WEEKS 1-3
The accommodation and meal package — shared room and three meals a day — is ONLY US$840 for the entire three weeks. The price also includes one laundry service per week, as well as unlimited mineral water and hot beverages, for a stress-free stay.
We also offer a few single rooms – feel free to ask us about availability
All teachings, sharings, periods of silence, and practices are offered free of charge during the first three weeks.
Why? Because truth and wisdom cannot be bought. Imagine Jesus, Socrates or the Buddha charging for their talks — it would miss the point entirely. Turning self-realization into a product would take away its essence. Does this trigger you? Excellent — you’re in the right place.
At the end of the retreat, you’re invited to make a donation from the heart, only if you truly feel inspired to do so.
WEEK 4
For those wishing to extend their stay, the optional integration week starts at only US$140 for a shared room (7 nights). Book the fourth week right away to secure this exceptional price. The week includes a nourishing buffet-style breakfast, unlimited mineral water, and hot teas. Yoga and meditation classes are, of course, free of charge. For other meals, explore the local cuisine at Vilcabamba’s many restaurants — or enjoy dining at Izhcayluma’s panoramic restaurant.
Traditional healing ceremonies — including temazcal (sweat lodge) and shamanic plant medicine ceremonies with ayahuasca or San Pedro — are optional and available at an additional cost. Ask us for details!

“I have never been anyone’s teacher. If anyone, young or old, wishes to hear me speak or pursue my ideas, I have never begrudged them; nor do I demand money, but I offer myself freely to rich and poor alike.”
