My 5 reasons to choose Pulse Tours

1) Positive and open atmosphere

In my experience with Ayahuasca in U.S. and Canada, I often notice a sense of negativity surrounding it, almost as if people think that, as this is called a ?medicine?, it should be on reserved for the sick. Now, while Aya can certainly do wonders for people in desperate need, I asked myself: Should a source of great love and wisdom not be available to everyone?

Pulse Tours stands strong in this belief and offers a place of positivity and growth for ALL. On my journey, I have met both soldiers with PTSD, people with life traumas, as well as inspired artists, passionate musicians and successful entrepreneurs. Whoever and wherever they were in life, they all reached the next level here.

2) Safety, comfort and adventure

Pulse Tours has created a retreat in the heart of the Amazon out of the vision to bring the best of South American healing tradition and innovate it with positive modern Western elements. They have created an epic sanctuary with the perfect balance of nature, healing, adventure, fitness, nutrition and comfort.

The ?Ayahuasca Adventure Center? resonates with a strong and positive spirit of healing and adventure. They organize daily adventure trips which give context to the experience, by exploring the vast jungle, surrounding villages and swimming the Amazon river.

The facilities are very comfortable, with large, soft beds and practical amenities such as proper washrooms, high speed wi-fi and even a full fitness facility. I was impressed by the advanced nutrition program that gives visitors the option of having either the traditional Ayahuasca ?dieta? or a more relaxed version, focused on proper nutrition, tasty jungle food and healthy energy. Being in the care of their nurse, a U.S.-trained medic with the warmest smile I have ever seen, made me feel safe and it was reassuring to know we were close to a village and only a short boat ride away from a large Peruvian city with advanced care facilities. This made the Ayahuasca Adventure Center quickly feel like a home, away from home.

3) Ayahuasca quality

The founder of Pulse Tours has a rich background in adventure tourism. He has explored South America extensively over the last decade and a half and has attended close to a hundred Ayahuasca ceremonies with dozens of different shaman healers. As such, he knows first hand what constitutes a qualitative and meaningful Ayahuasca encounter and has handpicked their shaman because of his rich experience, loving personal attention and hard work ethic. Their shaman definitely resonates the positive healing and growth that Pulse Tours stands for.
The quality of the shaman goes hand in hand with the quality of the Ayahuasca brew and here, the master shaman makes it in its most authentic and pure form with the only the two ingredients that should ever be in it: the Ayahuasca vine and Chacruna leaf.

The combination of shaman and the brew makes for an authentic, pure and powerful experience that resonates with strength, healing, learning and love.

4) Community and personal attention

The team at Pulse really understands the power of community. From the very start, I got welcomed into a warm group of like-minded individuals with whom I created a deep connection with over the course of my journey. Going through an intense growing experience like this and being able to share it with a close group of caring people helped me tremendously. I felt a sense of caring support and personal attention and found it incredibly useful to hear other people?s perspective. This made me feel part of something bigger and left me with lifelong friendships and a newfound spiritual side.

Another example of how Pulse Tours embraces community is their strong online presence that seeks to connect travelers, operators and seekers alike. It is amazing to stay in touch with the people I have met and see them continue their work and help each other to learn, connect and grow. The experience inspires many to create articles, poetry, pictures, music and even documentaries (e.g. Google ?drinking the jungle?, it was filmed at the center!). Newcomers are welcome to connect and to ask away, in the spirit of welcoming openness.
It is amazing to continue being part of this caring, creative and passionate community.

5) A place of Love

From the very first moment I connected with Pulse Tours, I felt a strong, honest and loving energy that made me feel completely welcome and filled me with trust and confidence.

The amount of pure, sincere love I feel from the team, until this very day, is a testament of how much they dedicate their life to heal people, accelerate personal growth, give life meaning and work tirelessly towards making the world a better place every day.

From the glorious example of masculinity that is Dan, to the healing, loving and motherly nature of his partner Tatyana, and the caring and endlessly giving energy of their experienced nurse / medic Brendan, these individuals are shining examples of the most beautiful things humanity has to offer.

Dan, Tatyana, Brendan, thank you an infinite
