Yachay Wasi Ayahuasca Center

At Yachay Wasi, the Maloka is the beating heart of the center—a sacred, circular space nestled in the jungle where all our Ayahuasca ceremonies and integration circles take place. Built from natural materials with deep respect for tradition, it holds a powerful and protective energy. Within its walls, guests are guided through healing journeys, surrounded by the sounds of the Amazon. It is a space of safety, connection, and deep transformation.

Getting to Yachay Wasi: Reaching Yachay Wasi is part of the journey—an immersion into the heart of the Peruvian Amazon that begins with your arrival in Iquitos, the largest city in the world unreachable by road. International Arrival The nearest international airport is Jorge Chávez International Airport (LIM) in Lima, Peru. From there, take a domestic flight to Iquitos. Local Connection Several airlines offer daily flights from Lima to Iquitos International Airport (IQT). The flight takes approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes. We recommend booking a flight the day before the retreat so we can get to the center without rush on the day of the start of the retreat. Boat Transfer to Yachay Wasi Upon arrival in Iquitos, our team will meet you and guide you to the port. From there, you’ll travel by motorized canoe—a scenic and peaceful 1.5 to 2-hour ride through the jungle rivers to our retreat center, located in the small riverside community of Iquique. Immersed in Nature Yachay Wasi is fully surrounded by the Amazon rainforest. The journey to get here helps guests disconnect from the modern world and begin their process of inner connection, healing, and presence. If needed, we’re happy to recommend trusted drivers, local accommodations in Iquitos for overnight stays, or help coordinate your journey. Just let us know your itinerary and we’ll assist every step of the way.
