I'm a different person since my trip with Peruvian Magic Journeys. There has been a major shift occurring within my psyche. I know I'll always have the ambience of Peru resonating in my heart for the rest of my life. Romulo and Ruben were always gracious and consistently helpful with everything from hotel accommodations, airport red tape and procedures, handing us tickets at every Inca ruin and educating us about their native Inca culture. I appreciated their genuine concern for everyone in our group and the pride they both had for their heritage. It was astonishing to watch both Romulo and Ruben heal people with the slightest problems from altitude sickness to a sprained ankle with their Shaman gifts and faith.
I want to return to Peru someday and the Peruvian Magic Journeys will be my first phone call when I make my travel arrangements. Thank you for the trip of a lifetime and the discovery of exciting emotional and intellectual depths I never knew existed.

Dear Romulo:
This trip has affected me more profoundly than any other. Already I am planning to spend six months in Cusco and the sacred valley with the excuse of learning to speak Spanish.Your gentle and wise leadership 'herding cats' each with their own desires and agendas, was masterful to watch. I greatly appreciated Rubens twinkle; profound archeological knowledge, and his shamanic nature made this a magical internal journey. I continue to hold these major transformational shifts and feel like a neo-shaman wearing my three large Peruvian crystals day and night. It was so wonderful to just 'be', knowing that YOU and Ruben were handling all of the logistics.
Much Love

I traveled to Peru with Romulo Castilla of Peruvian Magic Journeys as our guide in September of 2005. Traveling with a group of 30 people from all over the US, I was sure could be challenging. With Romulo as our fearless guide, the trip proceeded so smoothly and marvelously that it was a wonder to behold. The entire group, including Romulo and our shaman "p'aco" guide Ruben, even our bus driver Dante, felt like a great family.
The great thing about traveling with Peruvian Magic Journeys was that I never had to worry about where to go, what to do, where to sleep, how to get there, where to eat……absolutely everything was taken care of, and throughout the entire trip there was not a shadow of worry or doubt, for I saw we were in ever capable hands, and were treated consistently to the finest accommodations.
One of my favorite parts of the trip was looking around at other tourist groups and hearing what their experiences were like, or witnessing what kind of information they were getting on different historical sites, and feeling so honored that our group’s experience, through the help, knowledge, and foresight of Ruben and Romulo, seemed so much more real and enriched.
Peru being a trip that everyone needs to take in their lifetime, I would not hesitate to offer my highest applaud and recommendation to Romulo Castilla’s Peruvian Magic Journeys and all of his wonderful contacts and resources. This was the most life-changing, evolutionary and heartfelt experience of my lifetime, and Romulo’s patience, creativity and expertise made this possible! Thank you for being there for us Romulo!
Much Love.
