I was truly and utterly blown away by the whole experience. Firstly the space was beautiful, not only the house, but the hall where the ceremonies took place, it was the right amount of boujee for me, always comfortable and always happy. The team was honestly outstanding, so much attention to detail and passion in their craft. Boris, Sasha and Amanda were so patient, understanding and professional, they created such a beautiful space for each and every one of us, along with the other members of staff. I really couldn’t be more impressed. Pepe the shaman was truly exceptional, I’m in total awe of his abilities and knowledge. I can truly say I feel healed of my past demons, after just 3 ceremonies with him and the rest of the team. Usually the ayahuasca diet can be quite boring, but we certainly were not disappointed, with an array of gorgeous food to feed the soul. Really and truly I cannot recommend the experience enough. I was certainly sceptical at first, but I will say with ease, it was one of the best experiences of my life, very hard no doubt, but so unbelievably beautiful. I could not be happier with the outcome and the chance to connect with all the other beautiful like minded souls . Thank you APL team, thank you eternally, you truly blew my mind, and helped shape a better version of me.

The retreat with APL was above my expectation. My experience with this journey was everything I could have asked for and more. The team was very professional and provided a safe space for us all to go deep into our healing and our journey with ayahuasca. I felt the passion and love of the crew. I recommend this retreat to anyone who is looking for an authentic intense ayahuasca experience. Thank you so much for everything! Lots of love!

It`s hard to put my gratitude in to words! Boris, Sacha, Amanda and the entire APL team are the embodiment of loving kindness. This team approaches their work with dedication, pride and razor sharp expertise. The trusting, loving and respectful atmosphere they created was crucial to my healing journey. I felt safe, therefore I could journey deeper with the medicine. The integration sessions were wonderful - I will cherish the lessons shared in those sessions for the rest of my life. Their connection to, and knowledge of, master-plants and shamanism is truly profound. We are privileged to tap I to this well of knowledge and healing. The people at APL inspire me and fill me with hope for a brighter future that we can build together. I will definitely be back soon ;) All my love and gratitude, Ryan.

If there was an option for 6 stars, I'd probably give APL one. This has to have been the most challenging, humbling and healing experience of my life. Boris, Sasha, Amanda, Ubi and the rest of the team have managed to create something the world desperately needs - a safe, protective container for accessing and channeling archetypal energies. I saw healing take place I could never have imagined, not just for myself but for everyone in the group. The respect, care and authenticity of everyone there - including Pepe - left me speechless. I have never experienced such love and nurturing affection as I did in that one week in Malaga. I will most certainly return. Thank you APL for a life-changing experience! Love and light, S

Heartfelt thanks dear APL's! The plant dieta in the Peruvian jungle has led to a deep improvement in my chronic neck pain and headaches. A true miracle what this 14-day stay has accomplished. It was not just another attempt to treat the pain symptomatically but a real healing process at the foundation, at the very core. Stored for life are the wonderful impressions and experiences in the jungle as well as the warm hospitality of all staff in the camp. Thank you so much! Ben

Such an amazing experience its hard to put it into words. Thanks to everyone who helped facilitate this eye opening week of self discovery. Honestly the most life changing experience, so many positives to take away and implement into your daily life. Even as I meditate now I'm transported back to the sacred ceremony space and surrounded with the wonderful people I shared it with.

Hello. My name is Angela, and I am 47 and a mother of two teenagers. I have a professional career, and unlike the former version of myself, I write this review to help inform individuals such as yourself - you who are reading this and researching. I just completed a carefully supported 8-day Ayahuasca retreat with APL Shamanic Journeys in Spain. My life will never be the same and I am forever grateful. Today, I have a genuine abundance of joy ….and love for life. I owe this plant medicine from the Amazon jungle, the professional and caring APL Journey team, and the incredible Shaman healer, Alberto, my life. After a decade of debilitating health issues from lifelong stress, pain, trauma, grief, sadness, loss, holistic therapies, yoga and meditation, and traditional therapies and medications to treat my auto-immune disease, Ankylosing Spondalytis, Uveitis, and other health and inflammatory issues, I came to a rock bottom crossroads. I am the classic picture of looking healthy and put together on the outside, while broken, sick and wounded on the inside. After researching psychedelics as a healing alternative (I turned into a bonafide investigator reading everything), I decided to try to heal through Ayahausca, and APL Journey carried the best (and most) 5-star reviews. Nothing prepared me for the profound physical, mental and spiritual healing experience, for my Ayahausca journey was often a treacherous path to walk. Under the professional, safe, loving, and supportive guidance of expert facilitators, Boris and Sasha; true Amazonian Shaman healer, Alberto; experienced integrative psychedelics counselor and therapist, Amanda; and the wisdom from trauma and psychedelics specialist and psychotherapist, Ross; I was able to and radically unfold, heal and transform. Ayahuasca is a medicine that deserves respect for it is a spiritial and whole body alignment and unravelling of all things, patterns, toxins that need to be removed in order to begin whole again. It is anything but easy, and I am a different person than I was 10 days ago. With the deepest respect and gratitide, I whole-heartedly recommend APL Journey to anyone at a crossroads or rock-bottom, and looking for a new chance at life through Ayahuasca medicine, and looking for professionalism and safety. If you are seeking plant medicine or any kind of psychedelic treatment for healing, you also carry a great deal of self responsibility with your diet, full disclosure and eliminations of drugs, alcohol, and many other medicines. Therefore, if you are seriously considering Ayahausca, please be safe and responsible and speak with their team if you have any questions. If you follow their guidance, you will be in safe and loving hands with the APL Shamanic Journeys team. All the best to you and your next step to freedom. As for myself, my life is just beginning and Ayahausca will have an integrated role in it. With love, Angela Ryden

