    I was few years ago in the first center where Ben the funder of Ibo Rao was running. It was an authentic experience with Shipibos shamans in deep pristine jungle. Ben is really kind and disposable for all the need we have. He is an intermediary between occidental and the shamans after so many years living with them in Peru. I had a really strong and beautiful experience in Ayahuasca ceremony which permit me to evolve positively and discover the spiritual world through the visions. Thank you Ben for this opportunity.

    The place is really nice and beautiful. I plan to come again this year with my girlfriend. Ibo Rao is in good development and working authentically. I recommand this place.

    I was in Ibo Rao in July 2014.
    I spent there four days in total and I had two ceremonies.
    The strongest and authentic experience I had with ayauhaska it was in Ibo Rao.
    The Icaros of Maestra Augustina and the other chamans are really powerful and the environment around is magic. Contamana is not popular like Iquitos or San Francisco but it is really authentic place, with beautiful and sincere people.
    definitely recommended! and thank you again Benito for the wonderful opportunity you gave me to know the holy plant.

    The good place, the good people. A center of medicine and serious apprenticeship, without compromise and the development potential of which is really extraordinary. It is in the measure of the three generations of maestros’ family which manages ceremonies there and which supervises the diets. In the measure also of this plot of land of extremely rich and diversified forest, at the same time isolated and approachable: as magic as practical. More than a center, it is a real native Shipibo community that forms slowly at Ibo Rao, with all that it contains of rich and authentic exchanges. Let alone the energy, the experience, the availability and the worship of Benoit, the founder of the center and the carrier of the real sustainable vision, intermediary’s role of which fluidifies perfectly the relations with the maestros on one hand but also with oneself in the deep work of this Medicine. In brief, not an address furthermore on the list but the Address, simply.
