Amazing experience
This was my first time ever going to ayahuasca retreat and I am so happy that I found this place. The staff were very supportive and caring throughout my whole experience, for the 3 days. I couldn't have asked for a better place to come to. This experience gave me a complete new outlook on my life i can honestly say this was my life changing moment. If it wasn't for the staff and the care that they provided, I wouldn't have felt safe and secure through my journey, I highly recommend this place to anybody who wants to truly make changes in their life.

I have drank the medicine with 4 other groups and Pachamama is in a whole other league. I recommend if anyone is considering working with this amazing medicine to reach out to Derek and his highly knowledgeable staff at Pachamama Sanctuary

outstanding experience
If you are looking for an incredible experience with Ayahuasca, I would highly recommend Pachamama Sanctuary in Maine. I previously did Ayahuasca at Rythmia in Costa Rica in 2025, and while it was a positive experience overall, it was more than 10 times the cost and nowhere near as impactful as my 48 hours at Pachamama. Derek and his staff run a no frills operation in the woods in Maine and deliver an outstanding experience with Ayahuasca over the course of 2 days as opposed to a week. The medicine served at Pachamama is far more powerful than the medicine served at Rythmia which allows you to feel and/or process the medicine after 2 cups as opposed to 5 or 6 at Rythmia. The intensity of the emotions I experienced and the visions I had on the medicine at Pachamama were far greater and more insightful than anything I experienced at Rythmia. If you are struggling in your life and want to condense 20 years of therapy into 48 hours of intense introspection, Pachamama is where you want to go.

Highly recommended
I had been to Pachamama when it was in New Hampshire and valued the experience a great deal. Since their move to Maine though, they have upped their game tremendously. The location and retreat space were so comforting, and the staff was elite. I felt so well guided and taken care of. I had been looking at other ayahuasca retreats in the US & abroad, out of curiosity / interest in trying different places, but I can't imagine I'd go anywhere else after my experience in Casco.
