Life-changing experience. I discovered myself much more here in one week than in decades of therapy. The support is incredible: Pepe (the shaman), Boris and Sasha are outstanding, as are the facilitators (Dan, Frida and Ubi) who offered unconditional love, empathy and support: they were key in this individual and group journey and took great care. Also, food is unbelievable.

Life-changing experience where you will face yourself and can focus and work on yourself without doubt. The team of coaches is amazing! It feels super safe and is well organized. The shaman Pepe is a wonderful person and incredibly good in his work. I'm so happy that I have done this retreat and implemented all the learnings into my daily life. Again, it is truly life-changing and you will look at the world from a different perspective from now on. Thanks APL!

Every moment I had in APL was truly magical . Facilitators are very professional, supportive and highly ethical. I believe that trust is the main factor in this kind of shamanic work and APL is the best place to provide this trusty , safe environment for this significant experience. Leaving that place was quite sad for me, as I felt like I was leaving my home. I can’t wait for my next APL journey and appreciate everybody who participated in that magical week.

My experience with APL Journeys and the facilitators was nothing short of amazing. I felt safe and held during the entire experience and I felt everyone was professional and efficient beyond anything I could have asked for. And there was so much more than just the Aya ceremonies; yoga, sound baths, nutritious food and availability for 1-2-1 chats with the integration therapists and the Shaman. Honestly the most well-run, well-planned and competent retreat I have ever been lucky enough to be apart of. Highly recommend.

This Ayahuasca retreat was a profound journey. The facilitators, shaman, and community made it an unforgettable experience. The ceremonies offered deep insights and healing, while the support extended beyond the retreat. If you're seeking transformation, this retreat is a game-changer. Gratitude to the entire team for this incredible journey.

I never experienced something like this before. Boris and his team took a perfect care of us and I felt like I am at home after just one day. They are extremely profesional and always there to help. It was a week full of tears and laughing with people that were previously just strangers. Aya is not a quick fix but it has an ability to show you the truth even when it hurts. What you do with it after the retreat is up to you.

The team at APL Journeys are knowledgeable, kind, compassionate, and caring beyond anything I can possibly describe with words. They create an atmosphere of extreme trust and profound healing. I'm at a loss to describe the feeling of gratitude I left their retreat with. All I can say is that it's something you absolutely have to experience for yourself, so if you're considering this journey, there is literally no place and no people better to guide you through it.

This was my second retreat with APL and I could not be happier with my experience! Boris and team provide a very relaxed, safe and compassionate environment in which everyone feels comfortable to work through whatever has led them there to work with this very special plant medicine. Having the opportunity to work with a true Amazonian Shaman also makes this retreat extremely special and authentic, and every detail around the ceremony and the daily schedule is well organised yet relaxed, allowing for a truly open and welcoming atmosphere in which to rest, reflect and heal. I would recommend APL to anyone looking to work with this medicine, and I cannot imagine that it is as easy to find standards this high on any other retreats available around Europe!

This is my second time with APL and 15 seat with the medicine, to my surprise they just got better! This is by far the most professional place to do Aya in Europe. They work with traditional shipibo curanderos and highly experienced facilitators. They care and do they work with love. Can’t recommend them enough ❤️

As I am slowly gathering the impressions after an amazing retreat, one thing becomes very clear. While the ayahuasca journeys are always going to be deeply personal and unique for each participant, what is common for all, are the logistics and people accompanying a group. Afeter spending a week with APL, I would want EXACTLY the same group of facilitators, integrations specialists, other personnel the next time I decide to go on this journey. I always felt super safe, taken care of and it was clear to us that people running the APL genuinely care. Whether it is about delivering another blanket at midnight, finding the right brew quantity or simply passing on valuable knowledge of the medicine, these guys are fully committed. From morning until the next morning when ceremonies end. Boris, Sasha, Celeste, Ubi (my man!!), Mick, Danielle, Jose, Samaya ... THANK YOU! And, of course, maestro Sunny, thank you for taking me down to hell and back to heaven and teaching me important life lessons in the process. Guys, see you again soon and I hope these lines convience some other people to give you an opportunity to introduce the amazing world of plant medicine to them as well. Toni Toni

I had the call to sit with Ayahuasca 2 years ago and spent a huge amount of time researching and doing my own due diligence on different retreats and APL kept on coming up. Having just returned from a week long retreat, I have to say that these guys are exceptional examples of how to host plant medicine in a responsible, ethical and professional way. Our shaman was incredibly powerful, the facilitators were fantastic, even the food was great. Fell in love with my group and the entire team and can’t recommend APL highly enough. I’ll be back!

Would award 10 if I could. I had a beautiful, life-changing journey. I had a close connection with the medicine but beyond that, the way that the team held and facilitated the space was amazing. The level of trust and love I felt from the team and the Maestro Tony was outstanding. Would have been impossible to have the same experience without that. The house and grounds are beautiful, and add to the calm. And finally it was a beautiful experience to bond with the other retreat participants, sharing and offering love and support as our journey grew and evolved. One word of personal advice however. This is just my personal opinion so take it as you like, but it was invaluable to me. I believe it's really important to take the buildup and the pre-retreat diet seriously, just as seriously as the retreat itself. This will help you feel connected and ensure you are best ready to receive the healing you need. Before you book, take a good look at the list of dietary and lifestyle requirements expected in the buildup and during retreat. None of us are perfect but if you know that you will commit to doing your best and are confident that you will follow the requirements closely, then please go ahead - this will be the right place for you. If you are not sure and think you will miss certain items and struggle to remove them from your diet/life - then perhaps save your money for now, and come back another time when you feel your commitment to the whole process will be stronger. Good luck and lots of love!

It's understandable coming from the conditioning of many of our societies why this journey may seem extreme. However, if you are ready to face and find yourself, the retreat experience at APL was a very positive unexpected surprise. It will challenge you, it is not a bed of roses but you are not alone, you have the love and attention given by the Shaman, facilitators and whole team and your group. You will receive from the experience what you give it. If you are ready to be open, vulnerable and emptied so you can be healed, then APL Journeys is one of best places.

A week after the retreat, I'm still coming to terms with the incredible personal transformation that I experienced with the help of APL. Boris, Sasha, and the rest of the APL team have curated a beautiful and powerful experience that brings the healing power of ayashuasca to the world. It's clear that the team has been doing this for many years, and the entire program is perfectly designed to allow attendees to gradually build confidence and respect for this powerful medicine. I have immense gratitude for the experience, and am excited for the continued journey.

If you're feeling it, do it! This has been one of the best weeks of my life, I have got more insights into my soul than in years of many other ways. The APL team is simply the best, and better than any expectations. The testimonials are true and they give their whole heart to holding us all in safe and nourishing space. The place is gorgeous, the food was made with such love. Maestro Tony years of experience and healing Icaro's brought such a powerful energy that made connecting with Mother Ayah a powerful experience. Also I will never forget the love, support and wisdom from Celeste, our Integration Coach and Shaman. The integration circles really make a difference in bringing experiences INTO this reality and now I am making use of these insights and wisdom in real life! Here's the all and may you receive love returned in many blessings. Clare xox

My retreat with APL in August 2023 impacted me in ways I can't begin to describe. I felt safe from beginning to end, the organization was top notch and the surroundings were beautiful and peaceful, which allowed me to dive deep and have major breakthroughs. It's a tough experience emotionally, but what's on the other side of the discomfort is completely worth it. Immense gratitude to Boris, Sacha, Celeste and the whole team for being such amazing spaceholders, so professional and human at the same time. I'll never forget my time with you. With infinite gratitude 🙏🏼
