"Spending a week dedicated to self-awareness and reconnecting with nature can be a transformative experience. This retreat allows individuals to step away from daily distractions and immerse themselves in a calming, natural environment. The retreat includes a blend of mindfulness practices, such as meditation, breathing and yoga, alongside outdoor activities like hiking, nature walks and going to the sea. A daily schedule often features morning rituals, time for reflection through journaling, and evening gratitude practices. Femke and Marijn truly made the experience special.🥹❤️ They were warm, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone of us felt at ease & at home. The supportive environment created by Femke & Marijn made it so easy to open up and explore personal growth. it was an unforgettable experience & Iam so grateful to know these two beautiful souls. I enjoyed sharing meals and exchanging stories and laughter, which created a sense of community that I truly cherished. Each meal was a highlight! Iam so grateful for this experience from the lessons learned, the beauty of nature, the friendships I gained and the opportunity to reconnect with myself and others. It was a reminder of what truly matters and the joy found in being truly YOU." 🤍💫✨

“What I love about the guidance of Femke and Marijn is that they have that “keep it real” vibe over them. They are both down to earth as well as full of depth. I have experienced there guidance as a warm blanket of support during my first expierence with San Pedro Cactus. Which was a powerful experience that still (years past) weaves its thread through my life. The place they have is a gemstone and will make you feel right at home and connected to the ancient land of Andalucia. Please look around, the cactus grows very well there…"

"Amazing life changing retreat! I can't thank Femke and Marijn enough for what they gave me on this retreat truly truly life changing. I've been doing Ayahuasca on and off for 10 years and had some amazing breakthroughs and journeys. I was on the way to Columbia to do a retreat in the rainforest and I had a calling to do San Pedro before. After finding Taita I just knew I had to go. After a fabulous chat with Marijn who answered all my questions and his beautiful energy I was left in no doubt. Femke and Marijn have created such a beautiful place for healing in the Spanish countryside a paradise that felt like coming home. The kundalini yoga with Femke before the ceremony was amazing opening up the body to receive the medicine and my day with San Pedro was utterly profound. Truly the best thing I have ever done helping me to access deep trauma that I hadn' t realised I still carried. I felt completely safe and protected to release everything inside of me that I hadn't been able to ever do before. I can't thank Femke and Marijn enough for the love they showed me and the support they gave me when I needed it most!!!! Wandering in nature and recieving this powerful medicine I ve never felt so free. That day I found my power and my life has been forever changed. The accommodation is top notch and the food was divine Marijn is a food god!!! I feel truly blessed to have had this experience and so happy to have met two other beautiful souls who journeyed with me Gabby and Miko. Thank you also for the support and love. I really can t recommend this retreat enough. Truly for me the best one I ve ever been on and I m looking forward to many more with Taita. THANKYOU!!!!" 🙏🙏🙏

Amazing experience “San Pedro was an amazing teacher, much softer than Aya as a teacher but the journey was so beautiful and full of wisdom that is still coming to me a month later.”

"The retreat was truly a profound experience—a much-needed pause to deeply reflect and reconnect with ourselves and nature. It was the perfect 1 week escape from the busy world, allowing us to turn inward and focus on self-awareness. Femke and Marjin felt like family, caring for us so genuinely and guiding us every step of the way. Their warmth and support made the experience more meaningful. 🤗🤍 And of course, the meals! They convinced me that healthy, Vegi food can be both delicious and satisfying, thanks to the creativity of the chef—every dish was a delight. 🍲 😍 I'm grateful for the journey, for the friendships, the insights I gained & the deep connection I made with myself. Leaving this retreat with more depth, joy, and gratitude, hoping to carry this feeling forward. Thank you again for the experience." 🤍🙏

"Both of my retreats with Taita Travel were amazing from beginning to end. There's just something magical about their place, tucked away between the mountains, like a peaceful oasis where nature's powers are palpable. The days begin with energizing yoga or a leisurely mountain walk, serenaded by the sea breeze and the warm morning sun. At night, the stars illuminate the sky in a way I had never seen before. Trusting Marijn & Femke with such a transformative experience was the best decision I've made."
