Usha Village Traveling Tips & Advice

NOTE: For the most up to date information follow up with Usha Village directly to confirm all details as this is only a quick checklist and is not fully inclusive.  You can also reach out to Saama Bowman, Dr. Sebi’s daughter, who runs the village and L.A. office, on Facebook as well.  drsebiscellfood.com is another resource.

First Steps:

1. Obtain a passport.
   • Before you can travel internationally, you’ll need to get a passport.  It takes 4-6 weeks to process the application, unless you pay or qualify to expedite it.  Be sure to keep this time frame in mind while completing the next tip.
2. Check for availability at Usha Village for your desired travel dates.
   • Reach out to Usha Village to confirm room availability for the dates you’d like to stay.  You can email them at: ushavillagehn@gmail.com
   • USHA VILLAGE INFORMATION:

3. Book flights to La Ceiba (not included in cost of Usha Village stay).
   • This part requires some research to find the best option as there are three airports you can check for traveling to Usha Village.
     • La Ceiba: LCE : closest airport to the village;
     • Roatan: RTB : you’d need to travel from this island via ferry to La Ceiba, on one of two trips they complete daily.  Missing the connection may result in an overnight stay so keep this in mind when booking.  Also you’ll need allow for transfers from the airport to the ferry and then from the ferry to the village.  Coordinate pickup through Usha Village.
     • San Pedro Sula: SAP : includes a 3 hour drive from airport to the village.  Coordinate the transfer through Usha Village. (We used this option.)
4. Check with Usha Village to confirms the rates for a companion traveler.  One is needed depending on your illness, which is covered when you’re completing their intake form.  The last quote I’m aware of is $75 per day (not including herbs).
5. WiFi is available at the village.

Our Experience

As I mentioned above, it took a lot for us to make it to Dr. Sebi’s Usha Village.  This was because it was more economical for us to drive five hours down to Miami, FL.  So, we drove down the night before our flight to Honduras and stayed overnight.  The next day was a long one, counting the day at the airport, flight and international requirements of customs.  

Since we coordinated our travel through the Facebook group I linked to above, it was nice as we linked up with our group when we arrived at SAP airport.  From there we took the scenic route to the village and it was absolutely beautiful to take in all of the wonderful sights of Honduras.  We were very tired when we arrived but it was well worth it.  We hope to do it again one day soon with the family!
