Solstice At Machu Picchu

This tour has been specially designed to climax in Machu Picchu at the time of the June solstice, the "Birth of the Sun," the holiest time of the year for the Incas.

The Temple of the Sun, Machu Picchu's most sacred place, was built especially for the Solstice. To witness sunrise in Machu Picchu during the Solstice celebration, as the magnificent architecture is touched by the golden rays of dawn, is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The purpose of this tour is to provide you with unique information, insights and spirit-centered experiences of the lost wisdom of the Incas and other ancient teachings, which can be a springboard for personal and planetary transformation and healing. The energy of Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley of the Incas provides a perfect environment to accelerate spiritual growth and understanding.

Sacred Valley Of The Incas

In addition to the activities in Machu Picchu, much of our tour will be held at a beautiful resort nestled in the serene Urubamba Valley, the "Sacred Valley of the Incas." Here you can feel the "Apus," or Mountain Spirits, looking down from the surrounding peaks. The Incas believed that gods lived in the mountains above this Sacred Valley. In this tranquil environment you will have time to enjoy the nurturing landscape that surrounds you as you explore the ancient wisdom of the Incas.

Majestic Machu Picchu

At majestic Machu Picchu, the legendary "Lost City of the Incas," you will be located in nearly inaccessible mountains in the heart of a tropical rain forest. Set in a breathtaking location within a 360 degree ring of majestic Andean peaks, the ruins are alive with mystical energy. Explore and experience the temples and feel the enveloping peacefulness inherent at this most sacred of places.

Meet Native Shamans

Another exciting feature of this tour is the opportunity to meet with native shamans of the ancient Incan tradition. With its magnificent scenery, breathtaking monuments and wealth of cultural history, Peru provides a powerful setting for our tour.

At the pivot point of the year, when the native people pray for the return of the Sun and the arrival of more light in their lives, we shall gather to bring increasingly powerful spiritual energies and healing to ourselves and the planet. You will also have time for Peru's colorful present-day culture, places and people. Plan to enjoy the fascinating towns, the fine shopping and the truly warm-hearted people.
