What You Pay For
Cost: the essentials, a checklist to keep and the sources.
Programs
The seven-, ten- and fourteen-day programs start on the same arrival dates. Longer programs add ceremonies and processing days, not price per day.
| Program | Shared room | Private room | Ceremonies |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seven-day psycho-spiritual retreat | $5,800 | $6,500 | 2 |
| Ten-day psycho-spiritual retreat | $8,300 | $9,300 | 3 |
| Fourteen-day psycho-spiritual retreat | $11,600 | $13,000 | 3 or 4 |
| Medical detox supplement, any program | Private only | +$600 to $800 per day | Three to five days, typically $1,800 to $4,000, decided case by case after screening |
Prices are per person. Couples and friends who apply together take a private room each or a shared room together. The ten-day psycho-spiritual price is confirmed at booking. When medical detox is required, the physician sets the number of detox days after screening and the supplement is confirmed in writing before payment.
Included
US medical pre-screening, medical interpretation of your blood work (CBC, CMP, serum magnesium, liver panel) and 12-lead ECG, full intake and daily vitals on site, a physician 24/7, electrolyte and magnesium IVs when needed.
A discovery call with a Bwiti House graduate with more than fifteen years of experience, the traditional iboga ceremonies, the spiritual shower and other cleansing rituals as the practitioner sees fit, grounding practices and guidance between ceremonies.
Pick-up and drop-off at Cancún airport, the room you chose in the jungle, the pool, the gardens and the meditation spaces.
Daily meals prepared at the center by our cooks, water, fruit and light food on ceremony days.
One preparation call before, four integration calls over three months after, and the medical team and psychologist reachable throughout.
Flights, travel and cancellation insurance, the laboratory tests and ECG before travel (done with your own doctor or lab), personal expenses, and any medication you bring. Alumni calls beyond the program are $100 an hour.
Why it costs this
A ceremony with a physician in the room all night, for eight people, costs what it costs. This is what you are paying for.
A physician on site for the whole retreat, cardiac telemetry during every ceremony, IV access placed before any dose, a hospital twenty minutes away. This is the largest single cost, and the one we will never cut.
Our providers are graduates of the Bwiti House Training Program, with more than fifteen years of practice for our senior practitioner. They are present at every ceremony, every fire talk, every life review.
Small groups mean the practitioners know your story and the medical team knows your vitals. It also means fewer people share the cost of the team.
Most retreats end at the airport. Ours ends three months later, after four integration calls and a data review against your baseline.

Airport transfers, onboarding from first call to departure, administration and payment fees.
A cook and fresh meals for guests and team, special diets, and the light meals of the processing days.
Four integration calls on Zoom per guest, the psychologist's time and the review of your data against your baseline.

Compared
Ibogaine clinics in Mexico publicly list seven- to ten-day programs between roughly $7,000 and $15,000, sometimes more for detox. They administer extracted ibogaine in a clinical room; there is no ceremony, no tradition, and the follow-up is often optional. We sit in the same price range with a different offer: the whole root, given the Bwiti way, with the same medical safeguards and the follow-up built in.

Payment
Your journey, step by step
8. Retreat and three monthsYour retreat, then four integration calls on Zoom over three months, included.
Nothing to pay to apply or for the discovery call. After the call, a USD 500 deposit holds your place and opens your health assessment. It is refunded in full if our medical team cannot clear you.
Payments are in US dollars, by the secure card link we send or by bank transfer. Bank charges and currency conversion are yours.
Once you are approved, the proforma invoice gives the balance, due one month before arrival (two weeks for bookings made less than a month ahead). If it has not arrived by then, the deposit is forfeited and the place released.
Apart from the deposit refunded when we cannot clear you, payments are final, as stated in our terms and conditions. Bookings are not transferable. Please take out travel and cancellation insurance.
Questions about money
Yes, USD 500, asked after the discovery call. It holds your place and opens your health assessment, and it is refunded in full if our medical team cannot clear you. Applying and the discovery call are free.
In two steps: the USD 500 deposit, then the balance one month before arrival (two weeks for bookings made less than a month ahead). If timing is a problem, say so on the discovery call; a later retreat date is often the answer.
No. Iboga is not an approved treatment and the retreat is paid privately. We do write a summary for your physician or therapist at home if you ask.
If our medical team cannot clear you, the deposit is refunded in full. The balance is only asked once you are approved. If something you had not disclosed comes up after payment and makes the program unsafe, the exclusion is without refund, as the terms state. Tell us everything before.
Yes. There is no seasonal pricing and no negotiated rate. The only differences are the program length and the room.
