EXCELLENT Based on 510 reviews Posted on Chi Ngo10/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Profoundly amazing experience with Shaman Bladimir at Awkipuma! Before the ceremony, we spent ample time speaking with Bladimir (discussing consciousness, the conflict between nature and human constructs, etc.); he was patient and spent whatever time we wanted to ensure we felt prepared and comfortable with him and the space. At the scheduled time later that night, we met back at the maloca for the ceremony, which was in complete darkness, surrounded by the myriad life and sounds of the singular Amazon rainforest. Bladimir respectfully and effectively executed his role of guide and protector throughout the 3-hour ceremony. Unlike some retreats where the guide chants over recorded music, Bladimir customizes the icaros he sings to invoke the spirits of nature and ward off potential negative spirits/energy throughout your journey. At the end of the 3 hours, my experience was still pretty intense, so his employee Jesús stayed in the maloca with us until we felt comfortable walking back to our room. The next morning, we had a casual debrief with Bladimir, over a fresh breakfast of local fruits and pineapple rind "tea" prepared by his wife, before we all headed back to Tamshiyacu. If you are open—not only to the medicinal experience, but to the simplicity of the Amazon in a way that jettisons your first-world expectations (of how companies should communicate, logistics should operate, and you should be catered to), then you'll be able to transcend consciousness (as well as your pesky ego) and appreciate the beautiful service that Awkipuma provides.Posted on Gilma Murayari04/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hello everyone, I traveled alone to the Amazon jungle to experience ayahuasca, and honestly, I was a little nervous at first… but everything changed the moment I arrived at Awkipuma Spiritual Center. I was welcomed with warmth, kindness, and genuine care. Alfonso and his team made me feel safe, supported, and part of a spiritual family in the heart of the Amazon. 🌿 The place is magical — surrounded by pure nature, the sounds of the jungle, and a deep sense of peace. The ayahuasca ceremonies were powerful and full of love, guided with wisdom and respect. I never felt alone; every step of the process was cared for with attention and empathy. Coming alone was one of the best decisions of my life. At Awkipuma, I found healing, clarity, and a profound connection with myself and life. If you’re thinking about coming to the jungle, don’t hesitate — Awkipuma is a safe, authentic, and truly transformative place.Posted on Ara GM01/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came to Awkipuma with many doubts and fears, but from the first moment I felt an energy of peace and confidence. The ayahuasca ceremony was one of the most profound experiences of my life. I was able to release emotional burdens that I had carried for years and discovered a clarity that I had never felt before. Alfonso and the shamans Don Ladimiro and Doña Maria guided me with great respect and love, making sure that each step was safe and meaningful. Now I feel renewed and with a new purpose. If you are thinking about living this experience, do not hesitate to do so. Awkipuma is a sacred place that transforms lives.Posted on Antonella31/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience at Awkipuma Spiritual Center in the Amazon jungle of Iquitos was truly life-changing. From the very beginning, I felt a deep sense of safety, respect, and care. Alfonso and the maestros work with small groups, offering close and personalized guidance throughout the retreat. The ayahuasca ceremonies are carried out with profound respect and sacredness, which allowed me to open my heart, release emotional burdens, and find the inner peace I had been seeking for years. If you are searching for inner healing, spiritual clarity, or a deeper connection with yourself, I wholeheartedly recommend experiencing Awkipuma 🌿✨. This is not just a retreat — it is a true path of transformation.Posted on Gonzalo Aguilar Venegas21/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Best place, to me, to live the Ayahuasca experience it has been with “El Maestro-Chaman “Don Ladimiro Murayari” through Alfoso, who fixed every single detail to rejoice the complete adventure of Ayahuasca at Awkipuma Healing Center inside the Iquitos, Perú 🇵🇪, Really thank you Alfonso for the life-changing moment.!!!Posted on Manolo Lama07/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Muy bellas personas, agradecido con todos.Posted on Leah Miles07/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would just like to start by saying there is nothing negative I could say about this beautiful family, they are the most kind hearted, generous people you will ever meet. From the food that was prepared and provided for us to the beautiful ceremonies that were so carefully planned out and taken place. It was such a blessing to have received such amazing support from the Awkipuma family, I left feeling so loved by every single one of them, not just from the family but what this beautiful medicine was able to provide me, with such peace, clarity and answers I came to the jungle for! The entire Awkipuma family will forever hold such a special place in my heart, and without a doubt I will be returning to the beloved jungle in the near future.Posted on Ruth Miles07/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the most amazing healing experience with the Awikpuma family in the Amazon jungle and we will never forget the love and kindness they showed us. They shared their beautiful home with us and made us feel so welcome. The homecooked food was so delicious, healthy and organic. We took 3 ceremonies and have grown spiritually as well as feeling cleansed and healed. We asked for truth and we received clarity. We will most definitely return.
