NEW!
Spend a month with the
Matsés!
(NOT for the faint of heart! Do not
apply unless truly motivated!)

Picture from Tribe.net
Deep in the Amazon rainforest, lodged between the Yavarí and
the Galvez rivers, on the border between Peru and Brazil, live the
Matsés. This tribe, which has only been in contact with the outside
world for 40 years, is one of the few remaining authentic indigenous
peoples of the Amazon. They still live in the traditional ways of their
ancestors and rely completely on the forest they call home.
Read about the
Matsés in more detail here!
ikitos.com now offers you the opportunity
to spend
an entire month with these friendly,
hospitable people
(or two, if you like!)
You will live with the Matsés, share their homes, explore the
forest with them and learn about their way of life. Their shaman will teach
you about the spirits, the animals and medicinal plants of the forest, and
he will guide you through the rituals they perform, using purgative potions
like sapo and ayahuasca.
