"A fascinating, educational and unique insight into Venezuelan culture. Excellent opportunity to experience non commercialized, genuine practice of spiritual beliefs that are truly incredible to the outsider". Chris White, Australia .
"A highlight of our journey. What we experienced in the Holy Mountain was as far away from western culture as it gets. Rituals to stop the rain, people in trance, beautiful nature, really amazing!. A witch predicted our future by reading the snails and the cigar smoke! Thomas Johansson & Lena Uddefall , Sweden. |
