For the past 4 years we’ve led life-changing yoga retreats to Willka T’ika in the Sacred Valley of Peru. Willka T’ika is the quintessential set and setting to experience authentic Andean culture while diving deeper into yoga practice. It is a Yogi’s dream, with Chakra Meditation Gardens, inspiring practice spaces and world class healthy and conscious dining. It is the perfect take off point for excursions and exploration into the surrounding sacred Inkan sites. Best of all, however, is the …

After visiting and scouting many retreats around the world over the past 23yrs of teaching, Willka T’ika is now among the top of our list. The attention to detail, incredible staff and amazing food is just the beginning. The facilities are spectacular, a well planned yoga space and their ability to seamlessly support our large group is beyond words. I highly recommend it.

Our trip to Willka Tika was one of the most incredible trips of our life! It was the perfect blend of wellness and serenity, with the added rush of adventure to whatever degree one chooses. The access to sacred and historical Inca and other cultural sites nearby including Machu Picchu was unprecedented relative to any place we’ve ever traveled. Some very cool historical sites such as the salt mines near enough to hike and/or bike to.! Our hosts, Terry and …

Bucket list trip… this heavenly place in the Sacred Valley of Peru was created by a most remarkable woman, Carol Cumes. Her Chakra Gardens are magical, spiritual. Consider staying here when you wish to visit Machu Picchu.

“This was our first Mystery School retreat under the McKenna Academy, and as ever, I am happy to be working with Willka T’ika on such transformative programs. There is no better place in the Sacred Valley, perhaps in the world, for such events to take place. The magic of Willka T’ika’s Chakra Gardens combined with the spiritual power of sound meditation makes for an experience unlike any other.”

We appreciated all the gorgeous gardens of the resort, the tenderness of all who worked there, the delicious food & travel guide recommendations! I’m honestly not sure we would have seen or done all the things we did without your referrals. We definitely will be back again, will continue to spread the love of Peru, and will highly recommend to stay at your lovely, lovely resort.

WOW!!! There are no words to describe the energy & beauty of this place is amazing–to the eye, feel & smell.  All of the property is a 10!  The staff go above & beyond their duty, they are always there for you, no matter what you need. Carol it was a pleasure to meet you & your son, Terry!  Thank you ever so much for the best vacation ever.  I must say I have never met such a remarkable tour guide as Silverio. …

This has been one of the best experiences of my life. Om Namah Sivayah. This is my first visit and I feel the beginning of a special and new relationship. The physical environment of Willka T’ika is so beautiful and amazing and a great setting for our practice. I loved the combination of gardens, sacred hikes through ancient terrains and the wisdom of Inkan spirituality. This all has made a huge impact on me and I look forward to many …

Willka T’ika is a paradise that allows you to slip into the Peruvian culture with a deep ahhh! The gardens, the staff and the owner Carol Cumes are exquisite like the unexplainable walls of Machu Picchu. It feels so right to stay in a guesthouse retreat that supports the local community, that promotes organic sustainable farming and that nourishes its guests with the wisdom of Peru. Thank you.

This place is truly magical! The staff creates a feeling of being home. The land, the people, the sacredness of this country, is so incredible that words cannot convey. I look forward to bringing more groups of people to this special place – Willka T’ika.
