View our retreats

At Sapan Inka, we believe that participating in an Ayahuasca retreat offers a profound opportunity for deep energetic cleansing, spiritual awakening, and personal healing. Our unique approach is a conscious synthesis of traditional Amazonian plant medicine and the principles of transpersonal psychology. We are not a center for spiritual tourism; we are a dedicated sanctuary for psychospiritual exploration, ancestral healing, and genuine personal transformation.

A Safe, Sacred, and Respectful Ceremonial Space

We distinguish ourselves through high ethical standards, personalized care, and unwavering energetic support during every ceremony. We honor a philosophy of conscious support: we respect the wisdom of expanded states of consciousness, allowing the healing intelligence of Ayahuasca and your own inner guidance to unfold naturally without unnecessary interference.

Safety and participant well-being are at the core of our practice:

  • Ceremony Duration & Direct Care: Our ceremonies last approximately 3 hours. At the end of each ceremony, the healers check in personally with every participant.
  • Dedicated Support: If you feel unstable, ungrounded, or unwell at the conclusion of the ritual, the healer will remain with you in the ceremonial temple for as long as necessary until you feel fully balanced, clear, and grounded.
  • Overnight Vigilance: All guest rooms are located very close to the healer’s room. Our healers remain attentive and accessible throughout the entire night. If you require help, care, or reassurance at any hour, support is always immediately within reach.

Depth Psychotherapy & Integration

The transformative power of Ayahuasca is fully realized through structured integration. At Sapan Inka, psychotherapeutic integration goes beyond simple conversation. We provide a professional framework to help you interpret the symbolic language of your visions, bridging deep spiritual insights into tangible, lasting life changes.

Preparation & Commitment

An Ayahuasca journey can be intensely challenging and demands emotional readiness, maturity, and commitment. Our approach is designed for individuals seeking authentic inner work rather than a superficial experience. To ensure safety and deep, personalized attention, we intentionally keep our retreat groups very small.

A Warm Welcome to Your Healing Journey

Embarking on a path of sacred medicine is a courageous step toward self-discovery, emotional freedom, and inner peace. We understand that taking this step requires trust, and we are committed to holding a safe, honorable, and compassionate space where you can safely release old burdens and reconnect with your true self.

If you feel called to work with us, we warmly invite you to begin this journey. Whether you wish to explore the details of our retreats or simply prefer a personal connection before applying, we welcome you to schedule a private 15-minute video call with us. We look forward to meeting you and walking alongside you on your path to healing.

    Sapan Inkas was set at the backdrop of gorgeous mountains and run by an even nicer couple Nilda and Erik. I was a travelling alone and Nilda made me feel safe and I felt like she was a lioness looking out for me throughout the retreat. Very professional, knowledgable and kind. They really respect the medicine and so should you if you plan to visit their retreat. Amazing experience overall and would definately reccomend especially if it is your first time.

    My girlfriend and I have been in a retreat in Sapan Inka some month ago. We made a long trip from Switzerland to make this experience and we both can say, that it was the strongest experience we have ever made. Every second will remain unforgettable.
    Erik and Nilda are amazing people. The energy, the depth and the professionalism they emit is balm for the soul. We still feel the energy and the changes after our retreat in Sapan Inka.
    If we plan a second retreat in future, we definitely would chose again Sapan Inka.

    Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Erik an Nilda

    Eric and Nilda of Sapan Inka Project were amazing. The retreat was nothing short of spectacular. Erik and Nilda are some of the nicest and most accommodating people I have ever met. Their home and ceremonial space is beautiful and the small group setting allows for a very personal experience. The medicine is powerful but gentle and the ceremony is done so perfectly. Erik and Nilda are incredibly knowledgeable and in tune wit he plant medicines and spirits and really ensure an incredible growth experience. The village they reside in is incredibly gorgeous and tranquil, located in the sacred valley and the locals are just as friendly and warm welcoming as Erik and Nilda. Not to mention, their cooking is phenomenal! I would not recommend any other retreat center besides Sapan Inka!

    After doing a lot of research my mom and I visited Erik and Nilda for a week long retreat. She was celebrating her 50th birthday, and I my 30th. We were journeying to Peru to sit with the intention of realizing and releasing ancestral trauma.

    Erik led us through exactly what to expect every day. Nilda prepared healthy and clean food from vegetables and fruit grown in their garden. The house is spacious, bright and clean. We had ample free time to explore outdoors or rest indoors. The Sacred Valley and it’s people are beautiful.

    The ceremonies were profound. We visited nearly 7 months ago, lessons learned while on the medicine are still showing up daily. Before every ceremony Erik sits one on one with each guest. He listens to your journey experience, giving you a safe place to be witnessed. He will listen to your upcoming journey intention and reflect back, sometimes redirecting based off your previous night’s experience. The integration piece is crucial, and Erik takes this very seriously.

    Erik and Nilda are compassionate and inspiring individuals. The partnership they have created is beautiful to witness as well. That alone is medicine for so many people. I highly recommend you stay and journey at Sapan Inkan.

    It’s been almost a year since my experience with mother ayauasca. Going into my trip to to Peru I had a lot to figure out. Coming from space and culture where I felt like I was just going through the day to day emotions not feeling connected to anyone or anything. My life has been transformed by the healing from the plant ayauasca. There is still so much to work though and integrate into western culture and life, but I genuinely feel guided on a daily basis from this experience. Guided to continue to grow and evolve to live awake and continue to rest in awareness.
    This experience never would’ve been possible without help from two very loving and caring people Erik and Nilda. It’s clear that they want to share their knowledge about Ayuasca in a safe and comfortable environment. We have so much to learn from this medicine and from each other. What a blessing that these two healers open up their home and their hearts to help the rest of us transform and blossom.
