Welcome to the
Valley of Longevity

When you get here,
you'll understand.

A sacred valley, a slower rhythm, a place to remember yourself

Tucked into the southern Andes, Vilcabamba is more than a destination, its a feeling. A lush, sun-drenched valley where time softens, mountains hold you, and the peace of life invites you to breathe deeper.

This land is the land I now call home. The place that welcomed me into its rhythm and changed the way I see everything. I created this guide for travelers, seekers, and soul-led wanderers who feel called to this corner of Ecuador. Whether you're coming for a photo session with the best photographer in the Andes, an Ayahuasca and San Pedro ceremony with the world renowned shaman Allen Francis Waugh, or just to experience the magic of Vilcabamba yourself.

Below you'll find my personal recommendations on where to stay, eat, and explore. All from someone who lives here, walks these trails, and photographs this land with deep love.

Let the light lead your heart, and listen to it.
Vilcabamba is waiting for you.
