I have traveled the world and seen many fascinating places, and Willka T’ika is the one I plan to return to again and again. The gardens are exquisite, the food is brimming with vitality and the location is conducive to experiencing the ancient essence. Our warm-hearted hosts, Carol and Mark, have created an atmosphere of beauty and tranquility. Together with the very loving indigenous people of Peru, they have handcrafted an ideal and nurturing retreat. The combination of a daily …

Carol, Mark and the staff of locals make this a most special place. Our guide and co-adventurer, spoke with such passion for her homeland that we all grew to love her and Peru. The organization and attention to detail helped our group feel right at home. The skylight in the Yoga Room enhanced our Suryanamaska in the morning, and the blankets were deluxe. The whole group said that they had never been fed so well and with such consistent quality …

Willka T’ika combines the best of Peru:a beautiful setting, delicious food and wonderfully warm people-to make a yoga retreat here a delight.

It has indeed been an amazing and Magical Journey! From the sacred sites of Cusco, to the sacred gardens in Willka T’ika, the magnificent meals, rooms, and service and, of course, Machu Picchu – it has been an exquisite and transformative experience. NIA has found Willka T’ika and we will be back!

Not only were we ‘flying high’ from the magnificent gardens, great food, and of course the altitude, but it was the ‘down to earth’ hospitality and warmth of both the staff and owner, Carol, that really touched our hearts. I can’t imagine a more perfect spot to teach yoga.

We leave your healing oasis in the Sacred Valley filled up with spirit. . . renewal, inspired and soaring to new heights. Thank you for your expert care, kindness and for making the It’s Yoga group feel so nurtured on this journey. Willka T’ika is an ideal location for yoga: sacred sites, sacred people, delicious food, and top-notch organization. I know we will be returning every year.

My second ‘Magical Journey’ to Peru. This is a very special place. Everything is done with love. Flowers without end. Delicious meals and the greatest comforts in all of Peru.

It is beautiful, peaceful, and joyous here. Your gardens are a work of art. You are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing.

Willka T’ika is a true gift. After 22 years of teaching yoga and guiding adventure travel in Peru, we are so happy to have found this special place to stay. Fresh organic food made and served by loving Quechua staff, inspirational gardens, the great yoga room, clean and charming sleeping rooms makes this a place where we can feel at home while feeling a connection with a culture that we love. The Sacred Valley is right out the door. The …

What we found was a place of heart-felt tranquility, balance and spirituality, where one’s practice of yoga felt more “connected”; connected to the heart and its peoples came to us through our guide, provided by the Magical Journey. In effect, our guide became a twentieth member of our group, leading us to varied sites, explaining the history of each reaching back to and through the Inkan era, and sharing with us the passion and pride of the Quechua people.
