Ayahuasca Retreat Reviews — Helping You Stay Safe with 5,000+ Independent Reviews
La Luna is run by Maestro Don Guido Rimachi. The center was first opened in 1987 as the local village clinic by the Rimachi brothers, and used to serve mainly local patients. As time went on the word was spread, and patients from all over Peru and the rest of the world started to show up. Throughout the last 30 years people have traveled to Santa Maria de Ojeal for healing.
2015 Don Guido decided to expand the village clinic into a full-service Ayahuasca healing center with private bungalows for visitors traveling abroad, wishing to stay many nights and focus on personal healing.
In 2016 the new facilities were opened with a different name, but the sacred Amazonian healing techniques remain. Our shamans work the traditional way with Ayahuasca, passed down through many generations.
Today, La Luna del Amazonas is both one of the oldest and the newest centers around. The center is traditional yet modern, perfect for those who want access to ancient healing in a comfortable environment.

January 19, 2019 at 2:08 pmI arrived at Los Luna with very little knowledge of what to expect. The staff and fellow residents were all extremely welcoming and made me feel comfortable despite the challenging conditions. The facilities were very good considering the location, with more comforts then necessarily and plenty of protection from the elements.
I completed 4 ceremonies over a week- and although I had a relatively short stay the lessons and attitudes I gained will be with me forever.
Regardless of your background or past, I highly recommend Los Lunas del Amazon if your are seeking to connect with your body/mind and understand a more holistic picture of health.

November 21, 2018 at 1:44 pmI just got back from a 7 day stay at La Luna Del Amazonas. I can honestly say it was the best week of my life. The location of the retreat is perfect – deep enough in the jungle that you feel completely surrounded my nature, but no so far that you feel like you have no way out. The food was fantastic, there wasn’t one meal I had that I didn’t enjoy. You have consistent meetings with the shaman to help you have a better understanding of your experience. The icaros sang by Don Guido were absolutely beautiful and helped guide my experience greatly. Enrique Is an amazing human being with tons of experience with the medicine, he helped me out a lot by letting me ask any questions I had about the entire experience – and his experience. He is the best bridge between western civilization and the spiritual life of the amazon that you can find! I honestly have nothing bad to say about this retreat and can’t stress enough that if you are thinking about doing ayahuasca you cannot go wrong with this retreat!!

October 6, 2018 at 12:39 pmI spent 1 week at La Luna back in May 18′. Positive experience is an understatement. Everyone there contributed in making my week special. Firstly the volunteers Sati, Gia, and Greg were wonderful – really cool and down to earth people who are spiritually aware, I learned so much from them! Enrique was awesome, he made everyone feel comfortable and at home and has a really positive happy vibe about him. He made sure everything ran smoothly, you can tell he takes his work very seriously at La Luna and is a genuine guy. Guido was incredible. He provides the medicine in a very respectful and methodical way, you cannot go wrong with Guido. The location of La Luna is very serene. I could not choose a more peaceful place than here to have this deep personal experience. If you are looking for a place to try the traditional medicines of the amazon you have found it.

August 24, 2018 at 11:41 amMy time in La Luna was one of the most incredible experiences of my life and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough!
Being in the middle of the jungle was absolutely magical, the medicine was incredible and the shamans leading the ceremonies were extremely powerful and kindhearted.
There was so much love, caring and healing going into each and every ceremony, and the main shaman Guido also spent a generous amount of time talking with each guest, helping them to share their experience and resolve anything which might not be clear.
I was extremely lucky to work here for a few months, and witness so much healing and so many breakthroughs taking place.
The intentions of all those who are involved in running this retreat are of pure love, happiness and healing.
Needless to say ayahuasca is potentially one of the most powerful and life changing experiences you can have in your life, the wisdom, clarity, insights and healing for me are from a higher place, and for me La Luna was the perfect place to experience this medicine.
This place will always have a piece of my heart and as many of the other guests have done I hope to return soon!!
