It's like you enter a totally different dimension than the one we experience in our daily lives. This dimension is populated with god-like creatures which the experienced user can communicate with. Unexperienced users are usually way too impressed by the enormous amount of overwhelming visions and colors they experience, but when getting used to the "invironment" one can direct it a lot more and start to explore it.
The Mayas and Astekes used it to communicate with their gods, and their art is clearly inspired by those experiences. Shamans still use it to enter a resource for knowledge which can only be gained by this experience.
It's not easy to explain to anyone who has not experienced it, it's like explaining sex to a virgin, they would not really understand untill they have experienced it themselves.
To get back is very simple, as soon as the effects of DMT or Ayahuaska fade out, you get back to your "normal" state of mind.
A DMT experience doesn't last long, 15 minutes to half hour tops, Ayahuaska lasts longer, can be up to 4 - 6 hours.
