"Perhaps the best ceremony facilitation I have experienced. Beautiful, caring, warm, slow, safe. I had a pretty much flawless and profound experience with Avalon. I would highly recommend it."

"I attended a bufo retreat held by the lovely Ness Dalga and it was a truly life-changing experience. The whole team was welcoming and accommodating from the second I signed up for the retreat and I was feeling safe the whole way to the end of the retreat. The ceremony was done with such care and warmth and attention, I always felt the caring energy from the staff. I cannot recommend it enough!"

"I had my first Bufo experience in Barcelona with the Avalon team on November 8th,2024. Ness and her team were incredible in guiding us through the journey! For me, it was a transformative experience, starting with meditation and leading to the Bufo inhale. At first, I felt shaking and anxiety, but then I sensed my mind and soul separating from my body. I heard a voice inside me saying, “Now, go back.” It felt like every cell in my body was infused with information, and I revisited a traumatic experience I thought I had already overcome. The journey then took me to a vision of my future “bohemian wedding,” where all my friends and family were filled with joy, and Ness, our shaman, was singing her songs. I woke up with tears of happiness, feeling deeply relieved and filled with hope. Thank you all for this incredible experience! My takeaway was to embrace my feelings, knowing that the divine has us all✨✨✨. I’m sending AYO to each of 🤍"

"I recently attended a 4 day Holistic Ayahuasca Retreat with Avalon in Barcelona, and it was truly life-changing. From start to finish, everything about this experience was carefully curated and incredibly powerful. The Avalon team was not only professional but genuinely caring, supportive, and deeply loving. Each session felt thoughtfully designed to guide us through profound healing and transformation. One aspect that stood out was how much emphasis they placed on integration. The team made sure we had the tools and support to process our experiences, which I now realize is absolutely essential for getting the most out of a retreat like this. The accommodations were exceptional as well. The setting was peaceful and surrounded by nature, creating a perfect environment for introspection. The facilities were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, providing a safe haven to relax and recharge. Having shamans from the Amazon guiding our sessions brought an authenticity and power to the experience that I’ll never forget. Their wisdom and presence helped create an atmosphere of trust, which was crucial to delving deep into the journey. On top of all that, the food was incredible. The chef put so much care and creativity into every meal, which was nourishing and delicious. Sharing meals with everyone fostered a sense of community, and I left with strong connections with people I feel truly bonded to. It was amazing to witness each person receiving exactly what they needed. By the end, it was clear that everyone had grown in profound ways, leaving as renewed and better versions of themselves. I wholeheartedly recommend Avalon to anyone who feels called to this journey—it’s an experience that will stay with you forever. "

"Amazing team, amazing experience. I felt safe, listened-to, and thoroughly supported. Thank you. "

"If you are looking for an extremely structured and safe company to use, absolutely consider Avalon. The Shaman's they picked in my retreat were PHENOMENAL! They take great care in creating a program that allows you to go fundamentally and intrinsically deep in your healing, leaving you with a toolkit to delve into when you are integrating. Chef's kiss. It was a transformational process. In some ways life changing and in equal measure life affirming. HOWEVER... In my group there were certain individuals who were overwhelming and overbearing. Not only in the ceremonies but in every activity, including integration. Despite the groups outspoken view (we were told we could share without judgement), management decided to protect their brand and management structure instead of finding other ways to allow for certain overbearing individuals to have their experiences away from the main group. I say this on 4 accounts of accountability from management. The forth one i can allow some leniency, but it needs to be said nevertheless. I will also say this. Many of us and you reading this... "There is always a price to pay". Not all of us have endless funds and it is a serious commitment we are undertaking. 1. When i saw on the intake form "Do you agree to take a drug test" I took that very seriously and subject myself to extreme discomfort in the build up of the retreat in my diet phase. I took no drugs and stopped all my supplements, which normally made me feel fundamentally good in my day. No drug test took place and one member of the group admitted to be on anti depressants (admission of this was on the last day). This could have ruined the whole experience for us as we came to learn that the combination of anti-depressants and ayahuasca could be fatal. This was a huge oversight, especially as it felt the question asked was purely lip service. 2. Discernment was not applied in the interviewing process by management. Either the client in question lied about their personality or management did not ask deep enough questions to consider how individuals would impact the whole group. Furthermore, if management were lied to they should have had extra facilities to accommodate this, especially as the whole group bar none complained daily. Nothing was done. If you are reading this and on some level you know you lie about your personality, know that the majority will find out and some will have the courage to speak on the matter with INTEGRITY. Why else would be subject ourselves to such an experience. 3. We were told we could share our experiences without judgement and on the whole we could, however, when it came to speak our truth on specific individuals having an impact on ALL of our ceremonies it was met with a "spiritual cloud" to look within and assess whether in some way the deficit in our own understanding and area of healing needed more work. This was incorrect, misplaced and not delivered well. It jarred many souls' experiences. Energy never lies. 4. I wanted to share the above 3 points in my 1:1 session, but was challenged to think on whether the 1:1 was the right setting in which to share these thoughts. I pondered in silence and came to the conclusion that the uncomfortable amount of time it took for me to come to that conclusion that the 1:1 was not the right place. However, I did say to the facilitator to please arrange a time to hear my significant thoughts before the retreat ended in person, which was met with a commitment. The commitment never emerged. Therefore, i write this in full here. To note, I definitely don't mean 1 star, but in the world we live in many people read negative comments than positive, so here we are. "

