What is Grandfather Wachuma?
Along with Ayahuasca, Tobacco and Mama Coca; Wachuma is one of Peru’s most Sacred Plant Medicines and spiritual bridge. Wachuma ceremonies date back thousands of years throughout Andean cultures; these highly evolved civilizations established one of their many connections with the Divine spirit and creator through these sacred ceremonies.
Wachuma's purpose is to open the hearts of those who have lost the sacred connection we all have with Mother Earth. This heart-opening ceremony is one special way to align our body, temple, Body, Mind, and Spirit with nature and the Divine source.
Grandfather Wachuma is used for prayer, communing with nature, gaining access to the spiritual world, expanding consciousness, and healing on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels. Our ceremonies have been passed down from generation to generation, ensuring the purity of the Medicine Keepers, and have been kept in their most organic form, the way our ancestors, the Inca People led them.

PAUL ERWIN
I had no idea what to expect on my trip to Peru with Willkasara but what I experienced was far beyond what I could have imagined. Not only did I experience the beauty of the land, the sweetness of the people, the amazing local cuisine, the rich history of the place but what was really amazing was what I experience inside of myself. The sacred land & the wisdom of the Inca became alive in me through the amazing ceremonies & powerful guidance of our guides. Our guides didn't only show us & tour us through the ancient ruins but they gave us the experience of the ancient people. What I experienced was beyond amazing. It was the experience of joy, happiness, love, peace of mind, connection, clarity of thought, wisdom, simply said mind-blowing. If you've never been to Peru you are missing out & I would not experience Peru with anyone else. Willkasara is the only group I know that can give you the spirit & feeling of Peru beyond being a tourist. In Peru I became an experiencist. Wachan, Martika, Shiqwarkenty you were our guides & now you are our family. Thank you Thank you Thank you... Forever in gratitude for the incredible people you are...
