During the Sacred Ceremony, the Master prays with three Coca leaves (Kintu) that Mother Earth gave to us and to the Apus (Great Mountain Spirits). The shamanic healer also uses items like candy, colored wools, myrrh, frankincense, tallow and a variety of foods and herbs that Andean people called “reach or dispatch“. These items have to be specifically prepared for the offering by the Master or Andean Priest, who is also called «Paqos». Each element has its spiritual meaning andis therefore part of the ceremony. The session ends with a last prayer to the world and to our life. The online course will be transmitted via Zoom. The offering to Pachamama (Mother Earth) allows us to give thanks to everything we have been receiving and appreciate her generosity, creating a feeling of harmony and deep connection with nature, letting her know that we feel unconditional love for Mother Earth and the spirits within us.

It's the complete opposite of a classic and boring tour where everything is always the same. Each experience is different; sometimes we dine at a seafood restaurant, other times at a jungle cuisine spot, and many more options.

We've been adventurous since as long as we can remember, so if you're seeking an adventure where you won't even want to touch your phone to check social media and instead disconnect from the outside world to connect with Lima, then this is the right experience for you.
