DAY01

Uros & Taquile Full Day (Lake Titicaca – Puno)

At 07:00 a.m. we pick you up from your hotel in Puno and transfer to the pier to board a fast motorboat to explore majestic Lake Titicaca. Our first stop is the Uros Floating Islands, about 30 minutes by boat, where you’ll learn about the community’s lifestyle and traditions. For approximately one hour, your guide explains their history, customs, and how the islands and homes are built with totora reeds. You’ll also have time to walk around, take photos, and watch artisan demonstrations. Then we continue sailing to Taquile Island on a journey of around 2 hours. On Taquile, we do an approximately 1-hour walk along moderate, mostly flat trails, visiting local families and learning about their living culture. The visit concludes with a tourist lunch on the island. Between 4:00 and 4:30 p.m. we return to Puno and transfer you back to your hotel.
