About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

This immersion is an invitation to enter the heart of the Amazon and walk alongside the Huni Kuin people, guardians of an ancient spiritual tradition rooted in the living intelligence of the forest.

Held in the traditional village of Boa Vista, this experience offers a rare opportunity to live and learn directly within an indigenous community. The days are shaped by ceremony, sacred songs, plant medicines, shared meals, silence, laughter and the rhythm of life in the jungle.

The immersion is guided by respected Huni Kuin pajés and held with care and responsibility by the OsolTribe and Shamanzon teams. Each participant is personally accompanied throughout the process, with attention to physical, emotional and energetic integration.

This is not a touristic retreat. It is a conscious and respectful immersion that requires openness, humility and commitment. Participation directly supports the Boa Vista village, contributing to the wellbeing of the community and the continuity of their traditions.

This journey is for those who feel a genuine calling to heal, to learn, and to reconnect with the deeper truth that lives within.

IMPORTANT: THERE WILL BE NO ADDITIONAL CHARGES FOR PLANT MEDICINE

Accommodation

Accommodation during the immersion is simple, authentic and deeply connected to life in the forest. Participants will sleep in hammocks, as is traditional in the Amazon, allowing the body to rest naturally while staying attuned to the rhythms of the jungle. There are two types of accommodation during the experience. At certain moments, we stay in more secluded forest spaces dedicated to silence, introspection and ceremonial work. At other times, we sleep in shared community areas within Boa Vista village, closer to daily life, music, laughter and the presence of the Huni Kuin families. Both environments are held with care and respect, offering a balance between depth and integration. This way of living supports a grounded, present and embodied experience, inviting participants to reconnect with simplicity, nature and community.

Life changing retreat, thank you Shamanzon ✨
I don’t really have the words for the experience, it was just incredible from start to finish! 🤩

The organisation was great, with a pre-trip call with the very lovely and very knowledgeable Paula to go through the necessary info. The whole team are just lovely, Xavi, Danny, Martín were all so easy to be around for the weekend. It’s clear how much they love and have passion for what they do and their energy is amazing 🔥

I adored the house we stayed in, the views are out of this world and the team of wonderful people looking after us felt like family, I miss them already! ❤️ Taita Isaias was incredible, again, you can tell he just cares so much for everyone he meets through his work, he’s a very special soul 💫

The ceremonies themselves were just breathtaking. I can’t explain it, but I know I’ll never be the same version of me again ✨ enlightened, expanded and more full of love than ever before 💞 thank you so so much team Shamanzon 🙏 I’m so happy to have found you and I will be back!

Lots of love, Lois 🤍
