Is Your Ayahuasca Retreat Authentic or Just Another Commercialized Experience?

In recent years, the popularity of ayahuasca retreats has surged in the West, but this rise has also led to a dilution of the sacred nature of these ceremonies. Many retreats are now run by Westerners, for Westerners, often losing touch with the deep-rooted traditions and healing powers that these ceremonies are meant to uphold.

Discover a Truly Authentic Experience

At Kene Nete Healing Center, we offer an ayahuasca retreat that stays true to its origins. Our retreat is run by a Shipibo family, deep in the Amazon, who carry centuries of experience working with the Master Plant Dieta used in their ceremonies. This is not just another retreat; it’s a deeply personal and immersive healing experience, led by healers who are deeply connected to the traditions of their ancestors.

Why Choose Kene Nete?

● Fully Immersive Environment: You’ll live amongst the plants that are used in the ceremonies, deep in the heart of the Amazon rainforest. This environment is crucial for a truly transformative experience, allowing you to connect with the natural world in a way that simply isn't possible in commercialized retreats.

● Deeply Personal Attention: With a maximum capacity of only 6 guests, and often 3 shamans present in each ceremony, you’ll receive the attention and care needed to truly benefit from the plant medicines.

● Experienced Guides: Our shamans have centuries of plant medicine ceremonies in their heritage. They are healers by nature, and their guidance through your journey will be powerful and transformative.

What Our Guests Say

Our guests consistently share life-changing experiences. From those who came seeking answers to deep, personal questions to those simply curious about the power of ayahuasca, the common thread in their stories is the authenticity and care they experienced at Kene Nete.

One guest, TJ from the USA, shares, "When I came here, I was searching for death, I wasn’t searching for life. It was hard, but once I gave up the pride and the ego, it was such a beautiful journey."

James Webb from the UK states, "Words can’t describe the time I’ve had here. I wanted to experience Ayahuasca with a traditional Shipibo family, and that is exactly what you get here."

Our Story and Philosophy

Kene Nete Healing Center was born out of a need to preserve the authenticity of ayahuasca ceremonies. Maestro Esteban and Maestra Olinda, our lead shamans, spent over 15 years working at various westernized retreats in Pucallpa and Iquitos, only to find that these retreats didn’t follow the Shipibo way. Disappointed by the lack of respect for their traditions, they teamed up with Urban, a Swedish man with a passion for alternative healing, to create an authentic ayahuasca retreat.

In 2020, after months of planning and building, Kene Nete Healing Center welcomed its first guest. Unlike other retreats, we don’t offer predefined programs. Instead, you choose the time period you’d like to come, and our shamans will craft a personal program tailored to your goals.
