Peyote retreat Europe in Algarve Portugal with Marakame Juan and Curandera Chandra Devi Ma
Once a year • A rare Peyote ceremony in Europe

Ayahuasca & Peyote Retreat Europe — Algarve, Portugal

A 7-night retreat in the Algarve (about 35 minutes from Faro Airport) combining two Ayahuasca ceremonies, three rest & integration days, and a single Peyote night held by Marakame Juan and Curandera Chandra Devi Ma (Prana Foundation). Marakame Juan travels to Europe once a year to offer this medicine — and we receive it as a genuine honour.

Small cohort, high care: max 8 guests • trauma-informed preparation & integration • community continuity • optional support via our AI-powered integration app (BioPsyche Renewal Protocol).

📅May 1–8, 2026 • 7 nights
📍Algarve, Portugal • ~35 min Faro
👥Max 8 guests
Ayahuasca (2 ceremonies)

Deep cleansing nights in a structured Western container — held for clarity, safety, and integration.

Rest & Integration Days

Space to regulate, reflect, sleep, and let insights settle into the body instead of chasing the next peak.

Peyote Night (1 ceremony)

A once-a-year offering with Marakame Juan & Curandera Chandra Devi Ma (Prana Foundation).

Optional on free days

Kambo and Bufo (5-MeO-DMT) available by screening and fit — only if it truly supports your path.

Because peyote is rare and slow-growing, we do not use it casually. In our regular work we choose San Pedro (faster-growing and more sustainable). When peyote is brought to us and offered in ceremony, we hold it with deep respect, careful preparation, and an integration framework designed to protect the meaning of the work.

Facilitated sharing circle — trauma-informed, small-group environment in Europe

Who this is for

For those seeking a safe Ayahuasca & Peyote retreat in Europe 2026 or a psilocybin retreat, who value professionalism and depth. Ideal if you want to address tpoics like depression, burnout, or meaninglessness in a western, supportive environment and combine it with a traditional Shaman-led ceremony.

  • People ready for transformation without guru culture or chaos.
  • Small groups (max 8) with high facilitator contact.
  • Consent-led paths: ceremonies optional, integration guaranteed.

Why choose this retreat

  • Trauma-informed team: English-speaking, professional facilitators.

Curandera Devi Chandra Ma

Mexican Healer • Reiki Master • Prana Foundation

A Mexican curandera and facilitator of ancestral medicine ceremonies (Ayahuasca, Bufo Alvarius, Peyote) with 20+ years of experience. Her path was shaped by a profound near-death experience, leading into devotional work rooted in Mother Earth and the Divine Mother — weaving shamanic, Vedic, and earth-based practices, including sacred feminine work, cacao ceremonies, and singing.

🦌

Marakame Juan (Don Juan Ortiz)

Wirrarika Marakame • Primer Cantor • Hikuri / Peyote

A Wirrarika (Huichol) traditional healer from Jalisco, Mexico, and the First Chant Leader (Primer Cantor) of his community. With 35+ years walking the Blue Deer Medicine (Hikuri / Peyote), he leads the traditional Wirikuta Deer Hunt pilgrimage and is among the few permitted to perform sacred living offerings — ceremonies devoted to honoring the elemental forces and restoring balance for all life.

What Makes This Retreat Different

We don’t sell “a miracle night.” We build the conditions for real change: screening that protects you, a paced ceremonial arc, and integration that continues after you leave. This is a premium, trauma-informed pathway in the Algarve, Portugal — designed so deep experiences become stable life change, not just a peak memory.

Screening & clarity

Depth from the first conversation

Before you arrive, we map the essentials: your intention, contraindications, protectors, and nervous-system patterns. You’ll know what you’re working with — and what support you’ll need — before you step into ceremony.

Paced retreat arc

Two Ayahuasca nights + real rest days

This retreat includes two Ayahuasca ceremonies, separated by rest & integration days so your system can settle. We don’t stack intensity for the sake of drama — we use pacing so insights can land.

Rare lineage event

The Peyote night is a once-a-year offering

The retreat culminates in a single Peyote ceremony night guided by Marakame Juan together with Curandera Devi Chandra Ma (Prana Foundation). Chandra is based in Portugal and joins as a close collaborator; Marakame Juan travels to Europe specifically to bring and guide this ceremony.

Optional support

Kambo & Bufo on free days (by fit)

On the free days, Kambo and Bufo (5-MeO-DMT) may be available by screening and readiness. Optional means optional: we only include what genuinely supports your intention and nervous-system capacity.

Continuity of care

Integration that continues after you leave

The container doesn’t end at checkout. You’ll have structured circles during the retreat, and follow-up support after — including access to our AI-powered integration app (BioPsyche Renewal Protocol) for reflection prompts, micro-practices, and practical grounding.

Clean environment

Algarve venue, low noise, high care

A calm, beautiful setting near Faro Airport, small cohorts (max 8), clear communication, and a team focused on care — so the work stays about your healing, not logistics, overwhelm, or “jungle stress.”

A glimpse of the work (composite): A guest arrives feeling “open” after Ayahuasca — and then crashes into fatigue, doubt, and emotional waves on the rest days. Instead of pushing more intensity, we normalize the nervous-system rebound, guide simple practices, and use the space to integrate what surfaced. By the time the Peyote night arrives, the guest feels grounded enough to receive meaning, not just sensation. Not magic; method.

Quick Q&A

This is a structured 7-night container with two ayahuasca nights plus a traditional overnight Peyote (Hikuri) ceremony. It’s designed as a deep “prep + process + integrate” arc — not a quick ceremony hop.
The retreat is hosted and held by the Vine of the Soul Retreats team in Portugal. The Peyote night is guided in ceremony by Marakame Juan together with Curandera Devi Chandra Ma (Prana Foundation). Marakame Juan travels to Europe once a year and offers a small number of ceremonies during that visit — this retreat is one of them.
No. We work consent-led. The retreat includes a defined program and ceremonial space; participation in any medicine is always optional and confirmed via screening and readiness.
Arrival is in the afternoon with an opening group talk. The first days include preparation, grounding and integration support, with two ayahuasca ceremonies early in the week. Later, there is a dedicated integration/rest day before the overnight Peyote ceremony (sunset → dawn). The final days focus on rest, integration, sharing, and closure.
All guests complete a medical + psychological screening, plus preparation support before arrival. After the retreat you receive one group integration call and one private 1:1 integration call (within 2 months), plus access to our AI-powered integration app based on the BioPsyche Renewal Protocol.
Depending on screening, readiness, and what’s appropriate, we may offer optional add-ons on rest days (e.g., Kambo or Bufo (5-MeO-DMT)). Nothing is “stacked” by default — we keep the container intelligent, not maximal.
