DAY 1: WELCOME TO THE RAINFOREST
Check in: From 13H00 PM
After coordinating with the hotel, one of our representatives from Suchipakari Eco-Lodge will greet you in the Lower Pusuno area and accompany you to the reception, marking the start of your exciting adventure in the Amazon rainforest.
During this journey, you’ll only need to carry your hand luggage and photographic equipment, as our friendly staff will take care of transporting the rest of your baggage.
Upon arrival at the reception, our manager will welcome you with a refreshing energizing drink and provide a brief informational session about the tropical rainforest, available spa therapies, and the various activities and places you can explore during your stay at Suchipakari Eco-Lodge. The goal is to start your activities with a general understanding and enthusiasm for what awaits you.
13 PM - 14 PM | Special Lunch
Ecological Trail Hike: Gran Ceibo & Medicinal Plants
Get ready with your rubber boots and join our native guides, who are experts in Spanish, English, and interpreting bird and monkey sounds. They will take you on a journey through the dense, humid jungle, crossing muddy paths, encountering wildlife, and learning about Amazonian medicinal plants.
Tubing Afternoon: This experience takes place from our private sandy beach on the Pusuno River. You'll need to equip yourself with a life jacket and helmet. Practice your paddling technique and plunge into the water, feeling the adrenaline rush of navigating the tubes at your own pace.
Return to the Lodge and relax...
7H00 PM | An introductory talk with the shaman takes place.
During this session, the shaman recommends the most suitable places for the ceremony and guides us on the necessary physical and spiritual preparation. One of the suggested locations is "El Gran Ceibo," situated in the heart of the tropical forest, allowing for a deeper connection with nature.
Before beginning the Ayahuasca session, the shaman performs a cleansing ritual using medicinal plants, sacred tobacco, and sacred chants called icaros, which the shaman uses to invoke the protection of spirits and guide the experience.
This ritual purifies the body and mind, promoting meditation and introspection. The goal is to establish a clear and conscious intention for the upcoming experience.
The climax of the ceremony is the ingestion of the medicine. Each participant receives a dose of Ayahuasca, which is consumed in silence and with respect. Ayahuasca contains DMT (dimethyltryptamine), a powerful hallucinogen that induces profound visions and alterations in perception, addressing traumas, blocks, and hidden aspects of the psyche.
DAY 2: BREAKFAST | CHECK OUT: 2:00 PM
We'll start the day with a delicious breakfast filled with local flavors and natural energy.
The Ayahuasca retreat concludes with an integration period, during which participants reflect on their visions and experiences, receive guidance from the shaman, and meditate on the insights gained. Integration plays a crucial role in assimilating internal revelations and implementing changes into everyday life.
After a short break and time to pack, we bid farewell to the lodge team, who will assist us with the check-out process.
