Luxury Ayahuasca and San Pedro retreat in the Sacred Valley of Cusco, Peru.

We specialise in helping people with a Western mindset make transformational changes. For the quality of our ceremonies and the outcomes we achieve, please see our reviews.

Of all the decisions we make in life, choosing one of personal development, investing in oneself, is the most important decision we can make. When our path takes us to question our purpose and ourselves, we begin the most rewarding journey possible.

Spiritual development is the understanding of self. As all the greatest gurus and sages have said, “Know Thyself;” just two words, but where do we start? When we come from a Western mindset and a Western educational system then we look outside ourselves for the answer. This is the wrong direction. We need to look within, and the plant medicines help us do that.

Ayahuasca and San Pedro are mind medicines. They open us to higher states of conscious awareness that would otherwise take years of dedicated meditation to achieve. Mind medicines enable us to understand the nature of consciousness well beyond the constraints of our three dimensional reality. They lift our vibration into the higher dimensions and help us appreciate life and what it is meant to simply be. Ayahuasca and San Pedro are life-changing experiences; they help us discover what we really are and help cure depression, stress and anxiety related issues.

At Munay we believe it is important to experience these wonderful sacred plant medicines in a calm and tranquil setting. From our experience, both as individual participants and providers of the medicines, we believe that quiet and solitude are key factors in maximising the benefits the sacred plants bring. We want people to develop a personal relationship with the plants, however we’re always at hand if support is needed. Ceremonies all start with a meditation centering the clients before the effects of the medicines become noticeable.

    From the moment I arrived at Munay Medicine I could feel the frequency all around me – It was then that I knew I was at a very special place. There was a reassuring calmness about it that centered me and a stillness that quietened my mind. A scared energy then guided me along a breathtaking 10 day journey of self discovery. Munay Medicine gave me the wings to fly by creating a safe and peaceful environment in which I could connect with the plant medicine. The San Pedro grounded my spirit deep into the earth and Ayahuasca gave me a profound awareness of myself that triggered feelings too deep and mysterious for words. If you are reading this now then you are one step closer to a life changing experience. If it doesn’t change you, it will no doubt wake you up! Let go and trust that David and Paradise will love you with a love that is more than love. I strongly urge you to go dance with their beautiful vibrations in the Scared Valley and let the rhythm of the medicine set your soul free.

    I initially intended to come here for a ten day retreat. As soon as I entered the gate, I was greeted by two beautiful women and gleefully pounced on by what seemed to be a character from the Muppets – Mutley, the dog – and felt immediately welcome. Spending time with David, the owner, I learned so much about the nature of consciousness and what really matters in the world. Our discussions, video nights, and excursions were truly life-changing; so much so, ten days wasn’t nearly enough. Several weeks later, I am still here, still learning, and deeply grateful for the opportunity to expand my joy and awareness at Munay Medicine. It’s a truly special, life enriching place – words simply cannot capture the wonderful experiences that await you here.

    I attended Munay Medicine in July 2017, and it’s an experience I’ll never forget. The tambo is beautifully designed, exceptionally comfortable and surrounded by breathtaking scenery. I have some familiarity with plant medicines, and can attest to the quality of the ayahuasca, and particularly the huachuma, which is prepared on-site with a lot of care and respect. I had some of my strongest and most profound experiences here – it’s an environment truly suited to healing and learning. What really makes this place special, however, is the dedication that David and Paradise have for the guests. David has clearly undergone some kind of spiritual transformation, and it’s contagious – in the best possible way. He’s an unending source of unconventional wisdom and has crafted an environment of trust and openness that compliments the work perfectly. Paradise is a natural empath, a great cook, an expert on food, plants and the local culture, but above all an excellent companion. Leaving Munay Medicine I’m not the same person; stronger, healthier, more mature and somehow more prepared for everything I must face in the future. I consider everyone I’ve met here a teacher and a friend, and I look forward to the next time I get to see these wonderful people.

    My husband and I feel blessed to have found Munay Medicine Retreat. This was our second visit with only seven months in between. Situated in the Sacred Valley of Peru, the vibrational energy at Munay Medicine allows you to become truly open to self discovery and transformation. This is further enhanced by the love and encouragement shown by David and Paradis, our great guides/ friends. We are grateful for the experience we’ve had at Munay as we continue our journey. We look forward to making this an annual trip for many years to come!

    I went to Munay for a couple reasons. I won’t go into detail here but I was a frustrated, often depressed and very lost 30 something year old. Physically and spiritually. A friend recommended it as an alternative to traditional therapy and medicine so I went without much planning or information on plant medicines. What an experience they offer. David and his team are fantastic. They’re skilled, knowledgeable and supportive. Each bring love, calm and individual wisdom from experience and deep insight. There is no pressure, no criticism, no judgement. You can do none, some or all of what they offer and you will get something out of it I promise. And, disclaimer, I went as a meat eating, healthily skeptic, educated person who lives in call-it-like-you-see-it New York. Go. Whatever your problem(s) are big or small, or if you just need a break or some inspiration, you will not regret it. The food is great (remember, NYer here, we’re picky) because it’s super healthy and fresh – half the stuff they grow themselves. The rooms are clean, light and comfortable, there’s hot water and good Internet. The location is superb; your nestled in between these gorgeous mystical mountains in the sacred valley dappled in sunshine. If it rains just go inside to a warm fire and some proper hot cocoa that warms the body and spirit. They do laundry, take you on local trips and know the community around them. Oh and there’s a sweet dog Muttley, Sebastian the cat and bunny rabbits. Just go. 100% worth it. They will take care of you. The hardest part is leaving believe me.
