Description

Dive into a deep connection and inner healing experience with an authentic ancestral Cacao Ceremony in Cusco, an ancient ritual that opens your heart and harmonizes your body, mind, and spirit. Your journey kicks off with a transfer from your hotel in downtown Cusco to a sacred spot surrounded by Andean nature. When you arrive, you'll be welcomed into a circle that creates an atmosphere of trust and respect. Our shamanic guide will share the story of ceremonial cocoa, its energy as a master plant, and its ancient use as a bridge to inner wisdom. The ceremony kicks off with mindful breathing, guided meditation, and gentle relaxation exercises, getting your body and mind ready to soak in the healing power of cocoa. You'll get to enjoy a 100% pure drink, infused with Andean spices, served hot to awaken your intuition and open up your heart. As the cocoa kicks in, the guide guides the journey with healing sounds: ancestral chants, drums, bowls, and maracas that elevate the vibe and help you look inside yourself. During the ritual, you'll get to experience: - Smudging with Andean herbs to cleanse and protect your energy. - Guided shamanic journey, where music and visualization take you to a state of deep connection. I'm praying with a coca leaf, thanking Pachamama and sealing the intention for transformation. The circle wraps up with sharing insights, words of gratitude, and a snack of local fruits. Finally, we'll head back to your hotel in Cusco with an open heart and a feeling of peace and fullness that'll stick with you long after the experience.

Important Information

  • The ceremony takes place at 3,400 meters, so it's a good idea to spend at least a day in Cusco to get used to the altitude before you join in. This isn't your typical tourist activity: it's a spiritual and meditative experience, so we ask for silence and respect throughout the ritual. No alcohol or drugs allowed before or during the ceremony. Cocoa is mild, but it can boost your heart rate. If you have heart issues, high blood pressure, or are pregnant, make sure to check with your doctor before booking. Bring only the personal items you need; the ceremonial space is free from tech distractions. The event happens indoors or outdoors, depending on the weather; we recommend wearing comfy clothes and warm layers.
