a personal cleansing, which lasts approximately 30 minutes. While working under the influence of ayahuasca, Luis uses healing songs (icaros), mapacho, cleansing water, and plant energies to help release blockages, clear energy, and open space for real transformation.
His cleansings are deep, precise, and guided with sensitivity – always responding to what each person needs in that exact moment.
Luis’s approach is direct, powerful, and at the same time deeply human. He combines traditional shamanic knowledge with a profound understanding of the inner processes of each individual.
Ceremonies under his guidance are not only intense, but also stable and safe. Everything is held with respect, calmness, and clear guidance.
The most important part, however, cannot be fully described in words – everyone who comes here understands this experience for themselves.
A shaman with this level of experience and integrity is rare today. We are truly grateful that Luis leads the ceremonies in our center.
Ayahuasca under his guidance supports not only emotional and spiritual healing, but can also help with more serious life and health challenges.
In our center, he has already helped many people – including a woman with chronic leukemia, whose condition significantly improved through his work. These stories show that traditional shamanic healing can bring relief where modern approaches often cannot find answers.
Important info: If you want to treat yourself with minor problems such as pain, infections, inflammation, infertility and others, you have to drink special herbs prepared by the shaman, when during the Ayahuasca ceremony he will have to treat you specially after cleansing. It depends on the type and severity of the problem. Usually 1-2 extra treatments are enough. This treatment is at an additional cost. Just inform me by email, where we will consult everything.

Then you will have an introductory meeting. We will get to know each other and talk about what awaits us in the coming days.
Cleansing with traditional Amazonian water tobacco
To best prepare you for the ayahuasca retreat, part of the introductory process is the administration of traditional Amazonian water tobacco, which is drunk in a certain amount. This sacred drink has been used for centuries to deeply cleanse the body and mind.
Tobacco supports the release of physical and energetic blocks. It can cause purgative vomiting in some people, and it has a more subtle effect on others – but it always works throughout the body and helps create the ideal conditions for a safe and deep ceremony.
Tobacco also helps to remove very heavy energies that people sometimes carry from their daily lives. Thanks to this, participants are much better prepared for the ayahuasca work itself and we can avoid the more demanding processes during the ayahuasca ceremony.

Schedule
Every day at Amayas Ecuador offers a meaningful combination of healing, integration, adventure and connection with the Amazon rainforest.
Our retreat center is located in an exceptional area, close to many of the most beautiful places and activities in the region. While participants experience traditional ayahuasca ceremonies and cleansing practices, they also have the opportunity to explore the Amazon and enjoy a new experience almost every day.
Depending on the length of the retreat, the program may include river rafting, swimming at our private river beaches, visiting a spectacular canyon and waterfall, exploring an Amazonian cave, discovering a cacao farm by boat, visiting a Kichwa community, meeting monkeys in their natural environment, enjoying thermal baths and relaxing at a private spa.
On ceremony days, the schedule is calmer and includes plenty of time for rest, preparation, a traditional herbal sauna and personal reflection. After each ceremony, participants can share their experiences and receive guidance and support.
Our guests often tell us that these activities help them relax, clear their minds and enjoy the healing process in a more natural and balanced way. This combination of deep healing work and unforgettable Amazonian experiences is one of the things that makes our retreats so special.
All excursions and activities listed in your chosen retreat program are included in the price. Participation is completely optional—if you do not feel like joining an activity, you are always welcome to stay at the retreat center, relax in a hammock, visit our private river beaches or simply enjoy the peaceful jungle surroundings.
