Are you ready for the journey of a lifetime? Spend 3 unforgettable days with Matías De Stefano, 10 days with Aymara Elder Jorge Luis, and a rare chance to see the Nasca Mummies.
For 3 days of the tour you will be with Matías De Stefano on this ancient initiatic path to embrace and activate your inherent Yo Soy/I AM presence. Immersed in the sacred energies of the Andean Apus, Matías will guide and "Remember" with you, at the cosmic earth axis gateways of Machu Picchu and Ollantaytambo. These sacred sites have been utilized as portals to awakening, far longer than imagination can stretch back in time.
For the duration of the tour you will be in excellent hands with our dedicated guide. Jorge Luis Delgado, descendant of the Incas and Aymara native culture is a Chakaruna. For 30 years his award-winning tour company has been leading people on memorable journeys to sacred sites. We will be staying at his Taypikala Hotels located in stunning Andean power spots.
Greet the morning sun amongst the glorious vistas of Machu Picchu one of the new 7 wonders of the world. A well kept secret by the Quechua people of the region and hidden from the world for centuries. Archaeologist Hiram Bingham led by an 11 year old boy saw the ancient city for the first time in 1911 and world wide attention was brought to this magnificent feat of architecture indicating the presence of an advanced civilization.
We will have a special private visit to see and learn about the mysteries of the anomalous humanoid mummies discovered in the desert near Nazca Peru. Leading researchers exploring the mysteries, say the Nazca Mummies may be the greatest scientific discovery of our time.
Caral is thought to be one of the oldest known cities in the Western Hemisphere. The Caral civilization was pre-Columbian. It remains a mystery as to why the city was abandoned.
One of the largest Pyramids in the complex is known as the Pirámide Mayor and is almost 100 feet tall and is considered to be as old as the Egyptian pyramids.
Amaru Muru also known as “Hayu Marca or Willka Uta: “Place of the sun or gate of the gods.” This magnanimous rock structure is surrounded by mystery and ancient legends. A stunning doorway is carved into the ancient rock wall and faces east, toward Lake Titicaca, the Island of the Sun in Bolivia and the distant, sacred snow-capped mountains.
Machu Picchu, one of the most famous ancient sites in the world (and a UNESCO World Heritage site), is often referred to as “The Lost City of the Incas” and is one of the “New Seven Wonders of the Ancient World”. Machu Picchu is a citadel located on a mountain ridge at an altitude of nearly 8,000 feet. According to conventional archaeological dating, the site was built and occupied by the Incas between around 1420 to 1532, and subsequently abandoned (perhaps due to disease decimating the population). Apparently, the Spanish of the late 16th century were aware of Machu Picchu, and may have even visited it, but later the location of the site was lost for over four centuries, until it was discovered by the Peruvian explorer Agustín Lizárraga Ruiz in 1902 and rediscovered by the American Yale University professor Hiram Bingham in 1911.
Machu Picchu is a site of stunning beauty and complexity. While many traditional archaeologists assert that the site was built primarily by the Inca emperor Pachacuti around 1450, there is evidence, which Dr. Schoch will point out, of different stages of construction, the earliest of which may go back to a much earlier, pre-Inca, period. How far back in times does this site go? We will walk among the approximately 200 stone buildings that compose the city remains and note the terraces and sophisticated water channel system that the ancient people employed. We will visit the Temple of the Sun, the Room of the Three Windows, and the Inti Watana (The Hitching Post of the Sun) that is believed to have been used as a precise astronomical calendar or clock in ancient times. We will also note that despite over a hundred years of modern archaeological investigation, new discoveries continue to be made at Machu Picchu.
Saqsaywaman (Sacsayhuamán, Saksaywaman; in Quechua, aksay waman pukara which can be translated as “fortress [or citadel] of the royal hawk [or falcon]”) is located on the northern boundary of Cusco atop a hill overlooking the city. The structures are dated by conventional archaeologists to the time of the Sapa Inca Pachacuti (reigned 1438—1471). The walls found here are composed of tightly fitted enormous stone blocks that in some cases have the appearance of being “melted” or “vitrified”. Dr. Schoch does not doubt that Saqsaywaman may have been utilized, and possibly rebuilt, by the Inca people during the 15th century; however, its origins may go back to a much earlier period, and how it was constructed remains a mystery.
Pisac is a town in the Sacred Valley that goes back to ancient Incan times and earlier. Today it is known for maintaining the traditional indigenous culture, and for its famous Andean market.
Jorge Luis is a chakaruna embodying the wisdom of light of the Inka and Aymara culture which is very profound. In practice this makes the visit to each power place not only have a physical dimension, but transcends, so that people can experience other planes of manifestation, other deep and further dimensions.
Jorge reactivates the profound solar code within each soul, translating it into the principles of love, service, and wisdom—expressed through Munay (love), Llankay (service), and Yachay (wisdom). A beacon of light, Jorge is a guide who helps individuals weave the luminous threads emanating from the cosmos into a tapestry that illuminates the path to their hearts.
The Inca tradition has no separation between the physical and spiritual worlds and Jorge Luis Delgado is an expert at walking the path between both worlds.He received his early training from the Kallawaya shamans of the NE Lake Titicaca region, the lineage of the Wise Ones of the Andes, and from the Qero elders of Cusco, who are the last remaining tribal descendants of the Incas.
Jorge Luis brought to public attention the Aramu Muru Doorway, an inter-dimensional portal located in the Hayu Marca mountains. On the History Channel, he is featured in more than ten episodes of Ancient Aliens. We are honored to be journeying with a guide who has this caliber of knowledge and wisdom.
Matías De Stefano is a Consciousness Educator, who many know as the "Rememberer".
Matías De Stefano’s personal journey to reconnect the consciousness of the planet began at a young age as he started remembering past lives in Atlantis and recording his memories in childhood drawings. As an Indigo child, he developed a close relationship with his spirit guides who helped him make sense of these memories and connect with the natural world to uncover his mission.
De Stefano began his YOSOY global journey in 2020, anchoring the world axis between the North and South Poles and generating a worldwide consciousness movement to help people recognize humanity’s purpose on Earth. He is currently developing RECORDIS, an online university that aims to spread the message of a conscious society based on the philosophy he calls Ontocracy.
He is the founder of Arsayian Foundation, a non-profit that supports projects and social movements related to consciousness. De Stefano, who was born in Venado Tuerto, Argentina, began transmitting his unique understanding of reality to wide audiences at the age of 21. In 2018, he was featured in the National Geographic documentary The Rememberer.
