About
our Tours: Our tour programs are unique in that
they provide an opportunity for you to join others of like
mind in spiritual, sacred, holistic and metaphysical experimental
exploration. Naturally we cannot "sell spirituality",
nor can we guarantee that a "shaman is a shaman"
or that you will receive "healing" on any level,
but we do invite you to join us on an outward/inward journey
of self-discovery, where you can open your mind, expand
your awareness and take home profound life-changing insights
and experiences. The level of healing, knowledge, spirituality
etc. that you experience will depend on yourself. Jo Buchanan,
one of our tour facilitators, sums it all up as she writes:
"No matter how far you travel, if it is transformation
you are seeking, it will only occur when you are ready.
For change can only come from within, which is the most
sacred site of all".
