Ayahuasca Retreat Reviews — Helping You Stay Safe with 5,000+ Independent Reviews
The Ayaruna Center is located in Pisac, in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, between Cusco and Machu Picchu; we are surrounded by amazing mountains and overlooking the ancient Pisac ruins.
I have built a house and ceremony temple for Ayahuasca and an open one for San Pedro here in order to pursue my healing work with these plants, and to create a space where people can most benefit from working with these powerful medicines: a safe space for the exploration of one’s inner realms as well as other dimensions.
I offer Ayahuasca and San Pedro (Huachuma) ceremonies, as well as massages.
I combine my knowledge and experience in breath work, yoga, Chinese medicine, massage, and various spiritual traditions, together with the shamanic work of plant medicine to support people in their process of personal healing, spiritual awakening and consciousness evolution.
Where we are
In order to get to the Ayaruna Center, please take a taxi or mototaxi to Paz Y Luz Guesthouse. Right before Paz Y Luz there is a large wooden gate – go through it and along the path until you arrive at a metal gate with a star on the door. You have arrived!
AYARUNA means those who have gone before – and also, the female spirit of Ayahuasca.

January 24, 2015 at 12:00 amI did 2 Aya ceremonies and 2 San Pedro ceremonies with Javier and I wholeheartedly recommend Javier. Javier has a huge heart and is able to help people to understand and integrate their experiences with the medicine. From my perspective Javier is able to bridge the shamanic and western paradigms which is a huge asset. The ceremonies with Javier were lifechanging for me. Thank you Javier!
