5-days Iboga retreat in Europe

Our basic retreat lasts 5-days and it includes 3 nights of Iboga.


We begin with an opening ceremony around the fire, during which there is an introduction to the “Invisible World” and a declaration of intentions.

After that follows a spiritual bath (water with herbs), and then it is time to take the Iboga.

During the stay, there are three ceremonies held over three nights, called Ngozé. This means that you take Iboga while we play and sing live music with the sacred Bwiti harp (Ngomo or Ngombi) from evening until morning. The songs are performed in three languages — the original African Bwiti language called “popi”, Latin, and Czech (see more at the Music page).

The first night is dedicated to spiritual birth, the second to spiritual death, and the third to spiritual rebirth.

During the process, you will also receive your new Bwiti spiritual name called “nkombo” from the Spirit of Iboga and we talk about your spiritual journeys.

Before departure, there is a final ceremony, called Okandzo, during which you offer a financial gift of any amount in addition to what you contributed in advance, and ask for a safe return home.

How to prepare for our Iboga retreat?

Are you addicted? There is an option for you.

Iboga 14-days retreat for addicted people

If you are struggling with an addiction (for example to alcohol, opioids, marijuana, kratom, psychiatric medications, heroin, methamphetamine, or other substances) and you want to free yourself from it, Ibogaine or Iboga therapy may be a path worth considering.

However, this process is not simple, and the most important part of the journey is the integration that takes place after returning home.

Our 2-week retreat is designed for those who know they are ready to begin a new life — a life of freedom and love for themselves and others.

The first week is dedicated to physical cleansing. For direct withdrawal from substances, it is often appropriate to use a chemical Ibogaine extract. The amount provided is intended to help reduce unwanted cravings and support freedom on a physical level.

However, if you returned home immediately after reaching this state, the risk of relapse would be very high. It is recommended to stay for the second week as well, during which you will undergo three profound sessions with natural Iboga root bark, allowing for spiritual, psychological, and emotional cleansing, as well as creating a plan for your integration process.
