From July 25 – August 1, 2026, our fully booked community embarked on an extraordinary 8-day adventure into the heart of the Andes to awaken ancient wisdom through Peru’s megalithic wonders.

Key highlights of this expedition:

• A guided pilgrimage through the legendary citadel of Machu Picchu
• A full-day trek to the breathtaking vistas of Rainbow Mountain
• Explorations of sacred portals, Inka heritage sites, and megalithic temples

Hosted by Alejandro and Elena, the journey began in Cusco with private walking tours of the Temple of the Sun (Qoricancha) and the Inka Museum. The group then transitioned into the Sacred Valley to study the profound ancient engineering at Pisac, the salt mines of Maras, and the agricultural terraces of Moray.

The itinerary blended deep spiritual exploration with vibrant local culture, featuring visits to the massive megalithic stones of Sacsayhuaman, encounters with native alpacas and llamas at a local Inka market, and a quiet moment of connection at the sacred portal of Ñaupa Iglesia.

The journey concluded with a scenic Vistadome train ride to Aguas Calientes before entering Machu Picchu. Registered travelers enjoyed premium, hand-picked accommodations throughout the region, including Casa Andina Premium, Taypikala Valle Sagrado Deluxe, and El Mapi Hotel.

In October 2025, our community gathered for an expedition through Turkey’s ancient portals, exploring the intersection of spiritual tradition and ancient technological wisdom.

Key archaeological and sacred sites visited:

• Göbekli Tepe, the world’s oldest known temple complex
• The subterranean networks, Zelve Valley, and cave dwellings of Cappadocia
• The historic city of Harran and the sacred sites of Şanlıurfa

Hosted by Elena and Alejandro alongside premier local guide Pinar (renowned for her work with Rick Steves), the itinerary began in Istanbul. The group explored the layered histories of Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque before navigating a private Bosphorus cruise spanning the European and Asian sides of the city.

The journey then moved deep into southeastern Turkey. Travelers studied the 12,000-year-old megaliths of Göbeklitepe, visited the traditional birthplace of Abraham, experienced a traditional Sıra Gecesi (Turkish Night Show) in Urfa, and viewed the Roman mosaics housed at the Gaziantep Zeugma Museum.

The expedition concluded in Central Anatolia with an immersion into the Göreme Open-Air Museum, an optional hot air balloon sunrise tour, an optional Whirling Dervishes performance at the historic Saruhan caravanserai, and a multi-night stay at the Utopia Cave Hotel.

In February 2024, our community embarked on a profound higher consciousness activation experience across Egypt, journeying through the ancient past to awaken advanced spiritual and technological knowledge.

Key highlights of this sacred pilgrimage:

• An exclusive, private visit inside the Great Pyramid on the Giza Plateau
• A private, after-hours exploration of the Hathor Temple at Dendera
• A multi-day Nile cruise connecting with the ancient healing energies of the land

Hosted by Elena Bensonoff, Alejandro Ferradas, and expert guide Mohamed Ibrahim, this immersive journey was designed to harmonize body, mind, and soul while exploring the origins of humanity. The expedition included illuminating talks, focused meditations, and pure bliss frequency work right within the energy fields of ancient temples and tombs.

Travelers explored Egypt's most significant historical sites, including the unfinished Obelisk in Aswan, Philae Island's Isis Temple, and the magnificent temples of Kom-Ombo, Edfu, and Karnak—including a dedicated visit to the sacred Chapel of the 7 Gates.

The journey concluded with deep studies on the West Bank of Luxor at Deir El-Medina and the Ramesseum before returning to Cairo. Throughout the experience, the group enjoyed premium 5-star accommodations, including the historic Marriott Mena House right beside the pyramids, and an optional sunrise hot air balloon ride over Luxor.

Our community gathered in the heart of the Balkans for the Conscious Heart Activation Event—an immersive, 7-day body, mind, and soul-expanding exploration of the Bosnian Valley of the Pyramids and Herzegovina.

Key highlights of this transformative gathering:

• Deep meditation sessions inside the prehistoric Underground Labyrinth Ravne
• Explorations of the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, the Vratnica Tumulus, and the Stone Spheres Park
• A full-day excursion through Herzegovina, including Mostar, Kravica Waterfalls, and the Buna Spring Sufi Shrine

Hosted by Elena Bensonoff and Alejandro Ferradas, this journey combined intentional energetic work with field research. The group was guided directly by world-renowned ancient civilization researcher Dr. Sam Osmanagich, who introduced the scientific, energetic, and healing dimensions of the active archaeological dig sites.

The itinerary emphasized a unique kind of luxury—connecting directly to the raw purity of the land. Days were filled with group workshops, focused meditations at the summits of ancient structures, and organic, farm-to-table meals prepared daily by the local community within Park Ravne 2.

The pilgrimage seamlessly paired ancient history with local culture, taking the international soul family from the medieval castle of Vranduk to the historic streets of Sarajevo Old Town, concluding with a memorable farewell celebration in the Bosnian valley.

Its beautiful nature, the mysteries of its pyramids and forests, delicious local food and healthy water, the fascinating history of this mountainous country, and the wonderful Bosniak people who supported us everywhere we travelled. A magical and truly unforgettable memory. Thank you Elena, Alejandro and everyone who joined in to co-create this incredible experience."

"This is my second Wholistic trip and it was amazing! Elena really did her homework to create a wonderful experience.

We were greeted and guided through the airport/customs process so smoothly and safely on both arrival and departure. Transportation and temple visits were very well planned and executed. There were also special arrangements and surprises included throughout the trip including private temple showings, opera singing, shopping, guided meditations and a native dancer entertainment experience.

"The flow and ease with this connection was very positive, filled with fun and laughter."

"It is always my expectation to connect with likeminded souls on any retreat. The flow and ease with this connection was very positive, filled with fun and laughter.

"We left this moment in time as One beautifully recognized Divine Heart."

"Thanks to Elena and Alejandro's vision and their motivation to expand consciousness and raise our beautiful humanity and (thus) planetary vibrations, we had the precious opportunity to come together from all over the world where we openly and lovingly shared and experienced each person as a unique but Divine aspect of Self in this amazing high energy land and people that is today Bosnia & Herzegovina. And although there can be no redundancy in the beautifully expanding Mind of God, we left this moment in time as One beautifully recognized Divine Heart. From this experience we further awaken to who we really are - our true history and all of the ancient mysteries still being revealed today. Eternal thanks Elena and Alejandro for this wonderful opportunity to unite body, mind, and soul and most especially as One Human Collective seeking to expand consciousness. With special deep gratitude as well to Dr. Sam for his vision of humanity, his dedication to the history of the cosmos, and for bringing it forward and freely for all. To Ajdin our incredibly knowledgeable and spiritually minded Guide who was there for us and with through all of Bosnia. To the many local people who welcomed us, hosted us, drove us, and fed us so lovingly. Our hearts and souls are so full from this beautiful journey, we look forward to sharing this with others next year. With tremendous Love, your Human Family."

"I needn’t have worried, as the energy of the pyramids is incredibly powerful."

"I really came to Bosnia without a lot of expectations. I had only heard of the Bosnian pyramids through Elena and Alejandro’s experience. However, I was nervous as to whether I would be able to feel and recognize the energy there. I needn’t have worried, as the energy of the pyramids is incredibly powerful. It truly does heal and expand your consciousness. I think we were all glowing when we were at the top of the pyramid of the sun! The trip was made even more amazing by all the incredible people that came on this trip. I really enjoyed getting to know each and every one of you. Everyone brought something interesting to the group! Bosnia is a truly magical land and experiencing it with all of you made it even more fantastic."