"Avalon have thought of everything with love and care. I felt genuinely welcome and safe whilst being guided through my stay - Not just the ceremonies, but every activity and integration too. The team are warm and loving, the setting is beautiful - I would 100% recommend x"

"I want to say a huge thank you to the whole team at Avalon for everything that they did for my group and I over our 4 day ayahuasca retreat. Everything was perfectly planned from start to finish to create a safe and loving space where we could fully experience and integrate the powers of Uni (ayahuasca), and everybody did everything and anything they could to support us. A special thanks to our shaman Waxy Yawanawá and her daughters Hukê and Sanã, their care and guidance throughout was nothing short of amazing. If you have the chance to take part in a retreat here, do it. "

"I am so glad I chose Avalon for my first plant medicine experience. It was extremely well organised, the location was lovely, the food delicious and beautifully presented, the staff warm and caring. Waxy and her daughters were amazing and played, sang and took care of us during the Ayahuasca and Kambo ceremonies. The integration coaches created a safe space for us to share experiences and be vulnerable. Thank you so much. Blessings"

"I had an amazing week with incredible people. It was transformative and magical. The organization and the team were perfect. Everything was great. I couldn´t ask for more!!. A week of pure peace and love!!! I highly recommend Avalon! It changed my life for the great! Thank you Avalon team. It´s beautiful what you do!. Best "

"My wife and I recently attended our first ayahuasca retreat, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience, largely thanks to the incredible Avalon team (too many to mention all the names and yet I could not leave anyone out). From the moment we arrived, their warmth and authenticity made us feel at home. Each facilitator was not only skilled but genuinely cared about our well-being, creating an atmosphere of safety and support. The organization and the place itself were remarkable. Every aspect of the retreat was thoughtfully arranged. The facilitators were always present, ready to assist and guide us through both the challenging and uplifting moments, ensuring we felt supported every step of the way. We had the honor of working with Waxy Yawanawá as our shaman, alongside her daughters, whose presence added a profound depth to the ceremonies. Their authenticity and commitment to the process were palpable, making us feel privileged to be part of such a sacred journey. We are immensely grateful for the Avalon team and the community they fostered. They helped us navigate our experiences every step, reminding us that we were never alone on this path. The group was also fantastic. People really cared for one another and became unbelievably connected within just 4 days or retreat. Missing you guys already!"

"The retreat was everything that I hoped it would be: relaxing, caring and life-changing. The team are incredibly compassionate and friendly people who not only support everyone through their journey, but also help them feel that they belong to the greater human family. I would highly recommend to anyone who feels that they have become 'stuck' in life and/or is searching for meaning/purpose in a chaotic world."

"What can I say ?! I really found it a lifetime changing experience. I am normally a down te earth typical Dutch guy, and if you had asked me before then I would be .quite sceptical about something like this. But now looking back I would love to see that they could make this mandatory for all the leaders and politicians and even for the big corporate guys. I believe if they could do this, the world would look a lot different. Don’t get me wrong I am an entrepreneur as well and I am also a kapitalist. But I mean to say the changes they can maybe start to make are on a different kind of level. I can’t describe the ayahuasca experience it self that’s something what you have to experience yourself. So I don’t even go there. But what I can say if your thinking about doing it ?! DO IT ! And if you have the possibility to do it with the Avalon family.then do so. I could not have been in better hands. What a team ! It’s not just the Ayahuasca, it’s the total package. From the food, the talks, the accommodation, the massage, the yoga, the nature.and of course the bonding with the people. I have learned in 4 days more then in the last 10 years on so many levels. Just 1 more thing what I want to say what might people might think (at least I did) it’s just a company who wants to make money. And now I have witnessed it ! no it’s not.It are all really professionals who really want to help other people. And when you leave there then you also understand why they do it ! I didn’t get paid for this review. You can look me up on fb or insta. I have nothing to do with Avalon. Except that I had to change to experience what they do. "

"Susy was amazing during the bufo retreat, kind and caring and really supportive towards myself and the rest of the team, during and after the session had finished. Thank you so much Susy "

