Caya Shobo

Caya Shobo is an operating Shipibo plant-medicine retreat centre near Iquitos with published five- and twelve-day dates through December 2026. Current options include private or shared-bathroom accommodation, four or eight ayahuasca ceremonies depending on format, plant-dieta work and integration support. Its pages variously state group limits of ten and twelve, so confirm the actual cap.

The operator says it reviews a health form for medicines and physical or psychological contraindications, provides first-response equipment, security and emergency contact with clinics in Iquitos, and uses shamans plus facilitators. These are provider-reported measures; facilitator experience and traditional titles are not the same as regulated medical or mental-health credentials.

Ayahuasca can interact dangerously with prescribed and non-prescribed substances and can worsen some psychiatric or cardiovascular conditions. Never stop medication without the prescribing clinician. Verify exclusion rules, staff licences, emergency evacuation time, safeguarding and consent, medicine provenance, room and bathroom access, insurance, programme inclusions, deposit, cancellation terms and current Peruvian law.
