10-Day Ayahuasca Retreat in Peru

This retreat is designed for those who want to approach Ayahuasca with clarity, responsibility, and integrity—removing the guesswork and ensuring the process is held with structure from start to finish.

Why This Retreat?

The Ayahuasca landscape can be confusing. Many “well-meaning” but inexperienced people offer medicine without proper support, structure, or authenticity. Recognizing this, we created this retreat to provide a clear, guided, and trustworthy process.

At the heart of the experience is working with authentic curanderos (shamans)—individuals with deep connection to the plants, rooted traditions, and generations of knowledge. We combine this wisdom with the clarity and accountability of a modern retreat to ensure you are supported every step of the way.

Ayahuasca is a powerful tool, but transformation requires more than just drinking the medicine. It’s about intentional preparation, expert-led ceremony, experienced guidance, and thoughtful integration—all of which are built into this retreat.

About Me

My name is Jarrod. I’m Australian and have been living in Latin America for the past five years. Over the last seven years, I’ve worked extensively with Ayahuasca and other plant medicines across Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, and Mexico.

I spent 1.5 years as a lead facilitator at a respected retreat center in Colombia, guiding 60–70 participants each month through deep and transformative processes. Beyond Ayahuasca, I also facilitate Bufo and co-lead retreats in Europe that integrate psilocybin and breathwork. Since 2022, I’ve served as a lead facilitator—bringing grounded leadership, clear structure, and full-spectrum support to every retreat I guide.

The Collaborative Model

These retreats are built under a collaborative model I designed after years of experience and research.

I've created the retreat, the program, I organize the participants, lead the retreat, facilitate in all ceremonies and guide both preparation and integration. Think of it like we are renting the center, staff and the infrastructure.

The center provides accommodation, nourishing meals, support staff, ceremonies, and the shamans.

The curandero focuses fully on the ceremonial and medicine work, bringing lineage-based guidance and authenticity.

This model ensures accountability, quality, and balance. It also helps prevent the echo chambers that can arise when retreats lack diversity or structure.

My role is to hold the journey from start to finish—preparation before arrival, leadership during the retreat, and support in integration afterward. The retreat center and curandero provide a safe, rooted, and well-held container for the ceremonial work.

The result is clarity, consistency, and strong support—ensuring that every participant is seen, held, and guided through a complete and powerful process.

Fantastic Experience
For many years, I have been on a path of healing – a path that has taken me through many dark chapters of my childhood and beyond. A year ago, I had my first profound and lasting positive experience with psilocybin in the Netherlands. This experience awakened in me the desire to go even deeper. So I decided to take part in the six-day Ithaca Retreat with Elvire and Jarrod.
Even during the preliminary discussions, I could sense how present, open and competent they both are. They approached me with genuine interest in my personal motivation and inner themes – a feeling of being seen and understood that touched me immediately.
I hoped that with the help of the medicine, the mindful setting and the loving guidance, I would be able to dive deeper – and I was not disappointed. It was a journey of transformation on all levels. The atmosphere was filled with mindfulness, energetic diversity and genuine warmth.
The guided sessions – meditation, breathwork, light yoga – flowed harmoniously into the psilocybin journeys. Elvire and Jarrod contributed significantly to the depth of the experiences with their musical diversity and palpable skill.
The culinary offerings were a feast for the senses, and the location in the midst of beautiful nature was a gift. I was particularly touched by how spiritual depth was combined with down-to-earth grounding – it is precisely this mixture that nourishes me and speaks to my heart.
I felt safe in our mixed group – supported by a sense of connection and genuine exchange, while at the same time having space for quiet and reflection. Elvire, Jarrod and the entire team were there for us at all times – supportive, warm and attentive.
Thank you from my heart for your work, your dedication and your presence.
With deep gratitude,
Lenne

Amazing
I did this retreat with 14 others in April 2025 and I think it would be no exaggeration to say we all had an amazing experience. Jarrod and Elvie are extremely knowledgable in this space and went above and beyond to ensure that every participant was getting what they needed from the experience. As an added plus, the venue and cuisine were out of this world. Highly recommend!

Great teacher and facilitator
Jarrod is amazing. He is such a genuine, kind soul and I am so grateful to have had the chance to learn from him.
He really knows his stuff and takes the time to help others understand. He runs the ceremonies with such care and love and it that really shines through. He has written some beautiful songs and has many gifts which I was lucky enough to experience over the week.
Thank you for the guidance and chats - I won’t forget it! 🫶
