6 DAYS / 5 NIGHTS:
"Mystical village tours Harakmbut / Matsigenka".
The Matsiguenga de Shipetiari indigenous community and other communities, invite lovers of the Amazon, its nature and its cultures to visit them to share and interchange spirituality and friendship. Apart from being a very comfortable and least challenging of our tours it is also the best way of getting to know a bit about the everyday life of the indigenous cultures. We will discover some of their customs, a traditional plant centre and get a chance to take part in the experience of the ritual of an Ayahuasca session with an expert Matsiguenka shaman. We also offer short treks and the chance to visit the "Collpa" clay beds of Yanayaco, at the end if we are lucky we may get to see the giant river otters in the indigenous community of Isla de los Valles.
