Beyond tourism, Reciprocity
The Amazon is visited by many. Few are truly met by it.
For the discerning traveler, a journey must be more than luxury—it must be meaningful. Unlike standard tourism, our retreats are co-created with forest guardians, ensuring your journey is rooted in reciprocity and authentic ancestral knowledge. Your investment secures not just a safe, high-quality experience, but a direct contribution to the long-term well-being of the Amazon.
Exclusive Amazon Journeys
Each journey is a carefully held immersion into the Amazon — guided by Indigenous wisdom, ceremonial presence, and a slow, intentional rhythm designed for deep transformation.
These are not retreats. They are returns.
What Our Clients Discover in the Forest
"This trip is impossible to sum up. The variety and sheer amount of stunning, unforgettable moments on this trip is staggering. Each and everyday there were countless 'Oh wow's and disbelief we were able to share in the beauty and community of the Amazon... This was the trip of a lifetime."
Alexander Calvert, Hollywood Actor
The INSamaúma Distinction
Maíra Irigaray:
Your Bridge Between Worlds
Maíra is not simply a host, but a bridge—connecting ancestral wisdom with the demands of contemporary life. With a PhD in Geography and over 20 years of experience walking alongside Indigenous communities as a lawyer and activist, her expertise ensures your journey is held with safety, discernment, and deep responsibility. Her role is to hold the container so the forest can meet you safely and meaningfully.
Transformation That Creates a Legacy
For our high-end clientele, giving back is the foundation of the experience. Every journey you take with INSamaúma directly supports Indigenous-led initiatives and long-term reciprocity. Your participation contributes to local communities life, land and self-determination. Often it also contributes to specific projects such as the construction of the Tupinambá Casa de Medicina—a sacred space for healing and the transmission of ancestral knowledge, and a medicine facility at the Munduruku of Bragança land.
Your Transformative Journey
Choose your path
We offer two distinct paths to meet the forest, both rooted in the same ethical commitment. While our journeys are primarily women-centered, we welcome aligned men by invitation to specific immersions.
