Educational & Spiritual - Good experience. Nice hike through jungle areas. Great teaching about local indigenous religious beliefs and practices. The hike is not entirely smooth and easy. Be in relatively good health.

Amazing! - Great hike to the different cultural spots with an indigenous guide and translator. Highly recommend. Make sure you are wearing good shoes as some parts are quite vertical.

It was a very nice walk, with incredible landscapes and full of spirituality. - It was an excellent experience from the treatment of Yahir the tour guide and Santos, the representative of the Huichol community behaved excellent, giving us explanation throughout the walk and making small stops that make the experience really enjoyable. It is an experience that includes nature, walking and spirituality. Excellent activity

Take this opportunity! - This is a great morning hike with spiritual blessings and great history on the area. The total hike is roughly 2 hours, there are some steep hills and some of the trails can be washed out so I suggest good shoes. I am 55, out of shape and made it in slides. I do not recommend doing that, wear good walking shoes and be comfortable walking up hills. Jair and Santos are amazing and gave us so much history and spiritual information, this is a great way to spend the morning. And, breakfast at Chapman’s was amazing. Great experience, would definitely do this hike again.

Connect with the landscape - We really appreciated this ritual/spiritual hike. We are big city folk but looking to connect to the body and nature, and this hike did exactly that. Jair and Santos were welcoming, informed, courteous and genuine. The morning hike means less heat and fewer bugs and that was just fine with us. The jungle/nature is fascinating, along with centuries-old indigenous relationship to it. Jair also provided some lovely recommendations for our stay in Sayulita.

Amazing experience - This was such an amazing experience. My brother and I enjoyed connecting with nature with guidance of Jair and Santos. They elaborated on the why of our walk, in which ways to appreciate what’s in our world. How to reconnect with our roots. And how to listen. You’re taken through the beautiful landscape of Sayulita to a hidden treasure of peace, you see parts untouched by man. I will be recommending this to all my friends and family.

An experience that transformed my journey - This tour was much more than a walk. It was a trip to the heart of Wixarika culture. The blessing ceremony with Saints the spiritual guide of the community left me speechless; I felt a deep connection to the earth and myself. Walking through the jungle, listening to the sacred stories and ending up on that hidden beach was like a rebirth. It's not just a tour, it's a life experience!

An unforgettable experience - Peace and connection in the jungle. As a solo traveler, I was searching for more than just conventional tourism. This experience gave me so much more. The sacred ceremony was deeply moving, the intimate group felt like a family, and the secluded beach was perfect for reflection. The spiritual guide radiated an energy that made you feel safe, grounded, and in harmony. Ideal for anyone seeking to reconnect with themselves on a deeper level.
