Andean Magic & Mystery
A Yoga Journey to Machu Picchu & the Sacred Valley of Peru
July 8-16th, 2026
As one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Machu Picchu is without a doubt one of the most awe-inspiring sights on Earth. But as amazing as it is to behold and learn about, it is only one of many breathtaking, and frankly mind-blowing aspects of Peru’s Sacred Valley and the surrounding area. From the mysterious Incan ruins of Moray, Saqsaywaman and Pisaq to the Maras salt mines to the stunning vistas of the snow-capped Andes all around, this corner of the world is brimming with magic and mystery—not to mention incredible craftsmanship and delicious food. The purpose of this retreat is to give you an opportunity to immerse yourself in as many of these wonders as possible while also providing the time and space for you to integrate all that you experience, learn about and discover through the lens of yoga practice.
Our base for this adventure will be the world-renowned Willka T’ika, a luxury boutique retreat and wellness center located in the heart of the Sacred Valley. With their two beautiful yoga shalas, gorgeous accommodations, first-class spa, farm-to-table meals and famous Seven Chakra Garden, it is an idyllic and perfect base for our explorations.
In addition to all of the sights and places of interest mentioned above, this retreat has been customized to offer not one, but two days at Machu Picchu. This includes an overnight stay at a separate boutique hotel in Aguas Calientes, the vibrant town at the base of Machu Picchu, as well as the opportunity to hike up Huayna Picchu, a steep peak that offers a spectacular view from above of the famous ruins.
