    In 2015 I contacted with them. They told me pay in advance. I paid $700. Later they said they cancel it. The men whom I was talking said Ibo Rao will sent you money back. But Ibo Rao told they will not sent me any money and that men should, but they split and he went into jungle… Later some of Ibo Rao sent me only 200 EURO.
    BE CAREFUL

    I go regularly to Peru and take ayahuasca since 7 years now.
    It was a great surprise for me to discover Ibo Rao, i’ve been there for 5 weeks the last oct/nov and it was just perfect.
    Far from the business and tourism of ayahuasca in Iquitos, i discovered a complete Shipibo Conibo family of shamans, who were totally devoted for the medicine.
    Actually it’s a rare opportunity to have ceremonies like that with at least 5 to 7 shamans in the maloca and to know that most of them are from the same family, so you can imagine the energy?
    Maestra Justina is like a second mom for everybody there, so at the end it was a little bit hard for me to leave, but i’ll come back for sure?.

    I spent 2 weeks in Ibo Rao a few months ago, when it was just opening. I volunteered and took medicine. I was an amazing experience. The chamans, all the family, and Benito, are really truthworthy, and I felt welcomed at once. During the ceremonies, you feel like you’re being looked after. Beautiful Icaros from maestra Justina, moreover!
    Oh, and the location is great : far from the more turistic and busy places like San francisco or near Iquitos, it’s next to a small and beautiful village, quite unknown for the moment, and it has hot springs you should definitely go to!

    I wanted to take medicine in an authentic place, I wasn’t disappointed!

    I visited the centre in October 2014.

    The shamans that work here are all in family. When I first met them it was in a village not really suited for this kind of journey I was going through. Benoit have created this amazing centre to hold a proper space for their mind-blowing healing power. It is a very good opportunity to get to work with these authentic shamans in a space that is capable of holding you while you go through your process.
