A 5 day psilocybin retreat in the Netherlands is a legally held, professionally guided program built around two psilocybin truffle ceremonies with a dedicated integration day in between, structured preparation beforehand and five weeks of live integration support afterwards. Ceremonies at Acsauhaya use psilocybin truffles (sclerotia), which are permitted under Dutch law, in a small group of at most 11 participants at a private countryside venue.

I joined an Ayahuasca Ceremony here with Shurandy and Maria and Robert and I couldnt imagine a better journey. From start I felt safe, even though that was my first time with the plant and I was very nervous. In those 3 days, I felt like a part of a family, I honestly already miss those dinners where we all sat after the ceremonies sharing, laughing,crying. My heart is full. Thank you so much for everything

Ich war nun bereits zum zweiten Mal bei diesem Retreat und würde jederzeit wiederkommen. Schon meine erste Erfahrung war unglaublich bereichernd – und auch diesmal haben René und Maria es geschafft, einen Raum zu schaffen, in dem ich mich vom ersten bis zum letzten Moment bestens aufgehoben gefühlt habe. Man merkt den beiden einfach an, dass sie ihre Arbeit mit unglaublich viel Herz, Überzeugung und Erfahrung machen. Sie gehen sehr individuell auf jeden Einzelnen ein, sind jederzeit für Fragen und persönliche Gespräche da und vermitteln dabei eine wunderbare Mischung aus Herzlichkeit, Offenheit und Sicherheit. Auch als sich bei mir unerwartet eine medizinische Fragestellung ergeben hat, wurde sofort verantwortungsvoll reagiert und gemeinsam eine für mich passende Lösung gefunden. Das gesamte Retreat ist liebevoll gestaltet. Besonders Breathwork und Sound Healing waren für mich wunderschöne Erfahrungen. Auch das Essen war großartig – frisch, unglaublich lecker und mit viel Liebe zubereitet, individuelle Wünsche inklusive. Unterkunft, Organisation und Abholung haben ebenfalls wunderbar funktioniert. Ich nehme aus diesen Tagen neue Einsichten und auch eine neue Ausrichtung für Teile meines Alltags und Lebens mit. Eine absolute Empfehlung – sowohl für Menschen, die zum ersten Mal eine psychedelische Erfahrung machen möchten, als auch für Erfahrene, die nicht einfach nur einen Trip suchen, sondern sich wirklich auf sich selbst und den eigenen Prozess einlassen möchten. ❤️

A very illuminating experience with the Dutch brew! The coach team were extremely helpful and supportive (here special personal thanks to Magda!). A familial relaxed atmosphere, surrounded by nature. Great music - both thanks to the artist Francesca and our DJ Johannes. Recommended!

I had already attended a ceremony with another provider ten years ago. Both were really helpful for my personal inner development. What stands out here, however, is the intention, love, and dedication that all the staff members bring with them. What is created here is a place where you feel safe, protected, and accepted. Encountering Mother Ayahuasca is exciting, deeply moving, sometimes confusing, and, especially for new travelers, possibly overwhelming. I am all the more grateful for the attentive support given to all travelers. The wonderful food and enchanting live music almost become secondary, bringing everything together. I am grateful for the opportunity to have been part of this ceremony and also for the wonderful people who traveled with me. My gut feeling tells me that this will not be my last visit with you.

Das Einzelretreat war für mich eine unglaublich wertvolle und tiefgehende Erfahrung. Von Anfang an habe ich mich vollkommen gesehen, verstanden und achtsam begleitet gefühlt. Der geschützte Rahmen nur für mich persönlich hat es ermöglicht, wirklich in die Tiefe zu gehen und mich ganz auf meine eigenen Themen einzulassen. Die Begleitung war geprägt von grosser Präsenz und Empathie. Die Reise war individuell auf mich abgestimmt, sodass ich mich jederzeit wunderbar aufgehoben und unterstützt gefühlt habe. Ich nehme so viel mit in meinen Alltag. Dieses Retreat hat nachhaltig etwas in mir bewegt und ich bin von Herzen dankbar für diese intensive, heilsame Zeit. Absolute Empfehlung für alle, die sich selbst wirklich begegnen und bewusst weiterentwickeln möchten.

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand you may have questions about this profound journey. Here are answers to the most common inquiries from prospective participants.

General

A 5 day retreat includes two psilocybin ceremonies with a dedicated integration day in between, which allows the second journey to build on the first. The extended stay adds time for rest, nature, and 1:1 support that a weekend format cannot offer.
The retreat follows three phases: self-paced preparation before arrival, five days on site with two truffle ceremonies and an integration day between them, and a 5 week live integration program after departure.
The integration day focuses on processing the first ceremony through group sharing, rest, nature connection, sound healing, and creative expression, so you enter the second ceremony grounded and with a clear intention.
The 5 day format suits participants who want deeper immersion: those with previous psychedelic experience, and first-timers who prefer extended support and a slower pace around their ceremonies.

Which format fits you?

Prefer a compact weekend? The 3 Day Psilocybin Retreat centers on one ceremony.

Rather journey alone or with a partner? See the Private Psilocybin Retreat (1 or 2 days).

Short on time? The 1 Day Psilocybin Group Retreat is our most compact format.

Still Have Questions?

Our team is here to address any specific concerns or questions you may have about the retreat experience. We believe informed participants have the best outcomes.
