What is an ayahuasca or psilocybin truffle retreat?

We host ayahuasca retreats in Spain & Portugal (private, decriminalized settings) and legal psilocybin truffle retreats in the Netherlands. All programs are trauma-informed, small-group, and integration-focused.

Where are retreats held and why pop-up venues?

We use vetted private locations across Spain, Portugal and the Netherlands. Pop-up venues let us match the group’s needs, maintain discretion, and optimize safety while staying compliant (truffles in NL).

How much do retreats cost?

Week-long retreats typically fall in the €3,500–€4,500 range depending on location, format and season. See the Pricing page for current dates, early-bird windows, and alumni options.

What does a typical schedule look like?

Most 5-day programs include arrival/orientation, 2–4 ceremonies (ayahuasca Spain/Portugal or truffles NL), daily sharing circles, optional 1:1 support, and a closing integration circle.

Is medicine use mandatory? Can I attend without drinking?

No—medicine is optional. We also offer breathwork, hypnotherapy, yoga, and somatic tools. Many guests choose fewer ceremonies or none, and still report profound results.

How do you keep retreats safe?

Comprehensive screening (health and medications), sober facilitators, high staff-to-guest ratio, private venues, nearby medical access, diet/medication guidance, and structured integration support.

Who should not attend or needs medical clearance?

Contraindications can include certain heart conditions, uncontrolled hypertension, pregnancy, a history of psychosis, and specific medications (e.g., SSRIs/MAOIs). Each case is reviewed in screening; non-psychedelic options may be recommended.

How many people attend and how many ceremonies are included?

We keep groups intimate—typically 8–12 participants. Programs usually offer 2–4 ceremonies plus integration and optional 1:1 sessions.

How should I prepare? What’s the diet/medication guidance?

We provide a detailed preparation guide covering food, supplements, sleep, mindset, and medication tapering timelines where medically appropriate and supervised.

What support do you offer after the retreat?

Our integration path includes a follow-up call about 2–3 weeks later, monthly group circles, and an alumni community to support long-term change.

Travel logistics: airports, visas, transfers & exact locations?

Closest airports vary by venue (e.g., Lisbon, Faro, Valencia, Málaga, Amsterdam). Exact address and transfer options are provided after booking; we help coordinate shared taxis and timing.

Refunds, rescheduling and payment plans?

See the Terms & Policies page for timelines and fees. Limited payment plans and sliding-scale spots may be available—ask our team during application.
