Arrive in Cusco – Transfer to Mountain House Retreat

There will be a wonderful taxi driver outside of the airport with your name on a placard. He will take you to the Mountain House Retreat. *Please note – Cusco is at 11,000 feet. Take it easy and slowly… the altitude may be evident.

Most people don’t have any issues with the altitude and never have any discomfort. For those that do – there will be oxygen at the Mountain House for you along with cocoa tea to help ease any altitude symptoms.

There will be a light and nutritious lunch waiting for you.

Take time to rest and / or go to your scheduled hyperbaric chamber / massage appointment at ReEnergize Cusco (Appointments will be scheduled before you arrive). If you have any altitude issues – this usually clears them up straight away!

Late afternoon Opening Circle with group to set intentions and frequency shifts for the journey.

Special evening ritual welcoming this powerful time and energy at the Temple of the Moon.

Casual group dinner at the Mountain House.

Overnight Mountain House Retreat Center.

About Cusco

Cusco is a beautiful city in an incredible location. Surrounded on all sides by the majestic Andes mountains – you will love exploring its cobble-stone streets and shops.

Cusco was laid out in the form of a puma, the animal that symbolized the Inca dynasty. The belly of the puma was the main plaza, the river Tullumayo formed its spine, and the hill of Sacsayhuaman its head.

The meaning of the word Cusco comes from the Quechua language meaning “navel” and is considered by the Inca to be the “Center of the World”.

Cusco is a combination of the ancient Inca capital and the colonial city it became after the Spanish invasion. From the Incas, it preserves impressive walls of meticulously cut granite, streets running within the walls and many Inca ruins.

The bustling Plaza de Armas and surrounding streets are full of colorful shops, sights and delicious restaurants. Easy to explore on your own.

Plaza del Armas, a lively urban gathering place offering colonial arcades, a cathedral & central fountain. It is the heart-beat of central Cusco with shops, restaurants, historic cathedral and La Compania, is a Jesuit church built in the 16th century.