"I had a one to one phone call with Ammy at the beginning before deciding if I wanted to go with Avalon and straight away she made me feel comfortable, she listened to my story and answered all of my questions right up until the day of the retreat, I had many questions regrading the diet, where to eat in Barcelona and about the retreat itself and when ever i messaged she replied with answers. Ammy and the whole crew was amazing. Thank you so much "

"Ness was our shaman/ woman during the bufo retreat and she was absolutely amazing, so caring and passionate about her work, I felt so comfortable with her from the moment we met, she gave me a big hug and her energy was something else, such a beautiful person thank you so much Ness"

"I went to Barcelona on the 3rd of August 2024 for a bufo alvarius retreat with Avalon. I was extremely nervous about this one, I've done ayahuasca in peru in after following a calling back in 2022 and it was the most terrifying experience of my life, however it completely changed my life for the better in so many ways. After, I felt a calling for bufo so I spent some time doing my research which is very important with these kind of experiences and I came across Avalon with great reviews I decided to message and go for the one to one video call with Ammy which was great there and then, I decided to book the retreat in Barcelona Ammy made me very comfortable, she listened to my story of why I wanted this and she answered all of my questions. And continued to help me right up until the day of my retreat. When I arrived I was welcomed and made to feel very comfortable, I was very nervous but they really calmed my nerves, the facilitators and shaman very professional and after some meditation and breath work we did the bufo and it was the most incredible experience of my life, I instantly surrendered and they took good care of us, when I came back to my body I was laughing and smiling I felt amazing, and that wasn't the end of it, they then fed us delicious fruits and we then all shared our experiences with each other , we was all supposed to be there we helped one an other through the journey we was a family in this moment and it was beautiful. I highly recommend Avalon to anybody looking for healing with bufo. "

"It was beyond my imagination. The organisers looked after everyone tenderly."

"Lala has an exceptional talent for insight and guidance to brighten anyone's day."

"An amazing, loving and bubbly grandmother I never new I had."

"I had no idea what to expect coming to this retreat but now reflecting back I couldn't have picked a better place. The location, the team, the services and the atmosphere were all exceptional and literally mind blowing. I wish I could've stayed forever."

"N/A"

"Great yoga instructor, fantastic communication and great interpersonal skills."

"So full of life, happy and fun! Witty! Full of maternal energy and very caring!"

"The trip overall was really great. Well organised, clear schedule / itinerary, healthy food and nice to have a Europe-based retreat. The trip would have benefitted from more rest days between each ceremony rather than people being exhausted between ceremonies."

"It was such a beautiful treat as a first-timer to see that the shaman was a woman! When sitting at the altar, as she gives me the cup, I can't help but feel it's an angel, not a human being. Her face was lit by the candlelight. When she sang my entire body responded with all sorts of beautiful sensations. Her music brought me into my body like I've never experienced before. And when I had touch journeys, she was right there with me through it all. I am just so very lucky she was my shaman. OCAHE!"

"I can't say enough about this marvelous experience I had with Avalon. Everything was designed in such a way to make my journey a most wonderful one. I felt held and supported. For someone who has difficulty asking for help in the real world, this was an exercise of total surrender that I will hold close to my heart forever. I went full of fear and doubt if it would work for me, if it works at all etc... and I left with way more than I could ever expect. I was contemplating an ayahuasca retreat for around 8 or 10 years. I wish from the bottom of my heart that I had done it earlier. But all happens in good time. If I were to do it again, Avalon would be where I would go. The shaman, the music, the location, the venue, and the support team (those we met and those behind the scenes) were all so beautifully orchestrated into the most beautiful work of art to give us the experience of a lifetime. I highly recommend them. "

"Es war einer der schönsten abende die ich erfahren durfte 🕉️❤️🔥"

"Words cannot express how grateful I am to the people at Avalon/ WeAreAvalon.love for my incredible experience with Bufo/DMT. I had done quite a bit of research on possible locations and can say without question Avalon is the best there is. With any ceremony like this it's imperative to be in a safe, LEGAL loving environment with people you trust! From the safety screening process to the preparation calls to the ceremony with the medicine itself every step was designed for the optimal experience. BIG THANKS and MUCH LOVE to Ammy, Ness, Pierluigi and Lala for everything! "

"If you are reading this, you are in search of something - whether it is a way out of the darkness, a way to connect, a way to understand, a way to love; you have found a possible path. It takes courage to lift the vail, it takes courage to give yourself over to shaman, it takes courage to accept - if that feels right for you, Avalon will take care to nourish you with love. I cannot tell you what you will receive -- if you have any experience with psychedelics, you may already know that you are given what you need, not what you want. I can tell you my experience, up to this moment - the bufo is still vibrating and gifting me even now - I have been reborn as a child of the light and bathed in the love of the universe. These words are clumsy and inadequate; it is a special and beautiful gift. It can be daunting and overwhelming; if you feel ready to step into the light, you have arrived where you should be. Aho, my friend, come dance with us in the stars..."
