Join us for our celebrated signature in-house, fully inclusive Essential Wellness Retreats. Upcoming 2026 dates are August 21–27 and October 9–15. This retreat welcomes individuals, couples, and small groups of friends traveling together, and is thoughtfully curated by Willka Tika’s Director, Terry Cumes, along with onsite Manager, Verena Velazco.

For the August 21–27 retreat, Life by Design: Navigating Your Path with Shamanic Wisdom, special workshops will also be led by resident shaman Samer Mouawad, who has supported retreat guests for many years through wellness coaching and sacred Andean ceremonies. Designed to go beyond conventional goal-setting, this experience uses ancient shamanic tools to help you shape a life of purpose and deep alignment. Held in the powerful energy of the Andes and Pachamama, it invites you to connect the mystical with the practical, offering the clarity and structure needed to move through modern life with harmony and heart.

The fully inclusive rate per person includes single or shared garden room accommodations, all vegetarian meals, daily yoga, daily classes, local hiking to the nearby Maras salt flats and the Pumahuanca River, select spa treatments, and additional activities as outlined in the program. A $300 deposit confirms your reservation, and the balance is due 30 days before arrival in Peru.

The Willka T’ika Essential Wellness Program brings together 30 years of experience and authentic Andean healing traditions in a 7-day wellness retreat. Created for today’s traveler seeking reconnection with the healing energy of Mother Earth, Pachamama, the program follows the structure of Willka T’ika’s Seven Chakra Gardens. Each day centers on one chakra, or energy center, and includes a guided sequence of mindful activities, therapeutic treatments, farm-to-table meals, homemade essential oils, and powerful Andean ceremonies.

On Day 1, Friday, you begin with the 1st, or Earth, Chakra and connect with Pachamama. Days 2 and 3, Saturday and Sunday, focus on the Water and Fire Chakras through Andean ceremonies, yoga, and breathtaking hikes. By the end of the weekend, body and mind have been cleansed. Day 4 brings the Heart Chakra and a heart-opening cacao ceremony. Day 5 highlights the Throat Chakra with sound healing featuring local musicians. Day 6 opens the Third-Eye, or 6th Chakra, with an optional San Pedro ceremony offered on either Day 5 or 6. On Day 7, you rest and integrate all that you have learned and healed throughout this journey through the Seven Chakras.