The work has just begun. The retreat was very well organized and the people were so knowledgeable experts. I truly appreciated their experience with the medicine and how they could relate to what I was going through. Being supported with counselling plus the medicine and the shaman, made for a total holistic approach to this. I also liked that it wasn't just ayahuasca, but we were also introduced and educated about other master plants and amazon medicine and were able to try it. It was encouraged that we try everything that we were comfortable with and then we have the ability to go further. I was nervous to arrive to a location with 14 strangers. But they all became close friends. Sharing all our secrets and feelings and then going through the ceremonies deepened our connection to each other and to madre aya. Overall, it was life-altering experience. One that has embarked me on a new journey. A new path. Thank you to my group and the APL team.

The best place in Europe to connect with Ayahuasca. Deep respect to the tradition of the Amazonian healing combined with modern therapeutical understanding of integration process made my experience with APL truly magical! I can not think of another place in Europe that would offer an experience of connection with true Peruvian master healers in a comfortable European setting the way APL does it. I’m truly happy that these guys were my guides to the ancient tradition of shamanism. I’m forever grateful 💚

The experience at APL has been the most incredible experience of my life and has enabled me to change my life in so many ways. I can’t thanks the team enough for all the love and support shown to me. I cannot rate this experience highly enough but am so so thankful I was able to experience this powerful medicine. I look forward to one day returning and hopefully joining a retreat in Peru one day! Thank you all x

This was a life-changing experience with the amazing crew at APL. This is including Boris, Sasha, Amanda, Ross, Ube, the amazing chefs and finally Alberto the Shaman who looked after us every step of the way. We were welcomed on the first day and any anxiety that one had about the next 8 days was swiftly put to bed. I do not want to ruin the experience by detailing the ceremonies, but I will say that it is mind-blowing in a very safe environment. Just live and die by the following 3 words: TRUST RESPECT SURRENDER If like me you were coasting in life with some bad habits (alcohol to name a few) then get this 8-day retreat booked ASAP. I am honestly a new person.

Where do I even begin? This journey has changed my life. I come from a health professional background and have a scientific head, I’ve been in and out of depression for a number of years. I came onto the APL with an open mind and heart but not excepting the significant changes it has made to my life. I have been on such a journey and I am so grateful to everyone at APL for making this possible. I honestly from the bottom of my heart cannot recommended them enough.

My experience with Ayavasca wouldn’t have been so incredible if it was not for APL team. They surrounded the whole group with such an amount of care and individual attention that there was no question or concern left before, during or after the ceremony. I felt totally safe and supported from the first to the last minute of the retreat. The facility is charming and the food was amazing served in very generous portions - no chance to stay hungry. The ayavasca experience itself was something magical. No therapy I tried before gave me such an outcome in healing the old traumas. If you are still hesitating - don’t. It’s not a walk in the park and can be rough at times but once the ceremony is over you feel like a new person, a better one, a happier one. I’m writing this review a week after the retreat and every day during this past week I was pinching myself to make sure I am not dreaming but living my life. Thank you sincerely, Peruvian healers, for discovering the magic of medicinal plants! Thank you sincerely, APL team, for doing an incredible job to share it with others in need!

If you want to do Ayahuasca in Europe this is the place to go. Every single person in the team made my experience special. I had a great time, I felt like at home and I literally have only positive things to say. The kitchen team managed to make delicious dishes every day despite of all the limitations we had, Amanda, Boris and Aleksandr, our facilitators, supported us in every step of the journey, they really know what they are doing, so if you are looking for people who have experience with the medicine, you are in a safe place here. Our curandero was Alberto, again he grew up with Ayahuasca so he knows the medicine like the back of his hands and answered any of our questions, was always there available to talk to us and give us guidance. The villa is beautiful and in a great location, immerse in nature. Again, I highly recommend APL Journeys, it was my first experience with Ayahuasca and I never felt scared or uncomfortable.
